How do you know if you are recovering from paraplegia?

Life is full of ups and downs. Some people become paraplegic due to accidents. I believe most people have heard of paraplegia. This disease is not as terrible as we imagine, nor is it difficult to treat, but it is not incurable. Of course, the severity of each paraplegia patient will be different, but I believe that as long as timely treatment and persistence are given, paraplegia may still be able to recover. So how do you know that paraplegia is recovering? Let's learn more about it. Paraplegia is mostly caused by spinal cord injury, which causes paralysis of the limbs below the injury plane, manifested as loss of limb muscle strength, inability to move at all, or reduced muscle strength and weak mobility. If these symptoms improve after treatment and the strength of limb movement increases, it means recovery.

Treatments for paraplegia mainly include:

1. Daily treatment mainly involves some daily life and occupational labor movements to enable patients with high paraplegia to adapt to their personal and family life after discharge from hospital.

2. Psychotherapy is to provide psychological counseling for patients at different stages. It is necessary to eliminate the patient's negative emotions such as denial, anger and depression, which will be more conducive to the recovery of the disease.

3. Physical therapy is to improve the movement of all joints in the body and strengthen the remaining muscle strength. After that, balance and coordination movements, body position exchange and transfer movements should be performed to improve the patient's physical condition.

4. Clinical rehabilitation is to prevent the occurrence of various complications through the application of nursing and medication. When necessary, some therapeutic clinical treatments can also be carried out to alleviate symptoms while promoting functional recovery.

5. Muscle and joint exercise method. Depending on the degree of paralysis of the patient, passive muscle movements below the paralysis plane can be performed every day. Massage or acupuncture and other combined treatments can also be performed. This can effectively promote blood circulation while maintaining joint flexibility and preventing joint sclerosis and stiffness. From the above content, you should believe that high paraplegia may still be cured, but this may be a relatively long process. It requires the patient to build up confidence in curing the disease after becoming ill, actively cooperate with the treatment, and during this period, a reasonable diet should be formulated, which can promote the recovery of the disease.
