Answered on 10th Dec '24
Even though there are various reasons such as nerve compression, poor blood circulation, or even tension in muscles that can cause numbness in the toe of your right leg. As distressful as it may appear, for most cases, the problem will be resolved by simple steps such as changing posture, physical movement on regualr basics or doing gentle meditative exercises. Make sure to avoid any activities that worsen the sensation. Even though this numbness has not gone away in the past five days, it is better to be checked by a neurologist to find the exact cause.

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.

You may have narcolepsy. This condition is caused by a lack of brain chemical that controls sleep. Medications can help manage symptoms and improve life quality. But it's crucial to see a sleep specialist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Don't ignore symptoms - get checked out by a neurologist.

These could be from hormone changes, being too stressed, or even brain issues. It is very important to see a neurologist to find out why and get the right help. For now, rest lots, drink many fluids, and eat small healthy meals.

Male | 18
These tingling sensations may be caused by stress or anxiety, which are sometimes strange sensations that the body experiences, especially during relaxation or sleep. Try relaxation methods like deep breathing or gentle stretching before going to sleep. If the tingling lingers or worsens, see a neurologist to rule out the other possible causes and get the right treatment.

Is 20ml mephentermine inject safe for brain and it's right to brain ven damage or not
Male | 23
Taking an injection of mephentermine 20 ml can lead to brain complications and is dangerous. It can harm the brain veins. The signs of brain vein damage are extreme headaches, foggy vision, and mental confusion. If you think you have such damages, it's imperative to take medical assistance without delay. The treatment usually consists of medications and sometimes surgery to fix the damaged veins. It's better to stay away from such threats and consult a neurologist for safer options.

Your problem seems to point that your sleep and your focus are getting affected by your case. It may be due to your sleep pattern or stress. You should just adopt some healthy habits such as following a consistent sleep schedule, exercise daily, and keep away from electronic devices before going to bed. In order to develop better concentration usage of small study sessions and break will be the answer. If this problem still exists, seeing a physician or a mental health professional might be a good option.

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

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.

Female | 19
It is normal to go through uneasiness following a stroke. It can cause trouble concentrating and brain fog. But, generally, these problems tend to be resolved as your brain heals. Rest, eat, and drink well. It is also essential to fulfill the potential recommendations of your neurologist.

Experiencing more severe post-seizure symptoms is concerning. It's advisable to consult with a neurologist or epilepsy specialist to evaluate your condition and determine if any adjustments to your medication regimen or treatment plan are necessary. Communicate changes in symptoms with your doctor.

I have had a headache for 4 days now and 2 out of the 4 days have been migraine like headaches
Female | 19
Migraines can be very hard. They often come with throbbing pain in your head. You may feel sick to your stomach. Light and sounds make it worse. Not enough sleep and stress can cause migraines. Some foods can start them too. Make sure you eat good stuff. Drink lots of water. Get lots of rest. If headaches keep happening, talk to a doctor.

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.

You might experience some side effects from your old head injury. Back-of-head aches and talking troubles could relate to it. The heartburn may differ yet matter too. Many causes bring headaches, like injuries in the head area. Speaking difficulty could link to brain functions. Heartburn could connect to stomach matters. The best step is to see a neurologist for a full evaluation and treatment planning.

I'm having headache since morning taken disprine and proper 8 hours sleep but having tha same please suggest
Male | 25
Headaches are varied and can be caused by the smallest things such as stress, dehydration, or looking at a display for a long time. Pain relief is sometimes simple and in this case, Disprin will help. Also, drink water, have a break every half hour of screen time, and learn to control bad thoughts by doing relaxation exercises such as deep breathing. If pain persists for a day, or if the symptoms worsen, consult a doctor to conduct a full examination and have them prescribe the best form of recovery.

You might be going through Peripheral Neuropathy, a disease. It is when nerves in the body are not functioning properly. The usual reasons are diabetes, deficiencies in vitamins, and some medicines. To get better, you should focus on the problems that are underneath, have a healthy lifestyle, and also talk to a neurologist so they can examine you and treat you.

Doctor, the patient has cerebral palsy dystonia. Is steam cell treatment better ordeep brain stimulation beneficial for him, Because deep brain stimulation is beneficial for Parkinson’s patients only, and its success rate is high because it is primary dystonia and he has secondary dystonia. Thank you very much.
Male | 28
In this case, deep brain stimulation may not be the best choice since it's typically used for Parkinson's disease. Stem cell therapy that replaces damaged cells instead could be one of the ways to do it. Cerebral palsy dystonia can cause muscle stiffness or uncontrollable movements. Always consult with a doctor to explore suitable options.

I have a headache coming from inside of my head and it starting from left side then it radiate to back side of the head.. sometimes this pain is little and sometimes it is more. Even when I'm breathing the pain is happening. Why it is happening?
Male | 28
You may be having tension-type headaches. These feel like a tight band around your head. Stress, bad posture, or eye strain often cause them. The pain may move or spread. Try relaxing techniques to ease the headaches. Improve your posture and take breaks from screens. See a neurologist if they worsen or last longer. They can check further and suggest remedies.
