Can physiotherapy help regain sensation after spinal cord injury?

Patient's Query

My sister had a RTA last year in which she had a paraplegic spinal cord injury,she is doing physiotherapy since one year still can't walk without calipers,has no sensation,she is 20 years old

Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

A spinal cord issue such as hers might result in weakness of stepping and the absence of the sense of touch. It occurs when the spinal cord sustains damage, generally from events such as a car ramming into it. Exercise makes muscles stronger, but full recovery might not be attained.

I have severe headache I think it's tmj headache and not bearable.

Female | 23

Severe headaches that feel related to TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues can be distressing. It's important to consult a dentist or a specialist in oral and maxillofacial medicine for proper evaluation and treatment. They can assess if TMJ dysfunction is causing your headaches and recommend appropriate therapies or referrals for further management.

It is always best to consult with her doctor to see what's the best course of action is for her. However, medications such as oxybutynin, tolterodine, and solifenacin may be effective in treating urinary incontinence. Additionally, physical therapy and pelvic floor exercises may help improve her walking and bladder control.

Dear Drs, I hope this message finds you well. My name is Kamilia Ghoul, and I am reaching out to you on behalf of my father, who is currently suffering from advanced Parkinson's disease. He is 79 years old and has reached stage 5 of the condition. We are located in Tunis, and the need for specialized medical care has become imperative. In light of his situation, we are urgently seeking a hospital that can provide the comprehensive treatment he requires. It is critical that the facility we choose has the expertise and resources necessary to address his mobility issues and to improve his quality of life as much as possible. I am requesting your professional guidance to identify the best hospital that offers advanced care for Parkinson's patients at this stage of the disease. Your expertise in the field would be immensely helpful in ensuring that my father receives the best possible treatment. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations you may have or assistance in facilitating a referral, if possible. Please let me know if there are any specific procedures or information required to proceed. I am ready to provide any relevant medical records or documentation needed for evaluation. Thank you for your help and consideration in this urgent matter. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely, Kamilia Ghoul 00974 50705591

When Parkinson's is this far along, it's a good idea to ge­t care at a special hospital. The hospital can help manage­ your dad's symptoms. He might benefit from physical the­rapy to stay as active as possible. The doctors may change­ his medications or consider surgery to he­lp him feel bette­r. Before going to the hospital, gather all your dad's medical records. Write­ down notes about how he's bee­n doing lately. This information will help the doctors unde­rstand his situation and make a good treatment plan just for him.
