Dissociative hemianesthesia
General information and scientific data on the occurrence of the disease
Hemianesthesia and dissociative hemianesthesia is a condition characterized by complete or partial loss of sensation on one side of the body or limbs. This disease can lead to disruption of a person’s normal functioning, and also entails serious consequences for the body as a whole.
The history of the study of dissociative hemianesthesia goes back many centuries. Even in Ancient Egypt and China, where the foundations of medicine were laid long before our era, medical treatises described cases of partial loss of sensitivity. Such
DISSOCIATED HEMIANESHESIA. In modern medicine, there are many concepts associated with neurological diseases and disorders, one of such ailments is hemianesthetic dissociation. It was first mentioned back in 1953 by the French neurologist S. Laveran. Since then, it has not lost its relevance. The essence of the term is determined by the name: “hemianesthesis” is one side of the body, and “dissociation” means loss of sensitivity. Hemianetization is a neurological problem. Before describing the “disease,” it is necessary to explain what hemiatrophy is. Hemiatrophy is usually called damage to the limb, which is expressed in the loss of tissue and skin. The article will talk about the facial nerve, or rather about the sensitive side of the nerve, namely the roots. The nerve roots provide sensitivity to the skin and soft tissues of the face. With hemianism, sensitivity on one side of the body is lost while the other is intact. A neurophysiologist diagnoses this disease. To make a diagnosis, it is necessary to conduct electroneuromyography. In addition, it is important to conduct an MRI so as not to confuse the disease with Milokrivitsa’s infarction. The symptoms of this disease are highly individual and may manifest differently in each person depending on the type of hemianostasis. A sample list of symptoms is given below as an example: - Pain in the jaw; - Painful sensations in the ear. There can be many reasons for pain;
- Burning sensation in the tongue, on the lips;
Since each lesion of nervous tissue has its own symptoms, it is possible to correctly determine the diagnosis in approximately 90% of cases. The only cause of heminaethysia is multiple sclerosis. Co
