Why do I have sciatic and radial nerve pain?

Hi, I have sciatic nerve pain but everytime I lift weights at the gym I have hand discomfort especially in the radial nerve area, the strange thing is it is only on one arm at a time like today it s on the right arm and tomorrow or a few hours after it moves to the left hand and to right hand back and forth after hours or days and the other hand feels like I had nothing at all. is it a slip disk or a radial tunnel syndrome ?

Shifting discomfort in your arms can arise from various causes, such as nerve irritation, muscle strain, or overuse, particularly with weightlifting. Sciatica may contribute to some nerve-related issues, but it's essential to differentiate between conditions like radial tunnel syndrome and other potential causes. I recommend you take a break from heavy lifting, focus on stretching, and strengthen your core muscles. Additionally, consulting a neurologist for an accurate diagnosis is important to develop a tailored treatment plan that addresses your specific situation effectively.

Does the pain come suddenly? Is it increased during the time of constipation or gas? If so, try drinking water more often, and eat fruits, vegetables, and salads. Besides, there might be a different reason, which is to meet the doctor in case.

The causes of these types of headaches are lack of adequate sleep, stress, dehydration, or even certain foods. To ease the pain, you may make sure you drink enough water, have proper sleep, do not allow stress to take over, and stay away from trigger foods. If the symptoms persist, it is good to visit a doctor

You are having stress and anxiety symptoms. Stress can result in poorer memory, anxiety, and distorted reality. Fatigue, perpetual gloom, and delusion are also possible indicators of stress. To feel better, engage yourself in some calming activities such as breathing deeply, speaking with someone you trust, or doing something you like, such as listening to music or taking a walk.

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.

Hello, Dr. Meri mummy ko neck ke right side nerves khicti h aur usme pain hota h uski bajha se kan mai bhi bharipan rehta h headache bhi hota h kabhi kabhi aur neck ki jo beauty bone hoti h vo bhi ful gyi h right side ki aur weight bhi loss hota ja rha h but kya dikjat h ye nhi pta chal rha h bahot se doctor ko dikhya

These symptoms together with unintentional loss of weight are worrisome. This could happen for many reasons including pulled muscles or problems with the cervical spine but it could also be something more serious so I would advise seeking medical attention soon so you can find out what is wrong before starting any treatment plan.

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.
