Neuromuscular disorders vary in severity and therapy. Common treatments for these illnesses are listed below:
Symptom management and illness progression are commonly managed with medications. Corticosteroids, muscle relaxants, and painkillers can reduce muscle stiffness, discomfort, and inflammation.
improves muscle strength, flexibility, and function. Exercises, stretching, and other methods may enhance muscle control and coordination.
improves everyday life abilities like dressing, grooming, and eating. Tools help maximize independence and function.
such as braces, walkers, wheelchairs, and orthopedic shoes can help neuromuscular patients move.
Sometimes surgery is needed. Tendon release and muscle lengthening operations minimize contractures and improve joint mobility.
for respiratory muscle weakness. Non-invasive or mechanical ventilation may be needed.
If the neuromuscular illness is inherited, genetic counseling can help families understand inheritance risk and family planning.
