The complicated pathophysiological changes of DMED, involving vascular, neurological, muscular, and endocrine variables, have not been well addressed by any one treatment technique, and no widely approved treatment strategy has been developed.

Aim: The objective of this study was to thoroughly examine the complex nature of the pathogenic mechanism of DMED and discover new therapeutic approaches that could improve DMED symptoms.
