When to consult a neurosurgeon
Neurosurgeons operate on the brain, spine and peripheral nerves — tumours, head and spinal injury, slipped discs, hydrocephalus and some causes of epilepsy. Most patients arrive on referral from a neurologist or after a scan. A neurosurgical opinion often concludes that surgery is not needed, which is a useful answer in itself.
- A brain or spinal tumour found on a scan
- A slipped disc or spinal stenosis not settling with conservative treatment
- Head injury with symptoms that continue
- Hydrocephalus, or a problem with an existing shunt
- Trigeminal neuralgia or nerve compression
