Flexibility the issue
🎉🎉❤
I have been bedridden for almost 2 years now, I couldn't stand up or sit for too long because I have a bedsore on my buttocks. My left leg is too weak and I have a foot drop. What exercises should I do? 😢
Should we wear AFO during these or use strap assist if we can't do dorsaflexion (drop foot not from stroke but severed peroneal nerve and post op)?
Mam my hand finger and leg finger no moment pls tell exercise
Mam can i share my walking video and can pls suggest what exercises i need to do, i had thalamic bleed right brain impacting left limbs in oct 2023.
Stretch excellent 👌
Thank you this is my problem after stroke, ankle spasticity. How often do I do these exercises, is more better?
This is so helpful. That spasticity really gets in the way of so much- glad you mentioned how it affects this.
❤❤ I did a spinal cord surgery and foot drop is affecting my left leg bad. I use Tens machine. What should I do?
Yes I needed that also. My toes got a good stretch too.
Fantastic I needed that❤❤❤
