Consultation of a neurologist

Consultation of a neurologist

📌 Preventive examinations by a neurologist should not be neglected, because neurological problems cannot always be noticed in everyday life. Remember, it is better to prevent the disease than to treat the consequences.

📌 A neurologist examination is recommended:
- up to a year, the frequency of the neurologist's examination will be adjusted by your pediatrician, most often - 1, 3, 6 months
- then prophylactically in 1, 3, 6 years
- in case of concern among parents or upon referral from a pediatrician .

📌 The frequency of a child's examination by a neurologist directly depends on the anamnesis - the condition at the time of birth, previous illnesses and many other important medical facts.

📌 When to contact a specialist:
- frequent headaches in a child
- episodes of dizziness or loss of consciousness
- restless sleep, frequent awakenings, crying for no reason
- tics or involuntary contractions of the muscles of the body or face
- violation of coordination, stuttering, lag in development compared to peers.
