a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disorder characterized by muscle weakness and fatigue, particularly in the voluntary muscles

myasthénie grave

a medical condition where the heart muscle becomes weakened, enlarged, or stiff, leading to impaired heart function

cardiomyopathie, maladie du muscle cardiaque

a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord

SLA

age-related loss of muscle mass, strength, and function, leading to decreased physical performance and increased health risks

sarcopénie, perte musculaire liée à l'âge

a rare inflammatory disease that primarily affects skeletal muscles, causing muscle weakness and inflammation

polymyosite

an autoimmune disease causing muscle inflammation and distinctive skin rashes

dermatomyosite

a neurological condition characterized by a lack of coordination, affecting movements, balance, and speech

a degenerative joint disease characterized by the breakdown of cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced joint mobility

arthrose, osteoarthrite

the inflammation of the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion and reduce friction between bones, tendons, and muscles near joints

bursite

an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine

scoliose

a chronic bone disorder causing abnormal bone remodeling, leading to weakened and deformed bones with associated symptoms such as bone pain and fractures

maladie de Paget

a condition in children in which bones soften and become more susceptible to fractures and irregularities due to deficiency of vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate

rachitisme

a condition characterized by inflammation of the tendons on the outer part of the elbow, typically caused by repetitive arm and wrist motion

épicondylite latérale, coude du tennis

a genetic disorder causing muscle weakness and delayed muscle relaxation

dystrophie myotoniques, dystrophie musculaire myotonique

a condition caused by repetitive motions or prolonged, repetitive use of certain muscles, tendons, or nerves, leading to pain, inflammation, and functional impairment in affected areas
