nervous system

1. NERVOUS SYSTEM
-paresis
-taxia

2. Ataxia- without muscle coordination
Ataxia can affect movement, speech, eye movement
and swallowing. Ataxia usually results from damage
to your cerebellum, which is the part of the brain the
controls muscle coordination.
Treatments of ataxia may be using a walker or a
cane, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and
speech therapy may help.

3. Cerebellar ataxia- this term is a set of symptoms rather than
a disease or a diagnosis. Ataxia refers to lack of muscle
coordination and cerebellar is the location in the brain
called the cerebellum.
There are a wide variety of diseases, disorders, and
conditions that can cause cerebellar ataxia. Infectious
diseases, inherited or genetic conditions, certain
medications, and the list goes on.
Treatment of cerebellar ataxia syndrome depends on the
underlying disease, disorder or condition.

4. Paresis- weakness
1.partial inability to move: muscular
weakness or partial inability to move caused
by disease of the nervous system found on
Bing dictionary.

5. Monoparesis- Muscle weakness in one limb.
Can consist of either one leg or one arm.

6. Paraperesis- muscle weakness in both legs.
Some possible causes for Paraperesis are concussion,
spinal cord injury, trauma, and dorsal spine cord
fracture dislocation.

7. Hemiparesis- muscle weakness in one arm
or one leg on either side of the body.
Some possible causes for hemiparesis are
stroke, head injury, brain disorder, and
cerebral palsy.

8. Tetraparesis/Quadriparesis- weakness in all four limbs.
Patients can experience varying levels in function in their
limbs and this depends on the type of injury.
A neurologist can do a detailed examination to find out where
the problem originates, by determining which nerves are
affected.
Cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy are both linked to
tetraparesis.
