Treatments
Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer’s disease is a condition where the brain gradually loses its ability to function properly, causing memory loss and confusion over time. It happens when harmful proteins build up in the brain, damaging brain cells and affecting how people think, remember, and communicate. Early detection through medical tests can help doctors start treatment sooner, which may slow down the disease and help patients maintain better quality of life. Read More
Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological condition that affects movement and coordination, causing symptoms like tremors, stiffness, and slow movement due to the loss of nerve cells that produce dopamine in the brain. This disease develops gradually over time and may also affect non-motor functions such as sleep, mood, and cognitive ability as it progresses. While there is currently no cure, various medications and treatment options are available to help manage symptoms, improve mobility, and maintain a better quality of life for patients. Read More
Epilepsy
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder in which the brain experiences repeated, unprovoked seizures caused by abnormal electrical activity in nerve cells. Seizures can start in one part of the brain (focal seizures) or involve both sides (generalized seizures), and may cause symptoms ranging from brief lapses of awareness to muscle jerking, stiffness, or loss of consciousness depending on where the seizure occurs. Anti-seizure medications are the primary treatment, and early diagnosis with proper medication management can help most patients control their seizures and lead normal, productive lives. Read More
Headache / Migraine
Headaches and migraines are common conditions causing head pain—tension headaches produce a constant dull ache from stress or muscle tightness, while migraines cause severe throbbing pain usually on one side with nausea and sensitivity to light. Both are triggered by stress, poor sleep, caffeine, and hormonal changes, but migraines are typically more severe and disabling. Treatment includes pain relief medications, lifestyle changes, stress management, and preventive therapies to help manage symptoms and maintain daily activities. Read More
Neck and Back Pain
Neck and back pain are common conditions caused by poor posture, muscle strain, wear and tear of the spine, or nerve compression from herniated discs and bone spurs. Pain can range from mild stiffness to severe discomfort that radiates into the arms or legs when nerves are affected, and may develop suddenly from injury or gradually from age-related changes. Treatment includes physical therapy, exercise, pain relief medications, heat therapy, and in some cases steroid injections or other procedures, with most cases improving significantly through conservative care and lifestyle modifications. Read More
Paralysis
Paralysis is the loss of muscle control or movement in one or more parts of the body caused by damage to the nervous system from stroke, spinal cord injury, brain trauma, or other neurological conditions. The severity can range from partial weakness (paresis) affecting one limb to complete paralysis affecting multiple body parts, depending on the extent and location of nerve damage. Modern rehabilitation programs, including physical therapy, electrical stimulation, and specialized exercises, help activate the brain’s neuroplasticity to rebuild neural pathways, enabling many patients to regain significant movement and function even after severe injuries. Read More
Insomnia
Insomnia is a sleep disorder where people have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or getting restful sleep, even when they have enough time to sleep. It can be caused by stress, anxiety, medical conditions, poor sleep habits, or neurological factors that disrupt the brain’s natural sleep-wake cycle. Treatment often includes improving sleep hygiene, relaxation techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy, and sometimes medications to help restore healthy sleep patterns and improve daytime functioning. Read More
Vertigo / Dizziness & Syncope
Vertigo and dizziness are sensations of spinning or lightheadedness often caused by inner ear problems, balance disorders, or reduced blood flow to the brain, while syncope is a sudden temporary loss of consciousness from brief drops in blood pressure or heart rate. These conditions can be triggered by dehydration, medications, anxiety, or neurological issues affecting the brain’s balance centers. Treatment focuses on identifying the underlying cause through specific tests, then using medications, vestibular rehabilitation exercises, or lifestyle changes to restore balance and prevent fainting episodes. Read More
Stroke
Stroke happens when blood flow to the brain stops, often from atherosclerosis causing plaque buildup and clots that block vessels (ischemic stroke) or from bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke), leading to brain cell death without oxygen. Common symptoms include sudden weakness on one side, face drooping, slurred speech, confusion, severe headache, or vision problems, requiring immediate medical care. Treatment uses clot-busting drugs for ischemic strokes, surgery for bleeding, and rehab to regain functions while preventing future strokes through lifestyle changes and medications. Read More
Neuropathy and Myopathy
Neuropathy is damage to peripheral nerves causing weakness, numbness, and pain usually in the hands and feet, often triggered by diabetes, infections, toxins, or inherited conditions, while myopathy is muscle disease causing weakness and fatigue from muscle fiber damage or dysfunction. Both conditions develop gradually and can significantly impact daily activities, with neuropathy sometimes causing burning sensations and myopathy causing difficulty climbing stairs or lifting objects. Treatment includes managing underlying causes, physical therapy, medications for symptom relief, and lifestyle modifications to slow progression and maintain muscle strength and nerve function. Read More
Sciatica / Slipped Disc
Sciatica is pain radiating along the sciatic nerve from the lower back to the leg, usually caused by a slipped disc pressing on the nerve root, leading to sharp pain, numbness, or tingling. Slipped discs occur when the soft cushion between spinal bones bulges out and irritates nearby nerves, often from heavy lifting, poor posture, or age-related wear. Most cases improve with rest, physical therapy, pain medications, and exercises to strengthen the back, though severe cases may need injections or surgery to relieve nerve pressure. Read More
Agitation
Agitation is a state of restlessness, irritability, or excessive motor activity often seen in neurological conditions like dementia, stroke recovery, or brain injuries, where patients may show anxiety, pacing, or verbal outbursts. It commonly arises from brain chemical imbalances, pain, confusion, medication side effects, or environmental triggers that overwhelm the nervous system. Management focuses on identifying causes, using calming techniques, adjusting medications, and creating a safe environment to reduce episodes and improve patient comfort. Read More
Brain Fever
Brain fever is inflammation of the protective membranes around the brain and spinal cord (meningitis) usually caused by viral or bacterial infections, presenting with high fever, severe headache, stiff neck, and confusion. The infection triggers swelling and irritation of the meninges, leading to sensitivity to light, nausea, vomiting, and in severe cases, seizures or loss of consciousness if not treated promptly. Early diagnosis through blood tests and spinal fluid analysis, followed by immediate treatment with antibiotics or antivirals, is critical to prevent serious complications and support full recovery. Read More
Encephalitis
Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain tissue itself, usually caused by viral infections like herpes or mosquito-borne viruses, presenting with high fever, severe headache, confusion, drowsiness, and sometimes seizures. The swelling of brain tissue disrupts normal brain function, leading to difficulty concentrating, weakness, personality changes, and in severe cases, loss of consciousness or coma. Early diagnosis through blood tests, spinal fluid analysis, and brain imaging, combined with immediate antiviral treatment, is crucial to reduce brain inflammation and prevent permanent neurological damage. Read More
Functional Neurological Disorder
Functional neurological disorder (FND) is a condition where the brain’s networks don’t work properly, causing symptoms like weakness, tremors, difficulty walking, or loss of sensation without any structural damage visible on brain scans or tests. The symptoms are real and not intentionally faked, often triggered by stress, trauma, or emotional events that affect how the brain processes sensory and motor information. Treatment involves a combination of physical therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and psychological support to help the brain “retrain” and restore normal function, with most patients showing significant improvement with appropriate care.
