Many elderly people often forget small things, such as forgetting to add salt when cooking, forgetting to bring watches and accessories when going out, or they may suspect that they are forgetful or have a more serious form of cognitive impairment. Neurologists pointed out that forgetfulness is different from cognitive impairment. Generally speaking, forgetfulness of trivial matters in life is just forgetfulness in medical terms, and it does not mean that the brain cells are damaged. However, if you cannot remember the way home, after repeated reminders from your family, If you still can't remember a certain point, or even do something that goes against common sense, such as forgetting to pay for something, it may be a sign of dementia and you need to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
