Researchers have made significant medical advancements in the treatment of lower-limb amputees and those suffering from herniated discs. The University of Pittsburgh demonstrated reduced pain and improved balance in three lower-limb amputees using electrical stimulation. Additionally, a collaborative team from Duke University and Harvard Medical School announced a groundbreaking technology for performing 3D printing within the human body. This innovative development harnesses the body's natural motion to release an anti-inflammatory molecule called anakinra from microcapsules, offering hope to those suffering from herniated discs. Spinal cord stimulation has been shown to reduce pain and improve balance in people with lower limb amputation, and it also restores missing foot sensation and reduces phantom pain. These advancements in prosthetic technology and medical treatment could transform the lives of millions with lower-limb amputations.
