Gestione dei sintomi della sclerodermia

Although there is no cure for scleroderma, many people find that their symptoms can be managed to enable them to live fairly normal lives.

Everyone is different, and management of scleroderma symptoms will often involve a combination of drug treatments, medical management and lifestyle changes.

Your specialist will be the best person to advise on what is likely to work for you. People living with scleroderma often draw upon the expertise of a multidisciplinary team, including nurse specialists, occupational therapists and dieticians in finding the best ways to manage their condition.
