Neurology Center

The brain is arguably the most complex organ in the human body and is recognized as the body’s command center, influencing every aspect of life.

However, conditions affecting the brain and nervous system, in general, emerge throughout the life course and are characterized by disruptions in brain growth, damage to the brain structure, and/or impaired brain functioning, resulting in the devastation of life’s happiness.

Fortunately, modern technology allows advanced treatment for brain health. People can visit a neurology center to get an intensive examination by a professional neurologist.

What is a Neurologist?

A neurologist is a medical doctor who diagnoses, treats, and manages disorders of the brain and nervous system (brain, spinal cord, and nerves). 

A neurologist knows the anatomy, function, and conditions that affect your nerves and nervous system. Your nervous system is your body’s command center. It controls everything you think, feel, and do — from moving your arm to the beating of your heart.

Most Common Neurological Disorders

Neurological disorders are central and peripheral nervous system diseases, that is, they occur in the brain, spine, and multiple nerves that connect both.

Some of the most common are epilepsy, Alzheimer’s and other dementias, strokes, migraine and other headaches, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, neurological infections, brain tumors, traumatic conditions of the nervous system such as head injuries and disorders caused by malnutrition.

When Should You Visit a Neurology Center?

The symptoms are signs that you should visit a neurology center to get a thorough examination:

Chronic or severe headaches

If you get migraine headaches, you should probably make an appointment with a neurologist, especially when the symptoms are associated with neurological deficits or tried treatments prove ineffective.

Chronic pain

If you get migraine headaches, you should probably make an appointment with a neurologist, especially when the symptoms are associated with neurological deficits or tried treatments prove ineffective.

Dizziness

Experiencing vertigo or having difficulty keeping your balance could be a sign of something more serious.

Numbness or tingling

Numbness or tingling, especially when it occurs on one side of the body or comes on suddenly, could be a sign of a stroke or other serious condition.

Movement problems

Difficulty walking, shuffling your feet, tremors, and unintentional jerks, can all be signs of a nervous system problem.

Memory problems or confusion

Worsening memory problems, personality changes or mixing up words could be signs of Alzheimer’s disease.
