High muscle tone after cerebral hemorrhage can be relieved through the use of physical therapy, medication, and rehabilitation exercises.
When cerebral hemorrhage occurs, hematoma compression damages brain tissues, which can lead to impaired nerve function and dysfunction in controlling muscle tone, resulting in muscle stiffness.
In the early stage of cerebral hemorrhage, active massage can be carried out on the limbs with localized functional limitation, hot compresses can be applied to the localized affected limbs, physiotherapy equipment can be used, or acupuncture can be applied to the affected limbs, etc., to reduce the muscle tension.
When there is a serious increase in muscle tone, you can also follow the doctor’s instructions, the use of muscle relaxation drugs, such as oral baclofen, tizanidine, local injection of botulinum toxin, to reduce muscle tone, relieve limb stiffness.
During the recovery period of cerebral hemorrhage, late rehabilitation exercises can be carried out, through slow activities, stretching joints and muscles, exercising the function of limb muscles and relieving hypertonia.
It is recommended to consult a doctor in time for standardized treatment of hypertonia after cerebral hemorrhage.
