रुग्णाची, भावनिक व समजावून सांगणारी

“माझं नाव रघुनाथ आहे. वय ५० वर्ष.. काही महिन्यांपासून माझ्या हातापायात हळूहळू कमजोरी येऊ लागली. चालताना तोल जायचा, पायात जडपणा वाटायचा. हात थरथरायचे, इतकंच नाही तर शर्टचं बटणही लावता येईना. घरातल्या कामांसाठी सुद्धा मी इतरांवर अवलंबून झालो होतो.

मी अनेक ठिकाणी डॉक्टर दाखवले, पण कुठेच विशेष फरक जाणवला नाही. मनात सतत भीती — ‘काही काळानं मला लकवा तर होणार नाही ना?’

अशाच अवस्थेत कोणीतरी मला डॉ. ओम पाटील – स्पाईन स्पेशॅलिस्ट, मुंबई यांची माहिती दिली. मी ताबडतोब त्यांना भेटायला गेलो.

डॉ. पाटील यांनी सखोल तपासणी केली व एमआरआय पाहून समजावलं की मला सुरुवातीच्या टप्प्यातील सर्व्हायकल मायेलोपॅथी आहे — म्हणजे मानेतील मणक्यांमुळे मज्जारज्जूवर दबाव येत होता. त्यांनी अत्यंत शांतपणे सर्व काही समजावून दिलं आणि लगेच उपचार सुरू केले — औषधे, जीवनशैलीत थोडे बदल आणि योग्य फिजिओथेरपीच्या सूचना.

आश्चर्य म्हणजे पहिल्याच दिवसापासून मला फरक जाणवू लागला.

आणि फक्त १५ दिवसांत माझ्या त्रासात ७०% सुधारणा झाली.

✅ आता मी आधाराशिवाय व्यवस्थित चालतो
✅ हातात पुन्हा ताकद व नियंत्रण परत आलं
✅ बटण लावणं, सामान पकडणं सहज होतं
✅ मनातली भीती पूर्णपणे कमी झाली

आज मी पुन्हा आत्मविश्वासाने कामावर जाण्याची तयारी करतो आहे. माझ्या कुटुंबासाठी आणि स्वतःसाठी हे दुसऱ्या जन्मासारखं सुखद अनुभव आहे.

मनापासून धन्यवाद, डॉ. ओम पाटील सर – तुम्ही माझे जीवन परत दिलंत

Home Remedies for Magnesium Deficiency and Muscle Cramps in the Elderly : Spine surgeons opinion

By Dr. Om Patil, Spine Surgeon, Mumbai

Muscle cramps, fatigue, and restless legs are common complaints in older adults, often linked to magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is essential for muscle relaxation, nerve function, and bone health. Fortunately, mild deficiencies can often be managed safely at home with dietary and lifestyle measures.

1. Eat Magnesium-Rich Foods

Include magnesium-rich foods daily:
• Nuts & seeds: Almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds
• Leafy greens: Spinach, kale, broccoli
• Legumes & whole grains: Lentils, chickpeas, oats, brown rice
• Fruits: Bananas, avocado
• Others: Dark chocolate (70%+), tofu

These foods help replenish magnesium naturally and reduce cramps.

2. Stay Hydrated

Adequate water intake prevents dehydration-related muscle cramps. Adding a pinch of rock salt and lemon to water can help maintain electrolyte balance.

3. Gentle Exercise & Stretching
• Daily light exercises, walking, or yoga improve circulation and reduce cramps.
• Stretching calves, hamstrings, and lower back before bedtime can prevent night cramps.

4. Warm Compresses & Massage

Applying a warm compress or massaging cramped muscles increases blood flow and relaxes muscles.

5. Relaxation & Stress Management

Stress can worsen magnesium loss. Practices like deep breathing, meditation, or gentle yoga support mineral balance and overall muscle relaxation.

6. Oral Magnesium Supplements (if advised)

For persistent cramps, magnesium supplements such as magnesium glycinate or citrate may be recommended by a doctor. Always consult a physician before starting supplements, especially if the elderly person has kidney issues or takes other medications.

⸻

Key Takeaway:
For elderly individuals, a combination of magnesium-rich foods, hydration, gentle stretching, and relaxation techniques can reduce muscle cramps and improve overall wellbeing. Regular check-ups help ensure magnesium levels are optimal and prevent complications.
