Could my headache symptoms be serious?
I’ve having this pain in my head and usually on one side and switches after couple of days, and get this feeling of electric shocks in my head and that my head is really heavy and hurts alot when moving and its been for a month now

You could be suffering from migraines. In the case of one-sided headaches in the beginning, one-sided headaches moving to the other side, electric shock feelings, and a heavy head that gets worse with movement, migraines may be responsible. Stress, sleep deprivation, consuming certain foodstuffs, or routine alteration can be the factors leading to a migraine attack. Relaxation, sleeping enough, drinking water, and avoiding triggers are some of the ways you can use to cope. In case it persists, contact a neurologist.

Pain in left-hand palm to elbow numbness and tingling
Male | 30
These signs could mean a pinched nerve — when a nerve is pressed or squeezed. You might get it from bad habits like typing all day or falling asleep in an odd position. To fix it, stop doing the same thing over and over and stretch out gently. Also, if these feelings don’t go away you should see a neurologist.

I’ve been Dey for over 6months and today I woke up to see that I bed wet
Male | 18
Bedwetting, also called nighttime enuresis, happens when urine is released during sleep. It can be caused by factors like a small bladder, deep sleep, or stress. While it's common in kids, some adults experience it too. To help, limit fluids before bed, use the bathroom before sleeping, and try a bathroom alarm. If it continues, consult a doctor for more solutions.

I want to know about rabies dieses
Male | 23
Rabies, a viral disease, spreads through infected animal bites. Common symptoms start with fever, headaches, and fatigue. As it progresses, confusion and swallowing difficulties arise. Preventive vaccination before potential exposure is crucial. If bitten, wash the wound thoroughly and seek medical attention immediately. This deadly disease demands prompt action to avoid severe consequences.

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.

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.

Dear Sir, Below i am sending my father MRI report, kindly guide me. MRI REPORT – BRAIN WITH CONTRAST TECHNIQUE: T1W Sagittal, DWI - b1000, ADC, GRE T2W FS Axial, MR Angiogram, FLAIR Axial & Coronal Post contrast images after administration of 5 ml of gadolinium contrast. OBSERVATION: The study reveals an intrasellar mass lesion, with enlargement of the right half of the anterior pituitary gland, extending to the suprasellar cistern. The mass lesion is predominantly isointense to gray matter on T1-weighted images. On T2-weighted images the mass is predominantly isointense to gray matter with internal areas of T2 hyperintensity suggestive of ?necrosis/cystic change. Dynamic postcontrast images revealed decreased/delayed enhancement of the mass lesion as compared to the rest of the pituitary gland. The mass lesion measures 1.2 AP x 1.6 TR x 1.6 SI cm. Superiorly the mass displaces the infundibulum to the left side. A clear CSF plane of cleavage is seen between the superior aspect of the mass lesion and the optic chasm. No significant parasellar extension of the mass lesion is seen. The cavernous segment of both internal carotid arteries show normal flow void. The mass causes mild thinning of the floor of the sella turcica, with slight bulge toward the roof of the sphenoid sinus. MR findings likely represent pituitary adenoma. Confluent and discrete areas of T2/flair hyperintensity are seen in bilateral supratentorial periventricular and subcortical deep white matter, likely representing nonspecific ischemic changes with a combination of leukoariosis, microvascular ischemic changes, lacunar infarcts and prominent perivascular spaces. Basal ganglia and thalami are normal. Midbrain, pons and medulla are normal in signal intensity. The cerebellum appears normal. Bilateral CP angle cisterns are normal. The ventricular system and subarachnoid spaces are normal. No significant midline shift is seen. The cranio-cervical junction is normal. Post-contrast images reveal no other abnormal enhancing pathology. Bilateral maxillary sinus polyps are noted.

Actually one of my friend who is of 19 years old has taken overdose of medicine..she has taken flunarizin dihydrochloride 6-7 tablet....will it effect or not??
Female | 19
Maybe your friend will be feeling that she/he is very sleepy, very dizzy, or may lose consciousness. This occurs because the body is overwhelmed by the drug. It is crucial to take the right steps immediately and calling emergency services is an important one. They will give the needed treatment so that your friend can heal.

I am sangeetha 43 yrs old from Chennai I have high bp and under active thyroid so taking pills of both. While laying or walking feel unbalanced weakness dizziness vertigo and while laying look body jump
Female | 53
You might feel off-balance, dizzy, like everything moves. That's vertigo. The inner ear may cause it - problems like infection or ear crystals. Since you have high blood pressure and thyroid troubles, see a neurologist. They'll find why you're unbalanced. Maybe meds need adjusting, or exercises can help your balance. Be careful not to fall. Avoid risky things until they improve.

