- Nerve Care
-
Nerves make up one of the body's most complex systems, and we offer an advanced multidisciplinary team approach to deliver quality care. Nervous system disorders can be caused by conditions such as tumors, illnesses, diseases or injuries, or exposure to cold, radiation or toxins.
We diagnose and treat a range of nerve conditions, including:
- Acoustic neuroma
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Peripheral and autonomic nerve disorders
- Trigeminal neuralgia
- Ulnar nerve entrapment
Our multidisciplinary care team includes neurologists, neuromuscular medicine specialists and other specialized clinicians who utilize a variety of treatments to manage nerve conditions.
Our multidisciplinary approaches include:
- Closer management of underlying conditions that cause the nerve condition, such as diabetes, vitamin deficiencies, autoimmune disorders or other conditions
- Complementary techniques such as biofeedback, acupuncture and relaxation
- Electrical nerve-stimulation techniques
- Lifestyle changes like diet modifications, stress management or a shift in activity levels
- Medications to relieve pain and address other symptoms
- Physical aids like ergonomically designed chairs, keyboards and other equipment that reduce nerve pressure
- Multiple Sclerosis
-
We offer personalized care for multiple sclerosis (MS), from initial diagnosis and treatment to rehabilitative services. Our team of neurologists, neurosurgeons, nurses and physical, speech and occupational therapists works with patients to develop a plan to help manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.
Although there is no cure for MS, there are strategies to help change the course of the disease, treat flare-ups, manage symptoms and improve mobility.
- Medications can manage symptoms and complications ranging from dizziness, fatigue or pain to bladder dysfunctions and muscle spasms.
- Assistive devices can help facilitate everyday activities — from canes and walkers to improve mobility to specially designed automotive devices to enable driving.
- Rehabilitation therapies can help improve motor and cognitive functioning and manage symptoms.
- Clinical trials allow patients to benefit from new treatment options and are important in developing more effective treatments.
- Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders
-
At AdventHealth Port Charlotte, we’re dedicated to meeting the complex health care needs of people with movement disorders. Our neurology experts use the most advanced and clinically proven methods to alleviate debilitating symptoms and to provide diagnoses, treatment and support.
