Neurology and Neurosurgery

Neurology is a medical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating disorders of the nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Neurologists address conditions such as migraines, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and strokes through medical management and therapies. Neurosurgery, on the other hand, involves surgical intervention for conditions affecting the nervous system. Neurosurgeons perform procedures like brain and spinal cord surgeries to treat tumors, traumatic injuries, or structural abnormalities. Both fields work together to manage complex neurological issues, with neurologists providing non-surgical care and neurosurgeons offering specialized surgical treatments.
