Random numbness in your body can feel quite worrying. Causes include circulation issues, compressed nerves, or anxiety. For prevention, eat nutritious foods, exercise regularly, and manage stress levels. However, if you are experiencing persistent numbness, visit a neurologist to identify the underlying reason and receive proper treatment.

Dizziness is often caused by things like not drinking enough water, having low blood sugar, problems with the inner ear, or even just feeling stressed out. It might be best if this has been happening for some time to go and see a doctor. The appointment would be with a healthcare provider who can know why you feel dizzy and will treat you.

relatively symmetrical patchy t2/flair hyperintensities in bilateral posterior periventricular white matter
Male | 33
You have referred to the data collected, showing structural changes in the brain caused by specific conditions including age-related changes, small vessel disease, and migraine. The very changing levels of symptoms could be mild cognitive changes to intense headaches. To ensure the most accurate and thorough diagnosis by a professional, you must go to a neurologist for further evaluation. With the help of healthcare providers, you can be prescribed some diagnostic ULTRASOUND or proper treatment, including biofeedback, for the specific situation you are in.

Male | 69
The stroker or synchronized swimming effect of water can occur after a stroke due to weakness in the throat muscles. Ask the doctor if they can refer you to a speech therapist to help improve swallowing. They may also suggest safe methods for eating and drinking.

Female | 26
You sound as though you have a migraine. Migraines not only cause your head to hurt a lot but also can make you feel very weak. The cause may be stress, not getting enough sleep, or eating particular foods. To assist you, practice to relax, get enough sleep, and stay away from things like bright lights and loud sounds that may trigger you. Should the situation not improve, it would be wise to consult a neurologist for more information.

Male | 24
Muscular dystrophy is a condition where your muscles gradually weaken, making it difficult to walk, stand, and move your arms. It's usually inherited, so it often runs in families. While there’s no cure, physical therapy and medications can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

Male | 31
You have been feeling a ringing in your ears with racing thoughts and eye redness when you focus too much. Stress or anxiety can be the reason for these symptoms. To help relax your mind, you can try deep breathing exercises, meditation, or gentle yoga. Apart from that, listening to soothing music or taking a nature walk might also help you in reducing stress.

Female | 49
You might be dealing with stress, maybe too much strain or not enough rest. The human body reacts to stress in such a way that all these things can happen. To feel better, the recommended course of action is: to relax more, try to get some sleep, and practice breathing exercises or do some gentle exercises.

31 weeks growth scan report shows small head size 27.5 hc will it affect my babys brain development ,how to improve hc in pregnancy
Female | 24
A smaller head circumference (HC) can mean that the baby is not growing as fast as they should be. Genetics and poor food intake are some reasons why this may happen. Ensure you have a well-balanced diet throughout your pregnancy to increase HC; take plenty of nutrients too. In addition, your physician might suggest some supplements or keep a close eye on the infant’s development. Always keep in touch with your doctor so that both of you receive adequate care.

Hi Doctor ,my child 3.5 yrs weight 11.7kg is a known case of seizure of unknown cause since 5 months of age.Now she is on Soval chrono 350 mg per day..... seizure is under control......all investigation are normal like eeg,MRI and other blood test......is the treatment going on in right track? She has leg pain at night time.Her latest serum valproic acid level is 115 which is slightly in toxic level.what to do now please suggest.
Female | 3
It's good your child's seizures remain controlled, although the night leg pains and higher valproic acid levels need discussion. Night leg pains might signal low magnesium or calcium, so checking those could help explain it. To address the higher valproic acid level, adjusting that medication dose may resolve it. Follow up with your child's doctor about these symptoms and potential treatment changes. If any other concerns arise, don't hesitate to reach out to a neurologist for guidance.

My mother aged 79 is on the following medication For morning - 1 tab levepsy 500, 1 tab calcuim and 1 tab metaprol 25 mg For night - 1 tab levepsy 500, 1 tab pregablin and 1 tab doxolin But by mistake today gave the night dose twice.... Will it effect her in any way....im worried
Female | 79
Accidentally taking two doses of her night medication could make her feel sleepy, unclear, or unbalanced. It's wise to watch over her and ensure she's alright. Remind her to relax and drink plenty of fluids. Should any odd signs appear, don't delay in seeking medical guidance. Most likely, she'll be okay but keep observing her condition for now.

Female | 22
The ringing in your ears and feeling dizzy after ingesting Tramadol Unimed pills may be consequences of the medication. It does not imply that the pills have a beneficial effect. These indications are likely to occur as a result of your body being adjusted to the drug. It is crucial to inform your doctor about these new symptoms so they can assist you in finding the best way to deal with your headaches without these side effects.

Female | 33
Epilepsy can be challenging at this time. It’s worrying that you have a few seizures each year. It may be a good idea to see a neurologist. They can help work out whether it’s safe for you to get pregnant while controlling your fitness. You need to strike the right balance for yourself and your unborn child too.

Hello im 25 years old,im suffering from short term memory loss what should i do
Male | 25
You have a problem with short-term memory loss that you should look out for. For example, you may forget information or events that have just happened. This is common when people are stressed, not sleeping well, or taking certain drugs. You can try relaxation techniques, getting enough sleep, and talking to your doctor about the pills you are taking. If it doesn’t get better or gets worse then go to a neurologist so they can figure out what’s going on.

Hi doctor I have a headache everyday and it only goes away if I take painkiller (ibuprofen) why I have this?
Female | 25
The headaches have arisen regularly and are usually relieved by painkillers. They are characterized by stress, lack of sleep, or a bad posture, and therefore are often the case. It is necessary to trace the main cause. I suggest you engage in stress-relieving activities such as deep breathing, stretching, and getting proper sleep and posture. If the headaches still exist, it is crucial to consult a doctor to diagnose and prevent any hidden causes.
