10 Rat Lungworm Disease Symptoms
Symptom #9: Paralysis
Paralysis can occur for various reasons. Sometimes, it is because the muscles or other bodily structures are unable to function. At other times, it is because the central nervous system is unable to send and receive commands to the body. It can affect large groups of muscles, while it will sometimes only affect a single muscle.
In cases of rat lungworm disease, the patient may experience paralyzes of the extraocular muscles that help to move the eyes. They can also experience facial palsy, meaning they can lose all control of their facial muscles. Any kind of unexplained paralysis is obviously something that should be taken seriously.
