Dementia is a progressive neurological condition that primarily affects memory, thinking skills, and the ability to carry out everyday activities. It is most commonly caused by disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, and other brain-related conditions. People with dementia often experience symptoms including confusion, difficulty recalling recent events, challenges with language and word-finding, disorientation, and noticeable changes in mood or behavior. Although the risk of dementia increases with age, it is important to understand that dementia is not a normal part of aging. While there is currently no cure for dementia, early diagnosis plays a crucial role in managing the condition effectively. Timely intervention can help slow disease progression and improve the patient’s quality of life. Treatment options typically include medications aimed at managing symptoms, cognitive therapies designed to stimulate brain function, and lifestyle modifications that support overall brain health, such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, and mental stimulation.
