Doctor I am a male of 45 year from Africa i feel this heaviness (dizziness) in the head and fatigue whenever i walk a little distance or engage in strenous work. I did ECG and ECHO2D tests. The doctor said nothing was wrong with my heart . I check my BP regularly. I am not hypertensive. I engage in regular fitness exercise . Yet this heaviness in the head and tiredness doesn't want to stop. I need your urgent reply. Pat.

It’s good that you’ve ruled out heart issues and hypertension. However, the persistent heaviness in the head and fatigue could be related to other causes such as anemia, thyroid issues, or even stress and anxiety. I would recommend visiting an internal medicine specialist or a neurologist for a thorough evaluation to pinpoint the cause and get appropriate treatment.

How to recover from paralysis
Male | 68
Being unable to move a part of the body is what paralysis is all about. It can be caused by different things such as strokes, injuries or diseases like MS. Common signs include loss of sensation and/or inability to move. Your comeback will depend on the cause; if it’s due, to, for instance, a stroke then one may recover quicker than expected but usually physical therapy is always recommended. In addition, healthy eating habits exercise, and keeping a positive mindset go a long way in aiding recovery.

Male | 11
If all the tests, like CT scans and MRIs, are normal, there might be different explanations for the headaches. Sometimes, stress, bad sleep, dehydration, and eye strain can be the causes of headaches. Tell your child to drink water, get enough sleep, deal with stress, and take a break from screens regularly. If the headaches continue, it's vital to consult a neurologist for more evaluation and guidance.

I have 1 pea size lymph node on both side of my neck since 1 month I also have post nasal drip.. I feel numbness like feeling in my neck throat and mouth some times I feel tingling in my head.. From yesterday I feel mild pain in front side of my neck
Female | 28
Your body fights infections through swollen lymph nodes in your neck. Post nasal drip irritates your throat and mouth, causing numbness. Tingling in your head might stem from sensitive nerves. It's crucial to get evaluated and treated by a neurologist. They'll determine the underlying cause and provide proper care for your symptoms.

Fall can be caused by many problems, including balance disorders, vision problems, or muscle weakness. Take care of yourself by getting enough sleep, staying hydrated, and checking your medication for side effects. Consult a neurologist for a proper assessment and instructions on how to prevent falls in the future.

It looks like you've been occasionally experiencing some nasal clogging known as DNS over the past one year. DNS is an abbreviation for deviated nasal septum. It represents a situation in the nose where one side of the wall is not positioned correctly. It's important to see an ENT specialist if you've been experiencing DNS for three months. They can evaluate your condition and recommend appropriate treatment options.

Why my headache is not going away? It’s a throbbing headache in the temple of my head.
Female | 25
The throbbing headache you've got is likely tension-related. Stress, fatigue, poor posture, or skipping meals can trigger these kinds of headaches. Be sure to drink plenty of water. Try relaxing with deep breaths or meditation too. If the headache won't quit, take a break. Rest in a calm, dark room for a bit.

Your conditions, Polio Residual Paralysis and cerebral vascular accident (stroke) would generally be categorized as "Multiple Disabilities" rather than "Locomotor Disability." Multiple Disabilities involve coexisting impairments in different body systems, while Locomotor Disability typically refers to issues related to mobility. It's important to consult a medical professional for accurate classification.

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.
Male | 47
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.

तीन चार दिन से सर दर्द कर रहा है गोली खाता हु तो बंद हो जाता है वापिस दर्द करने लग जाता है
Male | 20
This type of headache can develop for a number of reasons, such as stress, lack of sleep, displayed eye vision problems, or using it for work. For the accurate pinpointing of the cause of your headache, definitely seeing the doctor is a necessary procedure. Aqueorin and similar drugs can provide relief from tension headaches, but the use of too much steaminofen is not a permanent solution.
