What is Neurology?

Neurology is the branch of medicine dedicated to diagnosing and treating disorders of the nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. This field of treatment addresses conditions ranging from migraines and neuropathy to complex disorders like epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease. In the context of injuries, neurologists can help identify and treat concussions, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), nerve trauma, and post-injury headaches. We offer several different services and treatments, including:

  • Neurological assessments: Helps assess the extent of a patient’s neurological condition and identify any underlying problems that may be causing it.
  • Treatment options: Can include any number of different treatments and therapies designed to help patients manage their condition (such as medications, injections, and in some cases surgery).
  • Pain management: Helps patients manage pain symptoms by taking steps such as reducing stress levels or using various pain relief techniques.

Who is it For?

Seeing a neurologist can be valuable for concussion and TBI patients, or anyone experiencing persistent headaches, dizziness, memory issues, or mood changes. Those who may have nerve damage should also see a neurologist, so symptoms like tingling, numbness, or weakness could be a sign to contact a doctor. If you’re experiencing vertigo, unsteadiness, vision changes, or other balance issues after head or neck trauma, we recommend visiting a neurologist.

Benefits of Seeing a Neurologist

Because of their expertise in treating brain conditions, neurologists are the best doctor to see for something like a concussion. They can assess your injury and develop a personalized plan to return to regular activities without jeopardizing your brain health. Our targeted therapeutic interventions like nerve blocks can tailor therapies to directly address your symptoms and speed up recovery. If you have symptoms like pins and needles, numbness, blurry vision, persistent headaches, or similar sensations, it’s important to contact a neurologist.

Neurology FAQs

What do neurologists do and what do they treat?

Neurologists evaluate and manage concussions and mild TBI with methods such as cognitive testing. They can also treat post-traumatic headaches and migraines with medication, nerve blocks, and lifestyle changes. For peripheral nerve injuries, they might administer injections or other therapies.

What’s the difference between a neurologist and neurosurgeon?

While both disciplines focus on the brain, neurologists deal with non-surgical management of neurological conditions (medications, injections, rehabilitation, etc.). Neurosurgeons (as the name would suggest) are trained to perform surgical interventions on the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves for more severe injuries.

What should you expect at a neurologist appointment?

For your neurologist appointment, anticipate an evaluation of your symptom history and how they’re affecting your daily life, followed by an exam to check for things like coordination, reflexes, strength, memory, attention, and more. From there, your doctor will discuss any necessary imaging (MRIs, CT, etc.), and give you a clear explanation of treatment recommendations, timelines, and goals.

What should you wear to a neurologist appointment?

Because of the focus on evaluating balance, range of motion, and strength, we recommend wearing comfortable, loose-fitting clothing, flat shoes, and trying to minimize jewelry and accessories that might interfere with exams.
