Right now there is no such treatment as doctors are still researching, but I would say positive attitude towards life and herbal medicine is pretty good.
There are currently no generally accepted systemic treatments that alter the overall course of this disease. Some symptomatic treatments can be helpful for symptoms such as Raynaud's or heartburn, but with the exception of the use of ACE inhibitors to treat scleroderma renal crisis, there have been no clear advances in scleroderma treatments over the past 40 years, according to recent research. Autologous stem cell transplants (HSCT) are being studied and may be helpful for patients with rapidly progressing disease, but at best, this treatment has about a 5% mortality rate.
Keep warm even if it means wearing mittens in the 'refrigerated sections' of the grocery store! Get adequate rest and sleep to help combat stress. Keep a good eye out for any areas on your extremities (fingertips, nose, ears, toes and feet) that are exposed to cold weather! Exercise when you feel healthy and stay flexible.
we do not have specific drugs, have shown utility, methotrexate, rituximab, bosentan, prednisone, calcium channel blockers, sidelnafil, bronchodilators, oxygen therapy
In principle, the disease has no treatment, there is symptomatic, Bosentan, immunosuppressants, channel blockers calcium...etc., each of which will a few drugs well and others do not.
There is not a treatment in specific, it all depends on the patient and the physician or the institution where you are dealing with. It is recommended to take a diet where you exclude the fat, flour, spicy, that is to say, food which do not alter the gastritis caused by medications.
There is a treatment to help, there is no cure, however doctors are inclined to prescribe chemical light and immunosuppressive drugs to treat attack the immune system, after this there are a series of additional medication to counteract the discomfort or decrease caused by the main treatment
Scleroderma has no cure, what happens is the delay in the progression of the disease.
