When Should You See a Neurologist for Headaches? - a podcast by RadioMD

Headaches are something many people experience. If your headache symptoms are severe enough, your primary care doctor may refer you to a neurologist.

The neurodiagnostic services offered at Hendricks Regional Health assist physicians in diagnosing and treating neurological disorders and diseases.

Neurologists are medical specialists that focus on diagnosing and treating disorders of the nervous system. Some of the common conditions they treat include headaches or migraines, stroke, dementia, epilepsy, muscular dystrophy and Parkinson's disease. They help manage chronic pain, as well as carpal tunnel syndrome and sleep disorders.

In this segment, Joseph Herr, MD., joins the show to discuss at what point someone suffering from headaches should seek out a visit with a neurologist and what other roles a neurologist plays as part of your health care team.
