In daily life, I believe that most people, like me, still know a little bit about common diseases, but when it comes to major diseases, they are completely baffled, do not know which hospital to go to, do not know which department to hang, and do not know which doctor to find. The more you look for information, the more dizzy you get and the more confused you become. Next, let our neurosurgery experts to give you a general idea of how to deal with this situation. Headache This is one of the most common symptoms in neurosurgery. Most of the headaches in daily life are functional, without organic brain lesions, but only in the following cases should we go to neurosurgery: 1. The patient usually has no headache symptoms, but suddenly appears severe headache even with vomiting, which can be seen in acute inflammation, tumor stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, etc.; 2. Recurrent paroxysmal headache. It is mostly seen in epileptic headache, occipital neuralgia, vascular headache or cervical spondylosis, etc.; 3. Gradually worsening headache. If the headache is accompanied by gradual loss of vision and vomiting during the headache, it is a typical “three main signs” of cranial hypertension, mostly caused by neurosurgical diseases. Facial pain includes pain in the face, eyes, nose, mouth and teeth. 1. If there is a sudden onset of transient and severe pain on one side of the face, which feels like a knife cut, electric shock, burning or pins and needles, and is likely to appear suddenly when washing the face, brushing the teeth, eating or talking, it may be trigeminal neuralgia. It should be noted that trigeminal neuralgia often manifests itself as unbearable toothache. Patients think that it is a tooth in addition to the problem and cannot wait to go to the stomatology department to ask for tooth extraction, but as a result, most of the teeth are extracted and the pain is still not relieved in the slightest, and finally they realize that it is not a toothache problem before coming to neurosurgery. 2.If there is persistent vague pain, dull pain or swelling pain in the face, the lesion around the trigeminal nerve should be considered and should also be seen in neurosurgery. 3.When there is severe pain at the root of the tongue, deep part of the mouth and deep part of the external ear canal, which is obvious when swallowing, then it may be hyohypopharyngeal neuralgia, and you should also seek neurosurgery promptly. Involuntary movements 1. Twitching: manifests as involuntary twitching of the limbs, face or chest and abdominal muscles that are not fixed, occurring and stopping suddenly. 2. tremor palsy: involuntary rhythmic shaking of a part of the body or the whole body, accompanied by muscle rigidity and motor retardation. Aphasia Mainly refers to acquired language dysfunction or loss. Most of them are caused by lesions affecting the higher language centers of the left side of the brain. 1.Motor aphasia: It is manifested by the ability to understand others’ words and pronounce them, but cannot speak or can only utter individual single words and cannot repeat them. 2.Sensory aphasia: It is manifested as understanding the speech of others and oneself. Although the pronunciation is normal and the speech is coherent, the words are often used incorrectly and the answer is not what is asked. 3.Naming aphasia: It is manifested as knowing the use of a thing but being unable to name the thing. 4.Complete aphasia: The ability to both express and understand language is lost, neither understanding what others say, nor being able to speak out the words. 5.Loss of reading: The ability to see normally and to read was normal, but now the ability to read words is lost. 6. Loss of writing: normal hand movement, but unable to write. Some other common symptoms 1, limb weakness: can gradually worsen or suddenly appear. The lighter ones tend to show early on as inability to hold chopsticks, easy to drop them, and difficulty in holding things. If it is lower limb weakness, it is manifested as dragging walking, knees tend to get weak and bend or even fall down, and the wear of the sole on the diseased side is obviously more serious than that on the healthy side. If the hand or foot cannot be lifted, or even consciousness cannot control the movement of the hand and foot, it is the so-called “paralysis”. 2, convulsions: brain disease caused by convulsions, often manifested as a sudden onset of limb twitching, can be accompanied by impaired consciousness or incontinence, each lasting a few seconds to a few minutes, the interictal period is completely normal. 3, sensory disorders: the human body has shallow sensation and deep sensation. Superficial sensation includes pain, heat and cold, light touch and pressure, while deep sensation refers to the sensation of the position of the limb, vibration and movement when the person is closing. Diseases of the nervous system may cause these sensory abnormalities. 4, visual field disorders: sudden or gradual decline in visual acuity, reduced range of vision, if no ophthalmologic disease is found in the ophthalmologic examination or if edema is found in the fundus manifestations, a neurosurgical consultation should be made, these conditions are often caused by intracranial lesions. 5, polyuria: the daily urine volume is more than 4000 ml, the urine is light or colorless and transparent, the patient feels thirsty and needs to drink a lot of water every day. 6.Menstrual abnormalities and lactation: irregular menstruation, irregular time of each visit, low volume, or even no menstruation at all, breast milk secretion when there is no childbirth, small amount needs to squeeze the breast to overflow, large amount can automatically overflow mostly bilateral, mostly due to pituitary tumor, may be accompanied by vision loss. 7.Children’s gigantism, adult acromegaly, facial changes: pituitary growth hormone adenoma performance. 8, abnormal growth and sexual development: Mostly caused by anterior or posterior lesions of the three ventricles, such as craniopharyngioma, teratoma, germ cell tumor, pineal tumor, etc. 9. Unstable walking: skewing to one side, mostly due to cerebellar involvement. 10.Drowsiness, personality change, mental decline, etc.: lesions in frontal lobe, temporal lobe or hypothalamus, etc. 11. Meningeal irritation symptoms: sudden onset of headache, vomiting, and cervical tonicity are typical manifestations of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Acute infection in the skull. 12.Somatic pain: radioactive, weakness and numbness of one or both limbs, gradually progressing upward or downward, and urinary and fecal disorders, as a manifestation of cremaster lesions. 13, cranial nerve paralysis symptoms: such as seeing with double vision, upper eyelids can not be lifted, facial numbness, distorted mouth and eyes, drooling at the corners of the mouth, hearing loss, eating and swallowing, choking and coughing on water, abnormal pronunciation, hoarseness, etc., for brainstem, cranial nerve tumor and skull base adjacent parts of the lesion such as aneurysm, meningioma, cristae, craniopharyngioma, pituitary tumor, nerve sheath tumor, etc. When the above symptoms appear, do not be paralyzed, but seek medical attention in a timely manner, do not listen to miracle doctors, prescriptions and other delayed disease, health is their own, their own life or hold in their own hands more at ease.
