Wasting of muscles 

Wasting of muscles

In the people suffering from muscle dystrophy, the patients find it very difficult to show physical activity due to extreme muscle weakness. They lack mobility result in muscle wasting. Muscle wasting does not occur soon after the disease is identified. Muscle wasting is observed after muscle weakness reaches a level when it becomes impossible for the person to move the arm, legs, and other parts of the body. This long period of inactivity leads to muscle wasting. Although these symptoms are usually observed in elderly people with this disease, the sign can be seen in young people.
