Answered on 3rd July '24
You find yourself to be mentally down as a result of the treatment, which was proton beam therapy for your brain tumor. This is a natural outcome because the treatment hurts the healthy brain tissue. Some usual symptoms are fatigue, memory problems, and a problem concentrating. Make sure you rest, eat the right foods, and keep in contact with your healthcare team. Alongside counseling, look into this support program for a solution.

I am a 14 year old female and i am having a small migrane on the left side on my head. just now when i was sitting down with my head slightly tilted a clear liquid of a few drops came out from my nose, i searched it up and it said something about CSF liquid? some liquid surrounding the brain or what. I just want to check if its nothing serious and if i can continue my day
Female | 14
Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) is a clear liquid that surrounds the brain. Sometimes, a small tear in the tissue around the brain can cause this fluid to leak through your nose. This may cause pressure or headaches on one side of your head. It’s important to rest and avoid activities that could worsen your condition. If your headache gets worse or you feel very unwell, visit a neurologist.

Head pain problems back said too painful my self
Male | 36
Your head hurts and your back too. This can be a result of nervousness, worry, and you might not even notice your sitting or looking at a screen. Give yourself time to walk around, stretch, and perform relaxation methods. You can also apply a warm compress to the painful areas and exercise walking Somewhat slow, easy walking, and jogging are also good for the body. And if the pain is still there, let a specialist examine it.

What is the treatment of head tremor
Female | 16
Head tremors cause involuntary head shaking or moving. Stress, tiredness, and medical issues trigger them. Finding the reason is crucial for treatment. Sometimes, reducing stress levels, proper rest, medication helps. For severe tremors, physical therapy or surgery may be options. Working closely with a neurologist determines the right treatment approach.

Sir some times my hand stomach leg also beating what is this problem
Male | 19
It seems that you may have this condition called palpitations. You may feel that your heart is beating fast or irregularly in your hands, stomach, or legs in this case. Anxiety, stress, too much caffeine, or a lack of sleep may sometimes contribute to this issue. Relax, keep away from caffeinated drinks, sleep well, and visit your family doctor if you feel potential disturbances.

Male | 59
I recommend that she should visit a neurologist. In MRI, the T2W/FLAIR images exhibited multiple small white matter hyperintensities in the bilateral frontal and parietal periventricular and subcortical areas. They suggest chronic small vessel ischemic change. Spinal tap water removal may not be the recommended treatment for her symptoms.

My dad is 70 yrs old, had seizures since last October, diagnosed with testicular tumour and hypertension, an operation was done and he was OK, then the seizures recurred again about 6 times since January but last night was the worst. Please help me We're in a war zone and can't take to a hospital What can I do ?
Male | 70
Seizures can be scary, especially when they happen often. In his case, they might be due to the testicular tumor or other health issues. To help him, keep him safe during a seizure by moving away harmful objects and laying him on his side. Comfort him and stay with him until it ends. Watch for any new symptoms and, if possible, gently clean any wounds he may have gotten. It's important to stay calm and supportive. Although you can't go to a hospital right now, keep monitoring his condition and get medical help as soon as possible.

If you are having freezing and tightness in the back of head then it could be a neurological condition that must be evaluated by a neurologist. And for low vitamin D3 you need to consult a physician or an endocrinologist.

Hi I have severe pain in the left side of my face and forehead from last 3 days please guide me….
Male | 23
You appear to have a sinus infection. Infected sinuses cause face pain, often one-sided, and headaches. Other signs include stuffy/runny nose, coughing, and fatigue. Warm compresses, hydration, and OTC pain meds may help. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, see a neurologist.

I am 22 years old male I have headache in back side of head and stiff neck somedays I feel drowsiness all the day and headache is severe Sometimes it hurts very bad
Male | 22
It seems like you might be having tension headaches. These usually cause aching at the back of the head and make your neck feel stiff. Another symptom is always feeling tired and wanting to sleep. Ensure that you rest well, manage stress and maintain a good posture habit. In case the problem persists then I would advise you see a doctor who will give further guidance after examining you.

Male | 53
You can continue medicine as prescribed by your doctor but not to rely on just that. Mostly, surgery happens to be the commonest method to treat this life threatening condition. I suggest to get a second opinion from another neurosurgeon and discuss your case to get specific treatment advice for your situation.

