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.

Female | 7
Your daughter's MRI revealed HIE, meaning her brain lacked oxygen during birth. This condition, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, can lead to seizures, feeding difficulties, and developmental delays. Therapies and medications may help her brain recover. Regular checkups will monitor her progress closely. Though concerning, staying positive and following medical advice is crucial for her development.

Female | 29
The condition of the brain which is responsible for recurring seizures is called Epilepsy. Seizures may differ from one individual to another who may either have a staring spell, muscle jerk, or a blackout. Generally, it takes a long time to get well with the medication, or in some cases, even surgery is required. Do not forget to adhere to your neurologist's recommendations for the best treatment possible and continue your checkups regularly.

I am a healthy 67 year old, recently I have ɓeen falling down and it takes me over an hour to get myself back up. I don't have diabetes, or high blood pressure, or any heart problems. What could cause something like this??
Female | Tina Carlson
One possible cause of this is muscle weakness or loss of balance due to old age; problems like these can make it more difficult for you to stand back up. You need to talk to a neurologist about it. They might suggest some exercises that will help improve your strength and stability, as well as other treatments aimed at preventing future falls.

I am located in Tanzania. I have ruptured my Achilles tendon. I know I need to have surgery. My concern is I have no feeling in the bottom of my foot, the doctors here want to do the tendon surgery and are saying the damaged nerves may repair themselves. I don't know if that is true or if I should have a neurosurgeon do the surgery.
Female | 51
The nerves that are damaged could heal by themselves with time but it is advisable to seek guidance from a specialist on how best to handle this situation. If you don't want to go ahead with surgery, have a second opinion from a neurosurgeon and based on that take the decision right for you.

He can't walk carefully he falls down,he can't set on the floor he set on chair,he can't speak clearly and he is physically so weak he 7 years old.his weight is 17kg and his height is 105cm
Male | 7
Some kids have difficulty with movement and speaking clearly. This can stem from various reasons. One possibility for a child this age is a neuromuscular disorder, which affects the muscles and nerves involved in movement and speech. It's crucial to take the child to a pediatric specialist for tests to determine the exact cause. Meanwhile, ensure the child gets plenty of rest and proper nutrition. Avoid activities that risk falls or injuries. Addressing symptoms promptly helps the child feel better and stronger.

I am 24 year old I am facing tingling al around my back side of head from 6 months
Female | 24
You have been feeling some tingle around the back of your head for a long time. Emotional stress, poor body position, and not enough sleep can all be reasons for this. To help, try to loosen your shoulders, keep a good posture, and sleep sufficiently at night. If the tingling occurs and then gets worse, it's better to consult a neurologist to get proper instructions.

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.
