Random numbness in your body can feel quite worrying. Causes include circulation issues, compressed nerves, or anxiety. For prevention, eat nutritious foods, exercise regularly, and manage stress levels. However, if you are experiencing persistent numbness, visit a neurologist to identify the underlying reason and receive proper treatment.

I’ve had a headache for the past five days. Usually behind the eyes and sometimes a stabbing pain behind the head.
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

Answered on 23rd May '24
This is a common type called a tension headache. These types of headaches can cause pain behind your eyes. They can also make you feel a stabbing pain at the back of your head. Stress, bad posture, or lack of sleep often cause them. Try to relax and drink lots of water. Do some easy neck stretches too. If the headaches keep happening, talk to a doctor.

Can Tap Water Cause Brain Infection?
I used tap water to flush my nose out as I was congested before realising and then about 1 hour later used boiled water as I know it shouldn’t be tap water I’m In Northern Ireland what are chances of me getting brain infection I’m worried now No symptoms it was 2 days ago when will I know if I’m clear of infection
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 23rd May '24
Using tap water to flush your nose can be unsafe. Tap water may have bad germs. But, do not worry too much about it. Getting a brain infection from this is very rare. Since you used boiled water later, you are likely safe. If you have no signs after two days, you are likely okay. But, look out for bad headaches, fever, or stiff neck. These could mean infection.

How to treat Stammering problems
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 23rd May '24
Stammering, or stuttering, happens when a person has a hard time speaking smoothly. They might repeat some sounds or stretch out words. This can make it tough to talk with ease and feel sure of themselves. The cause is a mix of things like genes and how speech grows. The best way to help is speech therapy with a speech expert.

You could be experiencing pain in your left temple which spreads to the neck. One reason for this might be stress, poor posture, or even tension. Also, looking at screens for too long could cause similar discomfort. Please take regular screen breaks and maintain good sitting or standing posture. Additionally, gentle neck exercises can help. Consult a neurologist if the pain doesn't go away.

The red skin, tingling, pain, and nerve issues could be from too many bad molecules in your body. These bad molecules can hurt cells. To help stop the bad molecules, eat more fruits and veggies. Also, talk to your doctor about helper pills that may stop these issues from the bad molecules.
