6. Guillain Barre Syndrome
Auto-immune disorders occur when the body is attacked by the very immune system that is supposed to be defending it. There are numerous types of auto-immune conditions and Guillain Barre Syndrome is one of them. It is a condition that directly attacks the peripheral nerve system.
One of the main symptoms of the condition is that the muscles become gradually weaker. It can be caused by certain types of infection and some vaccines might also cause the condition, albeit very rarely. Other symptoms include numbness in the fingers and it is something you should get checked out as soon as possible.
