Patient's question:
A colleague said that her mother has been feeling discomfort in her legs recently. Yesterday, the colleague took her to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was muscle atrophy in the right thigh. The colleague doesn't know what to do and wants to ask the doctor how to treat muscle atrophy in the right thigh.Doctor's answer:
Various methods such as acupuncture, massage, and traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conditioning. Muscle atrophy requires rehabilitation training, but it is essential to control the exercise intensity to avoid overexertion. Excessive exercise can deplete nutrients without adequate replenishment, leading to persistent muscle fatigue. Through excessive supplementation, muscles can gradually and fully recover. Muscle atrophy refers to the enlargement of muscle volume caused by nutritional deficiencies in skeletal muscle, muscle fiber thinning, or even disappearance.
