What Is Myopathy?
6. Congenital Myopathy
Congenital myopathy is usually detected and diagnosed at birth. A child born with this muscle condition will appear limp or floppy and have difficulty sucking and breathing. Babies with this condition also lag behind other children in developmental milestones.
In some cases, what starts as a muscle disorder may morph into issues with the skeletal system. Scoliosis is often found in children who were born with congenital myopathy.
