The slowly developing neurological disorder known as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) causes issues with speech, swallowing, balance, and eye movement. Although there isn't a cure, symptom management is the main goal of treatment (physiotherapy, speech therapy, eye care, and occasionally levodopa for stiffness). Maintaining quality of life is aided by fall prevention, supportive care, and routine neurological follow-up.
