Damage to the left hemisphere of the brain, particularly in the motor cortex or related areas such as the frontal or parietal lobes, is likely responsible for the inability to move the right arm after a stroke. This is because the left hemisphere of the brain controls the right side of the body.
When a stroke occurs, it can cause weakness or numbness in one side of the body, often affecting the arm on the side opposite to where the stroke occurred in the brain. For example, if a stroke affects the right hemisphere of the brain, the left arm may experience pain, weakness, or difficulty moving. This symptom is part of a broader set of signs, commonly referred to as F.A.S.T. (Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulties, Time to call emergency services). Immediate medical attention is crucial when these symptoms arise.
