10 Aphasia Symptoms
Symptom #10: Inability to Read and Write
Reading is a process learnt to decode symbols to derive meaning. Reading is a form of language processing where success is measured through comprehension, communication, and sharing ideas or information. Writing is a way for humans to communicate to represent emotion, language, and information using signs and symbols.
In patients with aphasia, both reading and writing skills are lost. This means that the patient is no longer able to comprehend written language or express themselves through writing.
