Injury, Illness, and Neurological Disorders
Neurological disorders take many forms, but all are caused by a disruption of the body’s nervous system. When communication between the brain and body is disrupted either by injury, illness, or external factors, a number of problems can result. Among the most serious are paralysis, muscle weakness, numbness, loss of coordination, seizures, mental fog and confusion, pain, and episodes of unconsciousness. Though there are many types of neurological disorders, some of the most common causes are genetic disorders, infections of the nervous system, malnutrition, and injuries to the brain, spinal cord or nerves.
Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson ‘s disease, and Huntington’s Disease are caused by degeneration of the nervous system, causing a disconnect between mind and body, causing both cognitive and physical problems. Traumatic brain injuries, contusions and other injuries of the back and neck, spinal cord trauma, and other acute injuries to the central nervous system can cause serious side effects such as epilepsy, loss of coordination, speech difficulties, and sensory impairment.
