Alan Jackson looks unrecognizable as seen in a recent Instagram post.
In 2021, the 64-year-old singer revealed that he has a neurological condition called Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
What is Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease?
The illness is a hereditary nerve abnormality that produces anomalies in the nerves that supply the feet, legs, hands, and arms, according to the Hopkins Medicine website. It is often regarded as the most prevalent hereditary neuromuscular condition.
Mutations in genes that support or generate proteins involved in the construction and function of either the peripheral nerve axon or the myelin sheath are the most prevalent cause of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
Researchers are now studying many possible medicines that might one day cure this condition. Potential remedies include gene therapy, medicines, and in-vitro procedures that might help prevent Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease from being passed down to future generations.
Exercise, on the other hand, has the potential to increase functional capacity, independence, and quality of life in people with CMT.
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders, the condition affects around 126,000 people in the United States and over 2.6 million people globally.
