This is a chronic genetic disorder and a regular follow up examination is required for that. unfortunately, there is no permanent cure and we need to address all the anticipated complications.

Children with this condition do have medical issues, not all have all the problems. Every child is different and may have different issues with neurofibromatosis. Although there is slight increased risk of certain tumors, not every child develop these.
As it is genetic condition, only the symptoms can be managed by appropriate medical professionals.
Please have a look at this link for further information.

Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder which affects mainly Skin, Bones and Brain. As it is a genetic disorder, unfortunately there is no cure to it. Treatment is mainly supportive and is aimed at complications of the disease, rather than disease itself. There are two types of NF. Type 1 and Type 2. What type your child is having?
