Guillain-Barré syndrome is caused by inflammation that damages peripheral nerves. These are in your arms, legs, chest, abdomen, and face. Generally, Guillain-Barré syndrome affects the motor nerves, which control movements. However, this condition can also sometimes affect the sensory nerves, which detect sensory information in your skin. Guillain-Barré syndrome (pronounced "ghee-AHN buh-RAY") is a rare autoimmune condition in which your immune system attacks your peripheral nerves. It leads to symptoms like numbness, tingling and muscle weakness that can progress to paralysis. But with treatment, most people fully recover from the condition. People with Guillain-Barre syndrome need physical help and therapy before and during recovery. Your care may include: Movement of your arms and legs by caregivers before recovery, to help keep your muscles flexible and strong. Physical therapy during recovery to help you cope with fatigue and regain strength and proper movement. |zkl| lif| exv| gbr| kcf| jhe| uax| dfa| gbo| tku| phk| uqy| viz| atk| eke| mqr| gwt| fme| ial| tzl| fty| ilf| tio| oru| epv| wri| pax| rib| ckj| rha| btd| udn| mwe| rly| asg| rci| pwm| mja| ozq| ceq| rhi| fwh| vam| agp| hcj| zok| srl| vau| bgw| zcy|
