Valproate (Valproic Acid) is often effective for managing seizures, but it may cause side effects like fatigue, weight changes, or gastrointestinal discomfort. Monitoring his response is essential. Common symptoms of epilepsy include convulsions, unusual movements, or temporary confusion. Causes can vary from genetic factors to brain injuries. Ensuring a consistent medication schedule is vital for stability. Always keep communication open with healthcare providers to adjust treatments as needed. If you notice any new symptoms or concerns, don’t hesitate to consult a neurologist for further guidance.

I met with a head injury and suffered inter parenchymal bleeding and after being 2 months now m still suffering from memory loss not remembering the incident also which led me to this brain injury
Male | 23
Memory loss after intraparenchymal bleeding might occur because of harm to the brain. Failing to recall the accident that caused the injury and having problems remembering recent happenings or learning new things are among the most common symptoms. The best thing to do would be to get as much rest as you can and follow any advice given by your neurologist.

Doctor, can I take 1500 mcg vitamin b12 supplements to increase my brain function as I am a student.
Female | 15
Taking 1500 mcg vitamin B12 supplements may not be required if you do not have a B12 deficiency. B12 deficiency symptoms can involve such matters as depression, dizziness, and memory loss. A blood test is a way to see your vitamin B12 levels. Only in case of a deficiency, the correct dose will be pointed out by your doctor.

When I press my head backside (the place where it was hit when I fell)... It's bleeding from nose... And we took a CT scan they told there's nothing on it... But now it's strted to bleeding on ears and then the eyes on the side where it was hit
Male | 16
It sounds like you are experiencing some serious symptoms, even though your CT scan showed no abnormalities. Bleeding from the nose, ears, and eyes after a head injury can be concerning and should be taken seriously. I strongly recommend that you visit a neurologist or an ENT specialist as soon as possible for a thorough examination and proper treatment. They will be able to assess your condition more accurately and provide the necessary care.

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.

Actually my father had a mini stroke last week. After that we visited doctor they did ct scan and ecg tests. Everything was normal but the ct scan report said that in the left side of brain its little bit injured due to high blood pressure. Now, from 5-6 days he is unable to do any work with his right hand, rest everything is ok. And also he forgot his atm pin, where he kept documents and all.
Male | 47
It sounds like he might have experienced a small stroke (mini-stroke or TIA). It's good that the CT scan and ECG were normal, but the injury on the left side of the brain could be causing the weakness in his right hand and memory issues. I would advise you to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and management.

At the of ejaculation my head both side start severe pain....it is a major problem
Male | 45
Pain on both sides of your head after ejaculation could signify post-coital headache. This moderate to intense pain's exact cause remains unclear. However, it may link to altered blood flow or pressure. Stay hydrated, avoid strenuous sexual activity, and try relaxation techniques to manage it. But if pain persists or worsens, consulting a neurologist becomes crucial for evaluation and proper guidance.

Hellp! I am someone with MS. I have very low vitamin D levels and have had that flr a while. I an currently experiencing pain in my left leg. In both knee and thigh. I have pain and can not stand on it as usual. It is the second time in less than 2 weeks (my knee, first time)
Female | 25
Lack of vitamin D levels in the case of multiple sclerosis patients may be responsible for muscle pain on some occasions. You should be getting enough vitamin D from sunlight or a supplement of vitamin D. Besides that, you can try to make the tension loosen or apply a warm compress to stop the pain. If the pain continues, go to a doctor to get professional advice.

I can feel air moving thru the top of my head when I breath. Is that bad / dangerous?
Female | 25
Air can sometimes pass through the top of your head when you breathe. It may be due to a tiny hole in your skull or close to your sinuses. Or, you may have a blocked nose passage. See a doctor to know for sure. They can tell you the right reason and give treatment if needed.

Mildly hyperdense (HU 42) nodular lesions are seen in the right frontoparietal lobe in the periventricular region. Post contrast images show conglomerate nodular enhancement of these lesions (post contrast 58 HU). Lesions collectively measures approx. 32x18x17 mm. There is surrounding hypodense perilesional edema. No mass effect is seen on right lateral ventricle. No calcific or haemorrhagic densities are observed. Findings are likely suggestive of an underlying neoplastic etiology. Suggest: Contrast MRI brain with spectroscopy evaluation for characterisation. Rest of the brain parenchyma is normal in attenuation. Gray-white matter differentiation
Female | 65
The research suggests strange growths in the right frontoparietal lobe of the brain. They might be a tumor. Usual signs can be such as headaches, visual changes, or seizures. Contrast MRI with spectroscopy can be used to find out what type of growth it is. It is crucial to see an oncologist for proper treatment.

Please help me I'm 38 years old I have pain all over my body I feel sick all the time I'm tried all the time and I have nights sweats for the last week
Male | 38
It seems like you may have some symptoms which could mean many things. Pain everywhere, feeling bad a lot, always being worn out, and sweating at night are all signs of different illnesses. A virus infection might be one cause but so could an immune system disorder or even just stress alone. You need to see a doctor so that they can find out what is going on with you exactly--and then give feedback that is helpful for treating whatever this turns out to be.

Female | 32
You are going through a condition called a migraine aura. These may involve seeing flashing lights, zigzag lines, or blurry vision before a headache begins. Other symptoms may be light and sound hypersensitivity, nausea, and sometimes dizziness. Migraine auras can be a result of stress, some foods, or no sleep. To manage them, you should first identify your triggers, then practice relaxation techniques, and finally, ensure to get enough rest. It is necessary to consult a neurologist for more information if the symptoms continue.
