What does a neurologist treat?
A doctor specializing in the neurology field is called a neurologist. The neurologist treats disorders that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, such as stroke which is a cerebrovascular disease. The specialist is experienced in diagnosing and treating conditions associated with central nervous systems, like multiple sclerosis and peripheral nervous system such as carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.
What are some common neurological disorders?
Understanding symptoms of neurological disorders is important, from acute conditions like headaches, migraines, epilepsy to seizures all are considered as neurological disorders. Some of the conditions for which patients need close management & treatment are acute spinal cord injury, brain tumors, strokes, cerebral aneurysm, dementia (Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease), and others.
What is a neurological examination like?
From coordination exam, and physical exam to MRI, CT scan can be advised depending on the signs and symptoms of the patient. Our nervous system is very complex and controls many parts of the body.
