An Overview
Clearly, the brain is the control center of the
human body. In fact, it is the most important
part of the nervous system, which involves a
large network of neurons, nerves, and the spinal
cord. Well, the nervous system controls all your
senses throughout your body. A damaged brain
affects so many things including your
personality, memory, and your sensations. There
can be many reasons behind brain damage and
cardiac procedures are the most common. Do you
know, cardiac procedures can lead to brain
stroke? Well, in order to curb the risk of brain
stroke, doctors use cerebral protection devices
during cardiovascular procedures.

Lets Dive Into Some Types Of Brain Disorders
  • Brain injuries
  • Brain Tumors
  • Neurodegenerative Diseases

Brain injuries
  • Usually, brain injuries are the result of blunt
    trauma. This trauma can damage nerves, neurons,
    and brain tissues. In fact, this nervous system
    damage your senses.
  • Some of the brain injuries are blood clots,
    concussions, strokes, cerebral edema or swelling
    inside the skull, memory loss, hematomas, and
    more.
  • Depending on the type of brain injury doctors
    provide a treatment which includes
    rehabilitation, medication, or surgery.

Brain Tumors
  • The brain tumor is an extremely dangerous
    condition. Brain tumors are of two types benign
    (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Doctors
    indicate brain tumors in four stages 1,2,3 and
    4. Well, anyone can develop a brain tumor.
  • Some of the common symptoms of brain tumors are
    seizures, headaches, vomiting, nausea, changes in
    personality, changes in your hearing, speech, or
    vision, difficulty with movement, and more.

Neurodegenerative Diseases
  • Neurodegenerative diseases can destroy your
    complete nervous system. Some common
    neurodegenerative diseases are Parkinsons
    disease,
  • Huntingtons disease, memory loss, ALS
    (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), or Lou Gehrigs
    disease, dementia, and more.
  • These diseases can permanently damage your brain.
    Sadly, there is no cure for neurodegenerative
    diseases. But, good treatment can help.
