Neurology

Neurology is a highly specialized branch of Neuroscience that deals with the management of the entire gamut of diseases, disorders, and malignancies involving both central, as well as peripheral nervous systems. The former comprises the Brain and the Spinal Cord, whereas the latter includes the peripheral nerves and muscles. Neurological problems may range from simple disabilities to complex disorders and can prove to be debilitating, or even life-threatening, without proper care. Neurology focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, assessment, and management of such conditions using different surgical and non-surgical modalities.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE

• Dystonia - It is a movement disorder that is marked by the involuntary contraction of muscles, which leads to repeated twisting movement. Dystonia is progressive in nature, which means that it tends to aggravate with time. Surgical management of dystonia is possible with Deep Brain Stimulation, which is usually recommended when the patient is not responding to medication and therapy.
• Parkinson's disease - It is a progressive neurological disorder that affects the patient’s motor functions, giving rise to symptoms like slowing down of movement, frequent tremors, and muscle rigidity. The symptoms are not evident initially and these tend to aggravate slowly. There is no cure for Parkinson’s, however, the condition can be managed with the right treatment and care. 
• Essential Tremors - Essential tremor is the most common movement disorder, marked by the involuntary rhythmic shaking of the head, hands, legs or even voice. These can affect people belonging to any age group, however, they are more common in those above 60 years of age. The condition affects nearly 1 percent of the world's population and 5 percent of the population above 60 years of age. 
• Epilepsy - It is a neurological disorder marked by repeated seizures, loss of awareness, and change in behavior, all triggered by a disturbance in the brain activity. Epilepsy is non-communicable and can affect anyone, including small children. With the right treatment and care, epilepsy can be effectively managed with the right treatment and care.
• Alzheimer’s Disease - It is a progressive brain disorder that leads to the gradual loss of memory and thinking capacity. It is the most common cause of dementia (memory loss) and accounts for about 60 to 80 percent of the cases. Ageing is one of the major risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease but it can affect the younger population as well. 
• Headaches - It is a very common problem, marked by throbbing, sharp or dull pain in the head. There are several different types of headaches, classified on the basis of frequency, intensity, and location. Primary headaches are caused by overactivity of the pain-sensitive areas of the brain whereas secondary headaches are a symptom of some underlying condition. 
• Cerebral Palsy - The term is used for various disorders that affect the patient’s movement, posture, and balance. It develops in early childhood and is a result of damage to the developing brain while the child is still inside the womb.
