How long do you live with muscular dystrophy?

Congenital ones are generally born when they are young, and they generally do not live to be twenty years old. The quality of life is not mentioned. It can't be cured at the moment.

If it is not congenital, such as mandatory spondylitis or something like that, it will not affect the lifespan. Hawking lived for more than seventy. All men are going to die.

Eighteen years later, he is a good man again. Keeping you happy and improving your quality of life is king.

Muscular dystrophy is caused by genetic defects, patients usually manifest as limb muscle atrophy, walking limp, difficulty swallowing, drinking water, choking, coughing, etc., walking like a duck, severe will lead to motor impairment and even paralysis.

Progressive muscular dystrophy is a type of muscle degenerative disease caused by genetic defects, with progressive muscle weakness and atrophy as the main clinical manifestations, and can be detected by creatine kinase, electromyography or muscle biopsy.

DMD type (malignant): mostly 3-5 males, mainly manifested in gastrocnemius pseudohypertrophy, lower limb weakness, lumbar lordosis, duck step, toe landing; At the age of 8 to 12 years, the child is unable to walk and needs to be in a wheelchair; Around the age of 20, muscle atrophy affects the respiratory muscles and causes respiratory symptoms, and most people die of respiratory failure before the age of 25-30.

BMD (benign): onset after the age of 12 years, the disease progresses more slowly than patients with DMD muscular dystrophy, and can still walk after the age of 20 years. Although the disease progresses relatively slowly, if it is controlled in time, it can also affect the respiratory muscles and cause death.

What is the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophy?

1. The kidney is the innate foundation, storing the essence, and the main bone is the marrow. The kidneys are hidden, the yuan is yin, and the yuan is yang. If the congenital endowment is insufficient, the kidneys are deficient, the essence and blood are insufficient, and the bones are not nourished, the bones are dry and the marrow is empty, and the symptoms are not enough, the waist and spine are not lifted, and the bones are impaired. Dialectical treatment, spleen and kidney deficiency.

2. The spleen and stomach are the foundation of the day after tomorrow, the source of the biochemistry of qi, blood and fluid, and the main muscles and limbs. If the spleen and stomach are deficient, the five organs are empty, and the subtlety of the water valley cannot reach the limbs and muscles to become impotent. If the Yuan Yang that precedes the kidneys is insufficient, the fatal door fire fails, the spleen and Yang cannot be warmed, the spleen and stomach are deficient and cold, the reception and transportation function is abnormal, the biochemical source of qi, blood and fluid is insufficient, and the muscles are not moisturized, so the muscles of the limbs are weak and weak, and the flesh is impotence, and muscular dystrophy occurs.

3. Congenital endowment is insufficient, qi and blood are deficient, and the muscles and muscles cannot be nourished, resulting in limb weakness and muscle atrophy. Due to congenital deficiency, acquired malnutrition, deficiency of qi and blood, leading to internal injuries of the five organs, dysfunction of qi and blood in the viscera makes qi and blood more deficient, and muscle weakness continues to progress.

The predominant symptom of progressive muscular dystrophy is symmetrical muscle weakness and atrophy that progressively worsens, most commonly pseudohypertrophy. Pseudohypertrophy is in the gastrocnemius muscle of the lower leg, there will be muscle hypertrophy, weakness of the pelvic girdle muscle, and a feeling of difficulty standing up, which is manifested as slow walking, tiptoe landing, and easy falling.

The shoulder girdle muscles of the upper extremities and upper arm muscles are also affected, but to a lesser extent than the pelvic girdle muscles. There is also facicoscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, in which the muscles of the face and shoulder girdle are most easily affected, with weakness in eyelid closure and difficulty whistling and cheek bulging. The shoulder girdle muscles are the deltoid, biceps, and triceps, and these muscles also experience significant atrophy and weakness.

What is congenital muscular dystrophy? Medically speaking, congenital muscular dystrophy refers to muscle strength and hypotonia and joint contractures that occur at birth or in the months after birth.

Pathology on muscle biopsy shows typical muscular dystrophy. The lack of complete pathological data on this disease has long been debated. With the progress of molecular biology research, congenital muscular dystrophy has been internationally recognized as an independent disease type.