Male | 32
This can lead to a condition known as salt poisoning. Signs may include extreme thirst, vomiting, weakness, and confusion. When your friend does not answer calls, it is a severe symptom. The brain and body could be affected. Please seek immediate medical attention. This is an emergency that may be fatal.

I am 30 years old. I had anxiety for 4 months and nerve damage like sciatica pain for 2 months and lower abdominal back pain and upper front pain for 3 days, today it's getting worse.
Female | 30
The stress and nerve pain that you are experiencing might cause muscle tension which results in discomfort in various parts of your body. The stomach ache as well as the pain in the anterior part could be associated with heightened awareness in your nervous system. To alleviate these symptoms, it is important to deal with both anxiety and nerve issues. Try doing mild stretches, and deep breathing exercises or seek help from healthcare providers who know how to manage such conditions.

Hello I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss some ongoing health concerns that have persisted since I experienced cerebral meningitis a few years ago. Initially, the treatment process faced challenges, leading to subsequent neurological issues. Although most aspects of my health have improved, I continue to grapple with a specific matter related to urinary and bowel control. Following the meningitis treatment, I encountered difficulty using the restroom, leading to the use of a catheter for approximately three weeks. Subsequently, once the catheter was removed, I experienced challenges in retaining urine, necessitating the use of diapers, particularly during the night. Presently, after five years, while I have achieved some improvement in urinary control, there are instances, especially during the night, when I still face issues with involuntary urination. Additionally, I find it challenging to maintain control over bowel movements. There is a correlation between retaining urine and the urge to defecate, often resulting in occasional accidents. This situation has led to a degree of stress, particularly when venturing outside. I am reaching out to seek your expert advice on whether these issues may be treatable or if there are potential avenues for improvement. Your insights and recommendations regarding any further evaluations or treatments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your guidance on managing and addressing these persistent challenges. Sincerely,
Female | 30
You need to consult with a urologist or neurologist specialist for these disorders. They can assess your symptoms and whether further treatment is needed.

Hy. More than one month ago during shower I have washed my anus and ( probabile also my colon). I have removed the shower head and i have put the nozzle into my ass...like 3 or 4 times. Like 10 minutes later started a flash stabbing pain in my left big toe. Next days better little bit after i have niumbness, flashing sometimes prickling and tingling in my legs and arms. In this moment I have burning in my all upper body. ( in my back and arms burn , hot.) I don't have fever! So probabile I have neuropathy ( polyneuropathy) symptoms. My question is the anal douching it could have been caused this symptoms ? Or it's caused by something else?? I am 28 years old. I don't have other sickness. Sorry for my english.
Male | 28
Dependent on the symptoms given, it’s unlikely that anal douching causes your neuropathy symptoms. Neuropathy mostly comes from related factors such as diabetes or nerve injury neuropathy. For a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, see a neurologist. Meanwhile, avoid inserting anything into your anus and focus on staying healthy generally.

my son is very ill Epilepsy
Male | 14
Epilepsy is a neurological condition that is characterized by seizures. During a seizure attack, a person may involuntarily shake or jerk. These seizures are manifestations of abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Medications have been proven to control seizures, so recommending the best treatment options from a neurologist should be the priority.

Your eye, head, and nose issues seem bad. This might be trigeminal neuralgia. A nerve in your face gets irritated. The pain comes suddenly, sharply, intensely. Simple medication may help. However, see a neurologist to get proper treatment.

We speak to him and he just open the eyes and didn’t speak since yesterday. One doctor said that he may have Covid and is ranked. I am worried about this
Male | 80
A sudden drop in blood pressure, especially to a level as low as 20, is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention. It can lead to less blood flow to vital organs, including the brain, and result in symptoms such as loss of consciousness and difficulty moving. These are serious symptoms pls don't ignore those. Your neurologist and their hospital team can guide you with treatment.

When your body battles illnesses, small lumps called lymph nodes help fight infections. At times, they become swollen on your head. These bean-shaped lumps could provoke headaches. You should visit a neurologist to find out more.

It's essential to consult a neurologist, as these symptoms may be related to underlying neurological or circulatory issues.
