Summary

Neurologist Dr. Ayushi Chugh addresses the challenge of "neurophobia" and provides guidance for non-neurologists on recognizing subtle signs of neurologic conditions. She emphasizes the principle "look once, think twice" — urging clinicians to pause and reconsider when symptoms don't fully add up, even when scans appear normal or vital signs are reassuring. The article highlights how neurologic and neuromuscular conditions often present with subtle signs that can be easily dismissed, and offers practical diagnostic wisdom for primary care providers, emergency physicians, and other non-neurology clinicians.
