For those of us who don't suffer from this puzzling disease, it is hard to imagine how such a thing is even possible. We take a simple thing like reading so for granted. And yet there are those for whom reading is an adventure in every sense of the word. If you're wondering what causes Dyslexia, or even what it is, this is an article that you'll probably want to read. You'll also discover treatments that are used for people who suffer from dyslexia. Fortunately, there is hope.

For those who aren't quite sure what dyslexia is, it's a disease where people have trouble understanding the written word. This usually shows up very early in life when we are children. The bigger problem with this disease is that in our modern society, we learn by reading. Therefore, if we have trouble reading, we then have trouble learning, which in turn leads to more difficulty in reading because we can't learn. It becomes a vicious cycle.

So, just what are the symptoms of somebody who has dyslexia? Well, the most common symptom is the reversing of words when reading. For example, given this short sentence, "I went to the store." a person with dyslexia may read it as "I to went store the" or possibly some other combination of those words. This will vary from person to person. The point is, when you're reading sentences not as they've been intended, it is very difficult to get the true meaning of those sentences and learn from them. Also, there are other symptoms such as mixing up letters in a word or even reading from right to left. No two people will have the same symptoms.

So, what causes dyslexia? While nobody is 100% certain, it appears, at least from the research that has been done, that dyslexia is caused by a genetic disorder of the brain. The brain of a person who suffers from dyslexia works differently than what we would call a "normal" brain. More importantly, it appears that most children who suffer from dyslexia have parents or grandparents who also suffered from learning disabilities. Therefore, it appears that this problem is inherited.

Diagnosing dyslexia is actually very easy. If your child is having difficulty learning or reading or both, there are simple tests that can be done to determine if your child is indeed dyslexic. Sentence Verification Tests (SVT) are used to determine if a child is reversing of mixing up the words in a sentence. These tests are very reliable and accurate.

There is no drug to treat dyslexia. Dyslexia is treated via education and tools that are used to get the child to rearrange the words correctly in their brain so that they can understand what they are reading. There are a variety of methods that professionals use in order to accomplish this. Recently, in Great Britain, new exercises to stimulate parts of the brain have shown to be very effective.

Many advances have been made in this area and children who suffer from dyslexia have excellent chances to lead normal and productive lives if this problem is caught early. So if your child shows difficulty learning, take him or her to be tested immediately.
