Different services we offer under child neurology unit

- Seizures disorders or epilepsy in children
Our neurologist helps children suffering from brain disorders like epilepsy. Epilepsy often leads to seizures in children. It mainly arises when there is an interruption in the nerve cell inside the brain. Moreover, the symptoms that children go through include high or low sugar level, high fever, brain concussion, alcohol or drug withdrawal.

Development disorder are actually a neurological disorder in children. In this disorder, the child faces problems relating to retention, acquisition, and application of certain skills or information. In this type of dysfunction, they may also face problem in paying attention, memorizing, perceiving, social interacting, problem-solving or communicating.
- Cerebral Palsy and Perinatal injuries
Cerebral Palsy is a condition where children suffer from muscle tone issue, movement and posture difficulties. It generally develops in children due to damage in the brain at its development stage, most probably before birth. Our specialist helps these patients by giving them proper medication, therapies and by suggesting surgical treatment if needed.
- Inherited metabolic disorders, Inborn errors of metabolism
Inborn errors of metabolism are rare and mostly inherited disorders in which the child’s body is incapable of converting food into energy. This disorder mainly develops from protein deficiency, especially those that help break down the parts of the food into energy. When the food present in the body is not broken down properly, it starts building up, creating a new problem. So the condition needs to be taken care of immediately before it’s too late.
- Spinocerebellar degeneration
It is a progressive and degenerative condition in children, which is often fatal. This type of disease mainly develops because of the presence of a dominant or recessive gene. These are autosomal dominant-inherited disorder obtained from a family that grows predominantly with ataxia.
- Ataxias in children
Our highly trained professional also take care of paediatric ataxia in children. It is a degenerative disease of the nervous system that interferes with muscle coordination in kids. In the condition the kid will face difficulty in speaking, walking, coordinating and moving eye. Children can suffer from this problem at any age; it is very important to treat it. Otherwise, it can be life-threatening.
- Brain and spinal cord malformations
Anomalies in the brain and spinal cord can arise in children when the plates in the skull or spine grow unusually. Our team of professional expertise in these type of abnormalities to provide expert treatment to children. The spine and brain are a very complex area of the body and thus need advanced treatment.
- Chromosomal Anomalies and other Genetic disorders of the brain in children
Genes are the basic blocks that make a baby. They are passed on from parents to children and contain DNA that further helps to make protein. Protein does all the work for the body. They break down toxins, build structures, and carry maintenance job. When there is a certain change in the gene mutation, it affects the work of protein, causing different kinds of genetic disorders.
- Intellectual Disability
It is a type of mental retardation in children in which the kid does not have the mental ability according to his/her age. They suffer from a lack of skills to perform their day to day activity perfectly.
- Mild cognitive impairment
In MCI, children face problem relating to their language, memory, judgement and thinking. It is a middle stage where the child is expected to have a cognitive decline of normal ageing and is probable to get a serious decline of dementia.
- Developmental Language disorders

- Autistic Spectrum disorder
This is another complex disorder that we take care of at Sahyadri Hospital. It is a medical condition in which children faces a persistent challenge in speech and nonverbal communication, social interaction and repetitive behaviours. The severity of this type of disease varies from one child to another. No two children behave in the same way, so it needs the help of experienced doctors.
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders

This type of disease is more common in boys than girls and usually spotted in the early days of school. Through proper treatment and therapy, the doctor help controls the symptoms of the problem.

When a child is suffering from a movement disorder, he/she will face difficulty in moving in the direction they want to. Movement disorder covers a large spectrum of diseases. It also includes children suffering from paralysis and spasticity.
- Childhood Headaches, including Migraine
Children also suffer from the same kind of headaches as adults do, but there is a bit of change in their symptoms. For instance, when adults are suffering from migraine, the headaches can last for more than four hours, but it is less than an hour in kids. The doctors of Sahyadri Hospital treat these children by giving over-the-counter medicine, improving eating and sleeping habit and suggesting therapy.
- Vascular disorders, including childhood strokes
Our highly skilled doctors also treat conditions like paediatric stroke. It is a rare condition in children which usually arises when the blood vessel in the brain suffers any injury. As a result, brain tissue loses blood supply and suffers injury too. Just like adults, stroke in children can be life-threatening thus requires immediate attention.
- Infections of Brain & Spinal Cord including Meningitis, Encephalitis and Brain & Spinal Cord Abscess
A child develops an infection in his/her brain due to the action of bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites or protozoa. It also has some effects on other parts of the central nervous system, including the spinal cord. It is very rare for the spinal cord and brains to develop an infection, but it is often life-threatening when they do. So it is important to take actions as fast as possible.
- Brain Tumors
Brain tumour usually arises due to abnormal growth of cells in the brain. Doctors carry out different diagnostic treatment to find out whether the tumour is cancerous or non-cancerous. After diagnosing the cause, they provide the necessary treatment to prevent it from spreading.

Anterior horn disease is another type of disorder experienced in children that affects the anterior horns present at the end of the spinal cord. It is a place that contains motor neutron whose main work is to control body muscles.
- Autoimmune disease of Brain & Spinal cord
Autoimmune brain disease is a medical condition in children that hinders the child’s physical and mental health. In this type of disorder, the doctors have to carry out in-depth diagnosis as it is very challenging to find and is often delayed. However, if diagnosed early, there is a high chance of curing it.
