Frequently asked questions

 

A neurosurgical examination is a specialized medical examination performed by a neurosurgeon, a specialist in the surgical treatment of the nervous system. The examination is used to evaluate neurological problems and determine whether conservative treatment or surgery is appropriate.

Neurosurgical examination is appropriate if you suffer from:

  • long-term back or cervical spine pain, often with shooting pain into the limbs
  • herniated disc
  • compression of nerve structures, e.g. due to spinal canal narrowing
  • tingling, weakness or movement disorders
  • suspected spinal cord lesions, tumors or spinal injuries
  • pain after a previous surgical procedure (so-called post-discectomy syndrome)

The examination is also appropriate as a second opinion before a planned surgery or if you are looking for gentler alternatives to the procedure.

  1. History and consultation: The neurosurgeon will review your symptoms, medical history, and findings from previous examinations (MRI, CT, EMG, etc.).
  2. Physical and neurological examination: Reflexes, muscle strength, sensitivity, and other neurological functions will be assessed.
  3. Treatment proposal: The doctor will recommend the most appropriate course of action – this may include conservative treatment, targeted rehabilitation, injections, or surgery if necessary.
