Child Neurology

Child neurology is a specialized field of medicine focused on diagnosing and treating neurological disorders in infants, children, and adolescents. This includes conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. Child neurologists address issues such as seizures, developmental delays, cerebral palsy, and headaches. They use a combination of medical history, physical examinations, and diagnostic tests like EEGs and MRI scans to understand and manage these disorders. Ultimately, their goal is to improve the neurological health and overall quality of life for children with these complex conditions.
