Neurological disorders, though equally or
even more serious and disabling as cardiac (heart) problem never
received high importance as that cardiac (heart) diseases. Most of the
neurological diseases are chronic and require long term followup and
treatment.
It was never realized in the past that if these disorders are treated
early, disability and dependence on patient can be limited or even
avoided altogether.
Today acute stroke is given almost equal importance as is given to
acute myocardial infarction.
Disease like Neuropathy, Myopathy, and Headache & Backaches, if dealt
with early can limit the ultimate disability that remains even after
surgical treatment.
In our setup, Chronic diseases like Dementia have never got importance
as it is considered a Sequelae of normal aging. Studies have proved it
wrong and now it is classified as a degenrative disease occurring due
to varied causes.
In view of changing medical science & coming up of new drug/therapies,
Neurological diseases, being ignored in the past, have found a new
place & importance in emergency/ OPD treatment room.
It is our endeavor to bring to the notice of general public the
importance of early and latest treatment which can saved patients the
disability and agony they go through once the disease becomes
untreatable or leaves significant handicap thereafter.
