Types of Paralysis🔶Paralysis is when someone can’t move certain parts of their body after something goes wrong with the connection to their brain.
🔸
Complete paralysis is when someone can’t move or control their paralyzed muscles at all.
🔸
Partial or incomplete paralysis is when someone still have some feeling in, and possibly control over, their paralyzed muscles.
🔸
Generalized paralysis is more widespread in the body and is grouped by how much of the body is affected.
🔹Monoplegia is a kind of generalized paralysis that affects just one limb.
🔹Diplegia affects the same area on both sides, like both arms, both legs, or both sides of the face.
🔹Hemiplegia affects just one side of the body and is usually caused by a stroke, which damages one side of the brain.
🔹Quadriplegia (or tetraplegia) is when all four limbs are paralyzed, sometimes along with certain organs.
🔹Paraplegia is paralysis from the waist down.
