Physical Disability: Types and Causes 

For example, if your child is identified as having spina bifida, they will be transferred to a specialised team for support. Doctors and specialists may create a care plan to address your child’s needs and difficulties. The care plan will be reviewed as your kid ages to account for changes in their needs and environment.

This birth condition, known as neural tube defect, is spina bifida (NTD). This folding of the embryo’s posterior side, which usually creates the vertebral column with its muscles, spinal cord, and spinal nerves, is abnormal.

Doctors can treat the many challenges of spina bifida in a variety of ways. Along with the initial spinal surgery, they may use physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and mobility aids.

• People may have been born with a physical disability or may have developed one as an adult, for instance, as a result of a neurological disorder like multiple sclerosis or motor neurone disease. Physical impairments might also develop from traumatic events like spinal cord injuries or brain injuries like stroke.
• Physical disabilities can be caused by congenital, acquired, or perinatal circumstances
• People may be affected by various physical impairments, including hearing loss, chronic fatigue, impaired movement, chronic pain, seizures, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, and muscular dystrophy affecting a person’s body function and mental health.
• The complexity of your physical disability will determine the kind of care you need. Some patients may need to see a specialist or their primary care physician. Others, however, could require a group of medical professionals.
