Book Synopsis



The term "Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease," usually abbreviated as "CMT," refers to a group of inherited conditions that affect the nerves in the extremities and can lead to nerve damage.


Jean-Martin Charcot, Pierre Marie, and Howard Henry Tooth were the physicians who originally characterized the sickness in 1886. The condition was given their names in honor of their contributions. According to mda.org, there are around 19 cases of CMT for every 100,000 persons who are part of the general population.


CMT is distinguished by the gradual deterioration of muscular strength and atrophy, as well as a loss of sensation in the extremities, particularly the hands and feet. The symptoms of CMT normally start appearing in childhood or adolescence, and the condition typically advances gradually throughout one's lifetime.


However, some treatments can help to reduce symptoms and slow the progression of the condition. Although there is no cure for CMT at this time, there are treatments available.


With the assistance of various assistive technology and adaptive equipment, some people who have CMT can live lives that are close to normal. Diet and nutrition are also very significant factors to consider while trying to alleviate the symptoms of CMT.
