The first step you should take is to consult a neurologist, who is a specialist in stroke treatment to properly assess your mother's condition and thereby streamline the treatment process for her.

I am 13 year old female and I have a headache and nausea. It started in the evening I cried after that I felt dizzy. I slept and when I woke up I was dizzy and nauseous. Do you know why it is like that?
Female | 13
Feeling headaches and nausea could be from several reasons. You might get this when you’re very upset or stressed because you’ve been crying a lot. Being lightheaded might also make someone feel like throwing up. Perhaps you twisted oddly in sleep or didn’t have enough to drink yesterday. Try lying down in a quiet room for some time; have a glassful of water and eat something small if possible.

My father is having blood clot in his brain. Which was recently found . He took medication for the same through drips for 5 days . Its been 20 days or more now he says that he feel numbness in hand and feel headache similar to the ache during the cold. And also he feel dizzy sometimes . Is this a normal symptoms of the brain blood clot or an serious issue?
Male | 54
\When a blood clot forms in the brain, numbness in the hand, headache, and dizziness could be worrying. The brain may be deprived of blood supply or there could be pressure on it due to these signs. Make sure he sees a neurologist again because these new symptoms might require more treatment or assessment.

I am v v baburao from kakinada,aged 69 years . My legs are randomly jerk at night. Whenever drifting off to sleep but suddenly wake with a jolt and jerk of the body. It is since one week. I am having by and use medicine and also having gastric problem. I am using medicines for them prescribed by doctor. I feel slight numbness in left leg from knee to palm and some times pain in calf muscle.

Hello Mr. Baburao.You would need evaluation for the jerks that u get in your legs. It could be a spine-related problem. You would probably need a spine MRI.

im 19 and i sometimes feel dizzy when i stand up. this sometimes comes with shaking of my legs, arms and blurrines, almost dark. whats my issue?
Female | 19
You might have orthostatic hypotension, which causes dizziness and tremors when you stand up due to a sudden drop in blood pressure. It can also cause brief vision problems. To help, drink plenty of water and avoid standing for too long. If this happens often or worsens, consult a neurologist to ensure everything is okay.

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 | 57
Parkinson's disease causes shaking, stiffness, movement issues. Your tremors may signify this condition. When brain cells malfunction, Parkinson's occurs. No cure exists yet, but treatments like medicine, therapy, sometimes surgery can help manage symptoms. Working closely with healthcare providers is key.

Male | 28
The ailments you mentioned, such as pounding pain, sleepiness, and fatigue are normal for a concussion. Drink no alcohol and take it easy, but don't sleep now. See if you can manage to stay awake for a few hours and check your symptoms. Go to the doctor in case the symptoms become more serious.

Actually my father had a mini stroke last week. After that we visited doctor they did ct scan and ecg tests. Everything was normal but the ct scan report said that in the left side of brain its little bit injured due to high blood pressure. Now, from 5-6 days he is unable to do any work with his right hand, rest everything is ok. And also he forgot his atm pin, where he kept documents and all.
Male | 47
It sounds like he might have experienced a small stroke (mini-stroke or TIA). It's good that the CT scan and ECG were normal, but the injury on the left side of the brain could be causing the weakness in his right hand and memory issues. I would advise you to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and management.

It sounds like you might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or stress. It's important to consult a neurologist to rule out any serious conditions and to get proper treatment. Please visit a neurologist as soon as possible for a detailed evaluation and appropriate advice.

If I don’t say something immediately I will forget it after
Male | 13
If you often forget things quickly, it could be due to something called short-term memory loss. Symptoms include difficulty remembering recent events or information. This can happen due to stress, lack of sleep, or not paying attention. Try to practice good sleep habits, reduce stress, and pay attention when you learn new things. Writing things down can also help you remember better.

