Neurologist
Who is a neurologist?
A neurologist is a doctor who specialises in treating neurological disorders. They diagnose, prevent and treat diseases of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The proper functioning of the nervous system is essential for the health of the body, as it controls the coordinated work of all organs. At the same time, the nervous system is one of the most complex and multifunctional structures of our body, and unfortunately, the number of diseases associated with it is also quite diverse.
Neurological pathologies present with a wide range of symptoms that may not be specific in nature or location.
However, these signs may serve as an indicator of damage to the nervous system:
- Pain in the neck, chest area, back;
- Insomnia;
- Fainting;
- Constant headaches;
- Dizziness as an independent symptom accompanied by vomiting;
- Convulsions;
- Memory impairment (short-term, long-term);
- Impaired coordination of movements;
- Decreased skin sensitivity;
- Speech problems;
- Tremors of the limbs;
- Weakness in the muscles of the lower and upper limbs;
- Unsteady gait;
- Decreased attention span;
- Inability to concentrate;
- Decreased productivity;
- Unstable blood pressure;
- Anxiety;
- Depression;
- Constant fatigue that does not go away after sleep or prolonged rest.
These and other symptoms indicate nervous system disorders and the need to consult a professional. At the first appointment at our clinic, the doctor listens to the patient's complaints, assesses reflexes, muscle strength, and sensation, and examines the peripheral and autonomic nervous systems and the vestibular apparatus. To do this, the FORTEMED medical clinic uses specialised instruments and conducts painless tests that do not cause discomfort.
Neurological disorders can not only cause physical pain but also reduce quality of life and cause emotional discomfort. We therefore recommend that you make an appointment with a neurologist as soon as you suspect a neurological problem.
