Your body fights infections through swollen lymph nodes in your neck. Post nasal drip irritates your throat and mouth, causing numbness. Tingling in your head might stem from sensitive nerves. It's crucial to get evaluated and treated by a neurologist. They'll determine the underlying cause and provide proper care for your symptoms.

Keep them informed of all your symptoms; this will allow them to decide on the most suitable treatment for your general health care.

Heaviness in Head: Urgent Medical Assistance Needed
Doctor I am a male of 45 year from Africa i feel this heaviness (dizziness) in the head and fatigue whenever i walk a little distance or engage in strenous work. I did ECG and ECHO2D tests. The doctor said nothing was wrong with my heart . I check my BP regularly. I am not hypertensive. I engage in regular fitness exercise . Yet this heaviness in the head and tiredness doesn't want to stop. I need your urgent reply. Pat.
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

Answered on 2nd Aug '24
It’s good that you’ve ruled out heart issues and hypertension. However, the persistent heaviness in the head and fatigue could be related to other causes such as anemia, thyroid issues, or even stress and anxiety. I would recommend visiting an internal medicine specialist or a neurologist for a thorough evaluation to pinpoint the cause and get appropriate treatment.

Can We Cure Hemifacial Spasm Permanently?
I am suffering from hemifacial spasm. I want to cure it permanently. Pls help
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 2nd Aug '24
A hemifacial spasm causes one side of your face to twitch involuntarily. This happens when a nerve gets irritated in your cheek area. Although uncontrolled facial twitching is unpleasant, treatment options like Botox injections or surgery exist. These can help relax the affected nerve, stopping the spasms. Such treatments aim to provide relief, improving your quality of life. So do not lose hope, as permanent solutions are available.

Your cervical discs have bulged slightly, exerting pressure on the spinal cord area. However, it's not severe. This condition may result in neck, shoulder, or arm discomfort, numbness, or weakness. Aging and spinal strain typically cause such issues. To alleviate symptoms, you might need physical therapy, medication, or surgery in extreme cases.

Can I manage Chiari malformation syndrome at 60?
I am a 60 years old woman and I have Chiari malformation syndrom since 20 years
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 2nd Aug '24
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.
