How Do You Treat Multiple Sclerosis Muscle Spasm?
Patients who suffer from multiple sclerosis often feel the affects of constant muscle spasms. The spasms may come and go, or last all day long. The first step in dealing with spasms is to see a doctor. Muscle spasms are treatable with medication. You can also help control spasms through exercise, therapy, massage and self-discipline. Seek the help of your doctor first. If spasms are left untreated, they can turn into larger problems and eventually joint that won’t move. Try changing your daily routine. Limit the amount of walking or moving around, try it for several days to see if that helps the spasms get better. Exercise your legs by standing and sitting (squats) or other methods that help stretch the muscles. Do yoga or other relaxation methods. Try a yoga workout for a few days in a row to see how it affects your muscle spasms. Find a massage therapist who specializes in multiple sclerosis massage. Ask your doctor for a referral. Adjust your daily life in any way you think may help
