The person who lost vision, speech, and mobility is not positive news. Given the negative reports so far, it's clear that we have other plans in mind. Rare conditions also are a factor that needs to be considered. This included Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM) or any other rare unknown, and often under-reported neurological disorders that might be the cause of these symptoms. Discuss these issues with a neurologist for the best treatment.

I am a 60 years old woman and I have Chiari malformation syndrom since 20 years
Female | 60
Chiari malformation syndrome occurs when the lower region of the brain known as the cerebellum gets compressed through the skull hole that permits the spinal cord to pass. It can lead to symptoms such as headaches, neck pain, dizziness, or walking problems. Treatment can be routine medications for the symptoms and sometimes surgery to relieve the pressure on the brain. Discuss your symptoms with your neurologist.

Male | 30
You seem to suffer from chronic insomnia and tension headaches. Your heart can actively start to beat in your head, heart, or hands during the panic attacks. The lack of sleep that causes the symptoms gets even worse daily. Among them, which can be triggered by stress, insomnia, and bad habits in sleeping. Create a bedtime routine, restrict caffeine, and screen time before bed, and practice deep breathing percussions. Physical activity and counseling can also be amongst the manners to receive further benefits.

HI I am worried about my forgetfullness, I am 20 years old and forgot a password yesterday that I have been doing at list 6 times a week for the past 2 years and today I was sure I brought my bag with me, but it ended up being at home, but I am convinced I took it with me. Is it dangerous that I am forgetting things?
Female | 20
It's normal to misplace or forget things sometimes especially when life gets busy or when you are feeling overwhelmed by the things to do. Forgetting a password or misplacing your bag occasionally is usually nothing to worry about at your age. Get enough sleep, eat healthily, and manage stress to help boost memory. If you're unsure, consider keeping a task list ready or utilizing the reminders on your phone to keep you structured. But if you have worries, getting in touch with a healthcare provider is a great alternative to get yourself tested and put your mind at ease.

Male | 16
You have had a headache on one side of your head for about 3 days. That may be a migraine. Migraines are sharp pains in the head that happen on one side of the head after nausea or sensitivity to light. Saridon might alleviate the pain for a while, however, it is essential to find out about the causes of your migraines. Notice any symptoms you have and whatever triggers lead up to your headaches. Avoiding heiks like stress, lack of sleep, favorite foods, or loud noises may help you stop migraines. Should headaches continue or deteriorate, a doctor is the right person to consult.

I met with a head injury and suffered inter parenchymal bleeding and after being 2 months now m still suffering from memory loss not remembering the incident also which led me to this brain injury
Male | 23
Memory loss after intraparenchymal bleeding might occur because of harm to the brain. Failing to recall the accident that caused the injury and having problems remembering recent happenings or learning new things are among the most common symptoms. The best thing to do would be to get as much rest as you can and follow any advice given by your neurologist.

Mam, I dont know what I am going through, but I find it very difficult to remember the things which I learn previously (even though I revised multiple times) and my working memory is very much reduced , I cant solve complex maths and computer programs . During solving complex programs , I find it difficult to keep all things which I thought previously ( seconds ago) in my head to solve the problem. Even though I dedicate so much of time in studying , I could not match with my friends scores ( who score more than me by putting lesser effort than me ) and this makes more depressed and tired . Currently I have very bad lifestyle ( junk food, no exercise, no proper sleep) , but I have already tried following these steps and ended up in no results . I am a undergrad student , I need to resolve this to get placed . I need to know the exact reasons and disorder behind this and exact solutions to get back my old brain . This change happened to me before 5 years , currently I am 22 years old . During my school time , my brain was normal and properly functioning. I don’t know what exactly caused this change. Please help me in this , I am really hopeless here

Your concentration, memory, and cognitive functions are showing ominous symptoms of worry. Thus, it is likely that they are caused by stress, unhealthy lifestyles, sleep deprivation, and poor diet. Eating, sleeping, exercising, and managing stress should become a priority if you wish to enhance your brain function. You could also consider speaking with a psychiatrist or counselor for support. Implementing these interventions can enable you to control your brain operation as well as enhance your general well-being.

