Dementia

Dementia

Dementia encompasses a range of cognitive disorders leading to a gradual decline in memory, thinking, and communication skills. It isn't a singular disease but a collection of symptoms linked to various underlying conditions. Alzheimer's disease stands as the primary culprit, alongside vascular, Lewy body, and frontotemporal dementia. Symptoms vary depending on the condition but commonly involve memory loss, confusion, language difficulties, impaired judgment, and shifts in behavior and mood. As a progressive condition, dementia requires careful diagnosis and management tailored to the individual's needs. Recognizing its diverse manifestations underscores the importance of early intervention and support for both patients and caregivers.
