Ischemic foci in the basal ganglia region are likely to cause numbness in the hands and feet, among other things.
The basal ganglia region has a wide range of areas, which includes the areas of the nucleus pulposus, caudate nucleus, pallidum, and internal capsule. Common causes of ischemic foci in the basal ganglia region include acute cerebral infarction, which may cause numbness in the hands and feet.
If injury to the basal ganglia region can lead to damage to the right corticospinal plexus, corticobulbar tract, and spinal thalamic tract, there is a risk of sensory dysfunction, motor dysfunction, and so on. If the sensory nerves are damaged, numbness of the hands and feet may occur, and if the motor nerves are damaged, lifting weakness of the upper limbs, unsteadiness in holding objects, walking weakness of the lower limbs, slow walking and other symptoms may occur.
When there is ischemic foci in the basal ganglia region, you should go to the Neurology Clinic in the hospital to clarify the cause of the disease and be treated under the guidance of the doctor.
