Cerebral hemorrhage upper limb dystonia does massage help?

Massage for hypertonia within the upper extremities of a brain hemorrhage can be useful. Hypertonia in the upper extremity of a brain hemorrhage is caused by damage to the upper motor neurons and can manifest as hard paralysis. In addition to hypertonia, patients also exhibit weakness on this side of the limb. Massage and hot compresses can be applied to the limb, which can help relieve the spasm of the muscle and reduce the muscle tension. Rehabilitation exercises for limb function should also be actively carried out, including functional positioning of the limb and passive movements, including moving the large joints of the limb and massaging the muscles from the acute stage of the disease. After the disease is stabilized, flexion and extension exercises of the affected limbs can also be carried out. The earlier the rehabilitation of limb function is carried out, the better the results will be, and the increase in muscle tone can often be effectively improved. If the muscle tension is too high, you can also consider taking medication such as baclofen to reduce the muscle tension. It is recommended that patients with cerebral hemorrhage who have high internal tension in the upper extremities undergo rehabilitation under the guidance of a medical professional or rehabilitation therapist.
