When you should see a Neurosurgeon?
You take headache medication often
Headaches are common but some are much more serious than others. How do you know when yours warrants a trip to a neurologist?
The following signs indicate your headaches may be caused by a neurological issue,
If you get frequent headaches, it’s tempting to take medication for them regularly. However, this could be a sign of a more serious condition. It is important to realize that some over-the-counter medicines can actually make headaches worse if they are taken too frequently. Also, over-the-counter medicines can do damage to the stomach, kidneys, and liver if taken in excess.
Headaches disrupt daily activities
A visit with your primary care physician is a good place to start for headaches that are not disabling but more of a nuisance. However, immobilizing headaches may warrant a trip to a neurologist.
Patients should see a neurologist for any headache that is disabling. This applies to you if you have to stop what you are doing and lie down during a headache.
Back Ache
Every back pain and neck pain patient is unique, with different degrees of problems associated with a bone or disc abnormality. A neurosurgeon is trained to discover the causes of symptoms. Back injuries are a long-term problem, and to fix them a great deal of commitment is required of the patient. That commitment can keep you healthy and out of surgery, but you can’t do it on your own. A Good neurosurgeon can help you to treat backache with the help of medicine and non-surgical procedures.
