Diseases of the nervous system (neurology)

Paralysis after a stroke

Usually, paralysis affects the part of the patient's body that is opposite to the damaged part of the brain. So, if the right hemisphere is damaged, the left side of the body will be paralyzed, and vice versa. This fact is natural.

Bulbar dysarthria

Bulbar dysarthria is considered one of the most complex forms of the disease. As a result of the disruption of the transmission of nerve impulses, the mobility of the speech apparatus is greatly reduced, and there may also be paralysis of the facial muscles.

Central paralysis

Paralysis cannot be linked to a single cause: the factors that cause it are very diverse. Motor functions can be affected by a variety of damage to the nervous tissue.

Rising paralysis

Neurological syndrome – ascending paralysis – is an acute form of post-infectious multiple damage to peripheral nerves.

Arm paralysis

Paralysis is a disorder of motor activity that manifests itself as a complete lack of movement.

Angioma of the brain

Venous-arterial and venous angioma of the brain is a limited vascular expansion that looks like a tangled ball of vessels.

Nervous exhaustion

Various neuroses, neurasthenia, overfatigue are the scourge of modern life. Most people are forced to experience constant stress, overload, negative emotions, etc.

Atherosclerosis of the brain

The disease is chronic and is accompanied by disruptions in the nutrition of brain tissue due to the growth of lipid plaques. Due to its progression, the brain's performance is disrupted, which threatens the development of a stroke.

Post-stroke condition

The severity of this disease does not cause any doubts. Its consequences - the post-stroke condition - can remain with the patient until the end of his days.

Todd's palsy

Signs of paralysis or paresis that begin to appear after a seizure were first described in 1855 by the English physician Robert Benckley Todd (RB Todd), after which this medical phenomenon received its name.
