Craniomalacia refers to the abnormal softening of the skull bones, often due to conditions like vitamin D deficiency or trauma, leading to structural changes in the skull. In contrast, Lou Gehrig's disease, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, resulting in muscle weakness and atrophy. While craniomalacia primarily involves skeletal changes, ALS impacts the nervous system, leading to loss of motor function. Thus, the two conditions differ fundamentally in their causes, symptoms, and affected body systems.

Between 3-5 years Sometimes less depends on how serious it is. Only 20% of people lived more than 5 years. Some are still alive today such as Stephen Hawking (Similar disease)
Did Lou Gehrig have any injuries?
ya that is why his career ended he had a disease with a really really long name so after he died from it they called it Lou gehrigs disease look it up if you really care what it is called
How you can avoid Lou Gehrigs disease?
Its difficult. Lat amiotrph. Scl (or LAS). Some says it ALS. If it is to the gene or DNA of someone, no ways how to bypass it. Only the option is <to the next generation> it doesn't appear as dominant gene factor. Khuda jaane..God knows..when the trigger or to whom it will be triggered. If some have Lou Gehrigs (Lateral amiotrophic sclerosis, only maintaining medicines). shukriya (thanks)
