A prosthetic leg typically lasts between 3 to 5 years, depending on factors such as the materials used, the wear and tear from daily use, and the activity level of the user. Regular maintenance and adjustments can extend its lifespan. Additionally, advancements in technology and materials may lead to longer-lasting options in the future.
