Parkinson's disease primarily affects the brain's ability to control movement, leading to a progressive decline in motor function. It results from the degeneration of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra, causing symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and balance issues. Additionally, it can impact non-motor functions, leading to problems with mood, cognition, and sleep. Over time, these changes can significantly affect daily living and overall quality of life.
