What can bad backgrounds do to cause sensory loss?
Bad backgrounds can disrupt the brain's ability to process sensory information correctly, leading to sensory loss. This disruption can result from high levels of noise, distractions, or conflicting stimuli in the environment, which can overwhelm the sensory system and cause it to shut down or malfunction. Additionally, exposure to certain toxins or chemicals in the background can also damage sensory receptors and pathways, leading to sensory loss over time.
Do sensory pathways travel to or from the brain?
Sensory pathways travel from the body to the brain. They carry information from sensory receptors in the body to the brain where the information is processed and interpreted.
Where do sensory neurons send messages to in the body?
Sensory neurons send messages to the brain and spinal cord in the body.
What is paraplegia?
Paraplegia is a condition characterized by the loss of motor and sensory function in the lower extremities, typically due to spinal cord injury. It results in paralysis of the legs and sometimes part of the trunk. Treatment focuses on rehabilitation and assistive devices to help individuals cope with the loss of function.
What are the signs of sensory loss?
Signs of sensory loss can include difficulty hearing or seeing, numbness or tingling in extremities, imbalance or unsteadiness when walking, and decreased ability to taste or smell. Individuals may also have difficulty distinguishing between hot and cold temperatures or experience changes in their ability to feel pain.
What will happen if there are lesions in the sensory pathways?
Parts of body that are affected by lesions depend on the sites and sides of lesions.If it happens after the sensory decussation (for example, at Medial Lemniscus or Internal capsule), it will cause the loss of sensations in the opposite side of the body. For instance, any damages to the left internal capsule will cause the loss of sensations of the right side of your body, including upper and lower limbs.If it happens before the sensory decussation (for example, at dorsal column of spinal cord), it will cause the loss of sensations from the level of lesion and below, in the same side of the body. For instance, any damages to left dorsal column in T12 spinal segment will cause the loss of sensations in the left side of your body from the level of lesion and below (which means, in this case, inlcuding the lower limbs only, but not upper limbs)
What is the difference between congenital and acquired sensory loss?
congenital sensory loss is when the person has the sensory loss from birth where as acquired sensory loss is when the sensory loss has developed as is the result result of ageing, serious injury or illness.
What part of the brain is injured when you can't feel anything in your lower body?
When you can't feel anything in your lower body, it may indicate injury to the spinal cord, particularly in the regions that transmit sensory information from the lower body to the brain. Damage to the spinal cord, especially in the thoracic or lumbar regions, can disrupt nerve pathways responsible for sensation. Additionally, injury to the somatosensory cortex in the brain, which processes sensory information, could also contribute to this loss of feeling.
What is acquired sensory loss?
the main causes of acquired sensory loss are
What is the difference by being born with sensory loss and acquiring sensory loss?
If your born with sensory loss you are used to it so its not a hard to deal with it but is u aquire sensory loss you have to over come it and it is harder to adapt to.
What are the effects of psychoactive drugs with specification to the basic classification of the drugs?
Any substance which, upon introduction to the body's system, causes imparement of the body's cognative functions and/or sensory perception. (Like a loss or reduction in the body's ability to feel is an impairment of the sensory perception while a specific loss of the ability to feel pain would be a sign of both cognative and sensory impairment.)
What tract carries sensory impulses from the lower limbs and inferior body trunk?
The spinothalamic tract carries sensory impulses related to pain, temperature, and crude touch from the lower limbs and inferior body trunk to the brain.
What is negative and positive impacts of sensory loss?
negative impact on people with sensory loss

With an penched siatic nerve why would there be mild sensory and motor loss in left buttock and leg?
A pinched sciatic nerve can lead to mild sensory and motor loss in the left buttock and leg due to the nerve's role in transmitting signals between the spinal cord and the lower body. Compression or irritation of the nerve can disrupt these signals, resulting in weakness (motor loss) and altered sensation (sensory loss) in the areas it innervates. This can manifest as pain, tingling, or numbness, reflecting the affected nerve's pathways. The severity of the symptoms often depends on the degree of compression and the duration of the condition.
