During the 18th & 19th Century, medicine had not progressed very far. Even with the medical care that was available inland, a pirate or any sailor might be injured while days or weeks out to sea. By the time they could get to help, a life threatening infection had plenty of time to set it. If someone lost a leg, they had to use a wooden crutch. If they lost the lower half of the leg, they could be fitted with a wooden stump. That was all they had.
they walk like normal human beings
Peg Kehret has gone to court before
you buy him an eyepatch a parrot a ship and cannons hire a crew saw of his leg and give him a peg leg and voila you have a pirate bf
they go home. modern pirates in countries such as Somalia are more like mercenaries than the pirates you see on tv and if they're injured they can't do their jobs and so they go quit or probaly get fired old fashioned pirates would never have really have had wooden legs and hook hands. but sometimes on a long journey on the open seas a pirates injured leg or arm would have to be amputated to stop it going sceptic and developing other problems, so some of them may have had wooden legs after that.
