Doctors for Apotemnophilia Treatment in Secunderabad

Apotemnophilia is a rare condition in which a person feels a strong, lasting desire to have a healthy limb removed, often because it feels like it should not be there. The urge is not just a passing thought; it can be intense and upsetting. People with it may seek amputation even when the limb works normally, and it can cause deep distress and confusion.

Apotemnophilia may cause symptoms such as depressive symptoms, anxiety and impaired daily functioning. Depending on the condition and its severity, delayed medical care may result in persistent symptoms, progression of the disease, or related complications.