Congenital muscular dystrophy begins in neonates and manifests as a posterior protrusion of the spine, decreased muscle tone, often accompanied by hip dislocation, contractures of the proximal joints, torticollis, and distal joints showing alarming laxity and excessive elasticity. However, in some severe cases, excessive distal joint laxity may not be present, and this joint contracture can occur and develop progressively, eventually affecting the ankles, wrists, and fingers, which previously manifested as laxity. The patient's maximum motor capacity varies greatly, with some patients being able to move freely while others never being able to walk independently.

Most of the reasons for the limitation of motor function in later patients are related to joint contractures, and patients may lose their ability to walk due to joint contractures. Patients with UCMD are characterized by mild ptosis of the lower eyelids, a round face, and provocative ears.

Typical ** lesions are follicular hyperkeratosis.

In infantile onset, UCMD, which has a typical clinical presentation, and the diagnosis of Collagen VI staining is weakened or absent. However, older patients with muscle weakness and need for mechanical ventilation should be differentiated from ankylosing spondylosis, and muscle MRI can be helpful in showing the distribution of affected muscles. In addition, the clinical manifestations should also be differentiated from axial hollow myopathy, but the latter is often not accompanied by diaphragmatic weakness and **involvement.

The appearance of muscular dystrophy will cause great harm to life, and if the time is delayed, it will lead to a threat to life, but how long can you live, this is something that patients are very concerned about, so today I will take you to understand how long you can live if you suffer from muscular dystrophy.

1. The lifespan of muscular dystrophy is affected by stress.

Because everyone bears different levels of pressure, there are differences in how long they live, and some people's lives are more tenacious, and they have been relieving their pressure and maintaining a comfortable mood in normal times, so that they can achieve a certain effect of prolonging life.

2. The life expectancy of muscular dystrophy is affected.

Although malnutrition is a very bad disease, but if it has not been controlled, it will have a certain impact on life, because if it is not controlled, the speed of development will be relatively fast, so after suffering from muscular dystrophy, we must pay attention to seize the time, and we must pay attention to communicating with the patient in nursing, and usually take drugs according to the dose.

3. There is a certain relationship between the life span of muscular dystrophy and the severity of the disease.

Because some patients start to carry out ** in the early stage of the disease, so that they can achieve a certain recovery effect, but if the ** time is delayed, it has not started in the middle and late stages**, which will definitely affect the life of the disease. Therefore, when the disease does not develop particularly severely, it is necessary to take timely treatment, so as to control the disease and achieve the effect of prolonging life.

The above is an introduction to how long muscular dystrophy can live, in fact, the sooner you have any disease, the better, and it is not particularly serious when it is first discovered, you must be positive, if you delay it, it will lead to other complications, and you also need to pay attention to good care and good living habits after **.

Does muscular dystrophy affect longevity? I think in general, muscular dystrophy may affect some lifespan.

Muscular dystrophy is a hereditary disease, and how long a patient can live is related to the patient's condition, ** situation, and the patient's physique.

In general, the earlier the age of onset, the worse the prognosis and the shorter the survival time. Muscyotrophic dyspacing has clinical manifestations such as developmental delay, slow movement, easy falling, etc., and most patients will also have symptoms such as calf muscle hypertrophy, bilateral upper limb weakness, and muscle atrophy, which will lead to a serious decline in the quality of life of patients. As the disease progresses, the patient will also experience several complications such as lung infections, pressure ulcers, etc., which may lead to the death of the patient.

Clinically, long-term or intermittent drug support is generally used to delay the patient's life and improve the patient's quality of life. Commonly used injection drugs include adenosine triphosphate disodium injection, glucose injection, insulin injection, etc., and commonly used oral drugs include vitamin E soft capsules, dexamethasone acetate tablets, etc.

