Situation:
Loss of muscle movement in hand.

What can we do???
Use a smiley soft foam ball and keep on pressing it whenever you or your patient
are free. This helps muscle movement in hand. For PALS who are stong, they can
even try the fist grippers (available in most medical shops dealing in
equipment). You can hold it in your hand and try and close the grip. They are a
little strong and closing the same needs some amount of energy.

3rd method is to use clay balls...readily available in all shops.

The idea is to keep your muscles moving for as long as you can.

More to come..

God bless all.

Gaurav..
