As your headache is 2-3 times a week, it needs to be treated. It could be Migraine. Please meet a Neurologist near you.

Legs are feeling very weak. Feel like sleeping and not eating
Female | 48
Faster or weaker legs, fatigue, and absence of appetite are possible causes of many diseases. It could be due to a lot of sleepless nights or maybe the deficiency of body important nutrients. Have a balanced diet with healthy food, get enough rest, and drink plenty of water. If the symptoms are still there, make sure to visit a neurologist so they can help you find out what's wrong.

I have 1 pea size lymph node on both side of my neck since 1 month I also have post nasal drip.. I feel numbness like feeling in my neck throat and mouth some times I feel tingling in my head.. From yesterday I feel mild pain in front side of my neck
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.

When I lie down I feel pressure at back of my head and getting headaches. I have pinched nerve issues. Is this headaches related to pinched nerve.
Female | 38
The headaches and the agitated feeling in the back of your head could be due to a pinched nerve. When a nerve is pinched, it can cause pain that radiates to other areas, like your head, leading to headaches. It's important to treat the pinched nerve to relieve the pain, rather than just focusing on the headaches. Light stretching, good posture, and sometimes physical therapy can help. If the headaches persist or worsen, it's best to consult a neurologist.

I'm having tingling and burning sensation in my right wrist and hand and i can't feel anything at all and I need a diagnosis
Female | 27
You could have carpal tunnel syndrome. It occurs when a nerve in your wrist gets compressed. Symptoms include tingling, burning, numbness. Repeatedly using your hand, like typing extensively, may cause it. Try resting your hand, wearing a brace, and doing hand exercises. If it persists, consult an orhopedist.

I can feel air moving thru the top of my head when I breath. Is that bad / dangerous?
Female | 25
Air can sometimes pass through the top of your head when you breathe. It may be due to a tiny hole in your skull or close to your sinuses. Or, you may have a blocked nose passage. See a doctor to know for sure. They can tell you the right reason and give treatment if needed.

Some time I feel some sort of unconscious... I also experiencing premature white hair which is happening more rapidly these days. I also face some kind of depression
Male | 31
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.

But in Oct 2023 my voice is also affected can't speak now. Myositis panel of antibodies negative But Achr antibodies positive and ace levels are high. Still cpk is 1800 and hscrp is 17. 86. Diagnosed with myasthenia gravis and taking prednisone mmf and pyridostigmine now. Taken ivig also but still no improvement in voice and weakness.

Kindly suggest helpful which and what treatment is suitable and advisable.
Female | 54
It seems you're dealing with health issues like myositis and myasthenia gravis, which weaken muscles affecting your legs and voice. Since previous treatments haven’t helped, your doctor suggests rituximab to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms. Monitoring is important due to high CD19 levels. Be sure to discuss any concerns or side effects with your neurologist.

Sir I have had two foot foot drop for the last few years, let me know the solution
Male | 42
The best solution for foot drop is usually an AFO (ankle-foot orthosis) brace. This brace helps to keep the ankle in the correct position and supports the foot, allowing you to lift it more easily. Your doctor may also recommend physical therapy or other treatments, such as electrical stimulation or surgery, to help strengthen and improve the function of the muscles in your foot and ankle.

Am getting sudden pain on back of my head which lasts for hardly 10 sec and this happens the whole day with an interval of half an hour though the heaviness of my head is constant but the pain which last for short term is very severe and feels like someone is stabbing my head Am experiencing it from past 2 days
Female | 18
Tension headaches bring acute head pain, often at the back. It's stabbing, short-lived. Stress, poor posture, or eye strain may trigger it. Drink enough water. Take breaks from screens to rest eyes. Try relaxation methods. If the symptoms persist, see a neurologist.

I'm Amit Das 29 years old. I was watching the mobile for a long time, my mind started moving towards me, when I wake up from sleep , my whole body started moving towards me, when I started moving, my mind started moving somewhere, when I started sleeping, then again my body started moving along with my mind. Yes, all this is happening since last 3 days, there is a lot of pain before sleeping, checked that BP is low. Can this be right?
Male | 19
Prolonged screen time can cause tiredness and it might be the reason for these feelings. It is necessary to rest a little from the mobile phone and make sure you are drinking enough water and eating properly to help your blood pressure. However, given that this has continued for a few days, I strongly advise you to visit a healthcare professional. They can suggest a personalized approach and check whether there are any hidden issues. Take care of yourself and request substantial medical advice.

Hellp! I am someone with MS. I have very low vitamin D levels and have had that flr a while. I an currently experiencing pain in my left leg. In both knee and thigh. I have pain and can not stand on it as usual. It is the second time in less than 2 weeks (my knee, first time)
Female | 25
Lack of vitamin D levels in the case of multiple sclerosis patients may be responsible for muscle pain on some occasions. You should be getting enough vitamin D from sunlight or a supplement of vitamin D. Besides that, you can try to make the tension loosen or apply a warm compress to stop the pain. If the pain continues, go to a doctor to get professional advice.

I have vertigo problem .I done some m r i lot's of treatment but no results also I done physiotherapy but no results .with vertigo i hav ear ringing problem.i done hrct scan but it's normal.
Male | 28
When you have vertigo, you may feel like everything is spinning around you; however, this can be very frustrating if accompanied by tinnitus. These two symptoms have been known to persist even after an MRI scan or physical therapy has been done. It’s a good thing that your HRCT scan was normal. In this situation, I would advise you to see an ENT specialist so they can find out more about what might be causing them internally and from outside sources like infections, etc.

I am 28 years old my name is amir I have Bach headache issue from last 10 days not other symptoms occur taking medicine aspirin protect 100mg and panadol Dr prescription but after taking medicine relief only 2,3 hours and again pain start please guide me what should I do
Male | 28
It can be hard when your head keeps hurting again soon after you take aspirin and Panadol. Stress is one thing that might cause these types of headaches along with bad posture or eye strain too. You should try to relax more often sitting up straight instead of slouching down in your chair for example could help out a lot here as well as taking frequent short breaks from looking at screens if this is something you do throughout the day. Visiting a doctor would be best if it doesn’t go away.

I am suffering from severe back pain for the last 4 days. My xray report says: bilateral sacralization of LV5 and body of LV2 shows wedging deformity anteriorly
Male | 33
Severe back pain may indicate different conditions that can be causing the pain. According to x-ray reports, you have a case of LV5 & LV2 and the anterior part of LV2 is going through wedge shape deformation. This tells me you have probably some vertebrae problems that need to be checked out by a spine expert. Print We recommend you make an appointment with a spinal surgeon.

Male | 21
It sounds like you're struggling with sleep. Short-term sleep deprivation can cause fatigue, dizziness, difficulty focusing, mood swings, and forgetfulness. It's important to address this issue promptly, as an ongoing lack of sleep can seriously affect your health and cognitive abilities. Try techniques like deep breathing, calming music, or creating a comfortable sleep environment to help you relax. If sleep problems persist or you're worried about your sleep patterns, consider seeking advice from a doctor or a sleep specialist.
