1 Answer

Answered on 23rd Sept '24

Bilateral basal ganglia calcification is a condition where large calcium deposits form in the brain, potentially causing movement issues like stiffness and tremors. These deposits can result from inherited disorders or metabolic disturbances. Treatment typically involves drug therapy and counseling, tailored to the specific symptoms and underlying cause.

You should immediately consult a neurologist or neurosurgeon to know the brain tumor size and type. The treatment options will vary based on the location, size, and type of tumor, among others. Only the best doctor can design the most suitable treatment plan.

Can you please identified my problem of headpain that occurs once in a year in the month of March and April

Male | 23

Seasonal migraine­s seem like your issue­. Head pain comes back yearly, same­ time. You might feel sick, se­nsitive to light or sound, also vision issues. To avoid these­, stay hydrated. Get plenty of sle­ep. Keep stre­ss in check.

I have some memory issue I forget things very easily Tingling sensation in hand and feet Headache Weakness

Female | 17

The possibility that a person may have memory problems, tingling in the hands and feet, headaches, or muscle weakness suggests that there may be a shortage of specific vitamins in his/her body like vitamin B12. Taking vitamin B12 could assist in this deficit and could be found in meat and dairy products.

I couldn't sleep for 2 months as whever i sleep even for 10 mins i get a dream everytime. I am sleeping for minimum 3 hours a day and i am always tired even without work.

Female | 33

You can't get to sleep and walk around like a zombie during the day. If you have dreams every time you sleep, however, they may be short, and you are not getting REM sleep which is the deep sleep you need. As a result, you may feel you have more energy than you do. Thus, this might be a sleep disorder. If the problem persists, see a sleep specialist who can help with the evaluation and therapy.

I'm from the country and all waste water accumulates in a septic tank. My parents don't usually call that truck home to dump the contents, they take care of it by dumping all the liquid in their own garden on a corn crop. Indeed, we do not actually eat the corn, but we do eat the rest of the nearby plants. But the birds they have, and from which we consume the eggs, consume some of that corn. I am very concerned about my physical health, especially my brain, and my fear is that I may have ingested substances from detergents/toothpaste over time, such as fluoride, which I know is neurotoxic, or other strong substances, etc. . . The usual analyzes always turned out fine for me. I drew their attention to these things and they told me that there are other people who do the same thing and apparently nothing happened. Should I worry/do something about it? I'm thinking that maybe those substances in the detergents and everything that gets there affect the nervous system, the brain. The plants in the garden show no signs of damage, probably because the detergents contain substances similar to fertilizers. Also, I'm wondering if from the feces, if some guest is infected with some parasite, and they then end up on the soil, can I also get them through the plants and affect components of my SN? Does all this accumulate in them? I can't stop eating food/eggs from home because I just started college, I have 6 more years until I can choose what and when to eat, have my own salary. I was thinking that for my own peace of mind, I would have a brain MRI this year to make sure everything is ok, as well as the usual urine test, which he can arrange for from the GP. Do you think it's okay?

Male | 18

While it's natural to worry, it's unlikely that the small amount of substances from detergents or toothpaste in the water would cause significant harm to your brain. Eating the food grown in the garden is generally safe, as plants can filter out harmful substances. It's encouraging to know that your health reports are okay. Getting a brain MRI and urine test for peace of mind is a proactive step, and it's okay to do.

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.

Respected Dr sahab I suffered laziness and tiredness every time but I taken satvit plus co q forte not batter. My sugar, thyroid, vitamin D and vitamin b12 all are ok. pl suggest

Male | 45

If your sugar, thyroid, vitamin D, and vitamin B12 are all normal, then the Satvit Plus Co Q Forte may not be the best choice for you. It is possible that you are just feeling tired due to a lack of sleep or stress. Consider getting more sleep, exercising regularly, and reducing stress. In addition, make sure you are eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables and avoiding processed foods. Finally, if you are still feeling tired, consider talking to your doctor about other potential causes and treatments.

Iam 36 year old female.iam having throbbing pain in left head temple.what wrong

Female | 36

The pain you feel could be caused by stress, not enough sleep, or even dehydration. Try to drink water, lie down in a calm place, and massage your temples gently. If it doesn’t go away or gets worse than before please consult with your doctor immediately.

The most common reasons for this are stress, lack of sleep, and eye strain. Try to relax, get enough sleep, and consider using cold packs on your forehead. If it doesn’t improve, it’s best to see a doctor for further evaluation.

My grandfather age is 69 he had second brain strike and he unable to eat and speak but after 3 month now he able to speak slow slow and today he got anger and eat food by himself without asked anyone after I asked him is any problem to swallow food he said no problem and easy to swallow so please doctor suggest me can we start giving him food by mouth

Male | 69

The symptoms of difficulty eating and speaking are the general ones that occur after a brain stroke. It may be attributed to the muscles used for swallowing being weak. Seeing that he mentioned no problem swallowing and eating by himself, you can slowly start to give him food by mouth. Begin with soft, easy-to-swallow foods and keep track of his progress. Do not forget to communicate with his healthcare team along the way.
