A neurologist could help people with neurogenic stuttering. * The treatment of neurogenic stuttering requires diagnosis by neurologists. A neurologist is a doctor with specialized training in diagnosing, treating and managing disorders of the brain and nervous system such as Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, migraine, multiple sclerosis, brain injury, Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy. * Stroke and traumatic brain injury are the two most commonly reported causes of neurogenic stuttering but it also has been observed as a result of neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Parkinson Disease), and other conditions such as epilepsy, brain tumors and drug use. Individuals with fluency disorders may have speech that sounds fragmented or halting, with frequent interruptions and difficulty **producing words without effort or struggle**. * Neurogenic stuttering appears more often in adulthood. This profile is quite different from developmental stuttering which is not typically seen as a result of brain damage and which most commonly appears in children. * The symptoms of neurogenic stuttering can be similar to those seen in dysarthria, apraxia of speech, palilalia, and aphasia. These problems result from the same types of neurological injury or disease as neurogenic stuttering, and the disorders often co-exist. * Neurogenic stuttering is often not alleviated by the same conditions that significantly lessen developmental stuttering like choral reading and singing.
