Stroke Patients May Recover Better with Magnetic Brain Stimulation

In a report from Health News, stroke patients may have a better recovery with magnetic brain stimulation. Strokes can lead to disabling complications and the inability to return to work. You may qualify for Social Security disability benefits if you have suffered serious complications following a stroke.

Researchers suggest that using magnets to stimulate the brain’s nerve cells could improve a complication from stroke called hemispatial neglect. About 20% to 50% of stroke patients suffer this complication which prevents them from recognizing or seeing anything on one side of their body.

This mostly affects stroke victims who suffer damage in the right half of their brain. Current treatment includes physical therapy, focusing on retraining the brain; however, the success rate is not very high.

Magnetic brain stimulation is found to help restore balance to both sides of the patient’s brain
but since this involved a small study, it will be necessary to conduct more research.

You should seek a Hallandale disability attorney if your claim for Social Security was denied. If you also need help in filing your initial paperwork, including the assembling of medical evidence, an attorney may be able to help. Seeking legal counsel can help you learn what your rights are.
