Aphasia

Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects a person's ability to use or understand language. It often results from brain damage, typically due to a stroke, head injury, or other neurological conditions. People with aphasia may struggle to speak, find the right words, understand others, or follow conversations. There are different types of aphasia, each affecting language skills in unique ways. While it can be challenging, many individuals with aphasia can improve their communication abilities with therapy and support, focusing on relearning language skills and finding alternative ways to express themselves.
