What Causes a Headache Behind My Right Ear?

Hi there, I'm a 34 year old woman, and I've been experiencing a persistent headache behind my ear on the right side. It's been bothering me for the past week, and I'm starting to get concerned. The pain is sharp and seems to be concentrated in that area. I've tried over-the-counter pain relievers, but they don't provide much relief. I'm wondering if anyone else has dealt with a similar issue or if there are specific treatments or remedies I should consider for this headache behind my ear on the right side. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated.

When someone one trying to get alpha gpc for focusing on study then what dosage you give for 19 age

Male | 19

If you're considering Alpha GPC to enhance your studies, proceed with caution. A safe daily dose for a 19-year-old is 300-600 mg, but it's best to start with a lower dose for a few days to see how your body responds. While Alpha GPC may improve cognitive function, remember to maintain a balanced diet, stay hydrated, and get enough sleep for overall health and focus.

Over come fear To tremors in body shaking 10 Ago to continue

Male | 28

Fear can make our bodies react in strange ways, and trembling is a natural response. However, if the shaking continues, it's important to take care of yourself. Relaxation techniques, like taking deep breaths or talking to someone, can help.

Male | 63

Restless legs, slurred speech, confusion, different facial expressions, and constipation are sometimes the adverse effects of these medications. Moreover, these drugs can aggravate these symptoms in Parkinson's disease patients. It is crucial to have a discussion with his doctor about the necessary changes in the treatment plan that will make him feel better.

My mother aged 79 is on the following medication For morning - 1 tab levepsy 500, 1 tab calcuim and 1 tab metaprol 25 mg For night - 1 tab levepsy 500, 1 tab pregablin and 1 tab doxolin But by mistake today gave the night dose twice.... Will it effect her in any way....im worried

Female | 79

Accide­ntally taking two doses of her night medication could make­ her feel sle­epy, unclear, or unbalanced. It's wise­ to watch over her and ensure­ she's alright. Remind her to re­lax and drink plenty of fluids. Should any odd signs appear, don't delay in se­eking medical guidance. Most like­ly, she'll be okay but kee­p observing her condition for now.

if i stay awake the whole night but i sleep in the morning to balance the amount of sleep i require per day, is it harmful for my body?

Female | 17

Staying awake all night and sleeping during the day can disrupt your natural sleep-wake cycle, leading to potential health issues like fatigue, poor concentration, and weakened immunity. It is best to maintain a regular sleep schedule. Please consult a sleep specialist or a general physician to discuss your sleep patterns and get personalized advice.

I tend to jump to worse case scenario but I recently got diagnosed with vertigo caused by middle ear fluid and recently it’s came back since where I am the weather has gotten worse and my vision is kind of blurry sometimes and I have a hard time focusing on someone when they are talking how likely is it that this is being caused by a brain tumor and not the middle ear vertigo or am I just completely over thinking this

Female | 21

The blurry vision and the difficulty in focusing can be the vertigo that the ear fluid causes. It is common and it does not mean that you have a brain tumor. The ear fluid can mess up your balance and vision. Usually, it gets better on its own, but you might need medicine or special exercises if the problem keeps bothering you.

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

Female | 19

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.

My son 21 years old. Struggling with migrains. Have now started to feel pressure in forehead and dizzy. Have just now taken paracetamol 1 gram. Is it ok to take migraine medication he got from doctor last time now already? He is really scared to wake up and get it like last time. It was really bad with vomiting.

Male | 21

Weakness and sensitivity to light, as well as vomiting, may be the result of migraines. He is on paracetamol which is great, but he can also take the migraine medication his doctor prescribed if it is the case, even though it is soon after the paracetamol. It is important that the doctor’s guidance is adhered to and the medication is taken as instructed which will also help to prevent the next similar episode from happening.

When I was studying and learn I don't remember anything in exam and also distraction is high I can't focus on study so I heard about alpha gpc tablet that's why I want to ask what can I do , plz prescribed?

Male | 19

This might be a few things such as stress, sleeplessness, and bad food quality. Using alpha GPC tablets can be a way to boost your memory and concentration. But, first, you should deal with the main cause of your symptoms, such as not enough sleep, a balanced diet, and stress management. To improve your studying, you may want to make a study schedule, take breaks, and keep things organized.

In light of his situation, we are urgently seeking a hospital that can provide the comprehensive treatment he requires. It is critical that the facility we choose has the expertise and resources necessary to address his mobility issues and to improve his quality of life as much as possible. I am requesting your professional guidance to identify the best hospital that offers advanced care for Parkinson's patients at this stage of the disease. Your expertise in the field would be immensely helpful in ensuring that my father receives the best possible treatment. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations you may have or assistance in facilitating a referral, if possible. Please let me know if there are any specific procedures or information required to proceed. I am ready to provide any relevant medical records or documentation needed for evaluation.

When Parkinson's is this far along, it's a good idea to ge­t care at a special hospital. The hospital can help manage­ your dad's symptoms. He might benefit from physical the­rapy to stay as active as possible. The doctors may change­ his medications or consider surgery to he­lp him feel bette­r. Before going to the hospital, gather all your dad's medical records. Write­ down notes about how he's bee­n doing lately. This information will help the doctors unde­rstand his situation and make a good treatment plan just for him.

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.
