Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have a problem with speaking. I cannot speak fluently. I struggle with speech. I have doubts about anarthria disorder. Please tell me clarification of that disorder. My age is 22 years.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Anarthria means inability to articulate clearly due to neurological conditions. It occurs usually in Parkinson's or stroke. it is unlikely that you might have any of the above at this age. It is very rare. What you might be having is stuttering.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
