  1. Strange as it may sound, our brain hemispheres control the opposite sides of our bodies. So, a hemorrhage on the right, causes paralysis on the left. And Vice Versa

    I hope this helps in some way


  2. This is an example of hemiplegia.

    Hemiplegia is a term used to describe paralysis, severe weakness, or rigid movement on either the right or left side of the body. Hemiplegia  can also be associated with limited use of the hand, balance issues, speech issues, and visual field problems.

    Cause of Hemiplegia

    The main cause of hemiplegia is brain damage as the result of disrupted blood flow. This can occur at birth, or later as a result of stroke, cerebral palsy, or traumatic brain injury (in this case hemorrhage.)

    If the person experiences injury on the right side of the brain, then the left side of the body will be affected. If the person experiences injury on the left side of the brain, then the right side of the brain will be affected.


  3. the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body and the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body
