Neuromuscular Disease

Neuromuscular disease encompasses various disease and disorders which affects the nerves that control muscle function and neuromuscular system. Neuromuscular disorders can generate difficulties with the nerves carrying information back to the brain, nerves that control voluntary muscles, and transmission between nerve and muscles. These disorders can make the muscles weak and may lose functioning as well.

Some signs and symptoms of neurological disorders or neurological disease are muscle loss, muscle weakness, double vision, trouble breathing and swallowing, numbness, balancing problem, and movement issues. Signs and symptoms for some of the neurological disorders can be visible in the infant stage as well. In general, there is no cure for these disorders. But prevention, prognosis, and management of these diseases vary according to the severity and types of these disorders.
