Spinal Muscular Atrophy Microdeletion Test in Mumbai

Spinal Muscular Atrophy Microdeletion Test in Mumbai

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a group of genetic diseases that harm and terminate motor neurons (nerve cells in the spinal cord and lower part of the brain). They work as a regulator to control the movements of your arms, chest, face, throat, and tongue.

Thus, when your motor neurons disappear or pass away, it leads to those filthy circumstances where your muscles begin to weaken and atrophy (waste away). Also, it doesn’t stop there; it gets worse as time passes and affects your daily life routine of walking, speaking, swallowing, and breathing.

Why is an SMA Test important? 

Being a chronic illness, Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a disease that can play a crucial role in affecting your body drastically in the long term. It will have an impact on you not only physically but also mentally. And without consulting a doctor, you can’t expect it to fade away. Thus, if your doctor has consulted with you to go for a test, then take a pledge and undergo a test to have a healthy and fit life; otherwise, ignorance of the present can result in negative consequences in the future, which you will regret for the rest of your life.

Signs and symptoms that Indicate Booking an SMA blood Test.

Usually, the signs and symptoms of spinal muscular atrophy ( SMA)vary depending on your SMA type. Still, the commonly detected signs are:-

• Weak arms and legs 
• Tremors 
• complications in swallowing 
• Difficulty in breathing 
• Bone and joint problems
• Trouble in movements. 

Types of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Microdeletion

Numerous types of SMA start at different ages. Some types cause more severe problems than others, and these are—

Type 1- Recognized as the most severe type, it develops in babies younger than 6 months of age.

Type 2- Babies are between the ages of 7 and 18 months. Also, it is less severe than type 1.

Type 3- Which grows after 18 months, is the least oppressive type affecting children.

Type 4- It strikes adults and only mild causes problems.

Due to a lack of technology and early diagnosis, children suffering from type-1 SMA used to die after surviving some years of their lives. Also, in type 2, only some survived this illness and reached adulthood. However, in the case of adults, this disease is considered non-life-threatening. Thus, an early diagnosis is helpful for yourself and your children, especially when you have the blunders of technology at your fingertips.
