It may also include muscles, blood vessels and nerves. Other Neurological diseases are peripheral muscles and nerves, neuromuscular junctions and spinal cord.

We offer opinion of some of the best and expert neurologist who will treat the disorders of spinal cord, nerves and the brain. Some of treatment done by a neurologist are Epilepsy, Tremor, Stroke, Parkinson's disease, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Heartache, Pain, Alzheimer's disease, Sleep disorders, Spinal cord and brain injuries, Multiple sclerosis, Peripheral nerve disorders and Paediatric Neurology.

Paediatric Neurology

For children under 18 years of age, who are suffering from neurological problems, Paediatric Neurology is required. Neurological diseases and epilepsy are some of the major neurological issues of children. Paediatric neurologist often treats disorders of peripheral, central and autonomous nervous systems. They also treat the unique symptoms of epilepsy in children.

Some of the Neurological Disorders in Children are Autistic disorders, Congenital anomalies of the brain and Hydrocephalus, Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Attention Deficit (ADD), Headaches, Brain and spinal cord tumors, Seizure disorders, Concussion and head trauma, Balance and equilibrium, Metabolic-degenerative diseases of the brain, Neuromuscular disorders, Cerebral palsy, Neurofibromatosis, Tourette syndrome, tic disorders and movement disorders.

Some Major Symptoms of Neurological Disorders:

• Pain
• Weakness
• Tremor
• Seizures
• Headaches
• Memory loss
• Numbness

Here are the details of Neurological Diagnostic Tests:

Patients suffering from neurological problems have to go through a number of tests such as x-rays of the patient's skull and chest, neurological exam, patient history and physical exam. These tests are mainly performed for the determination of specific neurological injury or disorder. Nuclear medicine imaging is also performed which includes slight amount of radioactive materials. They are mainly used for examining organ structure and function. However, diagnostic imaging includes the usage of electrical charges and magnets for examining human anatomy. Here is the list of some of the common tests of Neurological problems:

• Biopsy
• Computed topography
• Intrathecal contrast-enhanced CT scan
• Cerebro fluid analysis
• Discography
• Brain scans
• Angiography
• Electromyography
• Electronystagmography (ENG)
• Electroencephalography (EEG)
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
• Polysomnogram
• Ultrasound imaging
• Thermography
• Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)

If you compare the cost of Neurology and paediatric neurology treatment in India then it is quite affordable and lower as compare to treatments, tests and expert consultancy in other countries.
