What product can treat a stroke victim's hand immobility?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stroke: If due to a stroke the loss of hand function is usually due to damage to the motor cortex of the brain. If the contralateral side of the brain can't take over that function, there isn't much that can be done at present.
