FAQ's Related to Neurosurgeon

Neurosurgeons provide surgical treatment for the conditions of the brain and spine. They are considered some of the highly experienced and trained specialists in medicine and are involved in consulting with other doctors about various cases. Neurosurgeons treat people with a range of neurological issues, such as lower back pain, brain tumor, carpal tunnel syndrome, and peripheral nervous system disorders. Neurosurgeons work both in private and public hospitals. They also see patients in a clinic or surgery. They work closely with specialists and health professionals as part of a medical team, such as a critical care team or a hospital stroke team.

A neurosurgeon will recommend you one or more diagnostic tests before and during consultation in order to find out the case of the condition and start the right treatment. A neurological examination is the assessment of motor responses and sensory neuron and includes the following:

  • Myelogram
  • Physical Exam
  • Lumbar Puncture
  • Spinal MRI
  • Blood Tests
  • Spinal X-ray
  • MRI Brain
  • CT Brain
  • Neurological exam
  • Nerve conduction velocity studies/electromyography

Some of the diagnostic tests required before and during a consultation with a neurosurgeon are::

  1. Cerebral Angiogram
  2. CT Myelogram
  3. CT Scans
  4. Lumbar Puncture
  5. MRI Scans
  6. X-ray Imaging
  7. Electroencephalogram
  8. Electromyogram
  9. Spinal tap CT

Here are some of the top signs that suggest you should consult a neurosurgeon:

  1. Numbness and pain
  2. Weak grip
  3. Persistent headache/migraine
  4. Impaired movement
  5. Seizures
  6. Balance issues

The nervous system is a complex part of the body, so neurosurgeons perform complicated surgeries. They address the issues of the entire nervous system and offer treatment of every part of the body affected by the nerves. They also help in the diagnosis of symptoms of the nervous system and come up with minimally invasive treatment plans.
