Doctors for Lathyrism Treatment in Pune

Lathyrism is a sickness caused by eating too much of certain grass pea seeds over time, especially when food is scarce. It can slowly damage the nerves and make the legs stiff, weak, or hard to move. In severe cases, a person may have trouble walking or even become unable to stand properly.

Symptoms such as progressive lower limb weakness, hyperreflexia and gait disturbance may affect daily activities when associated with lathyrism. Without appropriate medical attention, some conditions can progress or lead to additional health concerns.

At Medicover Hospitals in Pune, our lathyrism doctors (neurologists) assess the condition and recommend suitable care based on the patient's symptoms, diagnosis, disease severity, and overall health. Treatment may vary depending on individual medical needs.

Our specialists provide care for patients who require initial treatment, follow-up support, or ongoing disease management. The aim is to control symptoms, address underlying health concerns where possible, and support better quality of life.
