DMD is a genetic muscular disease causing progressive muscular weakness. As DMD affects nearly all the muscles of the body, a number of challenges have to be faced in the treatment process. A multi-disciplinary approach is needed for effective management of the disabling disease.
The medications and physical therapy can slow the course of the disease. Muscular Dystrophy treatment with fetal stem cells proves to be one of the options leading not only to deceleration in muscles wasting but also to some regression of the main disease symptoms.
Occupational physical therapy helps the patient in engaging in his activities of daily living.
Homoeopathy treat the person as a whole i.e. Homoeopathy can treat such a case by focusing on the patient as a person as well as considering his pathological condition Homoeopathic medicine is selected on the basis of the individualization of the patient. The focus is not on curing the disease but to cure the sick person, to restore to the health. If the disease pathology is not very advanced, homoeopathic medicine do give a hope for cure and even in advanced case, the quality of life can be greatly improved with homoeopathic medicines.
