Neurology and neurological conditions are conditions that relate or are associated to either or both of the following:
Central Nervous System – this includes your brain and spinal cord
Peripheral Nervous system – these are nerves that reside outside your brain and spinal cord and relay information between your brain and the rest of your body. There are 3 parts of peripheral nervous system that each has a different function.
- Motor – these nerves connect the brain and spinal cord to your muscles to cause movement
- Sensory – these nerves connect the brain and spinal cord to muscles to skin and elsewhere so you can feel pain, temperature, vibrations and other sensations.
- Autonomic – these nervesconnects your brain to most of your internal organs and controls involuntary function (e.g., blood pressure, digestion, heart rate, glands).
