A good rest will make you fully recovered
Stroke patients are often accompanied by physical dysfunction (paralysis), such as hand stiffness, inconvenient walking, and difficulty in completing some daily activities. In order to help them live a better life, the family members of the patients will feed the patients who could have eaten by themselves, and will not let the patients walk or take things by themselves. Over time, patients will become dependent and will not take the initiative to exercise.
It will be better if you take medicine
The patient’s family believes that the patient is already receiving medication, as long as he rests well and does not need rehabilitation training, he can gradually recover on his own.
The above two misunderstandings will cause patients to suffer from disuse syndrome, which refers to patients who have been inactive for a long time or have insufficient activity after a stroke. Due to the decline of the body or local physiological function, osteoporosis, muscle atrophy, and Joint spasms, lung infections, etc., leaving sequelae.
Only exercise the affected side
After a stroke, family members often mislead the patient to train only the affected limb, which is too strong, which will cause severe shoulder subluxation, and will also hinder the patient's recovery of motor control, coordination and fine skills.
Excessive training
Many people think that the harder the exercise, the better, but this will only strengthen the flexor movement, inhibit the extensor movement, and make the upper limbs on the hemiplegic side show a state of flexion and spasm.
Training too early
Some family members and patients are impatient and have a slight ability to move the affected limb, but they cannot wait to start walking or climbing stairs and other intensive training when they do not have the ability to sit or stand alone, causing the patient to walk in circles and tremors.
