Q: My 83 years old father suffered a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) affecting his left leg 5 years back. Thereafter, he recovered considerably with blood thinning medicines. After 2 years he underwent prostate operation and uses diapers because his movements are restricted. He feels helpless now. Please advise weather Syndopa 110 can help his immobility.
A:The symptoms that you have mentioned could be related to the following conditions:
- Normal pressure hydrocephalus.
- Prostate enlargement.
- Parkinson's Disease or related disorders.