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.

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.

Iv been having issues for about 3 days with the left side of my brain keep pulsating, it feels like a worm moving around the side of my brain, it doesn’t stay or move in one spot, when I press down on the area I feel move it just starts happening in another area on that side of the brain, I can’t sleep because of it, it wakes me up. I also feel like there’s something inside my ear, I also don’t know if this is related but since it’s happened my head has been itchy
Female | 26
What comes to mind is that you might be suffering from a migraine. Such attacks can bring an onslaught of forceful pulse sensations and light or sound intolerance. The sensation you feel in your ear, along with the itch you experience, might be associated with the migraine. To ease your symptoms, attempt to rest in a quiet, dark room, drink plenty of water, and steer clear of stress as well as certain foods that may trigger. If the symptoms remain or the situation worsens, go to a neurologist.

Sir, I have headache like tight band with nausea,stress,tension. Sir,Please give me some medicines for relief.
Male | 17
I see that you have a tight band headache around your head and feel like vomiting because of anxiety and stress as well. These signs might mean that you have a tension-type headache; typically caused by bad posture at work or eyestrain from looking at computer screens all day long. You could take some painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen to help relieve the pain in your head. Moreover try and calm down by breathing deeply plus drink lots of water. If this feeling doesn’t go away please go see a doctor so they can check it out.

I have dizziness throughout the day and head swinging also. Plus there is bleeding slightly light in color. And I had empty stomach throughout the day also.
Female | 25
Dizziness, head swinging, and slightly light bleeding - these symptoms sound like low blood sugar. They happen when you don't eat enough. Your blood sugar drops, making you feel unsteady and dizzy. To help, eat regular meals and snacks all day to keep blood sugar steady. Include a mix of healthy foods: fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins. If the symptoms don't go away, talk to a neurologist. They'll evaluate further.

Male | 20
You're having trouble sleeping. Not getting enough sleep can make one feel tired and grumpy. Common causes of this can be stress, drinking caffeine before bed, or staring at screens late at night. Try to calm down at night by reading a book or having a hot bath. Avoid caffeine as well as screens. If the problem persists, you may want to seek a professional for advice.

Hi there, I'm a 34 year old woman, and I've been experiencing a persistent headache behind my ear on the right side. It's been bothering me for the past week, and I'm starting to get concerned. The pain is sharp and seems to be concentrated in that area. I've tried over-the-counter pain relievers, but they don't provide much relief. I'm wondering if anyone else has dealt with a similar issue or if there are specific treatments or remedies I should consider for this headache behind my ear on the right side. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Male | 59
I recommend that she should visit a neurologist. In MRI, the T2W/FLAIR images exhibited multiple small white matter hyperintensities in the bilateral frontal and parietal periventricular and subcortical areas. They suggest chronic small vessel ischemic change. Spinal tap water removal may not be the recommended treatment for her symptoms.

I met with a head injury after a bike accident and suffered inter parenchymal bleeding as per ct scan doctors said I am alive just because blood did not clot inside head and it went out but m still facing issues with my memory after 2 months of the incident,in that accident my jaw was also dislocated but they operated it and fixed I don't know what is causing me memory problems
Male | 23
Memory trouble following a blow to the head might be due to the way it affects your brain. When the brain’s tissues become injured, this can impact its ability to store and recall information. Sometimes these kinds of injuries need time to heal so make sure you’re getting plenty of rest and eating well while also seeing your neurologist for regular check-ups. They might even recommend certain therapies designed specifically for improving memory.

I am a 37 years old female. From the past few days I am feeling an ache inside the left side of my head at regular intervals. I also feel my head spinning and heavy quite often. Sometimes I feel cold and sometimes I sweat. I also feel my body weak quite often and sometimes feel I may fall. Sometimes I feel a pull on the backside of my head and that part paining, though it isn't a severe or constant pain. I am not able to tell this to my parents as they recently faced a huge tragedy and I don't get the courage to speak to them and give them more pain. Since the time I get up I look forward to going to sleep again as that's the only time I feel better and tension free. Is this a passing phase or serious health issue? Are these signs of brain inflammation/tumor? Will be grateful to you if you advice me what my next step should be.
Female | 37
As your symptoms indicate, you may be suffering from a migraine or tension headache. But one should not exclude the possibility of serious conditions. I suggest consulting a neurologist for further detailed diagnosis. While you wait, work on reducing your stress and have a good sleep at night. Recall that your health should be considered first and you might need medical attention if the situation requires so.
