Management of CMT: Good day; Better to try to maintain activity, movement, muscle strength and flexibility. Suggest physical therapy and moderate activity. Try a physiotherapist and plan an exercise program. Orthotic devices may help; never had patient with CMT, but medications not very helpful. Consider an appointment with a physiatrist!
