Since 2014, September 7th has been designated as International Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Day, with the color red serving as its symbol.
Every year, various activities are done to raise awareness about this disease to help improve the lives of those affected by it.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe type of muscular dystrophy that primarily affects boys. Muscle weakness usually begins around the age of four, and worsens quickly. Muscle loss typically occurs first in the thighs and pelvis followed by the arms.
