Neurology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the nervous system. The nervous system is a complex network of nerves and cells that carry messages between the brain and body and is responsible for controlling a wide range of bodily functions, including sensations, movement, and cognition.
There are many different neurological symptoms that can occur, depending on the specific disorder or disease affecting the nervous system. These can include problems with movement, such as weakness or paralysis; problems with sensation, such as numbness or tingling; problems with cognition, such as memory loss or difficulty concentrating; and problems with behavior such as dramatic changes in mood or personality.
Our medical practice specializes in the treatment of neurological conditions. Some of the diseases and disorders treated by our neurologist in New Jersey include:
A progressive brain disorder that affects memory, thinking, and behavior
A disease that affects the myelin sheath, a protective covering that surrounds the nerves in the brain and spinal cord
A sudden interruption of blood flow to the brain which can cause damage to the brain cells
A progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects movement
A type of headache characterized by severe pain, nausea, and light sensitivity
