I advise you to get a pediatric neurologist and make an appointment as soon as possible for your daughter and her problems. A solitary nerve damage from a seizure on the right side of her brain might necessitate more tests and/or treatment.

My grandfather age is 69he has second brain stroke for 2 month he unable to speak and eat and unable to walk. toady his bp is high what is the reason for high bp please tell me doctor
Male | 69
It is normal to have high blood pressure after a stroke. These blood pressure rises could be because of the brain damage that regulates the level of pressure. Furthermore, hypertension is often asymptomatic however it can cause additional strokes. Ensure that he takes his medication, eats well, and goes for check-ups regularly.

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.

But my memory issues will take how much time to resolve after Inter parenchymal bleed it's been already 2 months I haven't forgotten completely but I can't literally recall my past events and remember new events accordingly everything I miss out the dates and times
Male | 23
You are worried about your memory after bleeding within the brain. It is not uncommon for people to have these types of problems with their memories following such events. Some of the symptoms may involve having trouble remembering things that have occurred recently or forgetting appointments altogether; also clock watching could be difficult too. This can affect anyone at any age.

Good evening. I'm 21 years old, I have been having the issue of feeling numbness to my pinky finger of my right hand, which has been going on for months now, it happens once in two weeks, sometimes weekly and I might not feel it in a month. Whenever this happens I can actually move the other fingers freely, but sometimes it affects the finger close to it, I have difficulty opening my palm, I will have to place my hand somewhere to open the palm. Please what can I do?
Male | 21
The condition which causes the cubital tunnel syndrome is the result of the ulnar nerve being compressed or irritated. The symptoms are found in feeling pins and needles, weakness, and difficulty in flexing the affected finger which harbors some doubts. One remedy can be found in the avoidance of cubital tunnel exacerbating sports and using a night splint to keep the arm straight. Despite that, following the aforementioned measures, if the symptoms remain persistent then attaining further advice from a neurologist will be sufficient.

Hi. I feel something like “tap tap” in my head for four months. Like teitching but i dont know. In my muscle above ear. Its occasionally and when is here it stopped by istelf in same day after few hours. It started in the morning after wake up but no everyday. Im so sfraid of my life. Is this life threatening condition? Please help me!
Male | 22
It's understandable to feel concerned about the sensations you’re experiencing. The “tap tap” feeling above your ear may be due to muscle spasms or tension in that area. This can happen from stress, fatigue, or posture issues. While it's likely not life-threatening, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a neurologist to discuss your symptoms in detail. They can provide a thorough examination and suggest appropriate treatments, such as relaxation techniques or physical therapy, if necessary.

im facing a problem in which my legs start to become hot for just of 5-10 seconds. Whats the reason behnid this?
Male | 27
Many people feel sudden warmth, called hot flashes. These happen frequently for women, but men can get them too. Hormonal changes or reactions cause hot flashes. Stress, caffeine, or alcohol may trigger them. Staying cool, avoiding spicy foods, and relaxing can help manage hot flashes. If they continues being problematic, speak to your doctor.

Female | 19
Your headaches and dizziness could be related to prolonged exposure to heat or sudden changes in temperature from the AC. It’s important to stay hydrated and take breaks from the heat. However, since these symptoms have persisted for two weeks, I strongly advise you to visit a general physician or an ENT specialist for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

I tend to jump to worse case scenario but I recently got diagnosed with vertigo caused by middle ear fluid and recently it’s came back since where I am the weather has gotten worse and my vision is kind of blurry sometimes and I have a hard time focusing on someone when they are talking how likely is it that this is being caused by a brain tumor and not the middle ear vertigo or am I just completely over thinking this
Female | 21
The blurry vision and the difficulty in focusing can be the vertigo that the ear fluid causes. It is common and it does not mean that you have a brain tumor. The ear fluid can mess up your balance and vision. Usually, it gets better on its own, but you might need medicine or special exercises if the problem keeps bothering you.

Your friend could be having a panic attack. A state where the person has rapid breathing, cold hands and feet, sweaty palms, and feeling unable to move is the most common one during a panic attack. The reasons may be different but the stress or anxiety stage is often the cause. Advise your friend to breathe slowly and deeply to stay calm and composed. Offer them strong reassurance and be a steady presence to help them through it.

Quantitation of received CSF sample for 14-3-3 Protein Gamma predicts Very high risk of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. Please correlate clinically. This is one of the test result. How to treat this?
Male | 60
The presence of increased 14-3-3 protein in cerebrospinal fluid may be an indicator of a significant risk for Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, an uncommon neurodegenerative disorder. Common symptoms include rapid cognitive decline, changes in personality, vision problems, and coordination issues. It is recommended that a neurologist be consulted for a full evaluation, as they can compare your clinical history and symptoms with the test results to better point you in the right direction. In the meantime, a cure does not exist, thus the only thing that will help is supportive care and symptom management. Please, first of all, make an appointment to discuss your case and to find different options for therapy.

Female | 23
Sleep difficulties and sensations of irritation or goosebumps could be due to many factors. It's essential to establish a relaxing bedtime routine, maintain a consistent sleep schedule, and create a comfortable sleeping environment. Reducing stress through relaxation techniques and avoiding stimulants can also help improve your sleep. If the problem persists, consider consulting a neurology professional or a sleep specialist from known hospitals for further evaluation and guidance.

I’m an 18 year old female who has had temporal pain for around 10 years now. I have tried paracetamol but it doesn’t work. I’ve been to the doctors countless times and they say everything is fine. Sometimes my jaw hurts, also i have had decreased hearing. It hurts more when i press the inner part of the ear and when i move it. What should i do?
Female | 18
From your description of symptoms like jaw pain and reduced hearing, it can be pointed to temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) as a probable cause of the problem. TMD can be the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, which are sore and stiffer than before. Also, one may notice some symptoms like ear pain and changes in hearing. Seek advice from a dentist who will check you up thoroughly and prescribe you the needed therapies. The dentist can create a successful plan for handling your symptoms.

My grandfather age is 69 one month before he has second brain stroke attack for 1 month he unable to speak and eat also unable to move tough
Male | 69
When someone has a stroke, it can affect their ability to speak, eat, and move. This happens because parts of the brain that control these things get damaged. It’s important for him to be monitored closely by medical professionals to provide proper care, support, and therapy to help him regain functions. Patience, love, and proper medical care are key in his recovery journey.

I hit my head hard 9 hours ago. No other symptoms but localized pain where the hit was. Do I need a ct?
Female | 39
Localized discomfort at the impact site can be common and is often not serious. However, if you notice any additional symptoms like dizziness, nausea, confusion, or vision changes, seeking immediate medical attention is essential. A CT scan is typically advised if there's concern for a more severe issue. I recommend contacting a neurologist for a thorough evaluation to ensure your well-being. Early intervention can provide peace of mind and appropriate care if necessary.

They can be provoked by stress, insufficient sleep, and some types of food. The most significant thing to do is to manage your stress, get sufficient sleep, and remove the food that triggers you, which are three helpful ways to avoid migraines.

Hi doctor I have a headache everyday and it only goes away if I take painkiller (ibuprofen) why I have this?
Female | 25
The headaches have arisen regularly and are usually relieved by painkillers. They are characterized by stress, lack of sleep, or a bad posture, and therefore are often the case. It is necessary to trace the main cause. I suggest you engage in stress-relieving activities such as deep breathing, stretching, and getting proper sleep and posture. If the headaches still exist, it is crucial to consult a doctor to diagnose and prevent any hidden causes.
