A member asked:
What are dermatomyositis, polymyositis and inclusion body myositis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Separate myosotis : Each is a specific type of inflammatory muscle disease. We call this myositis because the muscles can show information. When you have this you need an extensive evaluation looking for other associated issues. Therapy will be different for each of these.
