    FAQ's

    Possible risk factors that can lead to the onset of neuromuscular disorders could be due to age, infections, autoimmune disorders, hormonal disorders, dietary deficiency, history of smoking, and other unknown factors. Genetic mutations play a crucial role, which can lead to disorders like spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease.

    Symptoms can vary for different individuals. Moreover, the rate of progression can also differ. General symptoms, however, include muscle weakness, cramping or atrophy, muscle stiffness, fatigue, abnormal sensations like tingling and numbness, difficulty breathing or swallowing, imbalance, and vision troubles.

    Diagnosis includes a thorough discussion of symptoms and medical history, followed by an evaluation of reflexes to check signs for muscle tone. Diagnostic tests include blood tests, electromyography (EMG), imaging scans like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain or spinal cord, spinal taps, muscle biopsies, or genetic testing.

    Existing treatments aim to slow the progression of symptoms. These include medications to relieve muscle weakness, pain, or stiffness; enhance muscle strength and activity; immunosuppressants; or high-dose immunoglobulin therapies. Other treatments include occupational or physical therapy, speech and nutrition therapy, assisted devices for movement, and surgeries.
