Abstract

Multisite pain remains significantly understudied following lower-limb loss (LLL), especially among females. This study aimed to explore sex-specific differences in the presentation of multisite pain post-LLL. Hypotheses were multisite pain would be more prevalent among females post-LLL as compared to males, and female sex would be significantly associated with multisite pain prevalence.
