🌟 Happy Friday from Dr. Deon Lamprecht, Neurosurgeon & Team 🌟

This week is Child Passenger Safety Awareness Week 🚗👶 – a reminder that keeping children safe on the road is every parent’s responsibility, especially during the school holidays.

✅ Using the right car seat, booster seat, or seat belt isn’t just the law – it can save your child’s life and prevent devastating brain or spinal injuries in the event of a crash.

As neurosurgeons, we see first-hand the tragic consequences when children are not properly restrained. Head injuries and spinal trauma are among the most severe outcomes of motor vehicle accidents, and many of these can be prevented with proper safety measures. 🧠💔

⚠️ When should a child see a neurosurgeon after an accident?
✅ If your child was not in a car seat or seat belt during a crash
✅ If they experience loss of consciousness, vomiting, confusion, severe headache, or seizures
✅ If they complain of neck or back pain, weakness, or numbness
✅ If there are visible signs of head injury or trauma

Let’s work together to keep our children safe. Buckle them up correctly every trip, every time. ❤️

👉 Stay safe this holiday season, and let’s celebrate responsibly by protecting the little ones who depend on us most.

🌿 Medical Monday | Fall Prevention Awareness Day 🌿

Today, 22 September, we recognize Fall Prevention Awareness Day – a reminder that preventing falls can save lives, especially among older adults. 🚶‍♀️🧠

Falls are one of the leading causes of head injuries and spinal problems. While some falls may seem minor, they can sometimes cause hidden injuries that require urgent medical attention.

⚠️ When to See a Neurosurgeon After a Fall:
🔹 Persistent or severe headache
🔹 Loss of consciousness, confusion, or memory gaps
🔹 Weakness, numbness, or difficulty moving arms/legs
🔹 Trouble with balance, walking, or coordination
🔹 Blurred vision, slurred speech, or dizziness
🔹 Severe back or neck pain

✅ Preventing falls is just as important as knowing when to seek help. Simple steps like removing loose rugs, installing grab bars, improving lighting, and using supportive footwear can go a long way in keeping you or your loved ones safe.

💛 Let’s work together to protect brain and spine health – because one fall can change everything.

🌟 Happy Friday from Dr. Deon Lamprecht, Neurosurgeon & Team 🌟

As we head into the weekend, let’s remember it’s not just about rest and fun – it’s also about safety and brain health. 🧠💡

💛 Today is National Concussion Awareness Day – a reminder to protect yourself and your loved ones from head injuries.

⚠️ Weekend Safety Tips:
🔹 Always wear protective gear when cycling, skating, or playing sports. ⛑️
🔹 Avoid risky activities without helmets or safety measures. 🛟
🔹 If you hit your head, watch out for warning signs like dizziness, headache, nausea, confusion, or vision changes. ⚠️
🔹 When in doubt – get checked out. Concussions should never be ignored. 🩺

👶 September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month 🎗️

🚨 Childhood obesity is not only about weight — it’s about the future health of the spine. ❤️‍🩹

⚠️When extra weight stresses a child’s developing spine, it can cause problems that carry into early adulthood:
🔹 Chronic back or neck pain
🔹 Early disc degeneration and posture issues 📏
🔹 Higher risk of herniated discs or nerve compression 🗜️
🔹 Limited mobility and reduced quality of life 🛟

👩‍👩‍👦 Healthy habits in childhood — nutrition, exercise, and good posture — can protect your child’s spine today and safeguard their independence tomorrow.

💡 If your child experiences ongoing back or neck pain, or posture changes, an evaluation with a neurosurgeon may help prevent long-term complications.

💙 Let’s protect young spines for a healthier future.

🌱 Folic Acid Awareness Week 🌱
👶 The Power of Folic Acid in Pregnancy 💪

🤔Did you know?
Taking folic acid before and during early pregnancy is one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to protect your baby’s health. 💚

✨ Why folic acid matters:
✔️ Helps form the baby’s brain & spinal cord 🧠
✔️ Reduces the risk of neural tube defects (like spina bifida)
✔️ Supports healthy cell growth and development 📈

📌 When to start?
Doctors recommend women who are planning a pregnancy (or who may become pregnant) take folic acid daily — ideally before conception and through the first trimester.

💊 Tip: Most prenatal vitamins include folic acid. Ask your healthcare provider for the right dose for you.

Let’s raise awareness — because a small daily step can make a life-changing difference. 🌸

🧠 Chiari Malformation: What You Need to Know 🩺

🧐Have you ever heard of Chiari Malformation?
It’s a condition where part of the brain pushes down into the spinal canal. 🛶This can cause pressure on the brain and spinal cord, leading to symptoms that may affect your daily life. 🛟

⚠️What does it really mean?
Chiari Malformation isn’t always dangerous, but for some people, it can cause pain, balance problems, or nerve-related issues. ⚖️The good news is that with the right care, many symptoms can be managed — and in some cases, surgery can bring significant relief. 😌

👀 Common symptoms to keep track of include:
✅ Frequent headaches 🤕 (especially at the back of the head, worse when coughing or sneezing)
✅ Neck pain or stiffness 🧣
✅ Problems with balance or walking 🤹‍♀️
✅ Numbness or tingling in the arms and legs 💪 🦵
✅ Dizziness, ringing in the ears, or trouble swallowing 👂🫨

👩‍⚕️ How can a neurosurgeon help?
🔹 Do a full evaluation with scans and neurological tests 🩻
🔹 Help you understand if your symptoms are related to Chiari Malformation 🔗
🔹 Guide you through treatment options — from monitoring to surgical care when needed 👨‍⚕️

💬 Why it matters:
Many people live for years with symptoms without knowing the cause. Getting answers is the first step to feeling better. 😁

If you or someone you love is experiencing these signs, don’t wait — reaching out for a consultation could make all the difference. 🌿

🌸 September is Pain Awareness Month 🌍

😣Chronic pain can affect every part of life — but you don’t have to face it alone.

🧠 As a neurosurgeon, Dr Lamprecht helps patients by:
✅ Identifying the underlying cause of pain in the brain, spine, or nerves. 🪪
✅ Treating conditions like slipped discs, spinal stenosis, or tumors that may cause pain. 🔑
✅ Offering surgical solutions when other treatments are not enough. 🩺
✅ Working closely with other specialists to ensure complete care. 🏥

💡 Pain is not just something to “live with.” If pain is persistent or worsening, it may be time to consult a neurosurgeon.

✨ This Pain Awareness Month, let’s raise awareness and bring hope to those living with pain. ✨
