What happen after stroke?

If someone had a stroke in their left somatosensory cortex, what would happen to their thigh region?

  • If someone had a stroke in their left somatosensory cortex (postcentral gyrus) in the thigh region, which of the following symptoms/signs would they exhibit? numbness & tingling in their left thigh numbness & tingling in their right thigh numbness & tingling in both thighs spastic paralysis in their right thigh numbness & tingling and spastic paralysis in their right thigh

  • Answer:

    numbness & tingling in their right thigh There is a "cross-over" effect, so the damage to the left post-central gyrus would affect the right side. And this is a somatosensory problem, not a motor problem, so spastic paralysis doesn't fit. It's sensory problem - the sense of touch.
