Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear of this accident that your husband suffered. the truth is that if we do not use our muscles, they become weak and the strength and muscle mass drops. Maybe the accident has reduced his mobility and is responsible for muscle wasting because of decreased use. regular physical therapy sessions would help strengthen them. Can you please report his various blood pressure readings for me to tell whether it is high, low or normal before making further recommendations about this?


I hope this helps. I wish your husband well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
