Abstract

DUChene muscular dystrophy (DMD) primarily impacts young boys. It is an X linked recessive disorder occurred by muttions in the dystrophin gene. Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is happened by mutations in the dystrophic ge ne. BMB is seen in adolescence or early adulthood. Myotonic dystrophy is manifested by muscle weakness, myotonia (prolonged musclr contraction) and a range of other symptoms along with cardiac and respiratory issues. Limb Gird le muscular dystrophy (LGMD) influences the muscles around the hips and shoulders. Symptoms of muscular dystrophy include muscle weakness, contractures, respiratory complications and cardiac involvement. Diagnosis is based on clinical evaluation, genetic testing as well as muscle biopsy. Treatment is related to corticosteroids that decreases the progression of muscle degeneration and manage symptoms. It is finally concluded that dystrophia encompa sses a group of debilitating muscle disorders that influence individuals of all ages.
