Description

Structural, electrical or biochemical abnormalities in the brain, spinal cord and nerves can result in a number of clinical conditions that may be termed as neurological disorders. They are characterized by paralysis, poor coordination, muscle weakness, confusion, altered levels of consciousness, etc. Neurological problems may occur due to a range of different factors, such as congenital abnormalities and disorders, brain, spine or nerve injury, etc. Metal poisoning, malnutrition and gluten sensitivity also induce neurological problems. Further, conditions that interact with the nervous system like autoimmune disorders, cerebrovascular disorders or lysosomal storage diseases can also contribute to neurological deterioration. The management of neurological disorders requires a comprehensive approach. This may include medication, pain management, physiotherapy, preventative measures, lifestyle changes and surgery.

The objective of this book is to give a general view of the different neurological disorders along with their causes and treatment. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, it targets students and professionals.
