Journal Title: Indian Journal of Neurosciences - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Motor muscle paralysis is caused by damage of nervous system and severity may range from mild to complete loss of muscle power, causes of this abnormality mostly exist in brain or nerves. There are other variations of motor paralysis are periodic limb paralysis, sleep paralysis, and dissociative motor paralysis. The sudden motor paralysis is mostly caused by generalized seizure activity in brain that can be induced by many reasons like light, sound, exercise, changes in body metabolism etc. In this case we have reported atypical presentations of unexpected intense sound induced motor paralysis and in which there were diagnostic and management problems.
