Gsd

Glycogen storage disease (GSD) is a hereditary genetic mutation that affects the glucose storage process of the body. A person with this condition is missing an enzyme that helps in the glucose breakdown and due to this the excessive glucose is getting stored in the liver or in some cases it is not formed. Depending on its different effects, there are three different types of this disease. Children with this condition have symptoms such as delayed growth, enlarged liver, easy bruising, heat intolerance, weak muscles, and swollen belly. If a child has this condition he might need special medical care regularly as per the healthcare provider’s recommendation.
