Neurologist: A neurologist focuses on the brain and spinal cord, along with nerves throughout the body. That network makes things move for us. Your neuro can test and tell you if the signal from your brain is not getting to your hands, like a pinched or damaged nerve, and how to treat it. Peace and good health.
