Some medicines can have memory side effects. Memory can be improved with non-tropic options, for example, CDP-Choline, L Theanine, Huperzine A, B6, and Piracetam; these can be considered. You mentioned another option, Vipocetine. It is best to talk to a neurologist before trying all of these together to make sure they are safe for you.

I'm 25 age male Mujhe 3 month se DNS lg rha hai
Male | 25
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.

My daughter started having a severe headache 2 days ago with blurry and double vision and nausea. Yesterday she got it again but worse than the day before she said and this morning she had been having blood clots come out of her nose.
Female | 16
If your daughter is experiencing severe headaches, blurred or double vision, vomiting, or blood clots coming from her nose, these are something to be seriously worried about. The cause of all these might be high blood pressure, a head injury, or even a blood clot in her brain. Take her to the hospital immediately. Call an ambulance or take her to the emergency department so that they can diagnose and treat her properly.

Recently my father diagnosed with diffused cerebral autrophy with chronic microangiopathic changes involving deep hemispheric white matter (fazekas Grade 2 white matter hyperintensities) Kindly suggest what to do ?
Male | 65
Currently there is no specific treatment for managing white matter lesions/hyperintensities. The goal is to treat the reason of the damage and cease the progression and worsening of the disease.
Depending on the reason of damage, the doctor will start you on blood pressure lowering or cholesterol lowering medicines.
In case you have a social habit such as smoking, then it is suggested to quit smoking at the earliest for preventing any further damage.
Consult a neurologist for further treatment.

I'm having headache since morning taken disprine and proper 8 hours sleep but having tha same please suggest
Male | 25
Headaches are varied and can be caused by the smallest things such as stress, dehydration, or looking at a display for a long time. Pain relief is sometimes simple and in this case, Disprin will help. Also, drink water, have a break every half hour of screen time, and learn to control bad thoughts by doing relaxation exercises such as deep breathing. If pain persists for a day, or if the symptoms worsen, consult a doctor to conduct a full examination and have them prescribe the best form of recovery.

My brother is of 22 yrs old and doc says that he has brain tumour from childhood and has swelling too doc said to get him operated
Male | 22
If the brain tumor and swelling are diagnosed, you should follow the doctor’s advice, schedule surgery, and take herbal remedies that reduce brain swelling. Brain tumors may be malignant at one end of the spectrum and benign at the other, so you must seek the guidance of a neurologist who concentrates on this field.

Male | 54
Paralysis occurs when the brain can't send signals to certain body parts, causing them to stop moving. This can be due to causes like a stroke or injury. Physical therapy can help improve movement. It's important to consult a neurologist for proper treatment.

The vein on the right side of my head has been twitching for a few days.
Female | 29
The twitchy vein on your head's right side could be caused by stress or lack of sleep. Too much caffeine might also make it happen. Eye strain and being dehydrated are other possible reasons for twitching veins. Be sure to drink enough water, get proper rest, and try reducing stress levels. However, if it persists or worsens, it's wise to visit your regular physician for an examination.

I feel like my head is always hot.While studying it feels like it's totally stuffed and I need to wash my head with cold water to relax and didn't have any memory about what I taught in previous day
Female | 18
You might be suffering from stress or fatigue. When you start getting a hot and closed head and you often find yourself in a state of amnesia it might be a sign that you are tired and your brain is asking for a rest. Take breaks while studying, drink plenty of water, and give your body enough rest.

Doctor, can I take 1500 mcg vitamin b12 supplements to increase my brain function as I am a student.
Female | 15
Taking 1500 mcg vitamin B12 supplements may not be required if you do not have a B12 deficiency. B12 deficiency symptoms can involve such matters as depression, dizziness, and memory loss. A blood test is a way to see your vitamin B12 levels. Only in case of a deficiency, the correct dose will be pointed out by your doctor.

It might be that you underwent a seizure. Blurry vision, blacking out, and shaking may result from seizures. There are various causes of seizures such as sleep deprivation and fever. It's crucial to get an appointment with a neurologist to figure out what happened and give you the right treatment to ensure your safety and health.
