Muscular Dystrophy causes numerous effects on the body. Here are just a few: aniexty, balance, bladder dysfunction, bowel problems, depression, and fatigue.
Muscular Dystrophy Association was created in 1950.
Muscular dystrophy is a group of genetic disorders characterized by muscle weakening and wasting, while Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a specific type of muscular dystrophy caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. DMD is the most common and severe form of muscular dystrophy, typically affecting boys and leading to progressive muscle weakness and loss of function.
Muscular dystrophies primarily affect boys, but girls can be affected, particularly by conditions like Becker Muscular Dystrophy and Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. Becker Muscular Dystrophy, a milder form of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, can occur in females who are carriers of the mutated gene. Similarly, Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy can manifest in both genders, with varying severity. Other forms, like Myotonic Dystrophy, also affect females and can present with different symptoms and progression.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Muscular Dystrophy Family Foundation was created in 1958.
Muscular Dystrophy Campaign Trailblazers was created in 2008.
muscle aches? Per a physician, they indicated muscular dystrophy which includes over 100 forms of the muscular dystrophy.
