• What is the difference between a neurologist and a neurosurgeon?

A neurologist specializes in diagnosing and treating diseases that affect the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system using medications and non-surgical treatments. On the other hand, a neurosurgeon is a surgeon who intervenes surgically to treat conditions that require operations, such as brain tumors, spinal fractures and injuries, or epileptic foci as a definitive treatment. 

• What is the difference between a neurologist and a psychiatrist?

A neurologist focuses on organic diseases affecting the nervous system, such as epilepsy, strokes, or multiple sclerosis. 

A psychiatrist, however, deals with mental and psychological disorders, such as depression, anxiety, or schizophrenia. 

In other words, the neurologist treats "neurological diseases," while the psychiatrist treats "mental and behavioral disorders." 

• Are neurological diseases hereditary?

Neurological diseases can be hereditary in some cases, but not all of them. Diseases like Huntington’s disease or certain types of epilepsy may be passed down through genes. 

However, many other neurological diseases, such as strokes or multiple sclerosis, are not directly linked to genetics. 

• Do neurological diseases only affect the elderly?

Neurological diseases are not limited to the elderly. While some conditions like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease are more common with aging, other neurological diseases, such as epilepsy or migraines, can affect young people and even children. 

• How do neurological diseases manifest in a patient?

Neurological diseases can present a variety of symptoms depending on the affected part of the nervous system. Common symptoms include: 

• Numbness or tingling in the limbs (often linked to peripheral nerve problems).
• Muscle weakness or difficulty moving (could indicate conditions like multiple sclerosis or stroke).
• Limb spasms or involuntary tremors (commonly associated with epilepsy or movement disorders).
• Back or neck pain radiating to the limbs (could be a sign of a herniated disc or spinal issues).

• Can neurological symptoms be related to non-neurological diseases?

Yes, some neurological symptoms can be caused by other medical conditions, such as thyroid disorders, vitamin deficiencies, or even heart disease. 

That’s why neurologists at Care Hospital work in close coordination with specialists from other departments to ensure a comprehensive and accurate diagnosis.
