Neurology
న్యూరాలజీ
Neurology is the medical care of the brain, nerves and muscles. Headaches, fits, numbness, tremors and dizziness can have many causes, and a neurological assessment helps separate those that are harmless from those that need treatment. Conditions that need surgery can be referred to the neurosurgery team in the same hospital.
When to consider a consultation
- Frequent or severe headaches, or migraine
- Fits (seizures) or episodes of blackout
- Numbness, tingling or weakness in the hands or feet
- Dizziness or problems with balance
- Tremors, stiffness or slowness of movement
- Memory problems or confusion
- Follow-up after a stroke
These are common reasons people seek care. They do not diagnose a condition. Your doctor decides what applies to you.
Seek emergency care if
- Face drooping, arm weakness or slurred speech, even if it passes (call immediately)
- A fit lasting more than five minutes, or repeated fits without recovery
- Sudden, severe headache or headache with fever and a stiff neck
- Loss of consciousness

Common questions
Is every headache a sign of a serious problem?
No. Most headaches are not dangerous, but new, severe or changing headaches, or headaches with weakness, vomiting or vision changes, should be assessed.
Can epilepsy be controlled?
Many people with epilepsy achieve good control with the right medicines and regular follow-up. The plan depends on the type of seizure and your individual assessment.
