While there's no cure for this treatment but it can be managed based on symptoms, and thus treatments may vary based on the needs of patient.
This would require a multi-disciplinary team, but neurologist will be the main person, so refer our page so as to find them - Neurologists in India.

BUT SIR I HAVE NO OTHER SYMPTOMS OTHER THAN EXCESSIVE YAWNING AND SLEEPY FEEL

Male | 18

Excessive yawning and feeling sleepy even when there are no other symptoms can sometimes be due to lack of proper quality sleep. It is also linked to the feeling of being slightly down or the deficit of air. Try going to bed earlier and have a good sleep routine. Get outside for a breathe of fresh air each day to be active a little more.

I have some memory issue I forget things very easily Tingling sensation in hand and feet Headache Weakness

Female | 17

The possibility that a person may have memory problems, tingling in the hands and feet, headaches, or muscle weakness suggests that there may be a shortage of specific vitamins in his/her body like vitamin B12. Taking vitamin B12 could assist in this deficit and could be found in meat and dairy products.

Talking alopathyic medicine for bp & stroke. In this case can take ayurvedic medicines for insomnia

Male | 64

Insomnia makes it hard to fall or stay asle­ep. Stress, medicine­s, and health issues can cause it. Be­ careful taking ayurvedic insomnia meds with allopathic blood pre­ssure or stroke drugs. Always talk to your doctor before­ trying new medicines. This pre­vents interactions and side e­ffects. Communicate cle­arly with your healthcare provider.

It's the middle of the night and I keep stretching my legs my arms and everything continuously and it's driving me crazy and I don't seem to fall asleep what's wrong with me??

Female | 15

You might be feeling the restless legs syndrome. It is a kind of disorder that can lead to you wanting to move your legs (or even hands) all the time, especially during the night. It can greatly affect the process of falling asleep. Restless legs syndrome is usually due to low iron, numerous medications, or other health conditions. Reaching the reason beneath it and then applying some life changes can help. Visit a health specialist for a personalized answer.

I can feel air moving thru the top of my head when I breath. Is that bad / dangerous?

Female | 25

Air can sometime­s pass through the top of your head when you bre­athe. It may be due to a tiny hole­ in your skull or close to your sinuses. Or, you may have a blocke­d nose passage. See­ a doctor to know for sure. They can tell you the­ right reason and give treatme­nt if needed.

Here is my story, Doctor. So, two years ago, I suddenly felt immense pain in my foot and got bedridden for almost three months. And then I rushed to a physician because at the time there was no neurologist in my city. The physician tested my vitamins and gave me some vitamins. It eventually got better and I was able to walk. I was overweight at that time and my physician told me that it's all because of weight. And then I lost almost 20 kilograms, but there was still feeling of socks. I don't feel any pain or anything, but I just feel like I'm wearing socks. Then after almost two years, I visited a neurologist with this and she tested my vitamins. She prescribed me vitamin D supplements since my vitamin D is at 12, but for one month. Nothing happened with this one month treatment. Then she did my NCV. She said my NCV reports are normal and has prescribed me some vitamins again. What do you think, how much time it would take to get completely cured?

Female | 21

Based on what you have told me, the peripheral disorder mentioned by the speaker is on track with peripheral nerve disease. In most cases, the feeling of socks on your feet could be easily attributed to peripheral neuropathy. You are lucky that your neurologist has done so many tests and that your vitamins and nerves are under control. Please continue to take the vitamins as per the doctor's prescription and remain patient. You will need some time to see improvements in your nerves. Also, keeping a check on your weight and living a healthy life will speed up your recovery while doing well.

I have been diagnosed with IIH. Could I work in a hospital with equipment that use electromagnetic radiation in the future if I get a shunt placement ? Will it affect my shunt valve settings?

Female | 27

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) can cause headaches and vision problems due to increased pressure around the brain. One common treatment is shunt placement, a tube that drains excess fluid. Working with radiation equipment in a hospital is unlikely to affect your shunt, as shunt valves are not impacted by electromagnetic radiation.

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.

Sir I have had two foot foot drop for the last few years, let me know the solution

Male | 42

The best solution for foot drop is usually an AFO (ankle-foot orthosis) brace. This brace helps to keep the ankle in the correct position and supports the foot, allowing you to lift it more easily. Your doctor may also recommend physical therapy or other treatments, such as electrical stimulation or surgery, to help strengthen and improve the function of the muscles in your foot and ankle.
