Why Am I Experiencing Urinary Incontinence and Lack of Hunger Post-Stroke?
Its been 5 months,post stroke treatment,urinary incontinence, not feeling of hunger

Neurosurgeon
Answered on 30th May '24
After someone has had a stroke, they may not be able to control their bladder and bowel movements. This can result in them wetting or soiling themselves accidentally. One of the reasons for this is that the brain may not be sending the right signals for feeling hungry either. The problem could also be due to damage from the stroke affecting this part of the brain. It would therefore help if you talked with your doctor about it. They could think of ways to help you such as through exercises or drugs.

Choroid plexuses cyst in left lateral ventricle
Female | 21
Choroid plexus cysts are fluid-filled sacs commonly found in the brain and often discovered during imaging studies. They usually do not cause any symptoms and are generally harmless. The exact reasons for their formation remain unclear, but they often resolve on their own over time. It's important to follow up with your neurologist, who may recommend regular monitoring through scans to ensure there are no changes.

Why I am feeling suddenly dizziness
Female | 24
Dizziness can make you feel like things are spinning or you're off balance. It can happen if you stand up too quickly, are dehydrated, or get up after lying down. Sometimes, it's due to low blood sugar. Other reasons could be problems in the inner ear or even stress. To help, sit or lie down, drink water, and eat if your blood sugar is low. If it persists, talk to a healthcare provider so they can figure out the cause.

It seems like you are having problems with falling asleep at night. Some common signs of insomnia are difficulty in sleeping, feeling exhausted during the day, and not being interested in things. It can result from stress, a harmful lifestyle, or some other reasons. Try to keep your room dark, stay away from screens before sleeping, and come up with a relaxing bedtime routine that will help you sleep better.

Neurological issues on going 18 mths, no doc is helping me now worse pain all over my left side body and chronic headaches and head pressure also experiencing electric shock sensations from head to abdomen and horrible spasams in chest and pain in left breast and sholder and neck
Female | 40
Pain on your left side and chronic headaches, the two motions you report might stem from several causes for instance nerve trouble or muscle health issues. The electric shock, which you describe as the jerk and jolt you feel, may well be associated with the nerve sensations. It mimics or is seen as the breathing pattern of a muscle when someone overuses or tightens the muscle during a workout, causing intercostal muscle pain. You should be upfront with your health issues and choose a neurologist to get an appropriate diagnosis followed by a treatment plan that is suitable for you.

I am suffering the following: - Post Polio Residual Paralysis cerebral vascular accident Is it coming under Multiple disability or Locomotor Disability
Male | 64
Your conditions, Polio Residual Paralysis and cerebral vascular accident (stroke) would generally be categorized as "Multiple Disabilities" rather than "Locomotor Disability." Multiple Disabilities involve coexisting impairments in different body systems, while Locomotor Disability typically refers to issues related to mobility. It's important to consult a medical professional for accurate classification.

I AM 22 YEARS OLD MY HAND MILD TREMORS
Male | 22
Hand tremors at 22 years old are quite uncommon but can happen. Stress, high consumption of caffeine, and sleep deprivation that, in some cases, can even be exacerbated by demanding situations might all be implicated. Take a deep breath, cut down on coffee, and get some sleep. If the tremors become more frequent or more severe, it is advisable to undergo a medical examination to find out if other possible causes are present.

I am 25 years old male. I had type 1 diabetes mellitus. I had headache resulting from needle prick after blood glucometer test last evening. As of now, I am not experiencing any fever and the dull headache is radiating from back to front. Why does it happen?
Male | 25
It's common to experience headaches following a needle prick, even if no infection develops. Your discomfort might stem from muscle tension or minor irritation around the area. Ensure you stay hydrated and consider gentle stretching to relieve any tightness. Over-the-counter pain relievers can be helpful if discomfort persists. Since you’re managing type 1 diabetes, it’s essential to monitor any unusual symptoms closely. If the headache continues or worsens, don’t hesitate to reach out to a neurologist for further evaluation.

