Flaccid paralysis is a neurological condition characterized by weakness or paralysis and reduced muscle tone without other obvious cause (e.g., trauma). [1] This abnormal condition may be caused by disease or by trauma affecting the nerves associated with the involved muscles.
Acute TM degrades muscle fibers rapidly. Due to the rapid degradation of muscle fibers patients usually cite severe muscle cramps and muscle pain. Some acute TM patients may present symptoms of blurred vision and bulging eyes due to eye muscle degradation and inflammation, but documented cases are rare.
Ocular myasthenia gravis (MG) is a disease of the neuromuscular junction resulting in hallmark variability in muscle weakness and fatigability. MG is an autoimmune disease where anomalous antibodies are produced against the naturally occurring acetylcholine receptors in voluntary muscles.
Where available, ICD-10 codes are listed. When codes are available both as a sign/symptom (R code) and as an underlying condition, the code for the sign is used. When there is no symptoms for a disease that a patient has, the patient is said to be asymptomatic.
Weakness of the eye muscles is uncommon. Some may have double vision, drooping of the eyelids and difficulty swallowing, [4] but generally only together with leg weakness; this too distinguishes LEMS from myasthenia gravis, in which eye signs are much more common. [3] In the advanced stages of the disease, weakness of the respiratory muscles ...
Eye strain, also known as asthenopia (from astheno- 'loss of strength' and -opia 'relating to the eyes'), is a common eye condition that manifests through non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain in or around the eyes, blurred vision, headache, and occasional double vision. [1]
The majority of POIS symptoms like fatigue, muscle pains, sweating, mood disturbances, irritability, and poor concentration are also caused by withdrawal from different drug classes [21] and natural reinforcers. [22] It is unknown whether there is a relationship between hypersexuality, pornography addiction, compulsive sexual behavior and POIS ...
The specific symptoms depend on the locations of the lesions within the nervous system, and may include focal loss of sensitivity or changes in sensation in the limbs, such as feeling tingling, pins and needles, or numbness; limb motor weakness/pain, blurred vision, [29] pronounced reflexes, muscle spasms, difficulty with ambulation (walking ...
