Neurology

The area of medicine known as neurology is dedicated to understanding and treating nervous system problems. The nervous system controls and synchronizes bodily functions in a sophisticated and complex manner. There are two main divisions:

  • The brain and spinal cord are parts of the central nervous system.
  • Eyes, ears, skin, and other "sensory receptors" are examples of peripheral nervous system components.

A neurologist is a medical professional with expertise in neurology. Neurologists manage conditions that impact the nerves, spinal cord, and brain.

When should you consult with a Neurologist?

We encourage you to consult with a neurologist should you exhibit one or more of the symptoms below:

  • Strong or persistent headaches: Make an appointment with one of our neurologist if you suffer from migraines, especially if the symptoms are linked to neurological impairments or previous therapies have failed.
  • Enduring pain: If your pain is chronic and your primary care physician is unable to help you manage it because there may be another underlying explanation for the symptoms, our neurologists at Medcare are ready to assist!
  • Dizziness: Vertigo or trouble balancing could be symptoms of a more serious condition.
  • Tingling or numbness: Numbness or tingling may indicate a stroke or other medical condition, especially if it just affects one side of the body or appears quickly.

Specialized services offered by our Neurology Department

Among the conditions that the neurologist addresses are those that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, including:

  • vascular disease of the brain, such as stroke
  • disorders of the central nervous system can cause demyelination, including multiple sclerosis
  • headache conditions
  • brain and peripheral nervous system infections
  • Parkinson's disease is one example of a movement issue.

Procedures and Treatments under Neurology Care

A physical examination and a neurological examination will be conducted during your initial visit with a neurologist. A neurological examination will measure your coordination, reflexes, and muscle power. Your neurologist may require more testing in order to obtain a diagnosis because various illnesses can have similar symptoms.

Numerous techniques may be suggested by neurologists to aid in the diagnosis or treatment of a problem. These practices could involve:

  • A spinal puncture
  • Tensilon Test
  • Electroencephalogram
  • Electromyography
  • Nerve Conduction Studies
  • 24-hour EEG monitoring
  • 24-Hour video EEG

Neurologists may also employ imaging tests, including:

  • Positron emission tomography, often known as a PET scan,
  • magnetic resonance imaging,
  • or an MRI scan

The diagnostic processes may also involve angiography and sleep testing.
