Disorder that causes impaired language and speech is called aphasia. It occurs as a result of damage to particular areas of the brain that are responsible for language understaning, comprehension, and expression. This makes a person affected with aphasia, unable to communicate freely and effectively with others. Sometimes, a person who has suffered a stroke has aphasia.
There are two types of aphasia that is commonly seen. Broca aphasia takes place due to damage of the front part of the language-dominant side of the brain. On the other hand, Wernicke aphasia occurs because of damage of the side portion of the language-dominant part of the brain.

Aphasia is most likely to affect individuals who have had a stroke, brain injury, or brain tumor.
The best treatment for aphasia will depend on the individual's specific needs and the severity of their language impairment. It may include speech therapy, medications, and other supportive treatments.
Some people with aphasia may be able to recover at least some of their language abilities through speech therapy and other treatments.
Aphasia specialists may test for aphasia by having the patient perform language tasks, such as naming objects, repeating phrases, or reading and writing.
