Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. How can muscle atrophy be prevented after a fracture?Doctor's answer:
After another fracture occurs, it is necessary to promptly implement symptomatic treatment. During the complete recovery period of the fracture, it is important to pay attention to rest and prevent movement in the affected limb. If this situation occurs again, it may lead to the recurrence of muscle atrophy in the affected limb. After the above situation occurs again, massage and cold compresses can be applied to the muscles of the affected limb during the complete recovery period of the fracture, which can effectively prevent muscle atrophy.