Patients with this disease should undergo reasonable training under the guidance of a doctor to strengthen the protection of cardiopulmonary function in a timely manner. Appropriate physical exercise can alleviate symptoms such as muscle atrophy, muscle weakness, and joint contractures, delay the progression of the disease, and prolong the life of patients. Patients should not blindly engage in high-intensity exercise training, otherwise it may accelerate the rate of cell necrosis and accelerate the progression of the disease.

1. Scope of lesions: the scope of muscular dystrophy varies greatly from a small range to a large range, which can be produced, some people may only involve the eye muscles, which does not have any impact on life expectancy, and some people involve the muscles of the whole body, and soon involve the respiratory muscles and heart muscles, which will have a great impact on life expectancy, and usually cannot live to adulthood, or even to 7-8 years old or 10 years old, and may die;

2. Medical and nursing knowledge: ensure adequate nutrition, avoid repeated falls and infections, avoid multiple trauma, and survive longer. If there is a lack of nutrition, lack of careful care, repeated lung infections, and repeated trauma, the survival time will be greatly shortened;

3. Family genetic background: some are not completely inherited, but partially inherited, and may be milder.

Progressive muscular dystrophy is a primary skeletal muscle disease mainly related to genetic factors, which is mainly manifested by progressive muscle weakness, movement disorders, and varying degrees of muscle atrophy. The main causes of its onset are genetic factors, genetic mutations, congenital damage, etc. Patients with muscular dystrophy who develop muscle weakness and respiratory failure can die around the age of 20.

Progressive muscular dystrophy is usually caused by a defect in the DMD gene. If the clinical symptoms of progressive muscular dystrophy progresse relatively slowly, people can walk independently after the age of 18 and can survive to age 40 to 50 years or older.

Muscular dystrophy, as long as you grasp it, can prolong life, but if it develops improperly, it will be very fast.

Muscular dystrophy is a hereditary chronic disease, the onset of this disease is very slow, but if not controlled, the deterioration of the condition will also affect the normal daily life of the patient, although there is no complete solution to this disease in medical treatment, but if you cooperate with the doctor's plan and maintain an optimistic attitude, it can delay the patient's life and control the disease.

At present, there is no specific drug for completely progressive muscular dystrophy in the world, but relevant studies have shown that such diseases can be improved and restored muscle function through the use of some drugs. Because different patients with progressive muscular dystrophy have different genes and different symptoms, if the child can be detected in the early stage of the disease, or can control the disease through drugs, it will not pose too much threat to life in a short period of time, and parents do not need to worry too much.

For physical problems such as muscular dystrophy, most people lack relevant understanding, resulting in the appearance of the disease before the time can not be found in time, many patients therefore miss the best means, and even some patients are afraid that their time is running out, in order to solve this confusion, the relevant content has been collected.

What is muscular dystrophy.

Muscular dystrophy is a congenital immune system disease, a hereditary disease that can cause the patient's muscles to slowly atrophy, leading to paralysis and even death if the condition is not controlled in time. This is a chronic disease, which must be controlled in time, just like the saying goes: the human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and if the disease is not controlled in time, it will slowly invade the human cells, leading to serious consequences.

How long can muscular dystrophy live.

Muscular dystrophy does not lead to death immediately after the onset of the disease, but destroys the body's immune system step by step, and does not threaten life in a short period of time, but it must be active**.

First of all, you should go to a professional hospital for examination, and then carry out targeted drug control or other ** after understanding the condition of the condition. This involves the question of choosing the best method, and it is also crucial to choose the right way on the basis of understanding your own disease.

At present, muscular dystrophy is a better means of traditional Chinese medicine, traditional Chinese medicine says, the kidney is the congenital foundation, the main bone and marrow, the appearance of muscular dystrophy is very closely related to the kidney, the deficiency of sperm and blood will appear muscle atrophy and dysplasia, on the basis of nourishing the liver and kidney, regulate the function of the spleen and stomach, so as to strengthen the muscles and bones, build muscle and become impotent, and improve the symptoms of muscular dystrophy.

For this kind of disease, there are a lot of relevant medical studies now, so you don't need to worry too much, regular check-ups every year are conducive to us to understand our own body functions, once we find a problem, we will not miss the best time. In the face of illness, we must be optimistic and actively cooperate**.
