Hydrocephalus
Hydrocephalus is a condition commonly referred to as "water on the brain." The term describes a situation where the ventricles (normal fluid-filled spaces deep in the brain) contain too much fluid or in which the fluid is under excessively high pressure.
Go to Detail PageHyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis is a disorder of the glands in the sympathetic nervous system which control the body's involuntary movements and processes.
Go to Detail PageInflammatory Myositis (Dermatomyositis and Polymyositis)
The inflammatory myopathies (dermatomyositis and polymyositis) are autoimmune diseases that target the muscles. This leads to weakness and elevated levels of creatine kinase (CK), a type of protein. Patients with dermatomyositis often have skin rashes that can be disfiguring and very sensitive to sun exposure. Patients with inflammatory myositis often have other autoimmune diseases, such as lupus and scleroderma.
Go to Detail PageInsomnia
Insomnia is a common sleep disorder that can make it hard to fall asleep and stay asleep at night. People with insomnia usually experience symptoms such as fatigue, low energy, difficulty concentrating, and changes in mood.

Low back pain is a common medical diagnosis estimated to affect 60-70 percent of the population in their lifetime. Low back pain can be brief, can last a short period from a few days to weeks, and can also evolve into a chronic condition with persistent symptoms lasting greater than 12 weeks.
Go to Detail PageMemory Disorders
Memory disorders are a group of disorders that cause dementia and brain function impairment, including Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, (front part of the brain), Lewy body dementia (visions of objects that are not there).
Go to Detail PageMeningioma
Meningioma is a tumor that forms in the meninges, the membranes that surround the spinal cord and brain. Most meningiomas are non-cancerous (benign). Symptoms can be subtle and slow to notice, including changes in vision, hearing, memory, smell and more. Most often meningioma affects older women, and hormones are thought to play a role.
Go to Detail PageMigraine
A migraine is an intense headache that causes throbbing pain. Women are more likely to suffer from migraines, and a family history as well as triggers like certain foods and medication seem to be causes in some people. Often a person experiences their first migraine during adolescence. Pain from a migraine can last hours or even days.
Go to Detail PageMultiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (also known as MS), is a disease that affects the central nervous system, which is made up of the brain and spinal cord. It is caused by a dysregulated immune system that attacks myelin in the body, the protective covering of nerve cells. The damage to myelin causes poor communication between the brain and the body, leading to temporary or permanent disability.
Go to Detail PageMultiple System Atrophy
Multiple system atrophy is a rare condition that gradually damages the nerve cells in the brain. It affects your balance, blood pressure, breathing, digestion, bladder control, movement, and more.

Narcolepsy

Go to Detail PageNerve Injuries
Nerves carry messages between the brain and the parts of the body. Sensory nerves carry messages regarding feelings – pressure, pain, and temperature, while motor nerves help the body move. Nerves in the hands, fingers, and wrists are fragile and can be damaged through pressure, stretching, cutting, or any injury to the body.
