An individual who has a neuromuscular disease may develop myalgia, a sensation of pain or achiness in the muscles. Tissues involved myalgia can also include the tendons, soft tissues that connect muscles, organs, ligaments, fascia, and bones. Most affected by myalgia describe the sensation as cramping in the muscles and or pain in the joints. Active and ongoing degeneration of muscle plays a role when it comes to the excessive workload placed on the muscles of affected individuals when they perform simple, day to day tasks. The muscular and soft tissues of a patient who has a neuromuscular disease are more vulnerable to tissue injury because they are actively losing their function and wasting away. An injury in any type of tissue will naturally trigger the individual's immune response, which results in inflammation, swelling, redness, and pain.
