The severity of the symptoms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) can differ from person to person, even among relatives with the condition.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is caused by mutations in genes that cause the peripheral nerves to become damaged.
If you have early symptoms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), your GP will ask about your symptoms and may carry out a physical examination.
There is no cure for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), but help is available to help reduce your symptoms and allow you to live as independently as possible.
