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.

Male | 22
Hand tremors refer to the involuntary shaking of hands. It may occur if you are anxious or stressed out sometimes. In other cases, it is associated with factors such as excessive caffeine intake or inadequate nutrition. You can overcome this problem by calming down, having enough rest, and eating well. However, if the condition persists, you need to seek help from a neurologist.

Male | 21
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)

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?

Female | 42
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.

Hi Dear Doctoe good evening, since last three days i was feeling my head like to wires are touching each other several times especially afternoon and it looks is increasing episodes which makes me feeling headache and poos concentration
Male | 35 Years
Your description of tingling sensations in your head, headache, and concentration problems is of course alarming and calls for proper treatment. Stress, insomnia, and tension are the possible causes of these symptoms. It is important to follow a balanced daily schedule that connects to the body through adequate hydration, practicing relaxation techniques, and getting enough sleep. Use some technical devices in the morning or lunch and avoid this action in the afternoon. Then if there is no sense of improvement or even if the situation gets worse, I recommend you schedule a visit to a neurologist who will help you with further evaluation.

Headaches at the front of your head, along with vomiting, can happen together. Common causes are migraines, tension, or sinus issues.

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.

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.

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.

You may have narcolepsy. This condition is caused by a lack of brain chemical that controls sleep. Medications can help manage symptoms and improve life quality. But it's crucial to see a sleep specialist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Don't ignore symptoms - get checked out by a neurologist.