Female | 26
Having symptoms like muscle twitches, tingling in your hands and feet, leg weakness, ankle pain, and difficulty speaking could indicate a nerve disorder. Abnormal EMG and NCS test results suggest nerve problems, possibly due to conditions like peripheral neuropathy or nerve injury. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further tests and treatment, which may include specialized tests, medications, or physical therapy, depending on the cause.

Good evening. I'm 21 years old, I have been noticing a numbness to my pinky finger of my right hand for quite some while now, it could literally last some hours, sometimes a day, it happens like once in a week. Whenever I have this numbness, I can move the other fingers, but the pinky finger sometimes affects my fourth finger,the finger beside it. Please what can I do?.
Male | 21
You might have a problem with a nerve in your arm that's causing your pinky and sometimes your ring finger to feel numb. This can happen if you put a lot of pressure on your elbow or do activities like typing for a long time. Try not to lean on your elbow too much or do activities that worsen it. You can also try gentle stretches to relax your hand. If the numbness continues then consult a neurologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Frequent headache and weeknes and dizziness and ice craving
Female | 15
Fatigue, headaches, weakness, and dizzy spells together with enjoying taking ice could be signs of a disease known as iron deficiency anemia. The blood lacks iron in a sufficient amount, which can result in your feeling tired and dizzy. Upgrading your diet with more of the foods with a high iron content like spinach and beans can be effective, and your doctor may prescribe you iron tablets. It is a must for you to get checked by a neurologist for the exact diagnosis and the appropriate treatment.

Some time I feel some sort of unconscious... I also experiencing premature white hair which is happening more rapidly these days. I also face some kind of depression
Male | 31
Struggling with stress and body numbness at night, especially after using screens like phones or laptops? Digital eye strain could be the cause, leading to headaches, eye discomfort, and trouble focusing. To ease the symptoms, take regular screen breaks, dim the room lights, and try relaxation techniques. If you're also dealing with premature gray hair or depression, stress may be playing a role. Improving your diet, staying active, and getting enough sleep can help boost your overall health. If these symptoms persist, see a neurologist.

I couldn't sleep for 2 months as whever i sleep even for 10 mins i get a dream everytime. I am sleeping for minimum 3 hours a day and i am always tired even without work.
Female | 33
You can't get to sleep and walk around like a zombie during the day. If you have dreams every time you sleep, however, they may be short, and you are not getting REM sleep which is the deep sleep you need. As a result, you may feel you have more energy than you do. Thus, this might be a sleep disorder. If the problem persists, see a sleep specialist who can help with the evaluation and therapy.

what is difference between lacosamide tablets BP and lacosamide tablets Ph. Eur.
Male | 15
Lacosamide tablets BP and lacosamide tablets Ph. Eur. are essentially the same, with the only difference being how they are approved for use in different countries. The symptoms, causes, and treatment are identical for both. The therapy works by normalizing abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Stick to the medication prescribed by your neurologist and follow their advice carefully.

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.

Male | 46
Symptoms such as fever, headache, throwing up, diarrhea, and nervousness could point towards a stomach bug or food poisoning. These might also leave you feeling light-headed or generally unwell. Make sure to drink enough water, get plenty of rest, and stick with bland foods if this is what you’re going through. If your condition doesn’t improve or gets worse than before, please see a doctor so they can examine you properly and give appropriate treatment options.

Parkinson's disease causes shaking, stiffness, movement issues. Your tremors may signify this condition. When brain cells malfunction, Parkinson's occurs.

Am 22 girl This has been happening to me for a few days, not every day but sometimes I feel as if something is going on inside my head. It seems as if someone is bleeding flow But no symptoms like pain etc. Pain occurs at some time and that too is normal when I sleep too much. So what is this and is it normal
Female | 22
You get a feeling like bleeding but there are no pains. These symptoms can be caused by stress and anxiety. Sometimes, when we oversleep, we can also have these temporary discomforts. Managing stress is key to a healthy and balanced life. If the symptoms remain or get worse, you should see a neurologist for a check-up.
