Let's examine how useless this is! NOTHING ON CURING SPASTICITY! Survivors want it cured, not reduced! Why the fuck can't you solve that problem? Are you too lazy to even try to solve the problem? Too hard for you?

Abstract
Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability and death worldwide. Spasticity after stroke seriously affects patients’ quality of life. If this state persists for a long time, it will lead to severe joint atrophy, reduced motor coordination, and even permanent disability. Therefore, clinical research has focused on the treatment of spasticity and the recovery of motor function after stroke.Aim
The aim of this paper is to explore the use of botulinum toxin type A in the rehabilitation of spasticity after stroke and to provide a theoretical basis for optimizing rehabilitation strategies, highlighting its potential value in reducing spasticity and improving motor function.Method
This article reviews the latest research progress on the application of BTX-A in spasticity after stroke, discusses the potential and challenges of BTX-A in reducing spasticity and improving motor function in patients with stroke.Result
Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) is a local muscle paralytic agent that has received extensive attention in recent years for its application in reducing muscle spasticity and promoting post-stroke rehabilitation.This article confirms that botulinum toxin type A has a significant clinical effect in treating muscle spasticity after stroke and also helps improve motor function restoration in patients. Studies have shown that botulinum toxin type A injections are effective in reducing spasticity and, when combined with rehabilitation training, can facilitate the recovery of motor function in post-stroke patients. Therefore, botulinum toxin type A has a broad application prospect in the rehabilitation of post-stroke spasticity. KEY MESSAGES
The application of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) in post-stroke rehabilitation primarily focuses on reducing muscle spasticity and improving motor function.Spasticity is a common clinical manifestation of damage to the upper motor neurons. It is caused by the increased excitability of gamma motor neurons and manifests as excessive involuntary muscle contraction. Its causes include cerebral palsy, stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, brain or spinal cord tumours, and spinal cord injuries
