Neurology is the study and subsequent treatment of injuries and aberrations in the CNS (Central Nervous System) which include the spinal cord, nerves, and the brain. Although many people don’t tend to require a speciality Neurologist in their lifetime, it doesn’t hurt to go for a consultation when you don’t feel well because it surely will hurt a lot in the future if it’s something serious that went undetected.

Neurology is the study and subsequent treatment of injuries and aberrations in
the CNS (Central Nervous System) which include the spinal cord, nerves, and
the brain. Although many people don’t tend to require a speciality Neurologist
in their lifetime, it doesn’t hurt to go for a consultation when you don’t feel
well because it surely will hurt a lot in the future if it’s something serious that
went undetected.
Dr. Shailesh Jain (AIIMS) Neurosurgeon offers assorted treatment based on
your symptoms that can be divided into 6 categories:
• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Suspicion of mental illness
• Cases of memory loss
• Motor or Muscular problems
• Emergency
Headaches
A headache is often ignored by patients which in most cases it should be, but if
you are experiencing severe headaches that resemble a migraine, it is time to
book an appointment with a neurologist. Severe headaches that feel like a
stabbing pain in your head is your body giving you an indication of a
neurological problem building up inside you. If you experience intense, sudden,
and regular headaches on one side or both, please contact a neurologist to rule
out any neurological problems.
Dizziness
Dizziness often occurs due to some loss in motor balance, something that we will
discuss further down the line. Since the CNS is responsible for motor balance, dizziness
is an indicator that your central nervous system is weakened. Such a weakened CNS is
prone to symptoms like vertigo in which the victim feels a false sensation of movement
and spinning of his surroundings. Look up more about vertigo here, and if you think
you are experiencing said symptoms consult your neurologist immediately.
Suspicion of mental illness
Many mental illnesses have symptoms that involve a migraine or severe
headaches. The biggest reason for the high rate of undiagnosed mental
illnesses is because a lot of people tend to ignore their symptoms. Mental
illnesses can be best treated if they are diagnosed earlier. And with diseases
like Alzheimer’s that have over 50 million people afflicted worldwide, and with
1 in 4 patients of dementia going undiagnosed, a check-up with your
neurologist will go a long, long way should you be so unlucky to develop such a
horrid disease.
A Neurologist can treat the following diseases with the best effort of modern
medicine if a patient is diagnosed early:
• Parkinson’s disease
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS
• Epilepsy
• Alzheimer’s disease
• Brain Tumour
• Brain Haemorrhage
• Migraines
• Multiple Sclerosis
Cause of Memory loss
Memory loss doesn’t involve forgetting small, menial things regularly and then
remembering them after a while, that is a completely normal human brain
phenomenon. But experiencing major memory loss and going blank frequently
during the day is an indicator of a major neurological problem. In the cases of
children, having trouble in concentration is often passed up as laziness but if a
child has difficulties more frequently than others, a visit to a specialist might
help as studies show that neurological disorders like ADHD and Cerebral Palsy
are on the rise.
ADHD is as common as 11% (according to the CDC) among the student
population across the globe. Many cases go undiagnosed and the child suffers
his/her entire life. So a specialist visit has a high probability of diagnosing your
child’s pain that has been pushed down over the years.
Dr. Shailesh Jain is the best neurologist in Pitampura who provides consultation
on many avenues including neurological problems in a child. Book an
appointment with him here.
Motor or Muscle problems
Motor or muscle problems are one of the most important indicators that
something is not right with your central nervous system. Since the CNS is
responsible for motor movements of our body, a weakened CNS results in
frequent motor losses and movement disorders.
Frequent muscle stiffness, sudden difficulty in walking, and slowed down
movements are serious problems involving the central nervous system.
Tremors in your hands and problems in walking mean that you need to visit
your neurologist as it may be a manifestation of something sinister.
Emergencies
Emergencies involve a whole variety of problems that should immediately be
reported to a doctor. If a person is having sharp recurring pains on either or
both sides of their head, and these pains are causing dizziness, vision
impairment, and imbalance in motor movements, the person should be taken
to the hospital as soon as possible. Sudden paralysis or drooping features on
side of the face are indicators of a stroke. Call an ambulance and take the
victim to an emergency room without any delay. Even a little delay can result in
a major catastrophe as the damage done by a stroke is time-dependent.
