Understanding Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson’s disease is a neurological condition marked by the progressive degradation of brain cells that gets worse with time. Dopamine levels decrease as a result of nerve cell death in the substantia nigra, a specific region of the brain, which is required for controlling bodily movements. This dopamine shortage is what leads to the primary Parkinson’s disease signs and symptoms.
Common symptoms include involuntary shaking of body parts, slow movements, and stiff muscles. Although most people start experiencing symptoms after the age of fifty, some may notice them earlier, even in their forties. Men are slightly more susceptible to Parkinson’s disease than women. In addition to these primary symptoms, Parkinson’s disease can present other physical and psychological challenges:
- Balance issues
- Loss of smell
- Sleep disturbances
- Memory problems
- Feelings of depression and anxiety
While there is currently no cure for Parkinson’s disease, various treatments are available to manage its symptoms, and with the support of a live-in Parkinson’s disease caregiver, one can maintain a good quality of life
