Neurologist in Bangalore helps 60 year-old with a neurological disorder

Neurology is the branch of medicine that deals with diseases and disorders of the Nervous system (that comprises of the brain and the spinal chord, including the muscles, tissues and veins connected to them.) And the doctor dealing in this specialty is called a Neurologist. While a disease or disorder in any part of one's body can be dangerous and sometimes fatal; health issues in the Nervous system can particularly be problematic.

The most common neurological disorders include epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Dimentia and stroke. While Alzheimer is considered to be transferred genetically, many other disorders can affect anyone. The most common symptoms that could be a sign for a neurological health issue are: Muscle weakness, Seizures, Decreased alertness and Unexplained pain in different parts of the body, among other things. While some disorders can have defined and specific symptoms that help identify the root cause of the problem, some disorders can have vague symptoms, making the problem difficult to diagnose.

This is sometimes the reason behind why most people reach out to doctors when its too late. Experts advise that unusual symptoms like the ones mentioned above should never be ignored. Thankfully, Arundhati Sharma didn't. Working for a popular sports channel in Bangalore and living with her family, Arundhati noticed that 60 year old father's hands were involuntarily trembling, he changed the way he spoke and suddenly seemed to look aged because of other reasons like this. She then called us up and asked her to suggest neurologist in Bangalore for her father. On seeing the doctor, he was diagnosed with the Parkinson'e disease. While there is no cure for the disease, the doctor gave him effective medicines to control the symptoms and this has improved the Arundhati's father's life tremendously.
