Hi Nlders, I need a physiotherapist’s advice on my father’s health issue. My dad will be 74 this year and he’s been battling all sorts for some time now but there are two scary ones which is glaucoma and body pain especially his right leg which kinda makes walking very difficult for him now. While he went on his usual visit to see the doctor treating his eyes 👀 the optician detected that his sight was in the last stage. He mentioned some things that had to do with eye pressure and he advised we let the leg alone for now and focus majorly on glaucoma. The moment we heard glaucoma we swinged into action, but his legs are hurting, they’re gradually becoming lean as if they want to stop carrying his body. His inability to do the usual things he’d normally do, is maybe part or solely responsible for why BP has set in. Pls anyone with useful (maybe on diet or otherwise) and professional tips can contribute and It will be appreciated. Thanks 🙏

Did his doc not recommend a drug for him?

Hire an ex-vigilante to every now and then shoot a dane gun near his window.

Nothing fear black man pass death.
By the time papa don take off like 3 times per week his leg will regain blood flow and start functioning 100% within 3 months.

I can’t imagine what your dad is going through right now.
He needs holistic care and blv me, he needs all the support that he can get from his family.
His leg condition has to be evaluated pls, don’t ignore it and I don’t think any reasonable medic will advise you to do that. Kindly consult an orthopedic specialist. They’ll ask him questions on how he feel, examine him and ask him to go for some imaging studies. X-ray of the knee, spine , plus/- mri of the spine. The specialist will then formulate a plan for your dad. Physiotherapy, occupational therapy, meds, procedures. Can’t go into the details.
He needs to see an ophthalmologist for his Glaucoma, not optician. Unless you don’t know the difference between them. Glaucoma can be stopped from getting worse but unfortunately, it can not be reversed.
He may need other services due to his individual needs. The doctors will definitely formulate a plan for him.
