Lewandowski Cold Paralysis

Levandovsky M., Kholodov E. Paralysis of the radial nerve.

Levandovsky and Kholodov described a new method of paralyzing the axons of the radial nerves, which help the patient move his arms. According to research by Levandovsky - Kholodov, it is believed that the radial nerve can carry out finger movement using a muscle reflex. Experiments performed



**Levandowsky Cold Palsy (Lewandowsky-Holodow palsy)** is an abnormal neuromuscular syndrome caused by the cessation of movement of the arms and legs after exposure to extreme cold. This is a rare disease that occurs in people who are exposed to cold areas for a long time.

Levandovskaya Cold paralysis is the result of a slow reaction of the body to a sharp and unexpected change in temperature. Pathology occurs when body temperature drops below a certain point, which leads to muscle spasms and loss of motor activity. In addition, this may be accompanied by painful sensations in the muscles of the arms, legs and back. In some cases, other symptoms such as hearing loss, blindness and speech difficulties have been noticed.

The condition is classified as temporary nerve damage that may be reversible if the person quickly moves to a warm environment. However, if the victim does not receive the necessary medical care or ignores the symptoms of the disease, a chronic complication described as “cold sickness” can result. It is characterized by a prolonged feeling of coldness in the extremities, muscle weakness and nerve dysfunction.

Fortunately, several treatments for cold paralysis have been developed. One is the use of artificial swimming pools filled with heat, where people can undergo treatments to raise their body temperature to a safe level. Heating using sunlight or infrared radiation can also be used. Physiotherapy, which includes exercises to restore muscles and improve blood circulation, is also effective.

However, it is important to note that to avoid cold paralysis, you must strictly observe the temperature regime. When going outside, dress appropriately. Don't allow change
