The difference between a neurologist and a neurosurgeon is the same as the difference between a physician and a surgeon. Those neurological diseases which require medication are seen primarily by neurologists. There are many diseases though where their area of expertise overlaps.
Spine surgery is practised by both neurosurgeons and orthopaedic surgeons. While orthopaedic surgeons can manage diseases involving the bone and disc, they do not manage diseases involving the spinal cord. Neurosurgeons manage all kinds of spine pathologies.
Headache is one of the earliest signs of a brain tumour, especially in elderly people. This kind of headache usually involves the entire head, may be associated with vomiting and may increase early in the mornings. Associated features include seizures, decreased consciousness, and weakness in limbs. A headache should never be ignored and must be investigated properly.
