My question to you is, Can I take herbal medicine while on my medication? I want to take Lions Mane , liquid form. Can I take it while on my medication? Thanks.
Male | 38
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.

I have a pain on head from 4-5 days plus there is a pain in chest also
Female | 24
You've been dealing with head and chest pain. Headaches occur from stress, not drinking enough, or lack of sleep. Chest pain involves the heart or lungs. Drink water, get rest, breathe deeply. If pain persists, see a neurologist to pinpoint the issue and get proper treatment.

At the of ejaculation my head both side start severe pain....it is a major problem
Male | 45
Pain on both sides of your head after ejaculation could signify post-coital headache. This moderate to intense pain's exact cause remains unclear. However, it may link to altered blood flow or pressure. Stay hydrated, avoid strenuous sexual activity, and try relaxation techniques to manage it. But if pain persists or worsens, consulting a neurologist becomes crucial for evaluation and proper guidance.

My mother is almost 50 and since 4-5 months her half side of face suddenly pulls to one side like paralysed and after some time it gets normal but now it is occurring more often.
Female | 49
Being a condition named Bell's Palsy, your mother may go through it. It is a thing that happens because of the inflammation of the facial nerve. Medication and exercises that strengthen the muscles can be included in the treatment. You should visit a neurologist for a proper diagnosis and a plan of treatment.

I am 52 years old, male. I have a tremor only in my right hand for 4 years and it has been diagnosed as Parkinson's. Which therapy methods are suitable for me? Is stem cell therapy an option for me? I would like to receive advice. Best regard
Male | 52
Your Parkinson's tremor has caused a shaking hand on your right side as the doctor has identified. This can make you shiver, get stiff muscles, or have difficulty with your movements. Parkinson's treatment is the administration of drugs, physical therapy, and as a rule, in a small number of cases, also surgery. Even though research has been done regarding stem cell therapy it is not regularly practiced as a primary therapy for Parkinson's. Follow the prescribed therapies that your doctor gives you.

Female | 26
Having symptoms like muscle twitches, tingling in your hands and feet, leg weakness, ankle pain, and difficulty speaking could indicate a nerve disorder. Abnormal EMG and NCS test results suggest nerve problems, possibly due to conditions like peripheral neuropathy or nerve injury. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further tests and treatment, which may include specialized tests, medications, or physical therapy, depending on the cause.

You described symptoms like one-sided headaches, tingling legs, a bulging spinal disk, facial pain, vision problems, neck and shoulder discomfort, exhaustion, sleep disturbances, constipation, dizziness, and mild fever. Multiple potential causes beyond MS must be evaluated. These might relate to spinal issues, nerve conditions, or other bodily ailments.

I received 2 punches in the head a year and a half ago, is this the cause of the recurring headaches that I have to this day or does it have nothing to do with it?
Female | 23
Getting hit in the head can trigger headaches. Repeated blows may cause recurring head pain. Symptoms like head discomfort, light sensitivity, sound bothering you, and nausea might happen. It's wise to visit a neurologist, who'll guide managing these headaches properly.

Hello sir, I have a pain in my left side skul part ...it had so many years .but now thepain gets worst...more pain...that pain passes to the left sideof ear ,eye, throat, hand also ...and one more thing is...now left eye is getting pain and falls tears also...what is this symptoms
Female | 26
You could be undergoing a migraine experience. Migraines can bring about severe pain in the head which is usually unilateral. It can then spread from the eye, ear, throat, and sometimes even to tearing. Going through the menopause, you may have seasonal hormonal changes. Most people feel that climate change can trigger migraines. To try to avoid migraines, note what triggers to look for, practice some relaxation techniques, and get over-the-counter drugs used with guidance under the care of your doctor could be some good ideas.

I'm a 35 year old man. I have numbness in both my hands for the last 4 days and today my lips are also numb. What should I do?
Male | 25
It might be numbness of hands and lips which could be a nerve problem. The main causes can be a lack of vitamins or compression of nerves. Make sure that your meals are diversified. Rather, try different procedures of raising your hands and be careful to keep the pressure off the nerves. Ask a neurologist to rule out possible causes if symptoms don't disappear or worsen.

I have bilateral hippocampal hypertension Any treatment needed
Female | 17
Bilateral hippocampal hypertension refers to raised pressure on both sides of the hippocampus in the brain. This can be unveiled by memory failure, headache, or seizures. At other times, high blood pressure is the usual cause. One possible solution is to change one's lifestyle to include a healthier diet and fewer quiet periods. Medications may also be recommended to bring the pressure under control and alleviate the symptoms.

Spinal implants is used for spinal cord injury
Male | 50
Spinal implants are typically not used to treat spinal cord injuries directly. Instead, they are more commonly used to stabilize the spine and provide support in cases of spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative spinal conditions. Treatment for spinal cord injuries often focuses on rehabilitation, oral medication, and supportive care to maximize function and quality of life. However, in some cases where there's spinal instability due to injury, spinal implants may be used as part of surgical intervention to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.

This is Geeta Hegde.My son Sooraj is taking medication for migraine headache from Monday October 7 th. prescribed by you sir.Headache is getting worse. Does he need to stop the medicine? Or continue taking it.Had MRI on Monday and everything was normal. Thank you.
Male | 18
If your son's migraine medication is making his headache worse, it's important to not stop or change the dosage on your own. Since the MRI results are normal, I suggest consulting the neurologist who prescribed the medicine. They will guide you on whether to adjust the medication or explore other treatment options.
