Finally, something to ease movement after a stroke.

Featured Replies

While watching CNN Headline News the other night, I saw this interesting story on how Botox (a wrinkle-smoothing toxin) can ease movement after a stroke.

 

One patient, a woman in her 20s, had suffered a stroke after giving birth. With one hand permanently clenched, she was reduced to changing diapers with the help of her teeth. After the toxin injections directly into the hand, she was able to handle diapers again.
