Patient's question:
I've been feeling weak in my arms and generally powerless lately. These past few days, my arms and shoulders have been aching. After researching, I found that neurogenic muscular atrophy can also cause these symptoms. I'm quite anxious now. Could you tell me what are the symptoms of neurogenic muscular atrophy and how it should be treated?Doctor's answer:
Neurogenic muscle atrophy proves that the nerves controlling these muscles have experienced multiple injuries, unable to perform normal nutritional functions, and even unable to carry out normal activities, leading to repeated muscle swelling over a long period. This situation requires a hospital visit for an electromyography to confirm the specific damage, followed by treatment with neurotrophic drugs and hormone drugs to resolve the issue.
