The principles of treatment include: Controlling blood pressure and cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia..., ensuring adequate nutrition, combating pulmonary and urinary tract infections and ulcers in the sacrum - coccyx by turning, flapping the lungs, massaging by rehabilitation method mainly.
