Hello dear
Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query for your mother in details .
* The main stay of treatment of filariasis are
- anti parasitic medications - antibiotics - management of limb edema
- general systemic care .
* Taking to any specific center will not make a big difference , as the
condition will remain under symptomatic remission , it is not curable
100% .
Hope this will help to clear your doubt .
Wishing her fine recovery .
Always welcome for any further assistance anytime .
