Q. Is there any effective way to cure hemiplegia? I have been suffering from depression disorder and scared to go outside. Also, I have a shortness of breath, and it gets worse I am not taking any medication for hemiplegia.
Doctor Answer is medically reviewed by SecondMedic medical review team.
While hemiplegia is a difficult condition to treat, there are some effective ways to help manage symptoms. One approach is physical therapy, which can help improve range of motion and muscle strength in affected limbs. Exercises that focus on stretching and strengthening the muscles can be beneficial over time. Additionally, occupational therapy may help with learning new methods of movement, as well as training with adaptive equipment such as wheelchairs or walkers.
In addition to physical and occupational therapies, medications have also been used successfully in some cases. Medications often prescribed for hemiplegia include anticonvulsants to control seizures or spasticity; hypnotics or tranquilizers to relax the body; muscle relaxants for improved circulation and reduced spasms; antidepressants for psychological support; anti-inflammatory drugs for pain management; vitamins B6 and E for nerve health; and baclofen/diazepam combination injections into the spinal cord that may reduce spasticity over time (depending on how severe it is).
Finally, while no medication should be taken without consulting a licensed physician first, lifestyle changes have also been known to help relieve depression disorder related symptoms including shortness of breath. These changes could include mindfulness activities like yoga or meditation (or activities like journaling) that focus on calming the mind & body by reducing stressors such as worrying about disease progression or social situations outside of one’s comfort zone. Additionally modifying diet habits with healthy foods rich in vitamins & minerals can provide important nourishment our bodies need during times of distress - these nutrients play a vital role in regulating our moods & energy levels throughout the day!
