This condition is considered to be a tough condition
because it is more psychological than physical. A
person having mild cognitive impairment can become
frustrated that he cannot perform a very simple task
which a small child can do. The outcome can be really
harsh if the patient is not getting precise medication
and psychological treatment.
Mild cognitive impairment is also known as MCI. After
great research it is found that a person affected
by MCI has a increase risk of having Alzheimer’s
disease.
Most people having MCI and if their main problem
is with the memory then they can develop Alzheimer’s
disease but it is not a must thing, mostly it depends
on the person, treatment and on the condition. Parkinson’s
disease is a movement disorder which involves those
areas which are affected by MCI.
Due to the common areas between MCI and Parkinson’s
disease, it is not very uncommon to see a patient
suffering from MCI and to exhibit balance loss and
dysequilibrium. Most patients of MCI have a increase
risk for fall.
If the disease is diagnosed in the very beginning
the doctors can manage to separate the two diseases
and to manage with proper and precise rehabilitation.
Most of the patients who have identified the disease
can have great outcomes as compared to those who fail
to diagnose the disease in the very beginning.
The end stage disorders always require drug therapy
and great care to reduce the disability and incapacitation.
In these disorders cane or a stick is considered to
be must while walking. In the beginning patient can
walk using some stick but eventually he will need
a wheel chair.
