Other primary disorders of muscles - what does this mean
Other primary disorders of muscles are disorders that are caused by abnormalities in the muscles themselves, rather than by a systemic disorder or injury. these disorders can be due to genetic abnormalities, metabolic disorders, autoimmune disorders, infections, or toxins. symptoms can include muscle weakness, pain, stiffness, spasms, and cramps. diagnosis is made through a combination of physical exam, laboratory tests, muscle biopsies, and imaging studies. treatment depends on the underlying cause.
What happens during the disease - other primary disorders of muscles
Other primary disorders of muscles refer to a wide range of conditions that cause damage to the muscle tissue, resulting in muscle weakness, pain, and impaired movement. these disorders can be caused by genetic mutations, autoimmune conditions, metabolic disturbances, or infection, and can affect any muscle in the body, including the heart. treatment for these disorders is tailored to the underlying cause, and may include physical therapy, medications, or surgery.
