Paralysis is damage to the relay system of the body. When this happens, signals may not make up to the muscles, and you cannot move partially or the whole of your body. Paralysis is when your body is not able to make a connection with your brain. It comes in many different forms; primarily, it can be temporary or permanent or may come and go.
Those with Paralysis due to a sudden injury or a congenital disability may not feel anything at all in the affected area of the body. But if Paralysis is a result of some underlying medical condition, like multiple sclerosis, there could be tingling or muscle sensation in the affected area.
Paralysis can cause problems with breathing and affect the functioning of the other organs. A person with a paralysis attack may have difficulty speaking or swallowing, or controlling bowel or urinary urges. Depending upon which portion of the body is affected and by how much, Paralysis may affect everyone differently.
Partial or incomplete Paralysis is when you can still feel your body or be in control of your paralyzed muscles. Partial Paralysis is also called paresis.
Complete Paralysis is when your body cannot move at all, and you cannot control paralyzed muscles at all. Unlike partial Paralysis, you may not feel anything in those muscles.
Localized Paralysis affects distinct areas or portions of the body, such as your face, hands, arms, or feet, etc.
Generalized Paralysis is spread to the body and further classified by how much your body is affected. Mostly it is categorized based on which part of your brain is damaged. It is further broken down into the following types:
Paralysis can make you stiff when your muscles are tight. Most people with cerebral palsy have spastic Paralysis. Over time, these muscles may turn sag and shrink eventually.
Symptoms may depend on the type and the underlying cause of Paralysis. Ostensibly, you may experience loss of muscle function in one or more parts of the body.
Other symptoms that may come along include:
The symptoms of Paralysis often appear straight away, as in the case of a head injury. Depending on the cause, signs can be temporary or permanent or may get worse with time, leading to Paralysis.
Some people are born with Paralysis, while others may have it in response to an accident or an injury, or a medical condition.
In many cases, stroke is the leading cause of Paralysis, followed by spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis.
Other causes may include cerebral palsy. Damage to the nervous system due to any of these conditions may cause health issues like Paralysis in many.
A working nervous system sends signals to and fro from the brain and the rest of the body. The spinal cord transmits signals into the peripheral nerves throughout the body.
Damage to the nervous system may affect the functioning of the entire body and hampers the quality of life.
Some other possible causes resulting in muscle weakness or Paralysis include:
In Ayurveda, Paralysis is named ‘Pakshaghata’ or Vata Vyadhi disorder. It denotes impairment in body movements and mental stability due to imbalance in doshas.
