Patients with hemiplegia can recover ankle function for 6-12 months. Some patients may have foot ptosis for life, but most functional recovery occurs within the first three months. Therefore, we should intervene in rehabilitation nursing as early as possible, take a variety of comprehensive treatment means to improve the function of patients, award its dysfunction to reduce to the minimum limit, targeted choice of intervention measures, to avoid the occurrence of foot ptosis.

Muscle atrophy

Muscular dystrophy is a reduction in muscle size caused by striated muscular dystrophy, thinning or even disappearance of muscle fibers, usually as a result of lower motor neurone disease or myopathy.

Cause of muscular dystrophy

The cause of muscular dystrophy mainly has two kinds, do not exercise or little exercise is first reason leading to muscle contraction, degeneration; malnutrition, bring about muscle tissue protein to be decomposed, cause atrophy.

There are two main reasons for the first one. One is lying in bed after injury, resting muscles for a long time, without the right amount of contraction; The other one is nerve damage that prevents muscles from contracting.

The reason that causes the 2nd kind is nutrient intake inadequacy or nutrient structure imbalance brings about airframe protein supply inadequacy, cause atrophy. If cachexia sex muscle atrophy, sympathetic muscle dystrophy.

Muscle atrophy and muscle strength grading

According to the situation of muscle strength, muscle strength of patients with muscular atrophy is generally divided into the following six levels:

Muscle atrophy level 0 complete paralysis, unable to do anything free impotent.

Grade I complete paralysis. Slight muscle atrophy can be seen during movement, but the body cannot move.

Level II limbs can move parallel on the bed, but cannot be lifted off the bed surface.

Level III limbs can overcome gravity pull and lift off the table.

Level IV limbs can do movement against external resistance.

Class V muscle strength normal, free movement.

Prevention of muscular dystrophy

1. Stay positive and happy.

2, reasonable allocation of diet structure.

3. Combine work and rest.

4, strict prevention of cold, gastroenteritis.

5, physical therapy, increase muscle strength exercise, walking training, warm bath, massage, acupuncture.

6, the application of B vitamins, and B1, B6, B2 combined application.

USA YOBAND prosthetic innovation technology is shared, focusing on financial and material resources, focusing on and producing its own research and development, giving full play to its unique core competitive advantages, and fully integrating global resources with international peers for the benefit of disabled friends! So when selecting a prosthetic company, the amputee who installs prosthetic limbs must investigate on the spot to determine whether the prosthetic company really has a technical team to make a prosthetic receptor cavity. The qualified prosthetic receptor cavity plays a key role in their own comfortable experience and prosthetic walking gait.
