Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) disease, is a hereditary chronic neurological mobility condition that manifests itself between the ages of 10 and 15 years . it is an uncommon genetic neuromuscular disorder that mainly causes trouble with mobility, speech problems, and loss of sensation in the limbs.

  Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that potentially devastates the central nervous system. It is considered the most widespread chronic neurological disorder that affects youths. As the immune system destroys the myelin sheath (the protein cover that surrounds the nerve protecting it from any possible damage), hence triggering communication challenges between the brain and the body. The condition might ultimately cause irreversible nerve injury or degeneration.   In general: Bladder troubles, Vision difficulties, loss of sensation, stiffness, stability problems or nausea, sexual dysfunction, aches, muscles spasms, and cognitive impairments are common early indicators of multiple sclerosis. The most serious complications are: 1-       vision impairment , the Inflammation caused by MS damages the optic nerve and impairs eyesight. This might result in degradation or loss of eyesight. In addition, the cranial nerves may be...

  Life is changeable. None of us can guarantee to live in permanent health, but always things happen of a sudden changing entirely the way we live. The secret fatal disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, it’s a Chronic neurological disorder that progressively destroys nerve cells. The disease mainly affects nerves extending from the brain to the spinal cord &, to muscles all over the human body. They are in charge of transmitting information between the brain, spinal cord, and voluntary muscles, which enables you to do actions including eating, clothing, talking, holding items, and walking. The loss of these neurons in ALS prevents signals from being sent from the central nervous system to the muscles. People mostly wonder who can be affected by such a fatal disease. In the United States, around 60% of those diagnosed with ALS are men, whereas 93% of cases are Caucasian. According to demographic surveys, roughly 5,600 persons in the United States have identified with ALS ...

But one of the essential diseases that people aren't well educated about is neurological disorders. Medically, neurological diseases are problems that affect the brain and also the nerves present all across the human body including the spinal cord. A variety of symptoms can be caused by structural, metabolic, or electrical irregularities in the brain, spinal cord, or other nerves.  Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a group of inherited disorders that cause nerve damage. This harm is mostly in the arms and legs. termed after the three doctors who first described it in 1886. Jean-Martin Charcot, Pierre Marie, and Howard Henry Tooth. The term "CMT" is commonly also called hereditary motor sensory neuropathy (HMSN) The general incidence rate of CMT is around 19 cases per 100,000 persons, however, this varies. CMT damages the peripheral nerves, which conve...
