2. DIAGNOSIS OF MUSCLE PROBLEMS

   • Electromyography
   • History Taking
   • Imaging
   • Physical Examination
   • Blood Tests
   • Specialized Tests
   • Muscle Biopsy

3. TREATMENT AND MANAGEMENT OF DMD

   • Surgery
     • Orthopedic surgeries
     • Cardiac surgeries ( DMD can lead to cardiomyopathy)
     • Gastrointestinal surgeries
     • Respiratory surgeries
   • Physiotherapy
     • ROM and stretching exercises
     • Low impact aerobic exercise
     • Braces
     • Mobility aids
   • Medications
     • Corticosteroids (prednisone, deflazacort)
     • Heart medications (angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or beta blockers)
     • New medications (eteplirsen, golodirsen)
   • Gene therapy
     • Gene therapy for DMD is designed to induce production of a shortened but functional version of dystrophin, known as a micro-dystrophin protein.​
