A broad range of illnesses affecting the nervous system that progressively deteriorate over time are referred to as progressive neurological disorders. These conditions can affect the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves, and they can cause a range of symptoms that affect mobility, thinking, and general quality of life. Here's a quick rundown:Parkinson's disease is a degenerative neurological condition that impairs movement. The symptoms, which might include tremors, rigidity, slowness of movement, and poor balance, usually appear gradually over time.Alzheimer's disease: A progressive neurological disorder that causes memory loss, cognitive decline, and behavioral changes, Alzheimer's disease is the most prevalent cause of dementia. It gradually kills brain cells, impairing memory, reasoning, and ultimately the capacity to do basic tasks.Lou Gehrig's disease, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a progressive neurological illness that damages nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, impairing muscular function. Usually, it causes paralysis, respiratory failure, and muscle weakness.Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune illness that causes communication issues between the brain and the body by attacking the protective sheath that surrounds nerves. While there are many different symptoms, some common ones include exhaustion, trouble walking, limb numbness or weakness, and eyesight issues.Huntington's disease is an inherited illness that results in progressive brain nerve cell degeneration, impairing movement and causing cognitive and psychological symptoms. Involuntary motions, trouble walking, and cognitive deterioration are common early indicators.Motor Neuron Diseases: These are conditions affecting the motor neurons that govern voluntary muscles, such as progressive muscular atrophy (PMA) and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS). These conditions cause rigidity, weakness, and ultimately paralysis of the muscles.The rare and deadly degenerative brain disease known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is marked by fast progressing dementia, rigid muscles, and uncontrollable movements. The brain's aberrant prion proteins are the cause of it.The management of progressive neurological illnesses frequently involves the use of supportive care, therapies aimed at improving quality of life or slowing the advancement of the disease, and symptom control. There is still research being done on these illnesses in the aim of creating better therapies and, eventually, discovering a solution.
