Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson’s disease: Challenging impacts Dr Adeyemi Maxwell PARKINSON’S DISEASE is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement control. It primarily results from the gradual degeneration of dopamine-producing cells in the brain. While the exact cause of Parkinson’s remains elusive.

Parkinson’s disease is characterized by symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination. As the disease progresses, individuals may also experience cognitive decline and emotional changes. Treatment options for Parkinson’s focus on managing symptoms and improving quality of life through medication, therapy, and in some cases, surgery.

Research into Parkinson’s disease is ongoing, with scientists working to better understand the underlying mechanisms of the condition and develop new and more effective treatments. By raising awareness and supporting research efforts, we can move closer to finding a cure for Parkinson’s disease.
