Paresis is sluggish and incomplete movement of the limbs; paralysis is complete immobility of the limbs. Both can be diagnosed through a neurologic exam, in which the limbs are placed in abnormal positions and the veterinarian sees how long it takes for the animal to correct the limb's position back to normal.
For instance, dogs and cats should stand with their toes facing forward and the pads of their paws facing downward. A veterinarian will support the animal's weight and curl the paw over so the toes are facing backwards and the pads are facing upwards. A normal animal will flip the paw back over immediately (or, in some cases, not allow the paw to be flipped over at all). An animal with paresis of that leg will flip the paw back over, but will do so slowly and weakly. An animal with paralysis of that leg will not be able to flip the paw back over at all.
Paresis is a condition characterized by partial loss of movement or impaired movement, usually due to weakness or neurological dysfunction. It can affect various parts of the body and is often associated with conditions such as stroke, spinal cord injury, or nerve damage. Physical therapy and medications are common treatment approaches for paresis.
