Acrodysplasia

Acrodispergia is a fairly rare congenital disease of human connective tissue. It is manifested by a violation of the normal proportions and structure of the bones that are located on the upper part of the body. Disorders begin in the womb. The disease is accompanied by various deformities of the feet and hands, changes in the shape of the fingers and lower extremities. Acro dispersion can also cause problems with the digestive system and respiratory failure.

This pathology is a severe disorder and is characterized by a lack of normal mobility of the joints and muscles of the feet. This disease leads to serious complications and interferes with the patient’s normal functioning. There are many factors that can cause this disease. The causes can be either hereditary or caused by environmental factors. The reasons include injuries, accidents, overloads of varying degrees. People with this disease often have joint pain, which leads to pain at night. There are several forms of acrodispersion. For example, the cerebral form is characterized by disruption of the cerebellum, movements become uncertain and slow. They also distinguish a form of horny skin lesion; this form develops extremely rarely. This is manifested by a change in the color of the skin in the joint area, their darkening, and the appearance of blue spots. Most often, acro dispersion occurs in boys; at birth, deformations of the nail plate occur, and the muscles become bent. Deformation of the torso and limbs most often occurs in females; males are more often affected by this disease after severe injuries.

A variety of methods and tactics are used to treat acrodispersion. As a rule, treatment lasts about 3 years. Correction of this disease is carried out not only surgically, but also therapeutically, including chiropractic and physical therapy. The surgical method involves cutting the ligaments and muscles of the foot and ankle joint. As a result of these actions, mobility in the joints is restored. The therapeutic method restores muscle function using exercise therapy or manual therapy. In severe cases, courses of electrophoresis are prescribed. Because children's bones are poorly formed,
