Feeling dizzy and weak for days isn't great. It might be due to skipping meals, stress, or low iron. The headache and forehead pain could be related too. Make sure to rest, eat iron-rich foods like greens or meat, and stay hydrated. If you don't feel better soon, visit a neurologist.

Im experiencing stiffness in my neck and upper back and have trouble swallowing food and water but i dont have any pain in my throat. There's unusual pressure in my throat which feels heavy and feels like my throat will break if turn my head .
Male | 20
You may have muscle spasms in your neck and upper back. This could make swallowing difficult, without throat pain. The throat pressure feeling could result from muscle tightness. Try gentle neck stretches. Apply heat to affected areas. Stay hydrated. Avoid sudden neck movements. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a neurologist. They can evaluate and guide you further.

I am having hormonal migraines due to my period starting soon. My go-to remedies are not having any effect lately. I have already taken Excedrin but with no improvement. I want to take naproxen-sumatriptan. Can I take this after taking Excedrin? How long should I wait?
Female | 29
If Excedrin hasn't provided relief for your hormonal migraines, it's best not to take naproxen sumatriptan without consulting a doctor. Combining medications without guidance can be harmful. Seek advice from a healthcare provider or pharmacist for a safe alternative or proper timing to take naproxen-sumatriptan.

So i was not mentally well due to some personal reasons, like i was crying and sleeping less so much(past 2-3 days). Then yesterday, when everything got normal, headache started on both sides and back of the head, from then i am unable to sleep, also some kind of tingling is there when I try to sleep. What it could be?
Female | 19
You’ve been through a tough time emotionally, and that can sometimes trigger physical symptoms like headaches and tingling. The headache and difficulty sleeping could be related to stress or tension. Visit a neurologist to discuss your symptoms and get proper guidance. They will be able to give you the right treatment based on your condition.

My family are on a trip to god's place and My brother got fits today like 3 times and he is behaving abnormal...what can we do?
Male | 30
Your brother may have had seizures, which are also called fits, and can make people behave strangely. There are many reasons why seizures occur – for instance, epilepsy or a high fever. If you see someone having a seizure, put them down gently on their side so that they don’t get hurt. Don’t try to hold his tongue or put anything in his mouth. Keep calm throughout this period then seek medical attention immediately after it is over. Finding out what caused him to convulse is important as well as getting him treated appropriately.

Dr but my memory issues due to brain bleeding will be improved know ?I will recover from memory loss knw?
Male | 23
The reason behind this may be that the bleeding has put pressure on your brain and harmed the tissues responsible for memory. Regaining lost memories varies from person to person depending on how much they have been damaged. The methods used in curing include giving the mind enough time to heal, physical therapy, and at times drugs to help with recollection. To get the best results it’s important that you do as the neurologist tells you.

Frequently numb hands or tingling feelings in the hands may indicate carpal tunnel syndrome. It happens when the median nerve, which travels from your forearm to your hand through a narrow passageway called the carpal tunnel, is squeezed or compressed. It is recommended that you consult a neurologist early enough for proper treatment.

I wanna try to get scanned for a brain tumour, this thought has gone as far back as grade 8 and I know this is out of proportion insane but I mean at first it started with the moments of feeling like I was getting dumber instead of smarter, not like beating myself up but just the actual feeling of losing information Then it was the foggy memories, messed up timeline, all of which I just kinda blamed on Parasomnia Then it was the derealization, the feeling of my grip on the world was leaving me and I’ve just tried so hard to fight it The change in my thoughts I mean I’ve become borderline obsessive, bi polar at my worst and even just thinking of life differently I mean in grade 9 I even just lost so much sense of fear, I started being way more reckless than before Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if it was what helped Mono attack my body harder I mean looking at symptoms yeah I only have the less severe ones but even loss of hearing and vision change has kinda set in I’ve heard stories of people who didn’t bother to check man and it just makes me afraid that I’m a ticking time bomb until the time someone sees me faint and not wake up Today in class I got, so, so lightheaded, and I just feel this impending doom sitting on my chest man
Male | 15
I would recommend you to book an appointment with a neurologist to detail your symptoms and worries regarding the potential brain tumor. He can perform extensive evaluation and diagnostic tests to determine the source of your symptoms. It is not advisable to wait until the time runs out and an early diagnosis will help you have a different outcome.

I have headache continuously. In my report of MRI it shows that I have preventricular cyst in my head Medicine is going on but I have headache What should I do
Female | 15
You may be suffering from a ventricular cyst, which is located near the brain. It is a fluid-filled sac near the brain. The reason that it causes headaches is often due to being under pressure. Adding to this, receiving regular medication, I recommend also not to forget being well-hydrated and staying stress-free. Were the pain to continue being severe or getting worse, you should report the headache to your neurologist for a new assessment and even alterations to the medications prescribed.

A diffuse axonal injury happens when the brain gets shaken in the skull. This leads to struggles with thinking, moving, and even waking up. There's no quick fix, but therapies like physical and occupational can assist your son. Omega-3s may benefit brain wellness too.
