Hemiparesis is paralytic or paresis symptoms in one limb. Paresis is the loss of movement, while paralysis is the loss of function. There can be many causes of hemiparesis, including various injuries to the extremities, disorders of the nervous system, lesions of the shoulder joint, or diseases that affect motor activity. To restore the mobility of the damaged limb, complex therapy is necessary. Often, with hemiparesis, the second arm on the side on which the pair of paresis symptoms occurs is also involved.
Hemiparesis (or hemiplegia) is most often a residual lesion of the arm and leg on the healthy side of the body, which occurs as a complication after a stroke. Depending on the degree and location of the lesion, against the background of symptoms - motor problems - and neurological disorders, the symptoms of hemiparesis are both generalized, and localized in nature. Hemipares is manifested by impaired motor function of only one limb and is accompanied by a temporary loss of intellectual activity.
