About Neurology

Neurology is a branch of science dealing with disorders related to brain and its associated parts. A doctor treating such disorders is called a neurologist. A neurologist helps in healing problems such as epilepsy, atrophy etc. Such disorders do not require any surgery and the symptoms can be improved with the help of medication and by altering the daily life routine.
