Paralysis of both hands needs to identify the cause, there is no “best treatment”; it may be physiological or pathological; physiological causes need to adjust the lifestyle, pathological causes need to be under the guidance of the doctor to carry out targeted treatment, such as medication, surgery and so on.
1. Physiological causes of hands to maintain the same position for a long time, such as a long time to grasp the steering wheel, lifting heavy objects, etc., may cause transient paralysis of the hands, generally through rest can be relieved, without special treatment.
2. Pathological causes
(1) Neurogenic cervical spondylosis can cause radiating pain or numbness in the upper limbs (paroxysmal or persistent); commonly used drugs include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen, muscle relaxants such as epirubicin, and nutritive drugs such as methylcobalamin; surgical treatment needs to be considered when necessary.
(2) Multiple peripheral neuritis can cause paresthesia of both hands, and gradually there can be symmetrical loss or disappearance of superficial sensation of the limbs; commonly used drugs include nutritive nerve drugs such as methylvitamin B12 and calcium channel modulators such as gabapentin.
Paralysis of both hands may also be caused by other factors, when the symptoms of paralysis is obvious, if the adjustment of lifestyle is not obvious, we should go to the hospital in time to clarify the cause of the disease, and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
