[|Human|] do certain parts of the brain affect different functions like for instance walking and balancing is on part of brain? and talking another? therefore if youre diagnosed with multiple lesions is it directly related to the area of the brain the lesions are located?
[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Yes, it is true that different parts of the body are responsible for different functions. Neurology is based on finding the possible lesion in the brain, based on the neurological deficits encountered during the neurological exam. This is also called topical diagnosis, because we relate the type of dysfunction with the possible region in the brain, responsible for this. If many brain lesions are present (like in repeated stroke or multiple sclerosis), the patient has many deficits which can be motor, sensory, balance, cranial nerves, etc. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Kind regards,
