You’re having pain in the joints after you were administered cortisone to the node in your cerebellum. On occasions, joint pain may occur as a side effect of cortisone. Your knees, hands, and hips hurt and it is difficult to stand on them. This is quite possible with cortisone which will affect your body. To solve this problem, it's best to consult an orthopedist about the joint pain.

I have problem of frequently headache .
Male | 55
Headaches can be caused by various factors such as stress, dehydration, or lack of sleep. Poor diet can also trigger them. Make sure you're staying hydrated, getting enough rest, and eating well. If your headaches continue, it's important to see a neurologist to rule out any underlying issues.

Male | 26
This condition is known as "servitigo." You might feel like you're spinning, unstable, or dizzy. Causes can include high pollution, visual disturbances, or severe stress. A proper diet, regular exercise, and enough sleep can help. However, if the problem continues, it's important to see a neurologist.

When I press my head backside (the place where it was hit when I fell)... It's bleeding from nose... And we took a CT scan they told there's nothing on it... But now it's strted to bleeding on ears and then the eyes on the side where it was hit
Male | 16
It sounds like you are experiencing some serious symptoms, even though your CT scan showed no abnormalities. Bleeding from the nose, ears, and eyes after a head injury can be concerning and should be taken seriously. I strongly recommend that you visit a neurologist or an ENT specialist as soon as possible for a thorough examination and proper treatment. They will be able to assess your condition more accurately and provide the necessary care.

I am sangeetha 43 yrs old from Chennai I have high bp and under active thyroid so taking pills of both. While laying or walking feel unbalanced weakness dizziness vertigo and while laying look body jump
Female | 53
You might feel off-balance, dizzy, like everything moves. That's vertigo. The inner ear may cause it - problems like infection or ear crystals. Since you have high blood pressure and thyroid troubles, see a neurologist. They'll find why you're unbalanced. Maybe meds need adjusting, or exercises can help your balance. Be careful not to fall. Avoid risky things until they improve.

Doctor, the patient has cerebral palsy dystonia. Is steam cell treatment better ordeep brain stimulation beneficial for him, Because deep brain stimulation is beneficial for Parkinson’s patients only, and its success rate is high because it is primary dystonia and he has secondary dystonia. Thank you very much.
Male | 28
In this case, deep brain stimulation may not be the best choice since it's typically used for Parkinson's disease. Stem cell therapy that replaces damaged cells instead could be one of the ways to do it. Cerebral palsy dystonia can cause muscle stiffness or uncontrollable movements. Always consult with a doctor to explore suitable options.

Paralysis of legs due to Bone tb Treatment is going on(6months) Reports ESR test suggests that the infection is very low now
Male | 47
It is a gradual process, and it might take some time to observe meaningful results. But the low ESR test is a good sign, therefore meaning that infection has been controlled. I recommend a neurologist consultation to assess the nature and origin of paralysis which can be treated accordingly.

There is a lot of pain at night. It feels like the vein in the forehead will burst and the body jerks repeatedly.
Male | 17
You may be having a cluster headache. It may be accompanied by a jolt of the body. Stress, alcohol consumption, and intense smells can serve as irritants. To counter these conditions, use relaxation methods, do not expose yourself to triggers, and consult a neurologist for further advice and support.

Male | 31
You have been feeling a ringing in your ears with racing thoughts and eye redness when you focus too much. Stress or anxiety can be the reason for these symptoms. To help relax your mind, you can try deep breathing exercises, meditation, or gentle yoga. Apart from that, listening to soothing music or taking a nature walk might also help you in reducing stress.

Spinal implants is used for spinal cord injury
Male | 50
Spinal implants are typically not used to treat spinal cord injuries directly. Instead, they are more commonly used to stabilize the spine and provide support in cases of spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative spinal conditions. Treatment for spinal cord injuries often focuses on rehabilitation, oral medication, and supportive care to maximize function and quality of life. However, in some cases where there's spinal instability due to injury, spinal implants may be used as part of surgical intervention to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.

Female | 57
Parkinson's disease causes shaking, stiffness, movement issues. Your tremors may signify this condition. When brain cells malfunction, Parkinson's occurs. No cure exists yet, but treatments like medicine, therapy, sometimes surgery can help manage symptoms. Working closely with healthcare providers is key.

headache gets worse over 24 hours. I also have fever, stiff neck, nausea, and strong headache. I kinda headache occurs with a head injury.
Male | 23
Headache with fever, stiff neck, and nausea along with them could be a serious matter. These symptoms, especially the worsening headache, might indicate meningitis, which is a swelling around the brain. In most cases, this is due to infections. If you have suffered a head injury recently, it becomes even more crucial for you to get checked by a neurologist urgently.

My mother had a stroke on her right side a week ago Tuesday , she was still talking , memory was intact . After been Zyprexa, Antivan was administered by a nurse. She couldn't talk nor open eyes Thursday morning. Saturday she started responding but after given dextrose she was not responding no more. Nor able to move her right arm due to a blood clot from IV ...what is wrong with my mother
Female | 63
It seems that your mother experienced a stroke on her right side, which initially affected her ability to talk but left her memory intact. It's possible that the administration of Zyprexa (an antipsychotic medication) and Ativan (a sedative) may have been done to manage symptoms related to the stroke, such as agitation or anxiety.

