Is paraplegia hereditary? What are the dangers of paraplegia?

Whether paralysis is hereditary or not depends on a case-by-case basis. For example, some patients with acute cerebrovascular disease or acute myelitis, or inflammatory peripheral neuropathy are paralyzed, which is generally not inherited.

However, some hereditary central nervous system diseases can lead to hereditary, such as hereditary spastic paraplegia, patients can manifest as weakness of both lower limbs, paralysis, spinal cord thinning, etc. There are also some hereditary muscle diseases, such as progressive muscular dystrophy, which can also cause paralysis.

Of course, there are also some degenerative diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which can be inherited, and it is about 10% to 5% familial. Therefore, whether paralysis is inherited or not depends on different diseases.

Depending on what causes it, paraplegia is the result, mainly depending on the cause, paraplegia is not hereditary, but the disease that causes paraplegia may be inherited, and eventually it can also lead to paraplegia.

Paraplegia is generally not inherited, but hemiplegia due to cerebrovascular disease may be inherited.

Guidance: It is recommended that these diseases are mainly caused by arteriosclerosis, and as long as you adjust your lifestyle habits to maintain blood pressure and blood lipids, you can reduce the incidence.

Spastic paraplegia is inherited, usually autosomal dominant, or autosomal recessive and X-linked recessive.

Paraplegia is a condition caused by the destruction of the spine by trauma, which is not genetically related and will not be inherited.

Hello, paraplegic what are you divided in**paraplegic? There is no genetic history, and if you have a normal injury paraplegia, you will not inherit it.

No, this is not contagious, and there is no genetic possibility, but if you are not good, it will affect your body, if you are infected, it will be troublesome, so it is recommended to be thoroughly**good, **good life, physical and mental health is the most important!

Paraplegia is a chronic disease with a high incidence in recent years, which is extremely harmful to people. Everyone should pay attention to the harm of paraplegia, actively do a good job in the prevention and treatment of the disease, and avoid the disease. So?

The following experts have explained it in detail. 1. Cause urinary tract infection: spinal cord injury or spinal cord transection causes spinal cord shock, motor reflex is inhibited, bladder relaxation, and filling urinary incontinence occurs.

At this stage, the patient has a large amount of residual urine due to insufficient urination. Long-term indwelling catheterization is also a factor in the upward bladder infection. 2. Lung infection:

Paraplegic patients are bedridden for a long time or have respiratory muscle movement disorders, reduced respiratory volume, weakened or absent coughing movements, and poor discharge of a large number of respiratory secretions, causing lung infection. There is a danger to life. 3. Spasticity:

There will be spasms from the waist to the feet, and they are allergic to sound, and the sudden sound will aggravate the pain and spasms 4. Urine is closed and feces are closed, urine needs to be discharged with a urinary catheter, and stool needs to be discharged with the assistance of drugs, which makes the patient suffer. 5. Pain: 24 hours of pain from the upper abdomen to the feet, sometimes like 10,000 needles, sometimes like a knife, sometimes like a fire, and the whole pain is as stiff as being poured with cement.

After the introduction of experts, I believe you have understood something, and I hope to help you.

Paraplegic patients belong to a state of consciousness but no way to walk freely, paraplegic patients because they have no way to take care of themselves, so they need to be cared for by professional people 24 hours a day. Generally speaking, many more serious diseases will have some complications, and the same is true for paraplegic patients, because the patient is bedridden all the year round, so some diseases caused by the inability to exercise will follow.

The most common complication of paraplegics is a urinary tract infection, which is actually very well understood. For example, some people who need to sit at work all year round are the most likely to cause urinary tract infections, especially in summer. Because paraplegic patients need to insert a urinary catheter for a long time, if the catheter is not aseptically instilled, it is easy for bacteria to pour into the patient's body.

Therefore, the caregiver must pay special attention to the hygiene of the paraplegic patients, and encourage the paraplegic patients to drink more water and urinate more, which is very effective in preventing urinary tract infection.

Paraplegics are unable to walk and move freely for many years, which may cause joint stiffness or deformity, just like a machine may have some malfunctions if it is not used for many years. The best way to prevent joint stiffness and deformity is that medical staff should help paraplegic patients with passive activities and massages every day, which can well prevent the complications of joint stiffness.

Finally, we all know that the most important thing that patients who have been bedridden for many years needs is the cleanliness of the body, and if the body is not cleaned well, it is easy to have bedding. Therefore, the personnel who take care of paraplegic patients should pay attention to cleaning the paraplegic patients regularly every day, and should also pay attention to the situation of the paraplegic patients at all times, and turn the paraplegic patients in time. In addition, paraplegic patients are also susceptible to infections because they cannot do outdoor sports like normal people, and these complications require special attention.

Paraplegia is the complete or partial loss of function of the muscles of a body part or entire body, resulting in the inability to move actively. Not ** paraplegia can lead to the following harms:1

Muscle atrophy: Due to lack of exercise, paralyzed muscles will gradually atrophy, resulting in a decrease in muscle strength and physique, and complications such as bed rest and fractures are prone to occur.

2.Joint contracture: Joints that have been inactive for a long time are prone to contractures, resulting in the inability of joints to move normally, muscle stiffness, bone and joint rigidity, and other phenomena.

3.Vascular disease: Long-term paralysis causes a certain amount of pressure on the blood vessels, which can easily lead to local vascular blockage, vascular lesions, and may also increase the risk of thrombosis.

4.Urinary system problems: paraplegic patients are prone to urinary tract infection, urinary insecurity, urinary stasis and other problems, which affect their health.

5.Psychological problems: paraplegics are often affected by physical inconvenience and social discrimination, and are prone to negative emotions, which affects their mental health.

Therefore, paraplegic patients should actively accept it, maintain good health, restore muscle function and hunger through training, physics, etc., improve self-care ability and quality of limb life, and avoid complications. At the same time, families and society should be understanding, supportive, and tolerant to help paraplegics better adapt to life.
