If the thalamus is damaged which senses if any would be affected?

Answer 1

Damage to the cerebrum results in various problems depending on the intensity of injury and part affected.

Damage to the - occipital lobe can lead to hampered vision.

temporal lobe can lead to hearing and balance impairments

parietal and frontal lobe can lead to loss of memory, learning skills, coordination, reasoning etc.

Answer 2

Karsakoffs syndrome- a disorder caused by the deficiency of thiamine (produced in the thalamus). The thalamus is involved in the relay of signals pertaining to motor activity, language and memory. The brain is a complicated system and any one or more of these functions could be affected negatively due to damage. Basically, it all depends on the source and severity of the damage. A common consequence of thalamus damage is a burning pain affecting mostly the surface of the skin because the thalamus interprets pain signals. There can also be a myriad of other neurological effects including depression, lack of attention and focus, fatigue and many other effects.

Answer 3

Thalamus damage can leave a person in a coma or vegetative state.

Karen Anne Quinlan was found to have bilateral thalamus after falling into a vegetative state from a drug overdose.

Lesser damage to the thalamus can cause tingling or burning sensation on one side of the body, chiefly in the face, hand and leg. It can also cause sleep difficulties and loss of concentration.

Damage to the thalamus can lead to permanent coma and can also cause insomnia.

ALSO

Thalamic Syndrome (Dejerine-Roussy) is a rare neurological disorder in which the body becomes hypersensitive to pain as a result of damage to the thalamus, a part of the brain that affects sensation. The thalamus has been described as the brain's sensory relay station. Primary symptoms are pain and loss of sensation, usually in the face, arms, and/or legs.

Answer 4

if a sensory neuron is damaged, no neuron can undergo mitosis so the neuron is permanently damaged, depending on the number and the severity f the neurons damage then damage to the sensory organ may occur

Answer 5

If your temporal lobe is damaged, it can result in language impairment. The temporal lobe is your auditory area, it receives auditory information from the opposite ear and understands it. If it is damaged, you can't receive the information people are saying to you and you can't hear yourself talk.

Answer 6

The brain gets damaged or injured most likely at the front. When the brain get damaged at the front the brain would lose all memory. At the back, the brain would break the stem.
