A stroke occurs when the flow of blood to the brain is hindered, causing weakness or trouble in moving a limb on one side of the body. Symptoms that may develop in this condition are fever, cough, and physical weakness. It is absolutely vital to get medical attention immediately if a stroke is suspected, as early intervention is crucial for recovery.

I am having lower back pain also it's make it difficult for me to walk as though maybe feel pressure.
Female | 66
Lower back pain can be caused by muscle strain, poor posture or a sprain. See a neurologist or a physical therapist for proper treatment. Avoid activities that aggravate pain, do gentle exercises or stretches.

My mother is almost 50 and since 4-5 months her half side of face suddenly pulls to one side like paralysed and after some time it gets normal but now it is occurring more often.
Female | 49
Being a condition named Bell's Palsy, your mother may go through it. It is a thing that happens because of the inflammation of the facial nerve. Medication and exercises that strengthen the muscles can be included in the treatment. You should visit a neurologist for a proper diagnosis and a plan of treatment.

I am a 23 year old female who has been having headaches since I've given birth but still no changes of it going away even If I use painkillers. I'm alsohaving chest pain and throat pain for two weeks now, what should I do?
Female | 23
It is quite normal to experience headaches due to hormonal changes and lack of sleep after childbirth. However, headache shooting coupled with chest and throat pain should not be ignored. It is essential to eliminate the fear of serious conditions, such as postpartum preeclampsia or infections. You should go for a medical evaluation as soon as possible to find out the cause and the right treatment.

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.

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.

Female | 19
This type of headache can cause pain not only in the head but also in the eyes and sometimes even in the chest. It is often accompanied by severe chills and body aches. Finding a quiet, dark place to rest can help. Drinking water and taking pain relievers like paracetamol can also provide relief.

Female | 19
Teeth grinding and hemifacial spasm can be due to a stress, anxiety, and neurological conditions. Medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications can help.
Nerve pain and difficulty swallowing could also be related to a neurological condition and may require further evaluation and treatment. Check thouroughly with a neurologist.

Hello Sir, I have Andrealine rush problem, especially during morning hours. I used to take beta blockers for some other problem. They were very helpful in controlling andrealine rush and keeping mind relax. As I am not longer taking beta blockers can you suggest any alternative for andrealine rush problem. Thank you!
Male | 29
Stress, anxiety, or hormonal changes can cause hyperactivity. If beta-blockers aren’t available, practices like yoga, meditation, deep breathing, or light exercise can help. These methods calm both the mind and body, reducing adrenaline and promoting relaxation. For better results consult a neurologist.

Hello. I am a male about to marry a 23 y/o female who at the age of 19 was diagnosed with Focal Epilepsy Affecting Frontal Lobe. I am trying to see whether it is a good idea to marry and start a family with this girl. The problem is her head and eyes move to the right when she has an episode which is usually triggered by eye contact and nervousness. So her neurologist perscribed Lacosamide twice a day which she says has prevented her from having an episode in over a year, but I want to check with you if this is true/common? Also will her illness get worse later down the line especially when we start having kids? Will it spread to other parts of the brain and what will happen if that occurs? She says the side effects of the medicine is she gets drowsy and sleepy sometimes, how often does that last? Thank you.
Female | 23
While Lacosamide can effectively prevent epilepsy episodes, its side effects like drowsiness are common. It's advisable to consult with a neurologist regarding the long-term effects of epilepsy and its potential impact on family planning. Specialists like neurologists can provide personalized guidance based on individual health conditions.

My partner has had a total of 3 seizures from overdoses. She's sober now & I really need to know the health implications, mainly in relation to brain function / impairment. The reason I am even more worried on top of the seizures, is that during each one her whole body would go limp, and her eyes would go blank. I don't mean like looking forward, I mean a legitimate dead look to it, a glaze, I was somewhat reminded of cataracts; seemed as if her actual soul was disconnected from her body & her lips would start going gray/blue; shallow breathing if any at all during this specific part. Put simply, it looks as if she was momentarily dead..
Female | 24
Her seizures from overdoses are a serious concern. If your partner is sober now, it is important for her to visit a neurologist to treat any long-term effects of her overdoses.

Male | 30
You're experiencing mild headaches and some strange feelings in your eyes. These could be dehydration symptoms, especially if you're drinking a lot of water while playing football. Dehydration can lead to headaches and eye strain. Ensure you're staying well-hydrated before, during, and after your game. If the symptoms continue, it's best to consult a neurologist for further evaluation.

I have pain in my head in one side only and pain side face swelling also and some times pain side eye vision is getting dull
Female | 38
It feels like you might have sinusitis. Sinusitis can make one side of your head hurt, swell up your face, or affect your sight. This occurs when the sinuses in your face become infected or inflamed. Try putting warm wet towels on your face, drinking lots of water, and using saline nasal sprays. If it still hurts, contact a healthcare provider for further treatment.

It seems you may have an infection, maybe a virus. When your body fights an infection, it can make you dizzy, hot, and tired. It is important to rest, drink lots of water and juice, and eat good food. If you feel worse or the same, you should see a neurologist.

You may have Meniere's disease. This condition makes you feel dizzy when you stand up. It also gives you long, bad headaches. Your ears may ring and hurt. Meniere's disease happens when fluid builds up in your inner ear. To treat it, doctors give medicine to reduce dizziness. You may also need to change your lifestyle to manage the condition. It is best to see a neurologist.

Female | 22
Feeling weak, nauseous, and getting headaches is normal after finishing malaria medication. Your body needs time to recover from the infection. Rest well. Drink lots of fluids. Eat healthy foods. It can take a while for your body to feel 100% again. If symptoms worsen or persist, consult your neurologist.

My brother is of 22 yrs old and doc says that he has brain tumour from childhood and has swelling too doc said to get him operated
Male | 22
If the brain tumor and swelling are diagnosed, you should follow the doctor’s advice, schedule surgery, and take herbal remedies that reduce brain swelling. Brain tumors may be malignant at one end of the spectrum and benign at the other, so you must seek the guidance of a neurologist who concentrates on this field.

Female | 23
Ongoing headaches are troubling. Your symptoms - right-side head, eye, and ear pain, focus and memory issues - suggest a potential problem. Getting a thorough check-up is crucial to pinpoint the exact cause. Don't disregard these warning signs, as they could signify an underlying serious condition. Seek prompt medical attention to avoid potential complications.

Male | 31
Nimesulide, at a dosage of 100mg, can be effective in alleviating headaches, generally caused by tension, sinus issues, or migraines. It works by reducing inflammation and relieving pain. However, it's important to consider the underlying reason for your discomfort. If headaches persist or worsen, seeking advice from a neurologist is wise. They can offer a comprehensive evaluation and alternative treatments if needed. Staying hydrated, managing stress, and ensuring adequate rest can also greatly help.

Male | 69
Your grandfather might be experiencing tongue problems acquired after a recent stroke. This is the term for dysphagia, which is difficulty in swallowing and speaking. Amazingly, he can now open his mouth and move his tongue slowly. For him to make a full recovery, speech therapy might be useful. Exercises and techniques help in the aspect of toning control of the tongue and swallowing, adding to the general treatment of dysphagia.
