Conditions treated by a neurologist at ON Clinic Bratislava
A neurologist treats disorders of the central and peripheral nervous systems caused by injuries, infections, viruses, external factors (such as aging or improper lifestyle), or hereditary conditions. Neurologists at Doktorpro Bratislava specialize in:
- Peripheral nerve disorders;
- Brain diseases;
- Neurodegenerative conditions;
- Pain syndromes;
- Movement disorders (tremors, tics, restless leg syndrome, myoclonus – sudden muscle jerks);
- Neuromuscular pathologies (muscular dystrophy, myasthenia, paresis);
Additionally, a neurologist at Doktorpro in Bratislava diagnoses and treats migraines, nervous tics, and insomnia. Our specialist also provides post-treatment care for spinal and spinal cord injuries.
Indications for a neurologist consultation
A neurologist consultation is recommended both for preventive care and when experiencing symptoms that may indicate nervous system dysfunction. Common reasons to visit a neurologist include persistent headaches, muscle pain, drowsiness, increased fatigue, memory decline, or reduced cognitive performance. Other indications for a neurologist consultation:
- Previous head or spinal injuries, or surgical interventions;
- Sudden mood swings, anxiety, or depression;
- Family history of neurological disorders.
A neurological examination is also necessary for general nervous system assessment or post-stroke rehabilitation. Patients with Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, or dementia may require follow-up care with a neurological rehabilitation specialist for lifestyle management.
Neurology symptoms requiring an appointment with a neurologist
Common complaints prompting a visit to a neurologist include regular headaches or migraines, back or neck pain, dizziness and loss of coordination, increased muscle tone, spasms, and seizures. Other concerning symptoms to see a neurologist for include:
- Cognitive decline (memory loss, poor concentration, reduced mental performance);
- Stabbing or shooting neuropathic pain along nerve pathways;
- Hearing issues (tinnitus, hearing loss, or deafness);
- Visual disturbances (partial/complete loss of vision, blurred/double vision);
- Movement disorders (tremors, tics, dystonia (involuntary muscle contractions), akathisia (inability to stay still));
- Increased or decreased skin sensitivity to cold, heat, or pain;
- Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing);
- Numbness or tingling in limbs;
- Impaired smell or taste perception.
Neurological care may also be needed for such problems as sleep disorders (insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, uncontrollable drowsiness, or muscle twitching during sleep). Severe nervous system dysfunction may present as seizures, loss of consciousness, visual hallucinations, or delirium.
Preparing for a neurological examination
No specific preparation is required for a neurological examination. However, you should inform your doctor about any medications you're taking (such as blood thinners, antihypertensives, or psychoactive drugs), as well as vitamins and dietary supplements. When preparing for a neurologist, try to relax and avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours prior to the examination.
Initial neurology consultation in Bratislava
The purpose of the initial neurology consultation is to identify the cause of the patient's complaints and determine the appropriate treatment plan based on the initial assessment or the need for further diagnostic tests. An initial neurology consultation is necessary to:
- Review your symptoms (e.g., headaches, dizziness, sensory disturbances, weakness, back/neck/limb pain, coordination issues, memory problems, or sleep disorders) and take a detailed medical history (including personal and family history of neurological conditions);
- Perform a physical examination, where the neurologist assesses skin and mucous membranes, evaluates muscle strength and reflexes, performs sensitivity and coordination tests, as well as palpates painful areas;
- Evaluate cognitive function (checking speech clarity and accuracy and, if necessary, conducting memory, attention, and orientation tests).
If the neurologist cannot establish a diagnosis based on the information received from the patient, he/she may prescribe laboratory and imaging tests. For current pricing information, please contact us online or by calling the phone number listed on the website.
Medication-based treatment for nervous system disorders in Bratislava
To treat neurological conditions, a neurologist may prescribe medications targeting both the root cause and symptom relief. Medication-based treatment for neurological conditions may include:
- Muscle relaxants to reduce muscle tone and relax skeletal muscles;
- Sleep disorder medications (sedatives, hypnotics);
- Drugs for dementia, Parkinson’s, and Alzheimer’s disease;
- Beta-blockers (blood pressure regulators);
- Blood thinners and thrombolytics;
- Migraine and headache medications;
- Pain relievers or analgesics for neuropathic pain management.
If mental health disturbances are detected, the doctor may prescribe mood regulators (antidepressants, stimulants, or antipsychotics), anticonvulsants, and anti-epileptic drugs.
Follow-up neurology consultation in Bratislava
A follow-up appointment with a neurologist is necessary after diagnostic testing or completion of the previously prescribed therapeutic course to monitor the treatment progress or adjust it if needed. A follow-up neurology consultation is also needed for:
- Interpreting test results and examinations;
- Assessing new symptoms or changes in patient condition;
- Confirming a diagnosis and prescribing treatment plans.
During the follow-up consultation, the neurologist may order additional diagnostic tests and refer you to specialists (cardiologists, psychiatrists, trauma surgeons) if required. A follow-up consultation may also be necessary if there are adverse reactions to medications or an exacerbation of the condition after the prescribed treatment.
