Motor Disorders

By


Motor disorders are malfunctions of the nervous system that cause involuntary or uncontrollable movements or actions of the body. These disorders can cause lack of intended movement or an excess of involuntary movement.

Dysgraphia Introduction

By

Dysgraphia is a neurological condition in which a person has difficulty translating their thoughts into written language for their age and cognitive ability, despite proper instruction and education. Dysgraphia, also known as "written expression learning disorder," is a learning disability characterized by difficulty with written expression. Spelling, handwriting, and translating thoughts to paper can all be affected by dysgraphia. Individuals with dysgraphia may find it difficult to form letters, numbers, and words by hand, as well as to think and write at the same time. In more severe cases, the student may be unable to draw a straight line or hold a pencil correctly. vectors by Freepick; graphic design by Vadot Writing requires complex skills that involve vision, movement, and the ability to process information. A learning disorder in writing, also called dysgraphia, may cause the following: Slow handwriting that ta...

Disorders of the Cerebellum

The cerebellum is a component of the brain. It is located beneath the cerebral cortex, behind the brainstem, and above the spinal cord. The cerebellum plays a significant role in "coordination." People with a dysfunctional cerebellum are clumsy and unsteady. Even if they are not drunk, they may appear to be. Introduction The cerebellum, like the basal ganglia, has long been thought to be part of the motor system because damage to it causes motor disturbances. Damage to the cerebellum, unlike damage to the basal ganglia, does not result in a lack or poverty of movement. Cerebellar dysfunction, on the other hand, is characterized by a lack of movement coordination. In addition, unlike the basal ganglia (and motor cortex), cerebellar damage causes impairments on the ipsilateral side of the body. Cerebellar disorders are rare. They are frequently referred to as "ataxia". Ataxia is a broad term that refers to the general impairments in movement coordination...

Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease is a brain condition that results in unintentional or uncontrollable movements like trembling, stiffness, and issues with balance and coordination. Typically, symptoms start out mildly and get worse over time. People might experience difficulty speaking and walking as the illness worsens. Additionally, they may experience behavioral and mental changes, sleep issues, depression, memory loss, and fatigue. The substantia nigra pars compacta's dopaminergic neurons die as a result of Parkinson's disease. Although it exhibits a resting tremor, severe bradykinesia or akinesia is the most distressing symptom. Although reflexive, involuntary movements can sometimes be normal, patients with advanced illnesses have trouble initiating movements. It appears as though the loss of substantia nigra neurons has slowed the motor cortex's output and prevented voluntary motor commands from reaching the brain stem and spinal cord. Causes When nerve ...
