considered as early signs. In later stages, patient experience impaired
judgment, confusion, behavior changes and also difficulty speaking, walking and
swallowing food.
Vascular
dementia: Inability to perform a task or impaired judgment are the initial
symptom, the memory loss is often associated with the symptoms of Alzheimer's.
It occurs due to the brain injuries like blood vessel blockage and microscopic
bleeding. The impairment completely depends upon the location of brain injury
which determines the thinking and physical functioning of the patient.

same as Alzheimer’s. Patients experience clear visual hallucinations, sleep
disturbances and muscle rigidity.
