What is Muscular Dystrophy?

What is Advance pain managment

Muscular Dystrophy (MD) refers to a group of genetic disorders that cause progressive muscle weakness and loss of muscle mass. Over time, it can affect walking, posture, breathing, and even heart function.

There are many types of MD, including:

  • Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)
  • Becker Muscular Dystrophy
  • Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy
  • Congenital MD
  • Myotonic Dystrophy




    Common Symptoms:

    • Frequent falls or trouble running
    • Difficulty getting up from the floor
    • Enlarged calves with weak muscles
    • Muscle cramps and fatigue
    • Weakness in hips, shoulders, or spine

    Our Mission: Maximize Abilities, Not Limitations
