I recommend taking the medication as prescribed to you by your doctor. But if you experience any side effects from it or want to go for some other treatment, you can talk to your neurologist. He will suggest some other treatments based on your condition like lifestyle changes, CBT or acupuncture etc. Also, follow-ups is must.

Some medicines can have memory side effects. Memory can be improved with non-tropic options, for example, CDP-Choline, L Theanine, Huperzine A, B6, and Piracetam; these can be considered. You mentioned another option, Vipocetine. It is best to talk to a neurologist before trying all of these together to make sure they are safe for you.

Keep going dizzy and felling sick
Female | 35
Reasons for dizziness and nausea can also be divided into several categories. It could be due to water deficiency, not proper eating, or over-exercising. Get enough sleep, take care of your diet, and hydrate well. If dizziness and nausea would be the things that continue to occur, it would be better to consult a neurologist.

Haii doc, Thanks in advance for answering my questions. Doc my problem is something fishy like I feel unstable and dizzy while hearing load sounds noise and also in closed rooms and sometimes due to horns of buses. I use to get out of the place to make myself relax before I get dizzy on floor. Could you help me regarding this
Male | 23
You may be experiencing noise-induced dizziness, wherein loud sounds or certain surroundings make you feel off-balance or dizzy. It can occur as a result of the sensitivity of your inner ear. It is perfectly normal to be anxious in such situations. Try the earplugs in the noisy areas and take short breaks in the quieter spots. If the issue remains, it is necessary to talk with a neurologist for more information in case of a further problem.

I have a huge headache all the time
Male | 30
You're dealing with a persistent headache, which can be tough to endure. Common causes include stress, dehydration, or lack of sleep. It might also stem from eye strain or tension in your neck and shoulders. To help, try drinking more water, getting enough rest, and practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or gentle stretching. If the headache persists, consider consulting a neurologist for further evaluation.

If you're noticing symptoms of Parkinson's disease, it might indicate you're experiencing it. The disease can cause slow movement in the hands and other body parts due to malfunctioning brain cells that control movement. Medications and physical therapies like exercises can help manage these symptoms. It's important to consult a neurologist for the best advice.

I have cervical spondylitis since past 6 months. Doctor prescribed many medicines. But i have headache and itching in head. i feel something crawling in my head and scalp itches too. Now i feel pain in my neck and left hand and heaviness in left side in 2 fingers. I also had physiotherapy for 10 days. I have my MRI report too.
Female | 54
It sounds like you may have a neurological condition in addition to cervical spondylitis. Headache, itching, crawling sensation on scalp, and pain in the neck and hand are all common symptoms of a neurological condition. It would be best for you to see a neurologist for further evaluation and treatment. The MRI report may provide some insight into what is causing your symptoms, but it is unlikely to be the only factor. The neurologist may recommend further tests, such as an EEG or nerve conduction studies, to pinpoint the source of your symptoms. In the meantime, it may be beneficial for you to continue with the physiotherapy and take any medications prescribed by your doctor.

I am a 60 years old woman and I have Chiari malformation syndrom since 20 years
Female | 60
Chiari malformation syndrome occurs when the lower region of the brain known as the cerebellum gets compressed through the skull hole that permits the spinal cord to pass. It can lead to symptoms such as headaches, neck pain, dizziness, or walking problems. Treatment can be routine medications for the symptoms and sometimes surgery to relieve the pressure on the brain. Discuss your symptoms with your neurologist.

The pain might be due to nerve compression affecting the L3, L4, L5, and S1 vertebrae in your legs. It's best to see a neurologist, as they specialize in this area. They might suggest medications to reduce pain and inflammation. Physiotherapy and simple exercises could help relieve the pain and strengthen your back and core muscles, which will benefit your health in the long run.

On Feb 4 I did brain scan there is a doubt of brain tumor . I get headache
Female | 30
You had a brain scan, raising concerns about a brain tumor causing headaches. Headaches indicate tumors, along with nausea, weakness, and impaired vision. Abnormal cells multiplying in the brain form tumors. Tumor treatment involves surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy. Follow your neurologist's advice for further evaluation and management.

Male | 21
The red skin, tingling, pain, and nerve issues could be from too many bad molecules in your body. These bad molecules can hurt cells. To help stop the bad molecules, eat more fruits and veggies. Also, talk to your doctor about helper pills that may stop these issues from the bad molecules.

Perhaps your radial nerve injury led to a permanent loss of finger extension. It is better to visit a neurologist or an orthopedic surgeon to get an accurate diagnosis and what the possible treatments could be. They may also refer you to a hand specialist if necessary.

Female | 17
You might be suffering from post-concussion syndrome. This can often occur after traumatic brain injury. The main symptoms are the sudden surge of heat, constant headaches, light, and smell sensitivity, dizziness, and vomiting. Taking a break from activities that require mental concentration, drinking enough water, steering clear of triggers, and keeping in touch with your neurologist are all necessary steps for your recovery. They can offer help of the right kind that would be suitable for you.

Sir, I have headache like tight band with nausea, stress and tension. Sir please give me some medicines for relief.
Male | 17
You may have a tension headache. This headache feels like a tight band around the head and can cause vomiting. Common causes for these headaches include stress and tension, poor sleeping habits, or eye strain from looking at screens too much. To alleviate your symptoms, you should take some non-prescription painkillers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Additionally, get enough rest and drink plenty of water while trying relaxation methods like deep breathing exercises or light workouts. If they don’t go away or get worse it would be best if you visited your doctor so that he could give them proper attention.

I'm having headache since morning taken disprine and proper 8 hours sleep but having tha same please suggest
Male | 25
Headaches are varied and can be caused by the smallest things such as stress, dehydration, or looking at a display for a long time. Pain relief is sometimes simple and in this case, Disprin will help. Also, drink water, have a break every half hour of screen time, and learn to control bad thoughts by doing relaxation exercises such as deep breathing. If pain persists for a day, or if the symptoms worsen, consult a doctor to conduct a full examination and have them prescribe the best form of recovery.

My family are on a trip to god's place and My brother got fits today like 3 times and he is behaving abnormal...what can we do?
Male | 30
Your brother may have had seizures, which are also called fits, and can make people behave strangely. There are many reasons why seizures occur – for instance, epilepsy or a high fever. If you see someone having a seizure, put them down gently on their side so that they don’t get hurt. Don’t try to hold his tongue or put anything in his mouth. Keep calm throughout this period then seek medical attention immediately after it is over. Finding out what caused him to convulse is important as well as getting him treated appropriately.

The time was 2 years ago, one day without knowing it, I felt a biting muscle above the left ankle. Then little by little after a few days the muscles started biting down to the knee and some pain in the tendon with it seemed as if the tendon was getting tight. In such a way, it gradually became the same condition as the completely fit. He also started having problems with the nerves in his head. Now the right side has the same problem. Now I feel some problem in the stomach and toilet. But no problem with urination yet. Why are they happening? And now what should I do please tell me!!!! I have seen two doctors. One says that the spinal cord is directly caused. Another says that they are caused by impingement on the spine. Treatment is not working.!!!!
Male | 18
These symptoms may be because of something in your spine, or spinal cord that is putting pressure on the nerves. You might have been through tests already. The body part essential for treatment will need to be precisely identified. If the current treatment is not helpful, need to find the right specialist so there is a chance of a second opinion or neurologist and orthopedic doctor for further evaluation and guidance can be provided.
