Hemiplegia Paralysis

Hemiplegia can show its impact on either the left or right side. The damaged side of the brain creates symptoms on the opposing side of the body.

Depending on the degree and nature of Hemiplegia, people may have various symptoms. Paralysis doesn’t identify its victims by age – it can occur in adults and children alike.

And kids with Hemiplegia may or may not take more time to reach all the developmental milestones than their classmates and friends.

Not just that, they play with only one hand or hold one hand in a fist in the aftermath of the disease. Here are a few signs and symptoms that patients and their loved ones must be aware of:

• One-sided muscle weakness or stiffness
• Muscle spasticity or permanently tensed muscle
• Inadequate motor skills (movement abilities)
• Difficulty walking and weak balance
• Difficulty in making a solid grip

And now, because the disease originates in the brain, it can leave behind some mental health complications that can be identified from the enlisted signs:

• Sudden seizures
• Loss of memory or spaced memory
• Concentration obstacles
• Changes in general behavior
• Slurred speech

Hemiplegia is a significant symptom of a brain stroke, a potentially fatal medical emergency. Remember to think “FAST” while recognizing the stroke symptoms (if any):

• F – This indicates ‘face’. Request that the affected person smile. Look for any kind of drooping on either sides of the face, directing towards Paralysis (facial Hemiplegia) or any other muscle weakness.
• A –The letter A stands for ‘arm’. A victim of brain stroke frequently develops muscle weakness and stiffness or Paralysis on one side. Request that they raise their arms. If they develop any new weakness or motor inability, one arm will remain higher while the other is comparatively low or does not rise.
• S –The letter S stands for ‘speaking’. Strokes frequently cause people to lose their ability to talk. They may slur their speech, struggle to find the correct words, or cannot get words out of their mouth.
• T –The letter T stands for ‘time’. It’s just a warning and a reminder that time is of the essence, so do not put off seeking assistance! Look at the time and try to remember when the symptoms begin. Telling a healthcare provider when the symptoms began will help them determine which therapy options are best and start the treatment immediately.
