It's good to hear that your seizures are under control with APO Carbamazepine. However, when it comes to adding herbal medicines like Lion's Mane, it's important to be cautious. Some herbs can interact with your current medication and may affect its effectiveness. It's best to consult a neurologist before starting any new supplement or herbal treatment. They can give you the right advice based on your condition and medication.

The re­d skin, tingling, pain, and nerve issues could be­ from too many bad molecules in your body. These­ bad molecules can hurt cells. To he­lp stop the bad molecules, e­at more fruits and veggies. Also, talk to your doctor about helper pills that may stop the­se issues from the bad mole­cules.

I have diagnosed epilepsy, and I currently take 200mg of lamotrigine. I am still experiencing frequent seizures and also cluster seizures. I would like to discuss if I would have any options to add another medication alongside lamotrigine to try and control my seizures.

Female | 26

You’re still having seizures despite taking lamotrigine. It’s a medication commonly used for epilepsy. When seizures continue, adding another medication may help control them. Your doctor may suggest options such as levetiracetam or valproic acid. These medicines work in different ways to prevent seizures. Discuss with your doctor to find the best option for you.

I am feeling dizzyness and heavyness on right side of temple in forehead and pressure in forehead, ear, cheek, and nose block on right side of the face. Please suggest me diagnosis and treatment.

Male | 41

As per the complaints, this is a case of Sinusitis.

If you have sinusitis, the doctor may be able to recommend additional medications to relieve your symptoms, such as steroid nasal sprays or drops to reduce sinus swelling.

antihistamines - if your symptoms are caused by an allergy

Antibiotics - if you have a bacterial infection and are severely sick or at risk of consequences, antibiotics may be prescribed (but antibiotics are often not needed, as sinusitis is usually caused by a virus)

I have had a headache for 4 days now and 2 out of the 4 days have been migraine like headaches

Female | 19

Migraine­s can be very hard. They ofte­n come with throbbing pain in your head. You may fee­l sick to your stomach. Light and sounds make it worse. Not enough sle­ep and stress can cause migraine­s. Some foods can start them too. Make sure­ you eat good stuff. Drink lots of water. Get lots of re­st. If headaches kee­p happening, talk to a doctor.

I am 48 years old male...I have severe headache from tomorrow morning. I have taken some pain killers but feel no relief.what could I do now.

Male | 48

Headaches are one of the most common health problems, and they can be brought about by stress, lack of sleep, dehydration, and so on. Now that the medications you consumed are no longer effective, how about if you would like to use relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, drinking water, or applying a cold compress to your head?

I am suffering from hemifacial spasm. I want to cure it permanently. Pls help

Female | 38

A hemifacial spasm cause­s one side of your face to twitch involuntarily. This happe­ns when a nerve ge­ts irritated in your cheek are­a. Although uncontrolled facial twitching is unpleasant, treatme­nt options like Botox injections or surgery e­xist. These can help re­lax the affected ne­rve, stopping the spasms. Such treatme­nts aim to provide relief, improving your quality of life­. So do not lose hope, as permane­nt solutions are available.

My headache is paining too much eyes are paining too much crying alot body shivering right chest pain body pain

Female | 19

This type of headache can cause pain not only in the head but also in the eyes and sometimes even in the chest. It is often accompanied by severe chills and body aches. Finding a quiet, dark place to rest can help. Drinking water and taking pain relievers like paracetamol can also provide relief.

Help me dr headache problem

Male | 22

There are many reasons why people get headaches.  For example, pressure or strain due to stress can cause it; failure to drink water may also contribute, and spending too much time looking at a screen can be another factor.  To relieve yourself of these symptoms ensure that you are taking enough water and breaks as much as possible from screens while getting adequate sleep each night. If they persist then see a doctor immediately.
