Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. Is congenital muscular atrophy hereditary?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Congenital muscle atrophy is generally caused by intergenerational inheritance. Congenital muscle atrophy is difficult to heal completely on its own. On a daily basis, only rehabilitation and prevention work, as well as functional exercise, can be done to prevent muscle atrophy. This type of condition typically starts in childhood or adolescence and progresses slowly, with males being more affected than females. Symptoms include cold limbs, sensory disturbances, muscle atrophy and thinning. It is recommended that Traditional Chinese Medicine can be used for treatment, enhancing limb function exercise to prevent disuse atrophy.
