Paralysis description |
---|
Paralysis is a loss of muscle function for one or more muscles. Paralysis can be accompanied by a loss of feeling (sensory loss) in the affected area if there is sensory damage as well as motor. About 1 in 50 people in the United States have been diagnosed with some form of paralysis, transient or permanent. The word comes from the Greek , "disabling of the nerves", itself from (para), "beside, by" and (lysis), "losing" and that from (lu), "to lose". A paralysis accompanied by involuntary tremors is usually called "palsy". |
