A conk on the head can cause amnesia. By: Mohamed Anwar

What is the myth? In our every day lives people have casual or fatal accidents that cause time-based or permanent memory loss(amnesia). With no real cure on how to fix their memories, rumors have spread that causing more injury to ones self can bring back our lost memories.

Types of amnesia there are two main forms of amnesia: anterograde (the inability to form new memories) and retrograde (the inability to recall past events)

anterograde It is the inability to form new memories A person who has it still has memories of their past but cannot produce memories after-the event which caused anterograde- Its said to be caused by a brain injury or traumatizing event.(to Hippocampus) It cannot be determined if it is a permanent or not but is known to help people forget things

retrograde It is the inability to recall past events/actions A person who has this type of amnesia can create new memories but cannot recall past memories(may be able to remember some things) Said to be cased by brain injury(to Hippocampus) It can also cause permanent or temporary amnesia depending on the injury

Hippocampus responsible for encoding long-term memories named because its shape looks like a seahorse The hippocampus is known to be associated with the consolidation of episodic memories, which are memories of personally experienced events and their associated emotions.

3 Types of Memory Semantic memory is the memory of how one understands and other defines knowledge unrelated to specific experiences Procedural memory is memory for how to do things

Is the Myth True Unfortunately the Myth is not true and will probably most likely delay curing ones amnesia or just cause more brain damage to the person.

Ways to help with amnesia Best cure for amnesia is brain exercising which can be done by writing daily schedule in a notepad and memorizing those activities. Recalling some of these events without using the notepad helps memory enhancement grow. Therapies to boost memory are yoga and meditation. To improve memory, some eat warm decoction made using holy basil leaves Memory loss treatment Sufficient rest and sleep also helps in making brain function better.
