What Is Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) in Babies?
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a serious genetic disease that causes the muscles to become weaker and waste away over time. This inherited neuromuscular disease is caused by a missing or mutated gene that leads a baby to lose motor neurons, nerve cells in the spinal cord that control voluntary muscle movement. Without an adequate supply of motor neurons, the muscles become weak and atrophy.
How to Wrap a Sprained Ankle
Ankle sprains occur when the ligaments that connect bone to bone are stretched too far, causing inflammation and sometimes tears. These injuries most commonly affect the ligaments on the outside of the ankle when a person's foot rolls too far inward. This injury is called a "lateral ankle sprain." This can happen while walking on uneven surfaces, stepping off a curb, playing sports, or during a fall.
