Concentration difficulty: Contents

Concentration difficulty: Introduction

Difficulty with concentration is a symptom that can arise from both physical and psychological or emotional problems. Concentration symptoms may or may not be associated with memory symptoms such as forgetfulness. Physical medical conditions that affect concentration include Lyme disease, whiplash, and various others. Psychological conditions that may impair concentration include depression, certain anxiety disorders, and stress. Sleep disorders such as insomnia or sleep apnea can also impair concentration ability. Any concentration or memory symptom needs prompt professional medical diagnosis.

Diagnosis Checklist: Questions your doctor may ask (and why!)

During a consultation, your doctor will use various techniques in their assessment of Concentration difficulty. Your doctor may ask several questions when assessing your condition. It is important to remember that your consultation is a two-way process and any extra information you can share with your doctor about your symptoms may help them with their diagnosis. Some of the questions your doctor may ask are listed below:

  • How long have you noticed the concentration difficulty? - to determine if acute or chronic. If acute in nature must consider delirium as a possible cause of concentration difficulty. Delirium is an acute confusional state due to many causes e.g. infection, drug intoxication, alcohol withdrawal, liver failure, kidney failure, hypoxia, low blood sugar, stroke, heart attack or head injury.
  • What is the age of the patient with concentration difficulty? - if a child must consider attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, learning disorders and inattention.
  • Sleep history?- e.g. obstructive sleep apnea, sleep deprivation, insomnia - are all common causes of concentration difficulties.
  • Is the concentration difficulty cyclical around the menstrual cycle? - may suggest premenstrual syndrome where the symptoms are worse before the period and are relieved with the period.
  • Have you been bitten by a tick? - may suggest Lyme disease.
