Persistent Headache in 11-Year-Old

My daughter is 11 years, she is having a persistent headache for past one month, doctors have ruled out migraine, sinusitis and the MRI reports are also normal...as per her she doesn't have any stress...would seek your suggestion.

It's confusing when te­sts don't reveal obvious causes like­ migraines or sinus issues, and her MRI looke­d normal. Some possibilities are tension he­adaches, eye strain, or de­hydration. Encourage drinking lots of water, taking breaks from scre­ens, and getting enough sle­ep. If headaches pe­rsist, see her neurologist again to e­xplore other potential re­asons and solutions. Ongoing pain is hard, but keep searching for answe­rs.

Treatment for parkinson disease

Male | 44

Treatment for Parkinson's disease focuses on managing symptoms and improving quality of life. This typically involves medication to increase dopamine levels, physical therapy to improve mobility, occupational therapy to enhance daily living skills, and speech therapy for speech and swallowing difficulties. 
In advanced cases, deep brain stimulation may be considered. Exercise and stress management, are also important. The treatment approach is normally tailored to each individual's needs and may require regular adjustments and monitoring.

Hello sometimes I have shuttering(not very serious one,but I still have it) when I am talking(,especially when I am nervous or tired, my friend once told me that she had same problem during her childhood and she took medicament( I do not know what it was)and then it went away itself, i am curious if there is some medicament which help me take this shuttering away forever?

Female | 24

You experience­ stuttering, where spe­aking smoothly feels difficult. Maybe you fe­el nervous or tired. For some­ people, stuttering improve­s on its own, especially children. Howe­ver, therapies, and te­chniques exist to support fluent spe­ech. Speech the­rapy is one option. It's crucial to discuss with a speech the­rapist or doctor to find the appropriate path for you.

I am paraplegic due to spine Tumour is it can be recovered may I walk again?

Female | 28

Spine tumour leading to paraplegia is a disease that requires specialist care. It is best to work with a neurologist or spine specialist who will evaluate your situation and advise you of any possible treatment alternatives. Recovery, that is to walk again is dependent upon the tumour type and extent of spinal cord damage.

Last year, I got sick pretty bad. It started with migraine like headaches then intense body pain and severe back and neck pain. It was followed by fatigue, muscle stiffness and dizziness. No amount of painkillers relieved the pain. I couldn't even walk properly, someone had to hold me to get through hospitals. I got several tests done including MRI, EEG, B12, vitamin tests, eye tests, CBC and X ray for my back. There were a few vitamin deficiencies but they shouldn't have caused that much pain according to the doctors, MRI was pretty much normal. There were few abnormalities with my XRay in spine but again they were mild and not severe enough to cause me such intense pain. I took medication or migraine, some medication to make my nerves strong and I think some anxiety meds because they suspected GAD (all were prescribed by doctors). Most physicians suggested I go to a psychologist and the psychologist referred me back to physicians and I went back and forth. I got better after bed rest but I had to go back to college because I was missing on my studies. But I fell sick again, cramps like pain, consistent fever but on and off. I got tested for typhoid and other things but absolutely nothing. Then I went to a neuropsychiatrist who told me I had fibromyalgia, it aligned pretty well since I always had memory gaps as well and I've been concerned about it for a while. The medication he gave me worked, I for the first time in months started feeling better but as time passed by, it stopped working for me. I couldn't continue the medication due to expenses as well. So, I've been in pain ever since. When I've had a tiring day the pain is bad, when I am stressed it's worse. Every morning I wake up with pain and every night I go to bed in pain cuz it's worse in the mornings and night. If I rest too much, that's painful and if I don't that's painful too. Fever also shoots up every now and then. My body is in pain and exhausted, everything is difficult, walking up or down the stairs. Although some days it's better but other days it's difficult to even move, painkillers do absolutely nothing. I don't know what to do anymore

It could be fibromyalgia. This condition causes widespread pain in your body along with tenderness too – plus other things like being tired often or having trouble sleeping well. However, there are ways to handle this. For example, physical therapy might help ease some of the hurt; moderate activities such as walking or swimming could be beneficial because they won’t make the ache worse but can still keep muscles from getting too stiff; also relaxation methods (e.g., mindfulness meditation/deep breathing) may relieve stress which often worsens any existing discomfort. Besides that, proper rest is crucial, so try getting enough sleep each night; nutrition matters, so eat healthily; don’t push yourself too hard.

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.

This condition may result in neck, shoulder, or arm discomfort, numbne­ss, or weakness. Aging and spinal strain typically cause such issue­s. To alleviate symptoms, you might nee­d physical therapy, medication, or surgery in e­xtreme cases.

Hi there, I am a 19 year old female. I am born in London, UK. I am currently away on holiday in Saudi Arabia. It’s currently around 40 degrees. I was walking whilst holding my bags & I suddenly became unable to see for a second & felt sick and dizzy. I felt like my heart was beating really fast and I could not breathe properly. I sat down and tried to cool down & drank cold water. After resting, I got up in the attempt to continue walking however, I felt really faint and my heart was beating even faster again. I felt my eyes rolling, I didn’t entirely faint and black out but it felt as if I were going to. I sat down and got escorted by a golf cart. However, I am unsure if I am okay or what it is I should do. I want to know what happened. I do still feel lightheaded and sick. But I am not sweating or red anymore.

Female | 19

You may have gone through heat exhaustion. This is when your body's internal thermometer becomes too hot and fails to function properly. The symptoms arising from such illness include, but are not limited to, faintness, dizziness, experiencing a fast heart rate as well as the feeling of nausea. The solution is to move to a cool area, drink water, and rest. Avoid the scorching sun and keep your body as cool as possible.
