I had "more than normal" at 32 after having a terrible bike accident and landing head first on the road. 2, 5 years later I collapsed, they found a calcified thoracic disk lodged in my spinal cord compressing it, from the accident. I got cateracts from concussion and the hyperintensities were from brain injury that went undiagnosed. ..They also found black holes from ischemia.
This man is not explaining that hyperintensities can be from axonial shearing, and in fact those hyperintensities were trying to tell arrogant doctors I had an injury. They are not normal for young adults!!!

But how to stop this pathology to attack the brain??

[timmyhiggins]

I had an Mri yesterday. All was good but a few small white lesions at frontal lobe. The neurologist didn't even tell me and I had to read for myself. I'm 42.

Having cardiovascular risk factors, such as high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar (from diabetes), high dietary fat intake (high cholesterol) and smoking can all increase the number of white matter spots or lesions in your brain.

Live a healthy life, don't eat processed food, don't sit for more than 50 minutes at a time, don't live near toxic waste dumps like Florida, Texas, Eastern Arizona, Kern county or the San Joaquin Valley in California, within 50 miles of East Palestine in Ohio, within 45 miles of Flint Michigan, etc... look at the water, air and soil health of where you live. Eat foods that repair rather than damage your body.... This should be common sense

I just had a brain scan and had these my Dr told me I have dementia. I'm 48 and FREAKING OUT!!

[lisaadams]

My partner had one and confirmed there was "a small dot'' but they didnt do anything to make sure why.

[chicfromthesticks]

Great. Or not so... im 48 with 40+ white matter hyperintensities. What does this mean for me?

[minimalistknitter]

How can you decrease the likelihood of those white dots occurring?

[jakobausterlitz]

I've got a few and my memory has been failing.

[matthewbolling]

I have brain cyst with white matter
In the left frontal lobe
Have had it since 2020

[Rene-uzeb]

Lets call it the white dot disease, since you haven't figured out anything else

[martinfricek]

Can I have a contact email for the professor?
