Dr. Melissa Gowans answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Osteogenesis type I: The treatment plan should maximize mobility and function, increase peak bone mass, and develop muscle strength. Physical therapy, early intervention programs, and as much exercise and physical activity as possible will improve outcomes. Visit: www.oif.org
