3-Year-Old Walks for First Time, Courtesy CMCH's Prosthetic Leg
The New Indian Express Coimbatore
|May 15, 2025
In a remarkable milestone in public healthcare, three-year-old Rishwanth from Sokkanur village in Kinathukadavu taluk has taken his first independent steps, thanks to a custom-fitted, lightweight prosthetic leg provided free of cost by the Coimbatore Medical College Hospital (CMCH) under the Chief Minister's Comprehensive Health Insurance Scheme.
Born with congenital deformities in both legs, Rishwanth's right leg had to be amputated below the knee. After surgery, he was admitted to the Department of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine at CMCH, where he was given a prosthetic leg tailored to his measurements and walking needs. Rishwanth is the youngest beneficiary in Tamil Nadu to receive such advanced prosthetic support.
