4. Loss of bladder or bowel control
5. Sensory changes, such as tingling or loss of sensation in the extremities
6. Difficulty with fine motor skills, such as writing or buttoning clothes
7. Muscle spasms or jerking movements
8. Paralysis below the level of the tumour.
Parkinson’s disease is a neurological disorder that affects movement. In some cases, neurosurgery may be required to implant a deep brain stimulation device to help control the symptoms of the disease.
Causes:
It stems from genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and the ageing process of the human body.
Symptoms:
The symptoms of Parkinson’s disease that may be improved with surgery include:
1.Tremors or shaking of the hands, arms, legs, or head
2. Stiffness or rigidity of the limbs or trunk
3. Slow movement or difficulty initiating movement

If you are experiencing a neurological condition or disorder that causes significant symptoms or impairments, and non-surgical treatments such as medications, physical therapy, or lifestyle changes are not effective, it may be time to seek medical attention for neurosurgery. It is important to act promptly if your symptoms become severe and unmanageable. Examples of conditions that may require neurosurgery include brain tumours, spinal cord injuries, hydrocephalus, and epilepsy. Seeking early medical intervention can help to prevent further damage and improve outcomes.
The potential risks and complications associated with neurological surgery or treatment depend on the specific procedure, but may include bleeding, infection, nerve damage, or an adverse reaction to anaesthesia. Your doctor can discuss the potential risks and complications with you in detail.
The cost of the surgery or treatment will depend on the type of procedure and the specific hospital or medical facility. Your insurance coverage will also depend on your individual insurance policy. You can discuss the costs and insurance coverage with your assigned Shinon case manager at any point.
The type of follow-up care will depend on the type of procedure and your individual recovery process. Your neurosurgeon can provide information on the specific follow-up care you need. Shinon will be holding your hand at every point of your post-medical journey.
Your neurosurgeon may recommend certain lifestyle changes before or after the surgery or treatment, such as avoiding certain activities or exercises. They can provide you with information on any necessary lifestyle changes.
Shinon Healthcare is associated with neurosurgeons who are board-certified and have completed extensive training and education in their field. They also have experience in a variety of neurosurgical procedures and use the latest technologies and techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for the patients. You may even ask your neurosurgeon about their experience and qualifications to ensure you are comfortable with them performing your surgery or treatment.
It depends on the specific surgery or treatment that is being considered. In some cases, additional tests or evaluations may be necessary before the surgery or treatment to help determine the most appropriate course of action or to identify any potential risks or complications. Examples of additional tests or evaluations that may be required before surgery or treatment include blood tests, imaging studies (such as MRIs or CT scans), electrocardiograms (EKGs), \or pulmonary function tests. Your doctor will be able to provide more information on any necessary tests or evaluations based on your individual case.
It also depends on the specific surgery or treatment that is being considered. In some cases, the surgery or treatment may require a period of rest or recovery, during which time it may be necessary to limit or modify daily activities. For example, driving, working, or caring for family members may need to be temporarily suspended while the patient recovers. In other cases, the surgery or treatment may have a minimal impact on daily activities, and patients may be able to resume normal activities relatively quickly.
