🩺 WORLD HYPERTENSION DAY | 17 MAY 2026

“Control Blood Pressure Before It Damages Your Brain”

High blood pressure is often called the “silent killer” because many patients do not realize they have hypertension until a serious complication occurs.

As a neurosurgeon, I frequently treat patients with Hypertensive Intracerebral Hemorrhage (Hypertensive Brain Hemorrhage / IPH) — a life-threatening condition where uncontrolled blood pressure causes sudden bleeding inside the brain. Many of these patients require emergency neurosurgery, ICU care, and prolonged rehabilitation.

⚠️ Warning signs of brain hemorrhage may include:
• Sudden severe headache
• Weakness of hand or leg
• Slurred speech
• Facial deviation
• Vomiting
• Loss of consciousness
• Sudden imbalance or confusion

✅ The good news:
Most hypertension-related brain hemorrhages are preventable with: • Regular BP monitoring
• Taking medicines on time
• Reducing salt intake
• Exercise and weight control
• Avoiding smoking and excess alcohol
• Regular health checkups

📌 Remember:
A few minutes spent checking your blood pressure today may save your brain, speech, movement, and life tomorrow.
On this World Hypertension Day, let us spread awareness and encourage early diagnosis and proper treatment of hypertension.

🦴 Not all back pain is simple muscle strain. Sometimes your spine may be warning you about something more serious.

Most episodes of back pain improve with rest and medicines. But certain symptoms should never be ignored.

⚠️ Seek medical evaluation if you have:
• Back pain radiating to the leg
• Numbness or tingling in legs
• Weakness while walking
• Loss of balance or difficulty standing
• Loss of bladder or bowel control
• Persistent pain not improving with treatment

These may indicate conditions like:
✔️ Slip disc
✔️ Sciatica
✔️ Nerve compression
✔️ Spinal canal stenosis

Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent long-term nerve damage.

🧠 Not All Headaches Are the Same
After knowing the warning signs, it’s important to understand the difference between common headaches and serious ones.

🔹 Common Headache (Usually Not Serious)
• Mild to moderate pain
• Improves with rest or medication
• No neurological symptoms
• Often related to stress, lack of sleep, or dehydration

🔸 Migraine
• Throbbing pain (often one side)
• Sensitivity to light or sound
• Nausea or vomiting
• May last for hours to days

🚨 Dangerous Headache (Needs Urgent Attention)
• Sudden severe “worst headache”
• Increasing frequency or intensity
• Associated vomiting
• Vision problems
• Weakness or speech difficulty
These may indicate serious brain conditions and should not be ignored.

🧠 Key Message
👉 If your headache feels unusual, severe, or different from your usual pattern — get evaluated.

🧠 Not every headache is harmless; some can be a warning sign from your brain. Most headaches are simple, but certain symptoms should never be ignored.

⚠️ Watch for danger signs like sudden severe headache, persistent or worsening pain, vomiting with headache, vision problems, and weakness or speech difficulty.

These may indicate serious conditions like brain hemorrhage, tumor, or increased pressure in the brain. Early diagnosis can make a critical difference.

If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical evaluation without delay.

📱 Are you constantly looking down at your phone? Your neck might be paying the price.

⚠️ This condition is called “Text Neck” — and it is becoming very common in today’s digital lifestyle.
When you bend your neck forward for long periods, it puts excess pressure on your spine, leading to:

• Neck and shoulder pain
• Headaches
• Tingling or numbness in hands
• Stiffness and muscle tightness

Over time, this can even lead to disc problems and chronic spine issues.

✅ Simple habits can prevent serious problems:
• Hold your phone at eye level
• Take breaks every 20–30 minutes
• Do regular neck stretching exercises

🦴 Spine health matters. Awareness today can save you from lifelong pain.
🦴 Take care of your spine today to avoid pain tomorrow.

⚠️ Pain going from your lower back to your leg? It might be sciatica.

Low back pain that travels down the leg is often caused by disc prolapse (slip disc) pressing on a nerve.

Common symptoms include:
• Back pain
• Leg pain or burning sensation
• Numbness in leg or foot
• Difficulty walking

Early treatment can prevent long-term nerve damage.

If back or leg pain persists, consult a spine specialist.

