Joint stiffness, muscle atrophy - what to do?

Patient's question:

My husband had a stroke last year and then collapsed. He has been missing as a quality inspector. Recently, the weather has been a bit cold, and his joints are deformed and stiff, with severe muscle atrophy. Suddenly like this, I don't know if his condition has worsened. I am very worried. How do doctors treat joint deformation and stiffness, severe muscle atrophy in paralyzed patients?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for patients with collapse, severe joint deformation and stiffness, and muscle atrophy, there is currently no particularly effective treatment. We can only adopt symptomatic treatment methods by combining some symptoms of the patient. Therefore, if the condition is severe, it is better to go to the hospital for relevant and thorough examinations, and then implement corresponding treatments. During daily life, attention should be paid to cleanliness and hygiene.
