Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and would try my best to help you.

I have noted your son's diagnosis, treatment details and current condition. He needs to continue good physiotherapy and exercises to improve more.

Ankle foot orthosis (AFO)is also very useful for foot weakness (if there is foot drop).

There is no role of any tablets or injections now.

I sincerely hope my reply has helped you.

I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.

Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD (Internal Medicine), DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
