Neurosurgical Procedures
What type of doctor is a Neurosurgeon?
A neurosurgeon is a medical doctor who specialises in the diagnosis, treatment, and surgical management of conditions affecting the nervous system. This includes the brain, spine and spinal cord.
When should you see a Neurosurgeon?
You should consider seeing a neurosurgeon if you have any of the following conditions or symptoms:
- Brain or Spinal Cord Injuries: If you have sustained a severe head injury or spinal cord injury, a neurosurgeon can provide expert care to address these issues.
- Brain Tumours: Neurosurgeons specialise in the surgical treatment of brain tumours. If you have been diagnosed with a brain tumour, a neurosurgeon can discuss surgical options with you.
- Spinal Disorders: This includes conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Neurosurgeons can provide surgical treatment options for these conditions.
- Stroke: Neurosurgeons can be involved in the surgical treatment of certain types of strokes, particularly those caused by bleeding in the brain (haemorrhagic strokes).
- Epilepsy: In certain cases where a brain lesion results in seizures, surgical management may help to reduce or eliminate seizures.
It's important to note that seeing a neurosurgeon doesn't always mean you'll require surgery. Neurosurgeons are highly trained specialists who can offer a wide range of treatment options, including non-surgical approaches such as medication, physical therapy, or other interventions.
