Struggling with stress and body numbness at night, especially after using screens like phones or laptops? Digital eye strain could be the cause, leading to headaches, eye discomfort, and trouble focusing. To ease the symptoms, take regular screen breaks, dim the room lights, and try relaxation techniques. If you're also dealing with premature gray hair or depression, stress may be playing a role. Improving your diet, staying active, and getting enough sleep can help boost your overall health. If these symptoms persist, see a neurologist.

You might be dealing with stress, maybe too much strain or not enough rest. The human body reacts to stress in such a way that all these things can happen. To feel better, the recommended course of action is: to relax more, try to get some sleep, and practice breathing exercises or do some gentle exercises.

The symptoms of body pain, especially in your feet and hands may be alarming. These could be due to various factors like inflammation, stress, or even an underlying health condition.

Female | 26

Headaches bothering you a while now, huh? That's hard. When they worsen suddenly, we must learn why. Severe ones can come from stress, tired eyes, not enough water, missed sleep, or graver issues too. Since Panadol didn't work, it's wise to see a neurologist for proper checks.

The person is said to be having a focal seizure, which is a type of seizure. This can lead to sudden headaches, unconsciousness, and loss of control. The brain wave patterns that are incompatible with the EEG confirm this. Doctors can prescribe these medications to control the seizures and thereby avoid any injuries resulting from falls. It's paramount to follow up your treatment with a neurologist for a thorough diagnosis and the right therapy.

Something popped on the right side of my brain, and it feels soar and has tiny spurts of pain. When it first happens I had light headaches around my head. Nothing seriously painful, and I’m having dizzy spells. Nothing uncontrollable but it’s weird.

Male | 35

The description seems as if you might have a certain issue called a migraine. Zapping sensations in the brain are the "popping" which can be accompanied by a headache and dizziness. The pain is temporary but, these headaches can feel sore to the point of causing a brief moment of pain. A lot of times, the cause of the migraines is stress, deprivation of sleep, and high intake of certain foods. Along with the symptoms, you might want to rest in a quiet, dark room and drink fluids to hydrate. If the symptoms continue or worsen, visit a neurologist for additional treatment and checking.

Female | 22

You might feel sick, have sight issues, or have a hard time thinking/ have dizziness. These might be stress, panic, or even changes in your everyday activities. To begin with, I would suggest that you avoid subliminals and take care of yourself by drinking enough water and resting properly. Warm-up workouts or meditation skills can be of some help in this case. Yet, in case of any persistent or worsening of the symptoms mentioned above, consult a neurologist for individualized treatment.

It sounds like you may be experiencing a migraine. Migraines can cause severe headaches along with symptoms like dizziness, blurred vision, shaky hands, restlessness, and sharp head pain. Some people also experience a buzzing sound or ringing in their ears. Try tracking your headaches and possible triggers, such as stress, lack of sleep, or certain foods. Stay hydrated, eat regular meals, and practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or light exercise. If the headaches persist, it's best to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Male | 19

If you're considering Alpha GPC to enhance your studies, proceed with caution. A safe daily dose for a 19-year-old is 300-600 mg, but it's best to start with a lower dose for a few days to see how your body responds. While Alpha GPC may improve cognitive function, remember to maintain a balanced diet, stay hydrated, and get enough sleep for overall health and focus.

Female | 28

Your body fights infections through swollen lymph nodes in your neck. Post nasal drip irritates your throat and mouth, causing numbness. Tingling in your head might stem from sensitive nerves. It's crucial to get evaluated and treated by a neurologist. They'll determine the underlying cause and provide proper care for your symptoms.

Male | 25

You might have tension headaches. They cause mild upper head pain and numb ears. Common culprits? Stress piles on. Poor posture adds strain. Staring at screens strains eyes. Relax, give your body a break. Do some easy neck and shoulder stretches. Look away from screens often. Stay hydrated, young friend. Sleep enough hours at night. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a neurologist soon.
