Neuromuscular disorders are a group of conditions that affect the nerves and muscles, leading to weakness, pain, and difficulty with movement. These disorders can result from problems with the nervous system, which includes the spinal cord and peripheral nerves, or from issues with the muscles themselves. Common examples include muscular dystrophy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). People with neuromuscular disorders may experience symptoms like muscle cramps, fatigue, and difficulty walking or breathing. Treatment often involves physical therapy, medications, and sometimes surgery to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for better outcomes.
