By the way, doctor. My father had a massive stroke that left him paralyzed on one side. He's aware of all that's going on and can talk some, but he has severe spasticity in his left elbow, shoulder, and hand, along with muscle atrophy. Would Botox injections help the painful spasms in his arm and hand?
