Answered on 3rd Sept '24
It is quite normal to experience headaches due to hormonal changes and lack of sleep after childbirth. However, headache shooting coupled with chest and throat pain should not be ignored. It is essential to eliminate the fear of serious conditions, such as postpartum preeclampsia or infections. You should go for a medical evaluation as soon as possible to find out the cause and the right treatment.

I am 36 I am having head pain dizzy.kind like lightheaded.what going on
Female | 36
This can be due to various reasons. It may be because you are not taking in enough water, or perhaps you are feeling stressed or tired. Things such as not eating regularly or having low blood sugar can also make you feel this way. Drink a lot of water, take a proper diet, and avoid overexertion. Suppose in case dizziness persists, it is feasible to check with your doctor so that any serious issues will be identified.

Cerebral atrophy impairs the patient\'s coordination to the extent that he/she loses the touch to walk and speak, and the manual dexterity needed to carry out simple tasks. The condition is demonstrated when the brain cells are gradually losing their size. The medication prescriptions your mother is taking might only produce short-term benefits, you must carry out the consultations with the responsible neurologists who are in charge of her health.

35 year old male. Dull ache in top back of neck, on and off for 2 months but more constant now. Can come with head aches and occasional vertigo
Male | 35
It is plausible that the person has tension headaches due to muscle pain in his or her neck and shoulder. With occasional vertigo, other causes should be ruled out such as abnormalities in the cervical spine or inner ear. The individual is advised to consult a neurologist for more evaluation and treatment of these manifestations.

Female | 51
Your mom might have suffered a brain injury. This occurs due to falls, accidents, or any sudden head impact. Headaches, dizziness, confusion, and memory issues are common signs. Resting the brain and avoiding strenuous activities are crucial. If symptoms worsen rapidly, seek urgent medical help from a neurologist for proper diagnosis and treatment without delay.

Experiencing more severe post-seizure symptoms is concerning. It's advisable to consult with a neurologist or epilepsy specialist to evaluate your condition and determine if any adjustments to your medication regimen or treatment plan are necessary. Communicate changes in symptoms with your doctor.

Hello, my Mother in law (70 years) is suffering from misbalancing and in-coordination of feet movement which has severely worsened during last 3 years. All the pathology test appears are normal. The sensory test is also normal. There is an uncontrolled trembling that occurs frequently. Now, this symptom is gradually being observed in the upper limbs also. Progressive myelopathy with no medication available has been diagnosed by a Neurologist. What are the options available for the treatment?
Bracing, physical therapy and medication are treatments for mild myelopathy and mainly reduce pain, allowing you to return to your daily activities. Nonsurgical treatment does not remove the compression. Spinal decompression surgery is a generally preferred treatment for myelopathy to relieve pressure on the spinal cord. A surgery can also be used to remove bone spurs or herniated discs if they are the cause of myelopathy. For advanced myelopathy caused by stenosis, a surgical procedure to increase the channel space of your spinal cord (laminoplasty) recommended. Consult a spinal surgeon - Spinal Surgery doctors in Mumbai, you can also search for a different city.

I've been suffering from chronic headaches for nearly 10 years, and I've been taking Vasograin daily to manage the pain. If I don't take the medicine, the headache starts again, and it happens every day.Why is it happening ?
Female | 38
You are possibly having a kind of headache referred to as a "medication overuse headache." The condition may arise if you are too dependent on medications such as Vasograin which brings about pain relief. The medicine is responsible for daily headaches that return if not taken. The method is to use Vasograin less frequently and under medical supervision. This way, the cycle of overuse will be interrupted, and the treatment of your headaches will be more efficient.

Yesterday I had leg and feets pain like sprain today at night suddenly it started twitching it was so intense that I was moving my legs hands arm it was more in arm I was crying out ???? and and teeth were shivering and now suddenly my pain disappeared and shivering also disappeared I still can't stop crying. my forehead is hot and my teeth are shivering but I am not feeling much cold on my feet but there is some coldness
Female | 18
The twitching and shaking may be the result of muscle spasms caused by dehydration, low levels of certain minerals like potassium or calcium, or overexertion of muscles. A hot forehead could be a sign of increased body temperature. Be sure to drink enough water and eat foods rich in minerals like bananas, nuts, and dairy products. On the other hand, taking a warm bath and resting can also help relax your muscles. If these symptoms continue, it is necessary to see a neurologist.

Sir my name is venu gopal and I am 26 years old sir I am sweating only one side of my face and hands what is the reason sir
Male | Kasam venu gopal
Sweating excessively on one side of your face and one hand may be due to Frey’s syndrome, which is a condition that develops as a result of damaged nerves from surgery or injury. The key sign is sweating when you eat or see food. You can try antiperspirants or medication, and if necessary, have botox injections. Don’t forget to drink water and avoid spicy foods too often.

Here is my story, Doctor. So, two years ago, I suddenly felt immense pain in my foot and got bedridden for almost three months. And then I rushed to a physician because at the time there was no neurologist in my city. The physician tested my vitamins and gave me some vitamins. It eventually got better and I was able to walk. I was overweight at that time and my physician told me that it's all because of weight. And then I lost almost 20 kilograms, but there was still feeling of socks. I don't feel any pain or anything, but I just feel like I'm wearing socks. Then after almost two years, I visited a neurologist with this and she tested my vitamins. She prescribed me vitamin D supplements since my vitamin D is at 12, but for one month. Nothing happened with this one month treatment. Then she did my NCV. She said my NCV reports are normal and has prescribed me some vitamins again. What do you think, how much time it would take to get completely cured?
Female | 21
Based on what you have told me, the peripheral disorder mentioned by the speaker is on track with peripheral nerve disease. In most cases, the feeling of socks on your feet could be easily attributed to peripheral neuropathy. You are lucky that your neurologist has done so many tests and that your vitamins and nerves are under control. Please continue to take the vitamins as per the doctor's prescription and remain patient. You will need some time to see improvements in your nerves. Also, keeping a check on your weight and living a healthy life will speed up your recovery while doing well.

Seizures make one's body jerk or stiffen. They occur for varied reasons like epilepsy or fevers. Epilepsy is a condition that may lead to seizures in some instances. An MRI exam helps doctors examine the brain closely. Working closely with a neurologist is crucial to developing an optimal treatment strategy for her well-being, despite the challenges her situation presents initially.
