Definition of «neuromuscular»

Neuromuscular refers to the interaction between nerves and muscles. It involves the communication between motor neurons, which are located in the spinal cord or brain, and the muscle fibers they innervate. This communication is essential for controlling voluntary movements such as walking, running, and lifting objects. Neuromuscular disorders can occur when there is a problem with this communication process, leading to issues such as muscle weakness, paralysis or involuntary twitching.
