Neurology

Neurology deals with functions, and organic disorders of nerves, spinal cord, brain and the nervous system. The department of Neurology is committed to integrating their exceptional medical expertise, technology and innovation to offer best in class treatments that is at par with international standards.

We seek to provide the highest quality complete neurological care for our patients along with routine outdoor, indoor and dedicated emergency and neuro-intensive care especially after surgery and stroke.

Neurological diseases and conditions can affect nearly every part of your body and affect both adults and children.

We also provide long term customized care and ensure well being of our patients through our team of specialists, comprehensive services, and good follow up systems for patients especially those prone to severity. Over the years, we have gained confidence of the community and this has helped us to propel to greater commitments and achievements.

Highlights

The department works in multidisciplinary collaboration with Neurosurgery, Radiology, Neuro-rehabilitation, Psychiatry and General Medicine with sole aim to provide best and quality patient care at affordable costs.

Know About Few of the Common Neurological Disorders

Neurology Epilepsy

Epilepsy

It is a neurological disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal causing unusual behaviour, sensation and sometimes loss of awareness.

Neurology Migraine

Migraine

It is a headache that comes with severe throbbing Hemicranial pain associated with nausea, vomiting and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.

Neurology Stroke

Stroke

An ischemic stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced causing brain tissue damage.

Neurology Dementia

Dementia

It is a group of symptoms affecting memory, thinking and social abilities severely enough to interfere with your daily life.

Neurology Neuromuscular

Neuromuscular Disorder

Disorder affecting nerves, muscle, neuromuscular function leading to muscle weakness and sensory abnormalities.
Ex: Neuropathies, Muscular dystrophies, Myopathies, Myasthenia Gravis, motor neuron disorder.

Neurology Movement

Movement Disorder

Group of disorders which cause nausea along with increased, reduced or slow movements. E.g. Parkinson’s, Chorea, Dystomia, Myoclonus, Tics.

Neurology Demylinating

Demyelinating Disorder

Condition that causes damage to the protective covering of nerve fibers in brain, optic nerves and spinal cord.
Eg. Multiple Sclerosis, Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder(NMOSD), Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Associated Disease (MOGAD).

FAQs
What does a neurologist treat?
They treat disorders of the nervous system, brain ,spinal cord, nerves and muscles.
What does a neurosurgeon treat?
A neurosurgeon also treats disorders of nervous system, spine, brain using surgical methods in conjunction with non-surgical practices.
What are the signs of stroke?

The best way to determine that the symptoms are in favour of stroke is to think F.A.S.T

Face – Does the angle of mouth looks deviated or the smile is angled or distorted.the l;

Arms –Does one arm drift down after raising hands/arms

Speech-Does the speech is slurred or sounds unusual.

Time-If the above symptoms are noticed then it’s time to call for help

What are the symptoms of brain tumor?
  • Intense, prolonged or continuous headache over days or months.
  • Vomiting, squinting of eyes asymmetry of face.
  • Paralysis or weakness of one side of the body (Hemiparesis).
  • Double vision or Diplopia.
  • Fits, seizures or convulsions.
What are the causes of a Brain Haemorrhage?
  • Hemorrhagic stroke – Seen in 30-60% of hospital admissions due to stroke. High blood pressure (BP) increases the risk of bleed in the brain in stroke patients.
  • Head Injury.
  • Rupture of Aneurysm – An aneurysm is a defect in the wall of the artery. As age advances the pressure of the flow blood causes thinning of this wall with an out pouching of the vessel (aneurysm). When the aneurysm ruptures it leads to Brain Haemorrhage.
  • AVM (Aretrio Venous Malformation) – There is an abnormal connection between the arteries and veins. This is usually a defect from birth. Due to this abnormal connection, the pressure in the arteries is directly transmitted to the veins leading to bleed over a period of time. When the AVM occurs in the brain blood vessels, it leads Brain Hemorrhage.
  • Brain tumor bleed – Some brain tumors are very vascular and may at times spontaneously bleed.
  • Disorders of Bleeding and Clotting of Blood – Can cause bleeding anywhere in the body including brain.
