What is Muscular Dystrophy?
Muscular Dystrophy refers to a group of inherited disorders that weaken muscles over time. It can range from mild to severe and may affect walking, breathing, heart health, and daily movement. Some forms are diagnosed in childhood, while others appear later in life. Because symptoms can resemble other conditions or be difficult to explain in emergencies, an ICE card ensures your diagnosis is clear and helps emergency staff respond appropriately and with care.
