What are Treatment Options for Motor Neuron Disease

Motor neuron disease, abbreviated to MND, is a severe and rare neurodegenerative disease throughout the world. Although motor neuron disease is incurable right now, we have got some available medical options which can intervene in the patient’s condition to a certain extent.
What are treatment options for motor neuron disease
Generally speaking, rehabilitation, occupational therapy, and physical therapy are designed to:
Prevent joint immobility
Improve posture
Slow muscle atrophy and weakness
Strengthening and stretching exercises may help:
Increase range of motion
Reduce spasticity
Keep circulations flowing
In addition, some therapies for chewing, swallowing and speech can also be required.
Some medications may be recommended to cope with some symptoms in the later stages of the disease such as pain and musculoskeletal abnormalities.
Are there better treatment options for motor neuron disease
Currently, the stem cell therapy is the most advanced treatment for motor neuron disease.
Unlike any conventional therapy, the stem cell therapy which significantly utilizes the amazing characteristics of stem cells including the abilities to differentiate into any certain type of cells under certain circumstance within a short time, mainly concentrates on the replacement and repair of the injured cells in the brain and nervous system to restore their original normal abilities, fundamentally reversing the damage in human body.
The stem cells in the clinical treatment process are generally acquired from the patient himself or herself, leaving you nothing to worry about issues such as side effects and immunological rejection.
Right now, the stem cell therapy is widely used in not only motor neuron disease, but also cerebral palsy, diabetes, multiple system atrophy etc.
With the evolvement of the stem cell technology and those related medical technologies and equipments, I believe the stem cell therapy will cure motor neuron disease completely in the near future.
