Why am I having headaches with shrinking limbs?
Headache, shrinking of hands and legs, foaming at the mouth
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 25th July '24
Severe head pain which radiates to the neck with stiffening neck and the legs and foaming at the mouth are potential symptoms that can be addressed as epilepsy. Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain characterized by the occurrence of abnormal electrical activity, sending inappropriate signals through the nervous system. It is of course injuriously crucial to make it the first choice to see a specialist doctor in case of these symptoms. The common method for the treatment of epilepsy is drug use for control of the seizure and prevention of a future occurrence.

I am 62 years old. i m parkinson patient hand compon body works प्रोसेसेस slow
Male | 62
If you're noticing symptoms of Parkinson's disease, it might indicate you're experiencing it. The disease can cause slow movement in the hands and other body parts due to malfunctioning brain cells that control movement. Medications and physical therapies like exercises can help manage these symptoms. It's important to consult a neurologist for the best advice.

My father was suffering from dementia with lewy bodies. in his last days he had series infection in lungs and bacterial infection after that. He had Anasarca before he died. Will his swollen body turn to normal now that he passed away or he'll stay swollen?
Male | 80
Your dad has too much fluid in his body, causing swelling everywhere. This condition is called Anasarca. It does not get better after death. Heart issues, kidney troubles, and liver disease are some reasons for Anasarca. Talk to your neurologist about your worries. They can guide and support you through this.

Urgent- I am 53 old male with history of restless leg syndrome from approx. 20 years. With time it as become more severe as because I can’t sleep for many nights. By advance diagnosis doc discover i lack in dopamine production. I am having depressing thoughts .. can u give me promising treatment?
Male | 53
No single "promising treatment" will work for everyone with restless leg syndrome. Commonly recommended treatments include medications, lifestyle changes, and physical therapies. Medications and treatments can be prescribed only after a proper diagnosis. Rest you should avoid caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco to reduce the severity of symptoms. Physical therapies such as stretching, massage, and yoga can help relieve muscle tension and improve sleep quality. It is also important to discuss any feelings of depression with your doctor and consider seeking therapy or counseling.

Hi in October 2022 my cpk was 2000 plus and crp was 12. Diagnosed with IIM. My leg muscles were affected that time. Early ild effects in chest ct scan. Started taking prednisone mmf 1500. But in Oct 2023 my voice is also affected can't speak now. Myositis panel of antibodies negative But Achr antibodies positive and ace levels are high. Still cpk is 1800 and hscrp is 17. 86. Diagnosed with myasthenia gravis and taking prednisone mmf and pyridostigmine now. Taken ivig also but still no improvement in voice and weakness. Recently I had severe diarrhea due to high dose of mmf. I want to know will rituximab treatment will be helpful for me. As my doctor is planning for that but now my cd 19 levels also high. Kindly suggest helpful which and what treatment is suitable and advisable.
Female | 54
It seems you're dealing with health issues like myositis and myasthenia gravis, which weaken muscles affecting your legs and voice. Since previous treatments haven’t helped, your doctor suggests rituximab to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms. Monitoring is important due to high CD19 levels. Be sure to discuss any concerns or side effects with your neurologist.

There is swelling in nerve on the side of ear and it causes pain in head and in neck
Male | 18
You might have something called occipital neuralgia. The nerves going from your spine to scalp get irritated or inflamed. This causes the head and neck discomfort. Other effects could be light sensitivity and a sore scalp. To ease the pain, take over-the-counter medicine. Apply warmth or cold to the area. Practice deep breathing and relaxing. But if it persists, see a neurologist for evaluation and treatment.

I am 18 years old.I have a problem of head movement if i stand for 10 mintues.
Female | 18
You may feel light-headed if you stand up too fast. This could be caused by several things such as dehydration, low blood pressure, or problems with your inner ear. You should try drinking more water, getting up more slowly, and eating regular meals. If these steps don’t help, then it would be best to see a neurologist.

Female | 22
Feeling weak, nauseous, and getting headaches is normal after finishing malaria medication. Your body needs time to recover from the infection. Rest well. Drink lots of fluids. Eat healthy foods. It can take a while for your body to feel 100% again. If symptoms worsen or persist, consult your neurologist.

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.

Pain in left-hand palm to elbow numbness and tingling
Male | 30
These signs could mean a pinched nerve — when a nerve is pressed or squeezed. You might get it from bad habits like typing all day or falling asleep in an odd position. To fix it, stop doing the same thing over and over and stretch out gently. Also, if these feelings don’t go away you should see a neurologist.

It is always best to consult with her doctor to see what's the best course of action is for her. However, medications such as oxybutynin, tolterodine, and solifenacin may be effective in treating urinary incontinence. Additionally, physical therapy and pelvic floor exercises may help improve her walking and bladder control.

I had also a strong headace in the parietal region like a needle punture in pain but not that small from time to time. I took some painkillers but now I wake up everyday with a headace in the right half of my head it goes till the forehead it goes away when I eat but I still have during the day the painful parietal headace and I saw a worsening of my memory .What should I do ?

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.
