Probably should do that. I'm very careful in a sense that I only do exercises that I feel like I'm doing the right way, because not doing so can obviously lead to some unfortunate consequences

As a PT I would refer you to a prosthetist. If you discuss this with your primary care doc they could refer you for evaluation. If you get a custom prosthetic a PT could certainly help with progression of use toward your desired fitness goals.

Unfortunately prosthetists are hard to come by around here

The great thing about physical therapists now is they are doctors and can prescribe a custom prosthetic. If you have insurance it's worth a look.
