Years ago… I
was told my arm had a ‘dead zone’ in it. It makes my arm weak in that particular
spot and I have trouble lifting things with it. Even picking up the covers at
night to pull up over my body is difficult. I’m in terrible pain. It has gotten
progressively worse over time. So my doctor recently sent me to physical
therapy to see if we could build up the strength in my arm and increase my
mobility. I go twice a week on Tuesdays
and Thursdays. My physical therapist and her assistant have given me a half a
dozen exercises to complete each time. And those exercises are harder to do
than they appear. I am hoping with time my arm will improve. Just a little is
better than not at all. Have you ever needed physical therapy and did it
ultimately help?
