FAQ
Q: 1. What is the core difference between handcuffs and leg irons?
A: They serve different functions.
• Handcuffs: The core function is to control movement and prevent aggression. They restrict the hands, preventing attacking others, self-harm, use of tools, or escape by climbing.
• Leg irons: The core function is to deprive freedom of movement. They restrict the feet, completely eliminating the ability to run, jump, and kick forcefully.
Handcuffs are about "control," leg irons are about "restraint."
Q: 2. What specific health risks might prolonged use of leg irons pose?
A: In addition to common skin abrasion and circulatory problems, the following risks exist:
• Peroneal nerve damage: If the upper edge of the leg iron presses directly on the fibular head below the knee, it may damage the peroneal nerve, leading to foot drop (the inability to lift the foot).
• Thrombotic risk: Extreme restriction of activity, especially prolonged sitting during long-distance transport, may increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremities.
• Muscle atrophy and joint stiffness: Long-term use of short-chain leg irons can lead to decreased range of motion in the calf muscles and ankle joints.
Therefore, any prolonged restraint must be interspersed with regular, monitored activity periods.
