Neuropathy has various symptoms, including numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, and pain resulting from damage or malfunction to one or more nerves. Although the hands and feet are common sites of onset for neuropathies, other areas of the body are also not immune to the condition. Neuropathy, sometimes known as peripheral neuropathy, is an indication of dysfunction in the extremities of the neurological system. The peripheral nervous system refers to the system of nerves outside the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). The central nervous system includes both your brain and spinal cord. Visualize the interplay of the two...

Sensory Ataxia is caused by a lack of sensory input into movement control, in contrast to cerebellar impairment, which can induce Ataxia. Ataxia or decreased coordination of voluntary muscular action is a physical finding, not a disorder. Sensory Ataxia causes unsteady walking, and, specifically, it may affect the ability to balance with closed eyes or in the dark (in situations like showering). Loss of proprioception (the ability to know where one's body parts are concerning others and the ground) underlies sensory Ataxia, which manifests as uncoordinated musculoskeletal movements. High-stepping gaits (related to motor weakness) and feet-slapping gaits are two possible...

Ataxia can all be impaired by the inability to control voluntary motions, such as talking, blinking, swallowing, walking, and grasping objects. Multiple sclerosis (MS), head trauma, heavy alcohol use, stroke, cerebral palsy, heredity, and tumors are just a few of the conditions and other variables that include ataxia. Specific immune system problems and infections can also cause ataxia. This article will go through a few of the most common varieties, their potential causes, and current treatments. Symptoms Ataxia symptoms are condition-specific. The onset age relies on the underlying reason. When ataxia is inherited, it may manifest in early childhood or...

Rarely inherited in the general population, Ataxia-Telangiectasia (AT) is a disorder that impacts the neurological system, the immune system, and other organs and tissues. Features that define it include these signs: Lack of coordination (Progressive Ataxia) brought on by a cerebellar abnormality that worsens over time (the part of the brain involved in coordinating the movement of muscles) Impairment of eye movement control is known as oculomotor apraxia (difficulty moving the eyes from side to side) Choreoathetosis (abnormal movements such as involuntary jerky movements of the arms, legs, and face along with slow, twisting movements of the hands, feet, and...
