A general practitioner is a physician or family doctor who is responsible for diagnosing and prescribing medical treatments for patients. It also manages comprehensive healthcare, performing routine checkups, providing preventative advice, and managing a wide variety of health conditions. When a patient requires specific or specialized treatment, the general practitioner refers him or her to a specialist. Her role is essential in coordinating medical care, ensuring that patients receive adequate and ongoing care to maintain their health.
A physical therapist is a professional specialized in repairing and restoring the physical mobility of patients who have suffered some type of physical trauma. It uses various techniques, such as therapeutic exercises, massage, electrotherapy, and manipulative methods to relieve pain, improve mobility, and strengthen muscles. It is advisable to see a physiotherapist after an injury, surgery, accident or if chronic mobility and pain problems occur, to receive appropriate treatment that facilitates recovery and improves quality of life.
Remember that for the proper selection of health professional that treats hemiplegia you must consider the nature, severity and symptoms you are presenting.
