As we grow older, it’s normal to forget small things — where we kept the keys, or what we had for breakfast.
But when memory loss begins to affect daily life, relationships, or personality, it might be a sign of a deeper neurological condition such as Dementia.
At the forefront of neurological care in Rajasthan, Dr. Abhishek Rathore, a NIMHANS-trained Neurologist in Kota, specializes in the diagnosis and management of memory loss and dementia-related disorders, helping patients and families find hope and support.
🧩 What is Dementia?
Dementia is not a single disease — it’s a group of symptoms that affect memory, thinking, behavior, and social abilities.
It occurs when brain cells are damaged and cannot communicate properly with each other.
This leads to difficulties in remembering, reasoning, and performing everyday tasks.
The most common type of dementia is Alzheimer’s disease, but there are many others, such as Vascular Dementia, Lewy Body Dementia, and Frontotemporal Dementia.
🔍 Early Signs & Symptoms
Recognizing dementia early is important for better management and quality of life.
Common symptoms include:
-
Forgetting recently learned information
-
Repeating the same questions or stories
-
Difficulty performing familiar tasks
-
Confusion about time, place, or people
-
Problems with speech or understanding words
-
Changes in mood, behavior, or personality
-
Withdrawal from social activities
If you or someone you care about shows these signs, consulting a neurologist as early as possible can make a big difference.
🧠 Causes & Risk Factors
Dementia can develop from a variety of causes, including:
-
Alzheimer’s disease (most common)
-
Stroke or reduced blood flow to the brain
-
Head injury or trauma
-
Genetic factors
-
Deficiency of vitamins (like B12)
-
Chronic infections or brain inflammation
Lifestyle factors such as smoking, obesity, diabetes, or high blood pressure can also increase the risk.
