Treatment for Muscle Weakness
Your healthcare professional will suggest the best course of action once they have identified the reason for your muscle weakness. The underlying reason for your muscle weakness and the intensity of your symptoms will both determine your treatment strategy.
The following are a few possibilities for treating illnesses that produce muscle weakness:
Physical Therapy
If you suffer from diseases like MS or ALS, a physical therapist might recommend exercises to enhance your quality of life.
A physical therapist might advise progressive resistance training, for instance, to help someone with MS strengthen muscles that have weakened from inactivity.
A physical therapist could advise stretching and range-of-motion exercises for ALS patients to avoid muscle stiffness.
