A stroke occurs when you lose blood supply to your brain. Without blood supply, brain cells begin to die. This can cause difficulty with speech, controlling your emotions, and more. Even when the stroke is over, you’ll need treatment to regain any skills that were lost. A neurologist can help assess the extent of the damage to your brain. They can develop a treatment plan and prescribe medications to help you recover.
There are many other symptoms that might lead your doctor to refer you to a neurologist. These are generally unexplained symptoms that could be caused by several conditions. For example, unexplained pain could be the result of multiple conditions that cause your nerves to become overactive, while dizziness could be the result of injury or inflammation to your brain. Memory loss can also lead people to a neurologist. You might be referred if you’ve been having increased forgetfulness, trouble concentrating, and brain fog.
