Congenital Muscular Dystrophy CMD
Congenital
Muscular Dystrophy "CMD"refers to one of the genetic,
hereditary muscle diseases that cause progressive muscle weakness. It is
characterized by progressive skeletal muscle weakness, defects in muscle
proteins, and the death of muscle cells and tissue.
Age at onset: birth; symptoms include general
muscle weakness and possible joint deformities; disease progresses slowly;
shortened life span.
Congenital muscular dystrophy includes several
disorders with a range of symptoms. Muscle degeneration may be mild or severe.
Problems may be restricted to skeletal muscle, or muscle degeneration may be
pair with effects on the brain and other organ systems. A number of the forms
of the congenital muscular dystrophies are caused by defects in proteins that
are thought to have some relationship to the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex
and to the connections between muscle cells and their surrounding cellular
structure. Some forms of congenital muscular dystrophy show severe brain
malformations, such as lissencephaly and hydrocephalus.
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 detoriation 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.
Recently Dr. Ramesh Bhardwaj has been awarded with
"THE MOST
SUCCESSFUL PHYSICIAN FOR TREATING MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY"
