Can you cure brain aneurysms?
Yes. Brain Aneurysm is a curable If it is small, less than 3 mm, it does not need intervention, just Imaging studies to follow up every 2-4 years If 3 mm to 7 mm, it can be cured by an intervention procedure. Larger aneurysm would need a Brain Surgery. Gayatri Sonti READ MORE

Can nerve damage in the back be treated without surgery?
Nerve damage and Nerve compression are 2 different things A true Nerve damage: in a true sense is due to possibly from crushed injury from accident etc. Nerve compression due to disc herniation, etc can be retired by surgery Usually an EMG, a study can show how significantly a nerve is affected.

Skull surgery and brain tumor
1: Is your surgery on the side of the skull near the ear? If so temporal muscle atrophy does cause some dipping I noticed you are 24 years. The muscled will regenerate with time, it may not be symmetrical, but it will build up. 2: If you do not notice any neurological symptoms that are new, such as seizures, then you do not have to worry about any tumor growth. 3: if you are really concerned, (you had surgery 2 months ago:) a follow-up Mri can always indicate if there is any regrowth. In general muscle atrophy is the main reason and the bulk of the muscle does get better. READ MORE
Can a back injury cause neurological defects?
Well, it depends on what the severe back injury is. If you had a severe back injury, I am assuming you went to either the ER or saw a doctor. Depending on the severity of the trauma, you could have an injury to the area of the spine. I would recommend having an MRI of the cervical spine; if there is an injury of the spinal cord in the neck, then your arm and leg coordination can get affected. Prior to ordering an MRI, a doctor should examine you and see if the coordination problems are related to the cervical spine, and order that study to confirm a diagnosis. Best regards READ MORE
Recovery from craniotomy?
Recovery from craniotomy can take several months. It is a slow and steady process. Please don’t get frustrated. Definitely light excercise is a great idea, it always increases blood circulation, which is a key factor for healing. Try to challenge your brain at a slow pace by repeating the tasks and you will notice improvement. Try to get at least 8 hrs of sleep at night time, and if possible, avoid napping during the daytime. Best wishes READ MORE
