Nerve System Disorders

Nerve system disorders, also known as conversion or neuro-system disorders, are new and broad terms that describe nervous system (neurological) symptoms. These aren't explained by a neurological disease or other related medical condition. The symptoms, on the other hand, are real and can cause severe anguish or make it difficult to function. At CARE Hospitals, a proper diagnosis is made to counteract these systems. 

• Nervous System disorders do not have any underlying cause.

• A neurological issue or a reaction to stress or psychological or physical trauma can cause a syndrome but cannot be the reason for the disorder.

• It does not affect the brain’s structure but its functioning. They can be a stroke, multiple sclerosis, infection, or injury. 

• Depending on the type of nervous system disorder, signs and symptoms can have different patterns.

• The disorder affects your mobility or senses, like your ability to walk, swallow, see, or hear. 

• These symptoms can be mild, moderate, or severe, and they can be permanent.

There are a lot of symptoms associated with nervous system disorders. Although a proper diagnosis at CARE Hospitals can only treat you it is important to keep a check on the following-

If you have any concerns or symptoms that are interfering with your ability to function, seek medical help at CARE Hospitals. If the underlying reason is a neurological disorder or another medical problem, it's critical to get a diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. Treatment may help alleviate symptoms and avoid future difficulties. 

Diagnosis

• No conventional testing is conducted for nerve system disorders. The most common method of diagnosis at CARE Hospitals is to analyse existing symptoms and rule out any neurological or other medical conditions that could be causing them.

• The presence of certain patterns of signs and symptoms on an MRI or abnormalities on an EEG is used to identify functional neurologic disease. These are not restricted to the absence of structural alterations.

• Our neurologists conduct testing and diagnosis, but a psychiatrist or other mental health expert can also be involved. You can be diagnosed with a functional neurological disorder (FND), a functional neurological symptom disorder (FNSD), or a conversion disorder. Our doctors are the best neurologists experts in India who may provide the proper diagnosis thereafter.

• Your disorder can be referred to by a word that describes the type of functional neurological symptoms you are experiencing. If your symptoms include difficulty walking, your doctor can diagnose you with functional gait disorder or functional weakness.

Evaluation

• Physical exam- The doctor may check and ask you questions about your health, signs, and symptoms. Several tests can rule out neurological disease or other medical conditions. They may help to know the root cause of the problem. The tests you'll have are based on your indicators and symptoms.

• Psychiatric exam- You may need a psychiatrist as they can help you with your thoughts, feelings, and actions, as well as explain your symptoms. Information from family members or others is also useful.

• Diagnostic criteria in the DSM-5-The diagnosis can be compared to the diagnosis in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5).

Medical Treatments 

• Physical therapy- Your movement and functionalities can improve through physical or occupational therapy.

• Speech therapy- Working with a speech therapist can assist if you're having trouble speaking or swallowing.

• Stress reduction- Progressive muscle relaxation, breathing exercises, physical activity, and exercise are all examples of stress reduction approaches. Music, talking to another person, or changing the way you walk or move are all examples of distraction strategies.

Mental Health 

• Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT)- CBT is a sort of psychotherapy that helps one become aware of erroneous or negative thinking. It can see things more clearly and behave more effectively. CBT can also teach one how to effectively manage stressful circumstances and symptoms in your life. This could be especially helpful if one is experiencing non-epileptic seizures. If a person has interpersonal issues or a history of trauma or abuse, they may benefit from different types of psychotherapy.

• Other conditions- Anxiety, depression, and other mental health problems can exacerbate the symptoms of a nervous system condition.
