There is no treatment available at present throughout the world. Just give physiotherapy at your home by a trained therapist who knows about DMD. Try to maintain his walking. Once walking is stopped, you cannot bring it back. Don't be cheated by any advertisement who claim that they can cure DMD. visit www.mdfindia.org

is there any chances of improvement in conditions of patients suffering from DMD?????????? 03/23/2012
Dear Sushma, Chances are very less regarding the improvement. Unless some changes occur internally like gene therapy or stemcell therapy from a reliable source, you cannot expect any improvement. Pray to God that the condition should not become worse than it is today. My prayers too are there for all DMD children. |
