One of the important arenas of medical practice is the field of neuromedicine and neurosurgery. Both these specialities are associated with treatment of diseases associated with the nervous system in our body. The domain of practice is related to diseases of nerves, The system also acts to transmit impulses to the muscles of the heart, intestine, urinary bladder and all over the somatic and other visceral structures in our body. Hence the normal functioning of nervous system is a key attribute for an individual’s survival. However, the nervous system is challenged by various diseases which are either organic or develop from various injuries. Such injuries may occur accidentally or might be work related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). The broader field of practice for both the specialities fall under Neurology. Neurophysicians are those clinical practitioners who treat neurological diseases through use of medicine and non-surgical interventions. The field they specialize are treatment of Neurosurgeons are those clinical practitioners who treat neurological diseases through use of medicine and surgical interventions. When the surgical intervention is the recommended mode of approach for treatment of neurological challenges, neurosurgeons are the most desired speciality. These practitioners intervene both acute and chronic problems. For example, acute forms include burr-hole surgery or craniotomy to eliminate out blood from subdural spaces.

Neuromuscular disorders affect the nerves that control certain voluntary muscles — they’re the muscles you can choose to move such as the ones in your arms, legs, or face. Disorders that affect voluntary muscles can be genetically inherited (passed down from your parents) or may develop over time as a complication of certain health conditions such as an autoimmune disorder. This article takes a look at the different types of neuromuscular disorders, what their symptoms include, and what treatments may help. Common neuromuscular disorders include: • Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS): This • Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT disease): This • Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP): This • Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS): This • Lambert-Eaton syndrome: This • Multiple sclerosis (MS): This • Myasthenia gravis: This • Peripheral neuropathy: This • Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA): This The symptoms you experience with a neuromuscular disorder vary by the disorder you have. The same goes with the severity of those symptoms. One person may have very mild symptoms while another person may have life threatening symptoms. Likewise, the onset of symptoms can range from infancy to adulthood. The progress of symptoms may be slow, rapid, or even change over time. Symptoms may include: • weakness in the muscles • wastage of the muscles • cramps in the muscles • stiffness (spasticity) in the muscles • pain in the muscles • difficulty breathing • difficulty swallowing • issues...

Neurology at Highland Hospital What is a Neurologist? Introduction to Neurology Neurology is the branch of medicine concerned with the study and treatment of disorders of the nervous system. The nervous system is a complex, sophisticated system that regulates and coordinates body activities. It has two major divisions: • Central nervous system: the brain and spinal cord • Peripheral nervous system: all other neural elements, such as eyes, ears, skin, and other "sensory receptors" A doctor who specializes in neurology is called a neurologist. The neurologist treats disorders that affect the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, such as: • Cerebrovascular disease, such as stroke • Demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, such as multiple sclerosis • Headache disorders • Infections of the brain and peripheral nervous system • Movement disorders, such as Parkinson's disease • Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease) • Seizure disorders, such as epilepsy • Spinal cord disorders • Speech and language disorders Neurologists do not perform surgery. If one of their patients requires surgery, they refer them to a neurosurgeon.
