Some forms of LGMD and DD exhibit this pattern of inheritance, as does CMD. A person with only one flawed copy, called a carrier, will not have the disease, but may pass the flawed gene on to his children.

I believe you are referring to muscular dystrophy, this is a inherited degenerative muscular disease, and can only be inherited from parents.There are a number of types of muscular dystrophy but this along with all other inherited diseases are not infections.
Yes, Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. It is inherited in an X-linked recessive manner, meaning it primarily affects males and can be passed down from carrier females.
Spinal muscular atrophy is an autosomal recessive disease. The severity of spinal muscular atrophy varies, and is the most common genetic cause of infant death.
In general diseases that attack the muscles are called myopathies. Muscular dystrophy would be one example.
