Adult Neurogenic Disorders

Damage to the central or peripheral nervous system causes acquired neurogenic communication problems. People with these conditions used to be able to communicate normally. The problems may arise immediately as a result of an acute incident or gradually as part of a progressive condition. Some of the causes include stroke, dementia, Parkinson's disease, Lou Gehrig's illness, tumours, and traumatic brain injury. Speech and communication abilities are sensitive markers of neurological issues and one of the earliest signs of neurological difficulties.
