Nervous Conditions

This disorder is when someone cannot and never has had the ability to perceive or feel any sort of pain done to their body. People with Congenital Insensitivity to Pain although unable to feel pain, can feel the difference between hot, cold, and dull and sharp, but cannot feel if something is burning them. People with this disorder also have very overt autonomic symptoms, so they tend to show a lot of their actions that are supposed to be involuntary. Congenital Insensitivity is a genetically…

Human and animals are biologically similar having the same set of organs, blood stream, and central nervous system, which is why they’re affected with the same diseases and health conditions. DNA of chimpanzees are 99% similar to humans. The HPV vaccine shot we all get, the vaccine came from experimentation on chimpanzees. Animal experimentation is has it’s perks for the animal as well. If vaccines…

Parkinson’s disease is a condition from the nervous system that disturbs motion throughout the human body. It progresses bit by bit. In the beginning of this condition, Parkinson’s disease can be seen by people who are diagnosed with this. They appear to seem as if they have no communication on their faces. They speak quite unclear and quiet. As the disorder develops throughout time, the signs worsen and are more transparent. This disorder has no cure but medicine is highly involved factor in…

Paralysis is a condition linked with the inability to move and involves loss of muscle function. It can occur due to many different reasons such as illness, poison or trauma. Flaccid paralysis and spastic paralysis are two conditions that are considered different forms of paralysis. It can be accompanied with sensory loss as well as loss of feeling. Flaccid paralysis is the loss of muscle tone. It gives rise to limp and floppy muscles that lack firmness due to loss of activity in these muscles.…

Parkinson's disease, also abbreviated as “PD”, is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects a person's nervous system, making them have trouble moving. A human has certain kinds of nerve cells in the brain called dopamine, these cells transmit and send signals to the brain allowing a person to control their movement. When these cells start breaking down and having problems, they cause a person to lose their control of movement, due to the lack of dopamine. PD is not a communicable disease – it…

Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a chronic (lasting greater than six months) pain condition that most often affects one limb (arm, leg, hand, or foot). CRPS is believed to be caused by damage to, or malfunction of, the peripheral and central nervous systems. CRPS is divided into two types: CRPS-I and CRPS-II. Individuals without a confirmed nerve injury are classified as having CRPS-I (previously known as reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome). CRPS-II (previously known as…

States the Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is sometimes called motor neuron disease. Also known as ALS this disease causes the nerve cells to gradually break down and die. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is known to be a progressive degeneration of the nervous system disease. Which causes muscle weakness and the impact of physical functions. The ALS often begins by the twitching of a leg or arm or the weakening of muscles. In other cases it also begins by the slurring of speech. This disease can’t…

Peripheral neuropathy Overview- The peripheral neuropathy is the morbid condition resulting from a deterioration and malfunction of the peripheral nerves. The peripheral neuropathy causes are many, diabetes is the main trigger, at least for industrialized countries like Italy or UK. The symptoms vary depending on whether they are involved in sensory nerve type, motor or self. To schedule an adequate therapy, it must be very careful diagnostic investigation: the identification of the causes and…

fissure syndrome is that the person can have frequent blackout and bleeding from nose. For many people the conditions can be severe as well as can prove fatal. The client was diagnosed and given an assessment with the goal of determining the factors. Through a process of discovery, the client's history finally revealed that there was a mutation in single gene due to environmental conditions . . However, through…

Introduction With each case study, I will explore and analyze the various scenarios and the impact the ailments have on the nervous system. Each scenario has its own effect on areas of neurons, the method of sending and receiving neurotransmitters, and the lasting effects of the impaired neurons. Case Study 1: Amy Amy burns her finger while cooking dinner. The natural response for someone that touches something hot is to pull their hand away from the heat. This response is provoked by general…
