Diseases of the nervous system (neurology)

Extended pupils

The diameter of the pupil varies depending on the contraction of special muscles, which operate in a variety of ways: the function of the circular (circular) muscle is aimed at narrowing the pupil, and the function of the radial muscle is to expand it. 

Horner's Syndrome

The basis for the development of this disease is pathological changes affecting the autonomic nervous system of a person.

Akathisia

Akathisia is a syndrome of restlessness and restlessness. In this state, a person feels an urgent need to constantly move.

Hyperkinesis

Unconsciously produced and inexpedient from the point of view of physiology active movements - hyperkinesis - refer to pathologies of nervous regulation of muscles of different localization and arise as a result of the defeat of the central and somatic nervous system.

Friedreich's Ataxia

Friedreich's ataxia is an autosomal recessive pathology when a sick child is born to a visually healthy couple, but one of the parents owns the disease gene.

Cataplexy

Cataplexy is the sudden disappearance of muscle tone caused by emotional stress or a state of affect, from a subtle weakening of the musculature of the face and neck to a total short-term atony and disabling the ability to hold the body in a certain position.

Bruxism

Bruxism or grinding of teeth is a disease in which chewing muscles begin to actively contract, which leads to grinding of teeth.

Cerebral palsy

Children's cerebral palsy is one of the most severe neurological diseases in which the brain is affected or not fully developed, and various impairments of motor activity occur.

Neuralgia of the facial nerve

Neuralgia of the facial nerve, also known as neuritis or Fottergil syndrome, is a pathological condition in which human mimicry is disrupted, paralysis or weakening of the facial musculature is observed.

Duchenne's Dystrophy

The disease, which is called Duchenne's dystrophy, is associated with damage to the gene structures responsible for the production of large muscle protein dystrophin.
