Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy
Emery-Dreifuss Muscular
Dystrophy are characterized
by progressive skeletal muscle weakness, defects in muscle proteins, and the
death of muscle cells and tissue.
Age at onset, childhood
to early teens.
Symptoms:-
Symptoms include weakness and wasting of shoulder, upper arm, and
shin muscles; joint deformities are common; progress is slow; sudden death may
occur from cardiac problems.
Principal symptoms
include:
* Progressive Muscular weakness
* Poor Balance
* Frequent Falls
* Walking Difficulty
* Waddling Gait
* Calf Pain
* Limited Range of Movement
* Muscle Contractual
* Respiratory Difficulty
* Drooping Eyelids
* Scoliosis (curvature of the spine)
* Inability to walk
The prognosis for people varies according to the progression of
the disorder. Some cases may be mild and progress very slowly over a normal
lifespan, while others produce severe muscle weakness, functional disability,
and loss of the ability to walk.
Treatment:-
Homoeopathic medicine is showing promising vectors that may replace damaged
muscle tissue. Treatment is generally aimed at controlling the onset of
symptoms to maximize the quality of life, prevent further deterioration leading to
gradual improvement in health status of patients.
One can notice symptomatic improvement within 3-4 months of treatment. duration
of treatment varies with the severity of disease. We have over 6000 patients of
all types of muscular dystrophy from all over the world. We have documented up
to 80% improvement in our patients.

DYSTROPHY"
