How does muscular dystrophy affect people?

The severity of symptoms and progression of the disease can vary depending on the specific type of muscular dystrophy.
What body systems are affected by muscular dystrophy?
The body systems that are affected by muscular dystrophy include the nervous system and the musculoskeletal system. Many organs are also affected by this genetic disorder.
How does muscular dystrophy affect the Muscular System?
Muscular Dystrophy (abbr. MD) is a genetic disorder that DESTROYS MUSCLES that help the body move. As the muscle is destroyed they are replaced with fat and and connective tissue. Source.: Textbook: Human Biology 11th edition, pg 268; Silvia S. Mader.
What are the effects of muscular dystrophy?
Muscular Dystrophy causes numerous effects on the body. Here are just a few: aniexty, balance, bladder dysfunction, bowel problems, depression, and fatigue.
Does muscular dystrophy affect the excretory system?
Muscular dystrophy primarily affects skeletal muscles, leading to progressive weakness and degeneration. While it does not directly affect the excretory system, some individuals may experience secondary complications, such as reduced mobility, which can impact bladder and bowel function. Additionally, weakened abdominal and pelvic muscles might contribute to issues with urinary incontinence or constipation. Overall, the excretory system may be indirectly influenced by the broader effects of muscular dystrophy on the body.
What is the most common muscular dysfunction in children?
I don't know if its the most common but Muscular dystrophy is a genetic (inherited) disorder of the muscles. Muscular dystrophy causes the muscles in the body to become very weak. The muscles break down and are replaced with fatty deposits over time. Resulting in muscle wasting and weakening.
