Nerves are cylindrical bundles of fibers beginning at thebrain and the central cord and extending to some otherpart of the body.
Major new epidemiological analyzes focus attention onnervous system disorders as important causes of deathand disability worldwide
The nervous system is a sophisticated, complex systemwhich controls and regulates the activities of the body.
Introduction
Contd..
It comprises of the spinal cordand the brain.
The nervous system's mainorgans include: sensoryorgans of smell and tastesensory receptors located inthe joints, muscles, skin, etc.
CENTRAL NERVOUSSYSTEM
It comprises of all otherneural elements, includingthe autonomic nerves andthe peripheral nerves.
PERIPHERALNERVOUS SYSTEM
Two MainDivisionsof NervousSystem
The thinking ability and reason and the nervous systemmakes you aware and has language, memories and thoughts.
Feeling, smell, taste, hearing and sight.
Involuntary and voluntary functions, such as balancecoordination and movement.
Blood flow and blood pressure, are often controlled by thenervous system.
Functionsof NervousSystem
The nervous system is susceptible to numerous disordersincluding blood flow, disruption, tumors, structural defects,degeneration, infections and trauma.
Degeneration, such as Alzheimer disease, Huntingtonchorea, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis andParkinson disease.
Functional disorders, such as neuralgia, dizziness,epilepsy and headache.
Causes andRisk Factors
Contd..
Vascular disorders, such as extradural hemorrhage, subarachnoidhemorrhage, transient ischemic attack and stroke
Structural disorders, such asGuillain-Barré syndrome, peripheralneuropathy, spinal cord or brain tumors, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.
Infections, such as epidural abscess, polio, encephalitis and meningitis.
Symptoms of a problem with the nervous system dependon which region of the nervous system is affected and whattriggers the issue.
Systematic search, Problems with the nervous system maysuddenly occur and cause life-threatening problems ordevelop gradually and induce a progressive loss of function.
Symptoms can be mild or severe.
Symptoms can also include new language impairment,slurred speech and muscle wasting, back pain whichradiates to the toes, tremors and seizures, lack ofcoordination, impaired mental ability, etc.
Symptomsof NervousSystemDisorder
There are different examinations and methods for thetreatment of nervous system disorders.
A specialized X-ray called a fluoroscopy, in addition to thetraditional X-ray, examines the body in motion, such asblood flowing through arteries.
Other standard neurological exams include a CTscan,electroencephalogram (EEG) and magneticresonance imaging (MRI).
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a procedure thatmeasures metabolism and brain activity of cells or tissues todetect tumors or tissues or tumors.
DiagnosingNervousSystemDisorders
Spinal surgery.
Rehabilitation/physical therapy after brain injury or stroke.
Spinal cord stimulation.
Deep brain stimulation.
Medicines, possibly given by a drug pumps
Treatmentfor NervousSystemDisorders
Never smoke or use any other tobacco products.
Do not consume alcohol or unwanted drugs.
Limit the consumption of caffeinated drinks such as colas
and coffee.
Do daily exercise.
Drink abundant water and other liquids.
Eat a healthy diet.
To keep your body and nervous system healthy, follow theGuidelines below:
PreventionfromNervousSystemDisorders
Disorders of the nervous system which trigger the highestdeath and disability levels can be treatable and preventable.
Increased awareness of neurological disorders' globaleffects should help healthcare planners.
The neurological community set adequate research,prevention and management priorities for these conditions.