One person is having headache due to literature and that too is not continuing. He does it once in an hour and that too for two to three seconds.
Male | 24
It sounds like the person might be experiencing what's called a "literature-induced headache," which occurs briefly and intermittently. Although this seems harmless, it's advisable to consult a neurologist for a proper evaluation. They specialize in conditions affecting the nervous system, including headaches, and can provide appropriate advice and treatment.

Which surgery is better for grade 2 brain tumor? Should the patient opt for Radiosurgery or Craniotomy?
Generally there are 4 types of Resection to remove a tumor:
- Gross total: The entire tumor is removed. However, sometimes microscopic cells may remain.
- Subtotal: A large portion of the tumor is removed.
- Partial: Only part of the tumor is removed.
- Biopsy only: Only a small portion is removed, which is used for a biopsy.
The treatment or surgery depends on several factors like type of cancer, the stage of cancer, location, age of patient, general health, associated comorbidities and others. Consult an oncologist, who on evaluation of the patient will guide you to choose the best treatment suitable for the patient.

I am 27 years old female , day before yesterday I fell in bathroom and hot my front and back side of the head . After that till now I'm having nausea and headache.
Female | 27
The fall might indicate a concussion, which can happen from bumps or blows to the head. Common symptoms include recurring nausea or headaches. It's important to rest and avoid activities that stimulate your mind, like watching TV or using screens. If symptoms worsen or you have trouble thinking, go to a hospital.

Frequent headache and weeknes and dizziness and ice craving
Female | 15
Fatigue, headaches, weakness, and dizzy spells together with enjoying taking ice could be signs of a disease known as iron deficiency anemia. The blood lacks iron in a sufficient amount, which can result in your feeling tired and dizzy. Upgrading your diet with more of the foods with a high iron content like spinach and beans can be effective, and your doctor may prescribe you iron tablets. It is a must for you to get checked by a neurologist for the exact diagnosis and the appropriate treatment.

Feeling dizzy, even when all your blood tests are normal, could have various causes such as inner ear problems, low blood pressure, anxiety, and inadequate eating. It’s important to ensure that you eat well, drink enough water, and get sufficient rest.
If you are still experiencing dizziness, it would be best to seek advice from a neurologist.

Even though I dedicate so much of time in studying , I could not match with my friends scores ( who score more than me by putting lesser effort than me ) and this makes more depressed and tired . Currently I have very bad lifestyle ( junk food, no exercise, no proper sleep) , but I have already tried following these steps and ended up in no results . I am a undergrad student , I need to resolve this to get placed . I need to know the exact reasons and disorder behind this and exact solutions to get back my old brain .

Please help me in this , I am really hopeless here

Your concentration, memory, and cognitive functions are showing ominous symptoms of worry. Thus, it is likely that they are caused by stress, unhealthy lifestyles, sleep deprivation, and poor diet. Eating, sleeping, exercising, and managing stress should become a priority if you wish to enhance your brain function. You could also consider speaking with a psychiatrist or counselor for support. Implementing these interventions can enable you to control your brain operation as well as enhance your general well-being.

Hello! I was diagnosed with OCD a while ago, and one of the compulsions to certain thoughts was to hold my breath for time. It all started from here. I entered medicine, I am passionate about the field and I was always a 10th grade student. My question is if my brain was affected, if there was any cerebral hypoxia. There were times when I held my breath for quite long periods (until I felt that I had to do it), other times when I was not breathing enough and had that feeling of suffocation (the biggest fear here is, I don't know exactly how much). I had a native brain MRI, 1.5 tesla, nothing negative came out. However, on a micro level, was my cognition, my intelligence, my memory affected? The SpO2 value is 98-99% now, should I go to a doctor? I haven't slept much in my life, I always stay up at night to study and I wonder if my brain is more sensitive to such things, also I was born prematurely. I had read on the Internet that people can get hypoxia and not see it on an MRI, that really panicked me. I'm starting college in a week and I'm constantly thinking about this. If I'm going to forget certain details, I won't remember certain things, I'll always think it's because my brain was damaged, not that it's normal not to remember everything. I managed to overcome these compulsions. But I think that there are no after-effects on the brain. What do you recommend? I am very panicked that I might have hurt myself because of some senseless compulsions. I don't feel myself anymore, after reading or many things on the Internet. Is there anything to do?
Male | 18
Holding your breath for a long time can sometimes make you dizzy or suffocate, nevertheless, it is improbable for you to suffer from a permanent brain injury. Your brain which requires oxygen is doing well because you have been receiving good oxygen levels. If you're feeling worried, try some relaxation techniques like deep breathing or talking to someone you trust.

Internal head pain starting from left side and radiate to back side of the head
Male | 28
Headaches can feel like pressure around your head, often starting on one side and spreading. This type of headache is known as a tension headache and can feel like a band squeezing your head. They may be caused by stress, poor posture, or eye strain. To relieve the pain, try relaxing, sitting up straight, and resting your eyes. If the pain persists, it's wise to see a neurologist.
