Why Clear Mind with Water in Nose?

Why does my mind feel clear and I got tap water up my nose is my mind feeling clear a symptom of the brain eating amoeba?

1 Answer

Answered on 25th July '24

Getting tap wate­r in your nose won't give you brain-eating amoe­ba. When water ente­rs through nostrils, it brings sensation of mental clarity due to te­mperature differe­nce. However, that amoe­ba is very uncommon, causing severe­ signs like intense he­adaches, fever, and disorie­ntation. Avoid letting water ente­r the nose, especially in warm fre­shwater regions. But fee­ling refreshed afte­r accidental nasal water entry doe­sn't indicate the presence­ of that frightening amoeba.

I have a daughter whose development has been a bit late since she was little. She could only lie face down after she was 1 year old and then she could walk around 3 or 4 years old. Her development is slow but she is currently in grade 11 at school, but her mental ability is very weak. Her IQ is below 100. Her right hand, right leg and arm are stiff. The sole of the right foot tilts inward so it is difficult to walk or not like a normal person. What I hope from this treatment is that she right side can function normally. Because now you need help to clean after menstruation or after defecating, considering that the only thing that can be used normally is only the left hand, and even then it is not very active.

Your daughter's symptoms are typical of cerebral palsy which causes a lack of muscle coordination and also results in mobility problems. Those symptoms you named are the cause of an extra motor diagnostic test to be done, like hip reflexes to be tested, and a tossed foot drop. The most optimal way is physiotherapy to do work on muscle tone or strength and loosen tightness, to let your child move properly. In the case of consistent therapy, she will grow more independent and be able to use her muscles more easily so she can join you in activities.

If a 7 year old kid has a head injury what tests are done to diagnose his injury?

Female | 65

When a 7 year old experiences a head injury, several tests may be conducted to diagnose the injury..but again it depends on how severe the injury is. Physical examination may be adviced to assess symptoms and neurological function, imaging tests like CT scans or MRIs to identify bleeding or abnormalities in the brain, X-rays to check for skull fractures, and blood tests to evaluate various factors

The medicines you me­ntioned are used ofte­n after bypass surgery. Your low blood pressure­ and a sitting job could be causing your headaches. Stay hydrate­d. Drink plenty of water. Take bre­aks from sitting. Tell your doctor about what's happening. Your doctor can help manage things be­tter if you keep the­m updated.

Hi there, I am a 19 year old female. I am born in London, UK. I am currently away on holiday in Saudi Arabia. It’s currently around 40 degrees. I was walking whilst holding my bags & I suddenly became unable to see for a second & felt sick and dizzy. I felt like my heart was beating really fast and I could not breathe properly. I sat down and tried to cool down & drank cold water. After resting, I got up in the attempt to continue walking however, I felt really faint and my heart was beating even faster again. I felt my eyes rolling, I didn’t entirely faint and black out but it felt as if I were going to. I sat down and got escorted by a golf cart. However, I am unsure if I am okay or what it is I should do. I want to know what happened. I do still feel lightheaded and sick. But I am not sweating or red anymore.

Female | 19

You may have gone through heat exhaustion. This is when your body's internal thermometer becomes too hot and fails to function properly. The symptoms arising from such illness include, but are not limited to, faintness, dizziness, experiencing a fast heart rate as well as the feeling of nausea. The solution is to move to a cool area, drink water, and rest. Avoid the scorching sun and keep your body as cool as possible.

I am 21 year old female and I have been feeling my legs and hands go numb quite often in a day. I have also started doing yoga recently if this concerns and 2-3 months back I got my blood tests done and found out vitamin B12 level to be low. Also this whole covidshield causing blood clots scare me.

Female | 21

Hey, it looks like your legs and hands are getting numb, which could mean your vitamin B12 levels are low. This happens when there isn’t enough B12 to keep your nerves functioning properly. Yoga is great but won’t do it all by itself. Make sure to eat foods like meat, fish and dairy that have lots of B12 in them. Talk to a doctor about checking out your levels of B12 if you haven’t already.

Please help me I'm 38 years old I have pain all over my body I feel sick all the time I'm tried all the time and I have nights sweats for the last week

Male | 38

It seems like you may have some symptoms which could mean many things. Pain everywhere, feeling bad a lot, always being worn out, and sweating at night are all signs of different illnesses. A virus infection might be one cause but so could an immune system disorder or even just stress alone. You need to see a doctor so that they can find out what is going on with you exactly--and then give feedback that is helpful for treating whatever this turns out to be.

Experiencing excessive daytime sleepiness (hypersomnia) can be concerning. Consult a neurologist or sleep specialist for a proper evaluation. They will identify the underlying cause through tests and medical history, and recommend suitable treatment options to improve your condition.

Female | 7

Your daughter's MRI re­vealed HIE, meaning he­r brain lacked oxygen during birth. This condition, hypoxic-ischemic e­ncephalopathy, can lead to seizure­s, feeding difficulties, and de­velopmental delays. The­rapies and medications may help he­r brain recover. Regular che­ckups will monitor her progress closely. Though conce­rning, staying positive and following medical advice is crucial for he­r development.
