J'ai reçu un diagnostic d'IIH. Pourrais-je travailler dans un hôpital avec des équipements utilisant des rayonnements électromagnétiques à l’avenir si j’obtiens un shunt ? Cela affectera-t-il les réglages de ma vanne de dérivation ?

Answered on 13th Sept '24

L'hypertension intracrânienne idiopathique (IIH) peut provoquer des maux de tête et des problèmes de vision en raison de l'augmentation de la pression autour du cerveau. Un traitement courant consiste à placer un shunt, un tube qui draine l'excès de liquide. Il est peu probable que travailler avec un équipement à rayonnement dans un hôpital affecte votre shunt, car les vannes de dérivation ne sont pas affectées par le rayonnement électromagnétique.

Can epilepsy go away in time and a person with it no longer have that disease?

Female | 42

Epilepsy is when a person has recurrent seizures. Sometimes this goes away on its own, especially in kids. Symptoms can range from convulsions or strange feelings to staring spells. Causes may be genetic or related to head injuries. Treatment usually includes medication but may involve surgery as well. Be sure to discuss ways of dealing with it with a neurologist.

I have been having consistent headaches and pain all over my head for more than a month now, i usually feel like liquid flowing in my head sometimes, when the headache starts it makes me stressed and angry. Please help me I really need solution to this it's really dealing with me.

Male | 23

Persistent headaches and head pain may be caused by several different factors such as tension, vision fatigue, insufficient fluid intake, and even migraine. The situation of liquid flowing in your head may be connected to sinuses or tension headaches. Consume enough water, handle stress effectively, get sufficient sleep, and go to a neurologist to find the exact reason and receive the correct treatment.

I’m 25 year old men, I have fever & feeling something is stuck in my front neck plus I have finger numbness and chest stiffness

Male | 25

The rise in temperature with the sensation that something is lodged in your throat may be an infection or an inflamed area within it. On the other hand, having your fingers get numb while experiencing tightness around the chest could also imply bad blood flow or nerve-related issues. You must take a break, drink a lot of water, and see a doctor so you can receive proper medication.

I am a 31-year-old female with L3-L4 protrusion, disc herniation at the L4-L5 level causing severe narrowing of the spinal canal and sacralization of the L5 disc. I have consulted a couple of neurologists in Bangalore but it was not effective. Pain killers and muscle relaxants don't help to subside the pain. I am not able to sit as there is severe burning pain in my right leg. It has been 6 months and there has been no improvement, rather my health is deteriorating. I have tried physiotherapy as well but the pain seems to be increasing. Kindly help me with what treatment should I take up and from where?

Male | 17

The left hand pain and chest twitches might indicate thoracic outlet syndrome. This condition arises when neck and chest nerves or blood vessels face pressure. Symptoms like arm and hand pain, numbness, and tingling can occur. Seeing a neurologist for examination and potential treatment to alleviate symptoms is advisable.

I am 31 old I am having severe headache when i stand up i feel uneasy and urge to sleep i feel nauseate and when i getup head gets severe and pain shifts to back neck. this is now third day. All my pain CT Scan and blood reports are clear and normal

Female | 31

You might have an orthostatic headache. Standing up can cause brain fluid shifts, possibly leading to low blood pressure or dehydration. Make sure to stay hydrated, move slowly, and rest often. If the headache continues, see a neurologist.

Day before yesterday high pressure happened admitted to the hospital they injection some medicine and control the pressure after that they are sleeping tired not wakeup properly I ask to eat but they have not wakeup up they sleep only why what happened how to do next or how many days it can happened to recover

Male | 50

It is usual to have the side effects of tiredness and drowsiness after use of such drugs. But if they are unable to come to life properly, it may be an indicator that the dosage of the medication needs to be modified. The first few days may be hard for them but then they will start to improve and feel normal again. Make sure they get plenty of sleep and drink lots of water. If the symptoms continue or become more severe, get in touch with their doctor for further instructions.

I'm on medication for depression but also I was a victim of occipital neuralgia few years back... now sometimes I experience strange sensation in my head in the upper vertex cold feeling tingling little weird why is it happening so doctors please correlate. Regards.

Male | 27

You seem to experience peculiar sensations in your head. The backstory of occipital neuralgia and antidepressants might shed light. The chilly feeling and tingling atop your head could stem from nerve sensitivity or medication side effects. Keeping your neurologist informed about these symptoms is crucial, so they can offer suitable guidance and potentially modify your treatment if needed.

I have had some kind of neuropathy for the past 4.5 years and have level 6/7 pain in my palms, soles, toes, and fingers. I suffer from pin/needle and burning pain. Over the years I have also lost my muscles in both legs, thighs, arms, posteriors, and have become very weak and can hardly walk now. All my symptoms are symmetrical on both sides. Extensive tests including MRI of brain, chest, EMG, abdomen, ABI, spine, etc. have been done but no significant disease has been found. Constant routine blood tests have shown no major problems. I am not diabatic and have not been identified as hypertensive. Some doctors have inconclusively indicated small fiver neuropathy. I have used gabapentin, pregabalin, and duloxetine for pain relief. I continue to become weak due to muscle atrophy. My friends and relatives have suggested treatment in Chennai, and I would like to come to Chennai in a short time hoping for better treatment and cure of my disease. Thank you and looking forward to a quick response.

Male | 70

Based on your symptoms, you may have small fiber neuropathy.. Ebut a more in-depth investigation may be needed to confirm the diagnosis.

Hallo, ich bin 52 Jahre Mann . Ich habe seit 4 Jahren Tremor in der rechte Hand, bei mir ist Parkinson diagnostiziert. Welche Behandlungsmethode ist für mich relevant, kommt die Stammzellentherapie in Frage?.

Male | 52

The tremor in the right hand can be annoying. Parkinson's disease is usually a result of a lack of a chemical in the brain called dopamine. The main treatment usually consists of medications that help control dopamine deficiency. Promising stem cell therapy research is found, but it remains a non-standard Parkinson's Disease treatment. One must have a conversation with their neurologist to decide the best option compatible with the individual.
