You seem to experience peculiar sensations in your head. The backstory of occipital neuralgia and antidepressants might shed light. The chilly feeling and tingling atop your head could stem from nerve sensitivity or medication side effects. Keeping your neurologist informed about these symptoms is crucial, so they can offer suitable guidance and potentially modify your treatment if needed.

Male | 69
Your grandfather might be experiencing tongue problems acquired after a recent stroke. This is the term for dysphagia, which is difficulty in swallowing and speaking. Amazingly, he can now open his mouth and move his tongue slowly. For him to make a full recovery, speech therapy might be useful. Exercises and techniques help in the aspect of toning control of the tongue and swallowing, adding to the general treatment of dysphagia.

Female | 20
Common symptoms affecting brain function include headaches, confusion, memory issues, or mood changes. These can arise from stress, lack of sleep, or nutritional deficiencies. Prioritizing a balanced diet, regular exercise, and sufficient rest can significantly help. However, since you're experiencing troubling symptoms, I encourage you to schedule an appointment with a neurologist. They can provide accurate assessments and tailored advice to address your concerns effectively.

I am 23 years old. I am feeling dizzy all of sudden. what should I do doctor.
Female | 23
Dizziness strikes out of nowhere. Causes range from dehydration to blood sugar drops or even ear infections. If hit with dizziness, sit or lie down, sip water slowly, and relax. Maybe munch on a snack if low blood sugar's suspected. But persistent dizziness warrants seeing a doctor; determine the real reason.

Dear Doctor, I am experiencing severe, continuous headaches along with a feeling of dizziness (as if my head is shaking) when lying down. I have also vomited and feel faint. These symptoms persist and are causing significant discomfort. Could you please advise on the next steps or any immediate treatment? Thank you.
Male | 25
Dear Patient, Your report of a significant pain level worries me and I am sorry to hear of this. The very frequent ossification, nausea, and drowsiness that come to you as an offset may have a hidden impact such as a migraine, lack of water, or even middle ear problems. I propose drinking enough water and resting in a dark, calm environment to mitigate your headache. Nevertheless, you should consult a neurologist for, particular treatment advice.

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.

Doing screen-staring for too long or not drinking enough water could also provoke headaches. Resting, hydrating, and taking breaks from screens can be beneficial. Some of the advice includes neck exercises and the cool compress is also a good idea. If the pain doesn't go away, consult a neurologist.

I’m 18 year old female, 5.5 and 1/2 160 pounds, for the past 3 months I’ve been having dizzy spells, blurry vision and sometimes loss of vision, my whole body heats up, sometimes I puke, it happens a lot when I get out of the shower and I don’t take hot showers. I take Vyvanse,
Female | 18
This sounds like the symptoms of a condition called postural orthostatic syndrome (POTS). POTS can make you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint when you stand up. It can also cause your vision to blur when standing up, heat intolerance, and nausea upon standing up. Vyvanse could worsen these symptoms. Drinking lots of fluids and adding more salt to your diet might help. Talk to your doctor about this.

I am 24 year old and I m having stiffness in my head feel pinching irritation and feels empty like feeling very quick and tired
Female | 24
Hey, Welcome to ClinicSpots. We understand your concerns and are here to provide guidance.
Feeling stiffness, pinching irritation, and a sense of emptiness in your head could indicate various underlying factors. These symptoms may stem from stress, anxiety, or even migraines. Stress often manifests as tension headaches or a feeling of pressure in the head. It's also possible these symptoms could be related to migraines, which can cause throbbing pain and sensitivity to light and sound. Additionally, conditions like anxiety can contribute to sensations of head stiffness and quick fatigue. It's important to consider any recent changes in your lifestyle or stress levels that might be triggering these symptoms.
Next Steps to Follow
- Consult a Healthcare Professional: Schedule an appointment with a neurologist or a primary care physician to discuss your symptoms in detail. They can conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause.
- Medical Evaluation: Your doctor may recommend diagnostic tests such as imaging studies or blood tests to rule out neurological conditions or other health issues.
- Lifestyle Modifications: Practice stress management techniques, and gentle exercises like yoga or meditation, and maintain a regular sleep schedule to support overall well-being and manage symptoms.
- Follow-up: Keep track of any changes in your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider as advised.
Health Tip
Incorporate relaxation techniques into your daily routine to help alleviate symptoms. Deep breathing exercises and gentle stretches can help reduce tension and promote relaxation.

I have sleep disorder, and an underlying diagnosis of Myasthenia Gravis. Also, have Nasal septum slight deviation, and turbinate hypertrophy. Have not been able to sleep for more than an hour or 2, for past 3-4 months. Have been told to do Sleep study, but I have anxiety with putting cords or mask, so couldn't even do a Sleep study due to Nasal cannula requirement. Also, I feel difficulty breathing in flat position, and usually because of that fear, haven't laid flat in past 2-3 months. How should I go about solving this issue? Where to start?
Female | 77
It's normal to feel anxious about a sleep study. Your symptoms could be related to Myasthenia Gravis or a nasal issue, especially if you have trouble breathing when lying flat. Good sleep is vital for your health, so share your concerns with your healthcare team. They may suggest alternatives like home sleep tests or other ways to improve your sleep. Identifying the cause of your sleep problems is key to finding the right solution for you.

Female | 75
Parkinson's is capable of its symptoms: the phenomenon of tremors, stiffness, and changes in consciousness. There are different reasons why it might occur, such as the combination of genetic and environmental factors. You might also visit her neurologist who would give a proper estimation of the results and then, if needed, would introduce new plans.

Something popped on the right side of my brain, and it feels soar and has tiny spurts of pain. When it first happens I had light headaches around my head. Nothing seriously painful, and I’m having dizzy spells. Nothing uncontrollable but it’s weird.
Male | 35
The description seems as if you might have a certain issue called a migraine. Zapping sensations in the brain are the "popping" which can be accompanied by a headache and dizziness. The pain is temporary but, these headaches can feel sore to the point of causing a brief moment of pain. A lot of times, the cause of the migraines is stress, deprivation of sleep, and high intake of certain foods. Along with the symptoms, you might want to rest in a quiet, dark room and drink fluids to hydrate. If the symptoms continue or worsen, visit a neurologist for additional treatment and checking.

Female | 19
You are experiencing multiple serious symptoms, including chest discomfort, depression, anxiety, and other physical issues like pain in your face, jaw, and throat. Antidepressants should help, but if they are making things worse, you should immediately consult a psychiatrist for a review of your medications. Also, for your chest pain and physical discomfort, you may need to see a neurologist and possibly a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.

Female | 39
The blood vessels are influenced by Behcet’s disease which may result in walking problems and unsteadiness. It can cause inflammation anywhere in the body including the brain. To alleviate these signs, drugs can be used to decrease swellings and alleviate pains. To enhance balance and reinforce muscles, physical therapy might be advised. Ensure you closely adhere to what your neurologist tells you to alleviate your symptoms.

I'm a 35 year old man. I have numbness in both my hands for the last 4 days and today my lips are also numb. What should I do?
Male | 25
It might be numbness of hands and lips which could be a nerve problem. The main causes can be a lack of vitamins or compression of nerves. Make sure that your meals are diversified. Rather, try different procedures of raising your hands and be careful to keep the pressure off the nerves. Ask a neurologist to rule out possible causes if symptoms don't disappear or worsen.
