Is massage helpful for muscle atrophy?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello! My father's muscles have been slowly swelling this year. I want to understand if massage therapy is helpful for muscle atrophy.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your information, the patient is most likely suffering from muscle atrophy. For patients with muscle atrophy, it is recommended to take oral neurotrophic drugs for symptomatic treatment. In clinical diagnosis, choline bitartrate tablets and vitamins B1, B2, and C are commonly used for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, it is advisable to combine massage therapy, which can achieve better therapeutic effects. Massage has a good therapeutic effect on muscle atrophy.
