La parálisis (del latín paraly̆sis, y este del griego παράλυσις parálysis) es una pérdida o disminución de la motricidad o de la contractilidad de uno o varios músculos debida a lesiones de las vías nerviosas o de los mismos músculos. Si esta es parcial, se habla de paresia. Las parálisis de origen nervioso pueden ser centrales o periféricas. Algunas enfermedades metabólicas del sistema muscular pueden ser responsables de parálisis sin lesión nerviosa o muscular, como, por ejemplo, la miastenia.
