Causes, Symptoms and Treatment of Dyspraxia

Here's an explanation of the causes, symptoms and treatment of dyspraxia. Before that we will discuss in advance about the meaning of dyspraxia itself. Dyspraxia is a complex disorder in which individuals lack the coordination of their motor activity, speech, assessment, body balance and movement. In these people, a variety of cognitive skills such as memory, perception, thought processes are usually disrupted, although the intelligence remains unaffected. In addition, the nervous system and the immune system suffered a major setback. Dyspraxia is widely known as Developmental Coordination Disorder. Diagnosis is done by examining the symptoms of dyspraxia. Adults and children suffering from dyspraxia have great difficulty in performing normal daily functions.

CAUSE

We only assume the cause Dyspraxia as researchers have not been able to determine anything with confirmation. It is estimated that the main cause of this disorder is the improper development of motor neurons in infants because the proper connection is not established and therefore the message from the brain fails to get transmitted to the muscles. This theory explains the lack of coordination of motor skills. Again, because of the inability of the message transmitted by the nerves to get a good, cognitive behavior is affected. Therefore, children may be born with Dyspraxia. This phenomenon can be caused by:

• Premature Birth
• Low weight at birth
• Genetic causes
• Carelessness pregnant mother-alcohol or drug intake of the mother during pregnancy. Etc

However, in the case of adults, the incidence of sudden Dyspraxia symptoms may be due to any serious injury or head-head-stroke or the same right from birth. According to experts, 10 percent of people suffer from the symptoms of mild dyspraxia, although only 2 percent are affected by it.
