When a leg is amputated and becomes infected, the body may experience increased pain, swelling, and redness around the surgical site. The infection can lead to complications such as fever and systemic illness if not treated promptly. In severe cases, it may require additional medical interventions, such as antibiotics or further surgery, to remove infected tissue. Timely medical attention is crucial to prevent the spread of infection and promote proper healing.
