Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative conditions, second only to Alzheimer’s. It primarily affects the basal nuclei of the brain, leading to the gradual loss of dopamine-producing neurons and the buildup of abnormal protein clusters called Lewy bodies. Together, these changes cause the classic motor and cognitive symptoms of the disease.…
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common, progressive neurological disorder that primarily affects movement. It occurs when brain cells that produce a chemical called dopamine begin to die, particularly in a part of the brain called the substantia nigra. Dopamine plays a crucial role in controlling movement, so when these cells are lost, people experience symptoms…
Neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease (PD), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are among the most challenging medical conditions to treat. These disorders involve the gradual breakdown and loss of neurons in specific areas of the nervous system, leading to symptoms such as memory loss, paralysis, and impaired movement or cognition. Despite decades…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting millions worldwide, causing debilitating symptoms such as tremors, rigidity, and difficulty walking. Existing treatments primarily manage symptoms without addressing the underlying causes, highlighting the need for more effective therapeutic approaches. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy has emerged as a promising option, demonstrating potential neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative…
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative condition that can drastically impact everyday life, affecting both physical and mental well-being. Individuals with Parkinson’s often face challenges such as tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with movement, alongside cognitive and emotional symptoms like memory loss and depression. These effects can make even the simplest daily tasks increasingly difficult, leading…

Getting any serious medical diagnosis can be frightening and intimidating. You might be unsure of what to do next or how to manage your condition. When it comes to Parkinson’s disease, the future can be even more uncertain since it’s a progressive neurodegenerative condition. It’s important to make a plan for how you’ll proceed after…
Parkinson’s disease affects your fine and gross motor skills. It might seem counterintuitive to try to exercise after your diagnosis, but physical activity is crucial. For seniors with Parkinson’s disease, exercise can boost mood, improve physical health, and improve motor skills. Not sure where to start? Even just a few minutes of gentle exercise each…
Parkinson’s disease causes nervous system complications. If you know someone who has struggled with this disease, you know how debilitating it can be. Parkinson’s affects mood, memory, cognition, and movement. Fortunately, science is always advancing, and experts are learning more about Parkinson’s disease. Here are seven ways to help prevent Parkinson’s disease that are backed…
Orthopedic rehab is a type of rehabilitation designed to help people who have been injured, had surgery, or have degenerative conditions. Its goal is to aid patients in regaining mobility, balance, and function in their musculoskeletal system. Orthopedic rehab also focuses on finding ways to alleviate pain. If you have suffered an injury or gone…
