Answered on 23rd May '24
This is a common type called a tension headache. These types of headaches can cause pain behind your eyes. They can also make you feel a stabbing pain at the back of your head. Stress, bad posture, or lack of sleep often cause them. Try to relax and drink lots of water. Do some easy neck stretches too. If the headaches keep happening, talk to a doctor.

I’m 28 years old female..I have this right side temple and eye pain…it comes and goes..a dull pain..im a shortsighted person..can it be due to my sight problem or could it be a sinus problem??
Female | 28
The pain in your right temple and eye could be due to your shortsightedness, as eye strain can cause headaches. However, it could also be related to sinus issues. I recommend visiting an ophthalmologist to check your vision and an ENT specialist to rule out sinus problems.

Male | 30
You might have recurrent fever together with a terrible headache. This could be the case for many reasons for example infections or inflammatory conditions. It's necessary to consult a neurologist to establish the very cause. In the meantime, drink lots of fluids, get lots of sleep, and try to avoid exercise.

I was twitching all night and when I was awake too and that never happened before. Took magnesium but that did not help. Now still feeling like I am about to twitch again like electricity running through my body
Female | 27
Muscle twitches occur for varying reasons. Stress, lack of sleep, or excessive caffeine intake can trigger them. Alternatively, vitamin deficiencies may be the culprit. Since magnesium didn't alleviate your symptoms, trying other supplements or consulting a neurologist might be beneficial. Additionally, ensuring adequate hydration and rest could potentially mitigate the twitching.

I am 66 years old.Iam having sensorineural hearing loss since 2021.Iam not able to hear without hearing aid.is it possible to reverse my hearing.
Male | 66
Sensorineural hearing loss happens when hair cells in the inner ear are damaged. This condition is common and can't be reversed, but hearing aids can help by making sounds louder and reducing noise. It's important to protect your ears from loud noises to prevent further damage. Regular check-ups with an audiologist are essential for effective treatment.

Sar main neurological problem hai stroke ilaaj karana hai sar
पुरुष | 19
A stroke is a nervous system problem that can cause symptoms like weakness, difficulty speaking, and confusion. It happens when the brain is starved of oxygen due to a blocked blood vessel or a burst blood vessel. Stroke treatment varies and may include medications, therapy, or surgery. The best chance of recovery is if you get to the hospital as soon as possible.

Is there any treatment for optical nerve injury vision loss
Male | 32
The optic nerve is crucial for the eyes to send signals to the brain for clear vision. Blurred sight, color vision loss, and even blindness can occur. Causes include head trauma, inflammation, glaucoma, and other diseases. Sadly, damaged optic nerves can't fully heal. But treating root causes and eye care may stop further harm. Seeing an eye doctor regularly helps manage vision changes, and keeps eyes healthy.

It's the middle of the night and I keep stretching my legs my arms and everything continuously and it's driving me crazy and I don't seem to fall asleep what's wrong with me??
Female | 15
You might be feeling the restless legs syndrome. It is a kind of disorder that can lead to you wanting to move your legs (or even hands) all the time, especially during the night. It can greatly affect the process of falling asleep. Restless legs syndrome is usually due to low iron, numerous medications, or other health conditions. Reaching the reason beneath it and then applying some life changes can help. Visit a health specialist for a personalized answer.

from past 1 week i have been feeling really sleepy to the point where i am sleeping 10hours and after waking up still feeling the urge to sleep ...tired ,weak ,also feeling lightheadedness ...can u plz help me out with the diagnosis
Female | 24
Your symptoms of excessive sleepiness, tiredness, weakness, and lightheadedness could indicate anemia. Anemia occurs when your body lacks enough red blood cells to carry oxygen to your organs, making you feel tired and dizzy. This may be due to iron deficiency, blood loss, or a health issue affecting your red blood cells. I suggest visiting a doctor for a blood test to check your iron levels. Including iron-rich foods like spinach, beans, and lean meats in your diet can also help.

Headaches are one of the most common health problems, and they can be brought about by stress, lack of sleep, dehydration, and so on. Now that the medications you consumed are no longer effective, how about if you would like to use relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, drinking water, or applying a cold compress to your head?

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.

I have diagnosed epilepsy, and I currently take 200mg of lamotrigine. I am still experiencing frequent seizures and also cluster seizures. I would like to discuss if I would have any options to add another medication alongside lamotrigine to try and control my seizures.
Female | 26
You’re still having seizures despite taking lamotrigine. It’s a medication commonly used for epilepsy. When seizures continue, adding another medication may help control them. Your doctor may suggest options such as levetiracetam or valproic acid. These medicines work in different ways to prevent seizures. Discuss with your doctor to find the best option for you.

April 12,2023 I was showering when I finish I heard a sound in my head like pipes falling. Then I notice I couldn't hear in my left ear and I started hear a loud buzzing sound. This was a weekend and I couldn't see my doctor until Monday. He had me take a ct scan to rule out a stroke. I then was given a referral to see an ENT . I was told by the ENT that I was deaf in my left ear and a hearing aid wouldn't help me and come back in a month. I became so angry with this person because he didn't care about my health issue. I feel like I am on this journey alone. Through my research, I found there is no cure for sudden hearing loss. However it appears stem cells offer promise for a cure. When do you think there may be a cure or which country is ahead of the curve for a cure.
Male | 76
Sudden hearing loss, like what you've described, is known as sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Common symptoms include hearing a loud buzzing sound and feeling as though your ear is blocked. The exact cause isn't always clear, but it may be related to infections or blood circulation issues in the ear. While there is no known cure, researchers in countries like Japan are exploring stem cell treatments as a potential future option. It's important to prioritize your health and stay in regular contact with your doctor.
