Why Can't I Use My Right Hand After Mini Stroke?

Actually my father had a mini stroke last week. After that we visited doctor they did ct scan and ecg tests. Everything was normal but the ct scan report said that in the left side of brain its little bit injured due to high blood pressure. Now, from 5-6 days he is unable to do any work with his right hand, rest everything is ok. And also he forgot his atm pin, where he kept documents and all.

It sounds like he might have experienced a small stroke (mini-stroke or TIA). It's good that the CT scan and ECG were normal, but the injury on the left side of the brain could be causing the weakness in his right hand and memory issues. I would advise you to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and management.

Over come fear To tremors in body shaking 10 Ago to continue

Male | 28

Fear can make our bodies react in strange ways, and trembling is a natural response. However, if the shaking continues, it's important to take care of yourself. Relaxation techniques, like taking deep breaths or talking to someone, can help.

Hi there, I am a 19 year old female. I am born in London, UK. I am currently away on holiday in Saudi Arabia. It’s currently around 40 degrees. I was walking whilst holding my bags & I suddenly became unable to see for a second & felt sick and dizzy. I felt like my heart was beating really fast and I could not breathe properly. I sat down and tried to cool down & drank cold water. After resting, I got up in the attempt to continue walking however, I felt really faint and my heart was beating even faster again. I felt my eyes rolling, I didn’t entirely faint and black out but it felt as if I were going to. I sat down and got escorted by a golf cart. However, I am unsure if I am okay or what it is I should do. I want to know what happened. I do still feel lightheaded and sick. But I am not sweating or red anymore.

You may have gone through heat exhaustion. This is when your body's internal thermometer becomes too hot and fails to function properly. The symptoms arising from such illness include, but are not limited to, faintness, dizziness, experiencing a fast heart rate as well as the feeling of nausea. The solution is to move to a cool area, drink water, and rest. Avoid the scorching sun and keep your body as cool as possible.

I am a 43-year-old woman experiencing sleeplessness. I consulted a neurologist who gave me sleeping pills, but I wasn't interested in taking them. I tried setting a proper sleep schedule and reduced screen time, but there have been no improvements.

Female | 43

Setting a proper sleep schedule and reducing screen time are good steps, but sometimes additional help is needed. Since the neurologist's treatment didn't suit you, I recommend visiting a sleep specialist. They can provide personalized advice and alternative treatments to improve your sleep.

Remedies to decrease B6 levels . Due to high B6 levels my sensory nerves are paining. I stop taking B6 and numbness too in feet and burns

Male | 24

Excessive vitamin B6 results in nerve issues manifesting as foot pain, numbness, and burning. Reduce the intake of foods and supplements loaded with B6. Symptoms of tingling, weakness, and trouble walking may occur. Overdose of vitamins can result in these kinds of issues. E.g., a balanced diet low in B6 including bananas, potatoes, and chicken. Allow your body to slow down while it returns to the natural cycle.

Male | 69

Your grandfather might be experiencing tongue problems acquired after a recent stroke. This is the term for dysphagia, which is difficulty in swallowing and speaking. Amazingly, he can now open his mouth and move his tongue slowly. For him to make a full recovery, speech therapy might be useful. Exercises and techniques help in the aspect of toning control of the tongue and swallowing, adding to the general treatment of dysphagia.

I am 14 years old and I am suffering from bells palsy I am asking you that is cancelled I smoke vape in bells palsy recovery

Male | 14

Bell’s palsy is a condition where facial muscles on one side of the face are not functioning properly, thus causing the affected part to droop. Smoking or vaping can make your recovery take longer. These kinds of practices can be a good reason to avoid them when you are sick because more time your body requires to recover.

Facing high fever and continuous headache

Female | 30

Fevers and headaches are often caused by infections like the flu or a cold. When you're sick, your brain can ache, and your body might get hotter than usual because your immune system is fighting the illness. Make sure to get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, and take some paracetamol or acetaminophen to help reduce the fever. If the pain is severe or the symptoms persist, it's important to see a doctor for proper treatment.
