What are the preventive methods for benign pseudohypertrophic myotonic dystrophy?

       Benign pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy often starts after the age of 10, the first symptoms are weak pelvic belt and femoral muscles, slow progress, long course, 25 years or more after the appearance of symptoms before they can not walk, most in the 30-40 years of age still does not occur paralysis, the prognosis is better. Here are a few ways to treat and prevent this disease: 1. Physical therapy: Clinical practice shows that proper physical exercise and adequate activity of the joints, although not a cure for the disease, can at least delay the onset of more serious muscle atrophy, muscle weakness and joint contractures. Therefore, encourage patients to carry out as many activities as possible in the treatment of this disease plays a more important role.  2, massage: massage for this disease includes massage with appropriate techniques to stimulate the relevant meridian points, play a role in adjusting the function of the body and internal organs; and to assist patients with the necessary functional exercises for each joint to delay the onset of muscle atrophy and prevent contracture of the patient’s joints. In many cases, the latter is more important than the former.  3, acupuncture: strictly speaking, patients with this disease should be cautiously treated with acupuncture, especially with body acupuncture. When it is necessary to apply acupuncture treatment, attention must be paid to the intensity of the stimulation of acupuncture, and patients with this disease should not use strong stimulation.  4, targeting therapy: nerve targeting repair therapy allows the nerve growth factor to act on the injury site through intervention. It activates nerve cells in a dormant state, realizes self-differentiation and renewal of nerve cells, and replaces damaged and dead nerve cells, reconstructs nerve loops, and promotes the development of organs again.
