Are You Also Becoming Forgetful? Beware – It Might Not Just Be Age, But a Serious Neurological Warning

Pathankot, June 2, 2025 — In today’s fast-paced life, rising mental stress and changing lifestyles, forgetting things often is becoming increasingly common — but dismissing it as just a part of aging can be dangerous. Neurological conditions are no longer limited to strokes or seizures; they can silently affect your memory, thinking abilities, and even your ability to recognize people or surroundings.
That’s the key message being shared by Dr. Ishtiyaq Hussain, Senior Neurologist at PMC Hospital, Pathankot (A Unit of EMC Hospitals), who is leading an awareness campaign on neuro disorders.
Dr. Hussain explains that forgetfulness is no longer just an age-related issue. When a person frequently forgets daily tasks, loses track of directions or locations, repeats the same things, faces difficulty in conversations, or shows emotional instability — these could be signs of deeper neurological changes. Ignoring such symptoms could be the first step toward conditions like dementia, Alzheimer’s, or Parkinson’s disease.

Dr. Hussain’s Advice: Listen to Your Brain’s Warnings
“The brain is the control center of the body,” says Dr. Hussain. “If it’s showing signs of change, it’s time to act. Delaying treatment can cost someone their quality of life. If you or a loved one is facing frequent forgetfulness or confusion, consult a neurologist without delay.”
