Detailed explanation-1: -With muscle atrophy, your muscles look smaller than normal. Muscle atrophy can occur due to malnutrition, age, genetics, a lack of physical activity or certain medical conditions. Disuse (physiologic) atrophy occurs when you don’t use your muscles enough. Neurogenic atrophy occurs due to nerve problems or diseases.

Detailed explanation-2: -Muscular dystrophy is a group of inherited diseases characterized by weakness and wasting away of muscle tissue, with or without the breakdown of nerve tissue.

Detailed explanation-3: -Musculoskeletal degeneration refers to the process where muscles, bones, tendons, joints, cartilage, and ligaments break down or deteriorate. Long-term degeneration without treatment can cause these tissues to die, resulting in reduced joint mobility, decreased strength, and increased pain with movement.