My grandfather age is 69 he had second brain stroke after 3 month now he able to speak slow slow today he got anger and eat food by himself without ask anyone after I ask him is any problem you in eat he said no problem and easy to eat . so please doctor suggest me can we start giving him food by mouth
Male | 69
It is quite predictable for a person who had a stroke for the second time to have trouble speaking and experiencing behavior changes. The good thing is that he ate without any problem which is a way forward. His improved swallowing ability is reflected in his independent eating skills. It's necessary to lay a good basis by cutting out soft foods and liquids to avoid choking. Let him carry out the process of swallowing without being rushed. It's recommended that a speech therapist or a healthcare provider be the one to provide him with a diet plan that he must follow carefully.

Hy. More than one month ago during shower I have washed my anus and ( probabile also my colon). I have removed the shower head and i have put the nozzle into my ass...like 3 or 4 times. Like 10 minutes later started a flash stabbing pain in my left big toe. Next days better little bit after i have niumbness, flashing sometimes prickling and tingling in my legs and arms. In this moment I have burning in my all upper body. ( in my back and arms burn , hot.) I don't have fever! So probabile I have neuropathy ( polyneuropathy) symptoms. My question is the anal douching it could have been caused this symptoms ? Or it's caused by something else?? I am 28 years old. I don't have other sickness. Sorry for my english.
Male | 28
Dependent on the symptoms given, it’s unlikely that anal douching causes your neuropathy symptoms. Neuropathy mostly comes from related factors such as diabetes or nerve injury neuropathy. For a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, see a neurologist. Meanwhile, avoid inserting anything into your anus and focus on staying healthy generally.

Hi, I'm m18,I consumed edible cannabis around a week ago , days has passed by ,and right now I'm having constant headaches and in some positions I can feel the blood pumping in brain too.
Male | 18
Your headaches which occurred after eating edible cannabis could be connected with cannabis use. Occasionally, marijuana can trigger headaches as a result. This might be an explanation for the sensation of blood pouring into your brain. To manage your symptoms, do not forget to drink plenty of water, get enough sleep, and try to consult a specialist for further advice.

Inhaling gas, taking alcohol and some drugs can be dangerous especially when coupled with lack of sleep and food. Symptoms such as headache and shivering might mean that your body is stressed. Take a rest, eat well, and keep off harmful substances.

I just need to make sure there’s nothing wrong with me. I’m in a lot I’m feeling diffuseness like under the rib pain incredibly dry mouth sore eyes forgetfulness, nausea, wheezing chest pain
Female | 14
I listened to your worries about being unwell and describing different symptoms. What you feel, for example, like down at the liver, no saliva, the eyes are so sore, and nausea, could be one of the many possible reasons, including strain, allergy, or dryness that might be the cause. To treat issues like these, you need to look at the whole picture. Keep drinking water, sleeping, and lowering stress levels. However, this magic can be a call for professional help as well. My advice is to see a healthcare professional so that they can screen you fully. They will help you personally with the right advice and health care you need to get better.

Female | 19
It is normal to go through uneasiness following a stroke. It can cause trouble concentrating and brain fog. But, generally, these problems tend to be resolved as your brain heals. Rest, eat, and drink well. It is also essential to fulfill the potential recommendations of your neurologist.

My father is 77 years old, he has shivering problem, his hands and legs shook severely, now he has no control on toilet.
Male | 77
Sounds like your dad might have something called Parkinson’s. This makes hands and legs shake a lot and causes problems controlling when you have to pee. What happens is certain cells in his brain stop working right. A neurologist can give him drugs or teach him exercises to help with these things.

If I don’t say something immediately I will forget it after
Male | 13
If you often forget things quickly, it could be due to something called short-term memory loss. Symptoms include difficulty remembering recent events or information. This can happen due to stress, lack of sleep, or not paying attention. Try to practice good sleep habits, reduce stress, and pay attention when you learn new things. Writing things down can also help you remember better.

My grandfather age is 69 he has second brain stroke before 5 month today his throat is peining (nv tude is use to feeding) please doctor tell is any problem related to stroke
Male | 69
Often after a stroke, people can have problems swallowing. This is called dysphagia. It can be painful to the throat and hence eating or drinking becomes difficult. This is because the muscles associated with swallowing may not work properly after a stroke. Discuss this with your neurologist to accomplish feeding and avoid any complications.
