Neurological Disorders (Paralysis)
Neurological disorders encompass a wide range of conditions affecting the nervous system, often resulting in paralysis. Paralysis is the loss of muscle function and control, which can be caused by factors like stroke, spinal cord injuries, or conditions such as multiple sclerosis. It significantly impacts an individual’s mobility and quality of life. Treatment and rehabilitation for paralysis focus on physical therapy, assistive devices, and medical interventions to restore function and independence. Early diagnosis, personalized care, and ongoing support are crucial in managing neurological disorders leading to paralysis.
