What can i do to treat scleroderma?

It depends: Scleroderma can effect many parts of the body. The treatment prescribed depends on what part of the body is effected. For example certain antacids are prescribed for reflux. Calcium channel blockers are used to treat raynauds. Stronger medications like Cytoxan or CellCept (mycophenolate mofetil) are sometimes used to treat certain lung manifestations. Speak to a rheumatologist who is experienced at treating scleroderma.

Depends on type: The treatment ranges from "no treatment necessary" for mild forms of localized scleroderma (limited to the skin) to bone marrow transplantation for systemic sclerosis with internal organ involvement. Though there is no cure, advances are being made in the treatment of all manifestations of the condition.

Several options: D-penacillamine, rituximab, and methotrexate have shown promise in treating this condition.
