Conditions Treated by Dr. Manoramadevi K. Rajan
Stroke
A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is blocked or bleeding occurs in the brain. Sudden facial drooping, weakness on one side or difficulty speaking requires immediate emergency care.
Epilepsy and Seizures
Epilepsy causes recurrent seizures that may involve involuntary movements or brief changes in awareness. Assessment and tests, such as an EEG or brain imaging, help guide appropriate treatment.
Headache and Migraine
Migraines may cause throbbing head pain, nausea and sensitivity to light or sound. Identifying headache patterns and triggers can help guide treatment. A sudden, severe headache requires urgent medical attention.
Memory Loss and Dementia
Persistent memory problems, confusion or difficulty with everyday tasks may need medical evaluation. Identifying the cause can help determine suitable treatment and support.
Parkinson’s Disease and Tremor
Parkinson’s disease can cause tremors, muscle stiffness, slowed movement and balance difficulties. Neurological assessment helps identify the cause and guide symptom management.
Dizziness and Vertigo
Vertigo creates a sensation of spinning and may result from inner-ear or neurological conditions. Assessment helps identify the cause, particularly when dizziness occurs with other symptoms.
Nerve and Muscle Disorders
Numbness, tingling, burning sensations and muscle weakness may indicate nerve or muscle conditions. Identifying the underlying cause helps guide appropriate care.
Multiple Sclerosis and Autoimmune Neurological Conditions
These conditions can affect the nervous system and cause symptoms such as weakness, numbness, vision changes and difficulty walking. Diagnosis and ongoing management depend on the specific condition and individual needs.
When Should You Consult a Neurologist?
Consider consulting a neurologist if you experience:
- Frequent or persistent headaches.
- Repeated seizures or unexplained episodes of altered awareness.
- Ongoing dizziness or problems with balance.
- Numbness, tingling or unexplained weakness in the arms or legs.
- Tremors, muscle stiffness or changes in movement.
- Memory problems that interfere with daily activities.
- Persistent nerve pain or symptoms suggesting a neurological condition.
Seek emergency care for sudden facial drooping, one-sided weakness, difficulty speaking, vision loss or a sudden severe headache. These may indicate a medical emergency.
