What is Paralysis?
Paralysis is the loss of voluntary muscle movement, most commonly caused by damage or disruption within the nervous system. This may involve the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves, preventing normal signals from reaching the muscles.
Paralysis can be:
- Partial (paresis), limited muscle control remains
- Complete total loss of movement in the affected area
It may affect one side of the body (hemiplegia), both legs (paraplegia), or multiple areas depending on the cause.
Common causes of sudden paralysis include:
- Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
- Brain or spinal cord injury
- Neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis
- Infections or inflammatory conditions
Associated symptoms may include slurred speech, facial drooping, numbness, confusion, or difficulty swallowing. Immediate medical evaluation is critical to prevent permanent damage and improve recovery chances.