🧠 Your Brain Sometimes Whispers Before It Cries for Help

Not every brain tumor begins with a severe headache.

Sometimes the brain sends small warning signals that people often ignore.

⚠️ Watch for symptoms like:
• Weakness or numbness in hands or legs
• Balance or coordination problems
• Blurred vision or speech difficulty
• Persistent nausea/vomiting or unusual headaches

These symptoms may seem minor, but ignoring them can delay diagnosis.

The good news is that modern neurosurgery and early detection can make treatment safer and more effective.
If something feels unusual, listen to your brain and seek medical advice.

"Time Is Brain: Why Every Minute Matters in Stroke"

Stroke is not just a medical emergency — it is a race against irreversible brain damage. Awareness and immediate action save lives.

Every minute during a brain stroke, nearly 2 million brain cells die. Let that sink in.

A Small Warrior. A Big Victory. 🧠✨

Recently, I had the privilege of operating on a 3-year-old male child diagnosed with Occipital Encephalocele — a rare congenital neural tube defect where brain tissue and meninges herniate through a skull defect.

When the parents first walked into the consultation room, they were anxious, confused, and carrying the weight of uncertainty. As neurosurgeons, we treat pathology — but we also carry responsibility for hope.

The child underwent meticulous microsurgical excision and repair.
The procedure focused on:
• Safe reduction of herniated contents
• Preservation of viable neural tissue
• Watertight dural closure
• Proper reconstruction of the defect

I’m happy to share that the post-operative recovery was smooth, and the child is doing very well clinically.

Cases like this remind me why I chose neurosurgery —
Precision. Responsibility. And the privilege of changing a child’s future.

Grateful to my OT team, anesthesia colleagues, nursing staff, and the child’s incredibly courageous parents.

Every scar tells a story.
This one tells a story of resilience.

Brain ​ is simply a ballooning or bulging of one of the blood vessels in the brain. This video shows how it is treated by surgical clipping.
What is a brain aneurysm? Why does an aneurysm rupture? What are the symptoms of brain aneurysm?
Brain aneurysm or cerebrovascular aneurysm is like a balloon that is filled with so much blood at great pressure that it is likely to burst, if it is stretched beyond its resistance. They can either remain unruptured or leak or rupture. When they remain unruptured, they are generally diagnosed incidentally. Occasionally relatively large aneurysms may remain asymptomatic or cause symptoms because of pressure on neighbouring structures. Generally, brain aneurysms are diagnosed because of symptoms that are caused when they leak or rupture.
A leak or burst in the brain aneurysm can lead to blood clot in the space between the blood vessel and brain. This leads to “the worst headache of my life”, nausea and vomiting, stiffness in the neck, irritability, convulsions, loss of consciousness etc. An unruptured aneurysm is generally asymptomatic if it is small; but a large one may cause pressure on surrounding nerves that supply the eyes, leading to “behind the eye pain”, double vision, numbness in one side of face or a squint.
Where are brain aneurysms located?
They are generally located wherever there is a forking or branching of the blood vessels, because this is where there is lot of turbulence in the blood. They can appear anywhere but are mostly seen at the base of the brain.
How is a brain aneurysm diagnosed?
When a brain aneurysm is suspected, a ​ angiography or a Digital Subtraction Angiography - ​ is performed to know for sure. This also helps in knowing the size, number of aneurysms present and its location.
What are the risk factors?
Old age, smoking, high Blood pressure and certain inherited familial disorders are associated with a higher incidence.
What is the treatment of brain aneurysm?
Brain aneurysms can either be clipped surgically or coiled. In the video here, Dr Milankumar Senjaliya shows surgical clipping. One or more clips are applied to the base of the aneurysm so that no blood enters it. This prevents any further rupture.
What are the complications of Brain aneurysm rupture?
A rupture of the aneurysm itself can lead to severe bleeding into the brain, increased pressure within the skull severe headache, convulsions, and loss of consciousness or death. If the patient survives the initial rupture, the presence of the leaked blood itself can lead to severe narrowing of the surrounding blood vessels, called ​, which can lead to multiple problems.
I have a brain aneurysm! Help!!
Please visit the nearest ​ for guidance and treatment. Don’t panic, it can be treated.
