Motor Neuron Disorder

Motor neuron disease progressively damages the brain and nerves and gets worse over time. It is commonly found in people aged in the 60s and 70s, but it can also affect adults. It is also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This condition occurs when nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord stop working properly. 

There are not any specific causes for this disease but there are some risk factors that can make it worse such as exposure to viruses, genetic factors, and nerve growth factors. Sometimes immune system caused inflammation and damage to neurons.  

Symptoms 

• There are some early symptoms which can include 

• unable to grip, it occurs due to weakness or change in the hands.

• Find difficulty walking.

• Speaking problems such as slurred speech, swallowing, or chewing difficulties arise.

It was known that it only affects the nerve system, but now up to half of the people experience changes in language, cognition, behaviour, and personality.

Chances of progress

 This disease is equally treatable as it gets gradually worse over time and eventually leads to death. But situations vary people to person in some rare cases people live for many ages.

It makes the patient feel relaxed as in MND twitching, spasm, cramps, pain, and stiff joints are commonly seen, so this therapy plays a vital role in relieving them.
