10 Brain Disease, Cause, Symptom, Treatment

BRAIN DISORDERS, CAUSES, SYMPTOMS, AND TREATMENT

The brain is the vital organ of the human body. It plays its role in receiving and interpreting nerve impulses in the body and controls the body's coordination (nervous and chemical coordination). Brain disorders are common nowadays because of excessive use of the digital screen, sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diet, and noise pollution. Here is the list of 10 brain disorders, causes, symptoms, and treatment that affects human.

Alzheimer's Disease:

• Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible, progressive disease. It is a neurodegenerative disorder. It shrinks the brain and results in the death of brain cells and tissues. It is a type of dementia.

• Alzheimer's disease cause due to the formation of plaque and tangles around or within the brain cells. Moreover, it affects due to a genetic disorder, environmental effects, sedentary lifestyle, and aging.

• Alzheimer's symptoms include dementia, speaking and learning problems, lack of physical control, trouble recognizing spatial relationships and visual images.

• Alzheimer's disease involves memory loss and causes other health problems like severe dementia, illness, sleepiness, sadness, anxiety, fear, and stress. Alzheimer's patient wanders and gets lost, and they face trouble in coping daily household tasks.

• Medications can treat mild and moderate Alzheimer's Disease. These medicines (cholinesterase inhibitors) help reduce the disease's symptoms and control the patient's behavioral symptoms. Severe Alzheimer's symptoms can be diagnosed with memantine.

Dementia:

• Dementia is not a single specific disease but a collective term used to describe memory loss.

• Causes of dementia include untreated Alzheimer's Disease, Vascular disorder, degenerative neurological issue, infection of the nervous system. Sudden trauma, brain injury, plaque, or deposits around or within brain cells leads to dementia.

• Dementia patient suffers from memory loss, trouble to solve the daily task, confusion of time and place, vision problems, mood swings, difficulty in learning and speaking, poor judgmental ability.

• Dementia causes short-term memory loss, stress, depression, sadness, anxiety. Dementia relates to Alzheimer's Disease, and in severe cases, it leads to stroke, blood circulation problems, and many other infections.

• Medicine can improve the symptoms of dementia.

Brain Tumor:

• The brain tumor is the abnormal growth of cells inside the brain cells or around the brain cells and form an abnormal mass and cause severe problems to the brain.

• A brain tumor is malignant or benign.

• Brain tumors affected family history with a brain tumor (genetically inherited), age—those who work or reside in chemical exposures or radiation exposures.

• Its symptoms include headache (severe and persistent), unexplained nausea, vomiting, fatigue, sleeplessness, short-term memory loss, vision problems (loss of side vision), double vision, night blindness, etc.

• A brain tumor can develop at one site in the brain (benign), or it can spread to other normal brain cells (malignancy) leads to the destruction and death of brain cells.

• The brain tumor is treated by surgery, followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Epilepsy:

• It is a neurological issue. It is the explosive disorder of nerves in which abnormality of the electrical activity of nerves occurs. In this disease, short-term seizures often arise.

• The abnormal electrical activity of nerves causes epilepsy, brain inflammation or infection, physical injury, stroke or brain tumor, overuse of the drug, lack of oxygen during birth.

• Its symptom includes fits, uncontrolled jerking movement of the arms and legs, temporary confusion, temporary loss of consciousness, anxiety, fear, etc.

• Epilepsy leads to a temporary shortage of breath, and if it lasts for a long time, unexpected death can occur.

• Its treatment includes medication (anti-epileptic drugs), a Special diet (ketogenic diet), surgery.

Parkinson's Disease:

• Parkinson's is a neurodegenerative disorder; the progressive loss of muscle control occurs. In this disease, brain cells destroy and die. Parkinson causes shaking, stiffness, and difficulty in walking, writing, and body coordination.

• Parkinson's disease happens due to decrease dopamine production, advancing age, long-term stress or depression, genetically inherited environmental factors, etc.

•  Parkinson's symptoms include trembling in hands, trouble in movement, body balance, coordination, speech problems, writing difficulty, bradykinesia (difficulty in motion).

• Parkinson's disease affects the body's movement, and patients feel trouble in writing, eating, walking, and everyday tasks.

• Parkinson's is treating with medication that produces dopamine.

TIA:

• Transient ischemic Attack

• It is a neurological dysfunction in which there is a temporary shortage of blood flow to the brain, spinal cord, or retina. It is a temporary condition and does not cause brain tissue or cell death.

• This condition happens mostly in smokers, obese people, hypertension or high blood pressure, alcoholic and diabetic patients.

• Its symptoms are similar to a stroke, but it is temporary and goes away on its own in an hour or less.

• Untreated TIA leads to significant stroke, paralysis, numbness, weakness, brain tumor.

• TIA is treating by the use of antiplatelet medicines work by dissolving blood clots.

Brain hemorrhages:

• Brain hemorrhages are the rupture of blood vessels in the brain that lead to leakage of blood in surrounding tissues causes the death of brain cells and tissue.

• Brain hemorrhages caused by sudden trauma, hypertension, cerebral aneurysm (weakened and dilated blood vessels), drug overdose, liver disease, brain tumor.

• Its symptoms include seizures, unconsciousness, severe headache, loss of coordination, numbness in the arms or legs (often on one side).

• Brain hemorrhage causes total loss of brain function fits, paralysis, and in severe cases, death can occur.

• Medicine is prescribing for brain hemorrhages, and in extreme cases, a SURGERY requires.

Depression and anxiety:

• Depression and anxiety are simple terms of mental illness in which there is a constant feeling of sadness, fear, and stress.

• Depression causes are sexual abuse, physical abuse, emotional abuse. Moreover, certain medicines cause depression in patients. Teenagers and old age people are at high risk of brain disorders.

• Symptoms of depression include mood swings, bipolar disorder, sadness, anxiety, loss of interest, digestive problems, high blood pressure, etc.

• Long-term depression can cause severe brain disorders and death of brain cells and tissue.

• Its treatment includes medications and tips, and techniques to manage stress.

Huntington's Disease:

• Huntington's disease is a genetic disorder. It causes are by a defective gene that causes brain cells' breakdown, and abnormal function of brain cells leads to coordination, cognitive and psychiatric disorders in human beings.

• Huntington's is an autosomal disorder. It causes by the inheritance of a single defective gene.

• Its symptoms include balancing(coordination) problems, decreased impulsivity, decreased creativity, episodic anger, movement problem, OCD psychosis, decreased delicate motor tasks, Involuntary movements, etc.

• Patients with Huntington's symptoms usually can live 5-20 years after the onset of disease signs.

• But medicines (anti-depression, tranquilizers, antipsychotic drugs) can reduce its symptoms.

Tay-Sachs Disease:

• Tay-Sachs Disease is the accumulation of lipid (fatty acids) deposits in the human brain up to a toxic level. This condition occurs due to the absence of lipid degenerative enzymes and affects the nerve cells' function.

• It is a genetically inherited disorder. It mainly affects infants with a defective gene. People with a family history of Tay-Sachs Disease are at risk of this disorder.

• Its symptoms include loss of fine motor skills, seizures, muscle stiffness, progressive blindness, delayed mental development, red spot on the macula, increased startle response.

• This disease lead to the destruction of nerve cell thus abnormality of brain's function occurs.

• Its symptoms can reduce by medication (pain-killer), anti-epileptic (to control seizures), healthy diet plan.

The brain is the crucial part of the body. It helps in the coordination of body function. You can say that all your wisdom is due to the Brain's Functioning. As we know, nerves cannot be recoverable if they degenerate. So, take care of your health if you don't want brain disorders in your old age.
