Disorders of the muscles refer to a broad range of conditions that affect the strength, function, and health of skeletal muscles, which are responsible for movement in the body. These disorders can result from various causes, including genetic conditions, inflammatory diseases, trauma, or nerve damage. Common muscle disorders include muscular dystrophy, a genetic condition causing progressive muscle weakness; myasthenia gravis, an autoimmune disorder that impairs nerve-to-muscle communication; and polymyositis, an inflammatory muscle disease that leads to muscle weakness and pain. Other conditions like muscle strains, cramps, and atrophy occur due to injury or disuse. Symptoms of muscle disorders often include weakness, pain, cramps, fatigue, or difficulty in movement, which can significantly affect a person’s ability to perform daily activities.
