Yesterday I had a spasum in my right hand it was stuck in a fist for around 2 hours, my nails cut the palm of my hand. Is there anything I can do to help relice the muscles, or stop this.

It would be worth talking to your doctor to see what they suggest since I guess it depends on what is causing the spasms etc. Baclofen is a muscle relaxant and I know some people with Parkinson's disease find it helpful but it could be contra indicated for you so please check with your doctor when you can.

sorry to hear this Kersjones it’s horrible all the suffering that everyone seems to be going through on here it’s heartbreaking. But at least we have each other for support and advice. My husband takes Baclofen since he had his stroke and it had helped him a lot. But he had waited nearly 2 years to see a neurologist. As his thumb and index finger on his right side keep curling in and causing him pain. So honestly try the baclofen and request to see a neurologist if possible. Good luck to you