I always had sleep paralysis during sleep and I can't sleep well
Female | 18
Sleep paralysis is a condition where you wake up but can't move or speak for a short time. It's quite common and usually not harmful. It can happen due to sleep deprivation, an irregular sleep schedule, or stress and anxiety. To prevent it, try to stick to a regular sleep schedule, relax before bed, and manage stress. If it becomes more frequent or concerning, you can consult a sleep specialist for help.

i m 26 yrs old i have been having mild headache for the 3 yrs but for the past one week its been severe headache i have had some drugs called panadol but hasnt gone away what should i do
Female | 26
Headaches bothering you a while now, huh? That's hard. When they worsen suddenly, we must learn why. Severe ones can come from stress, tired eyes, not enough water, missed sleep, or graver issues too. Since Panadol didn't work, it's wise to see a neurologist for proper checks.

Hi! is epilepsy is cureable in the age of 20-25years old
Male | 22
Epilepsy causes seizures. They can be strong shakes or short blank spells. The reason could be genes or brain injuries. Epilepsy isn't cured, but medicine often helps. A neurologist helps find the right treatment. Seizures happen differently for each person. So working closely with a doctor is important.

Can epilepsy go away in time and a person with it no longer have that disease?
Female | 42
Epilepsy is when a person has recurrent seizures. Sometimes this goes away on its own, especially in kids. Symptoms can range from convulsions or strange feelings to staring spells. Causes may be genetic or related to head injuries. Treatment usually includes medication but may involve surgery as well. Be sure to discuss ways of dealing with it with a neurologist.

Hi Doctor. I have a back pain.i had a MRI Scanning of LS Spine. Please analyse my report.
Female | 23
According to your LS spine MRI, you can discern that you most probably have a herniated disc. You should make an appointment with a spinal-disorder specialist to get more thorough advice and treatment.

I have a pain on head from 4-5 days plus there is a pain in chest also
Female | 24
You've been dealing with head and chest pain. Headaches occur from stress, not drinking enough, or lack of sleep. Chest pain involves the heart or lungs. Drink water, get rest, breathe deeply. If pain persists, see a neurologist to pinpoint the issue and get proper treatment.

I havent slept for 37 hours am i in danger?
Male | 21
It sounds like you're struggling with sleep. Short-term sleep deprivation can cause fatigue, dizziness, difficulty focusing, mood swings, and forgetfulness. It's important to address this issue promptly, as an ongoing lack of sleep can seriously affect your health and cognitive abilities. Try techniques like deep breathing, calming music, or creating a comfortable sleep environment to help you relax. If sleep problems persist or you're worried about your sleep patterns, consider seeking advice from a doctor or a sleep specialist.

Tooth ache Head ache at soft spot in head Difficulty talking Blurry vision on right eye expecially if I close and open it Fatigue Can't sit upright Can't stand upright Difficulty remembering things Facial pain Pressure on nose bridge Numb toe finger My neck feels like there's someone touching it taken pain relief but it doesn't do much
Female | 20
You have got a mix of symptoms that could be related to each other. Toothache, headache at the soft spot in your head, difficulty in talking, blurry vision, fatigue, and memory problems are the symptoms of neurologic problems or even vascular problems in the brain. The pressure on your nose bridge and the soreness of the face could be caused by sinus problems. Numbness in your toe finger is possibly caused by nerve compression issues. The neck pains and soreness during sitting or standing straight may be due to the spinal cord. It is important to see a neurologist promptly for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

Have been having constant headaches for weeks now. Especially when I wake up in the morning. The headache is one the two sides of my head, most time one sided, most time all around my head or forehead. The headache gets worse when I sleep and wake up and in the evening before bed. I feel my head pounding.
Female | 27
Experiencing constant headaches for weeks, particularly upon waking up, with pain on one or both sides of the head, forehead, and sometimes all around the head, could be due to tension headaches, migraines, cluster headaches, sinusitis, sleep related issues, neck problems, or dehydration. Since it is severe please consult a neurologist or headache specialist in your locality.
