You might have some­thing called occipital neuralgia. The ne­rves going from your spine to scalp get irritate­d or inflamed. This causes the head and ne­ck discomfort. Other effects could be­ light sensitivity and a sore scalp. To ease­ the pain, take over-the­-counter medicine. Apply warmth or cold to the­ area. Practice dee­p breathing and relaxing. But if it persists, se­e a neurologist for evaluation and treatment.

It's very important to have this e­valuated by a neurologist to find out the exact reason behind these symptoms and treat them accordingly.

Spinal Implants for Cord Injury: A Comprehensive Guide

Spinal implants is used for spinal cord injury

Answered on 18th May '24

Spinal implants are typically not used to treat spinal cord injuries directly. Instead, they are more commonly used to stabilize the spine and provide support in cases of spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative spinal conditions. Treatment for spinal cord injuries often focuses on rehabilitation, oral medication, and supportive care to maximize function and quality of life. However, in some cases where there's spinal instability due to injury, spinal implants may be used as part of surgical intervention to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.

Answered on 17th May '24

Bell's Palsy can recur in some cases, although it's not common. While there's no guaranteed permanent cure, treatments can help manage symptoms and reduce the likelihood of recurrence. These may include medications like corticosteroids to reduce inflammation, physical therapy to maintain muscle tone and function, and surgery or other interventions in some cases. You need to work closely with a neurologist to create a proper treatment plan.

Why is my right pinky finger numb intermittently?

Good evening. I'm 21 years old, I have been noticing a numbness to my pinky finger of my right hand for quite some while now, it could literally last some hours, sometimes a day, it happens like once in a week. Whenever I have this numbness, I can move the other fingers, but the pinky finger sometimes affects my fourth finger,the finger beside it. Please what can I do?.

Answered on 16th May '24

You might have a problem with a nerve in your arm that's causing your pinky and sometimes your ring finger to feel numb. This can happen if you put a lot of pressure on your elbow or do activities like typing for a long time. Try not to lean on your elbow too much or do activities that worsen it. You can also try gentle stretches to relax your hand.  If the numbness continues then consult a neurologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Answered on 16th May '24

Damage reaches the brain due to being hit in the head, suffering a stroke, or infections inside the skull. Patients' problems can be related to memory loss, speech problems, and muscle issues. It's essential to seek immediate medical attention from a neurologist, especially if this is the third occurrence of brain damage.

Why Do I Experience Intense Pain, Fatigue, and Fever?

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.

When someone has a stroke, it can affect their ability to speak, eat, and move. This happens because parts of the brain that control these things get damaged. It’s important for him to be monitored closely by medical professionals to provide proper care, support, and therapy to help him regain functions. Patience, love, and proper medical care are key in his recovery journey.

Can Weight Loss Cure My Foot Socks Sensation?

Here is my story, Doctor. So, two years ago, I suddenly felt immense pain in my foot and got bedridden for almost three months. And then I rushed to a physician because at the time there was no neurologist in my city. The physician tested my vitamins and gave me some vitamins. It eventually got better and I was able to walk. I was overweight at that time and my physician told me that it's all because of weight. And then I lost almost 20 kilograms, but there was still feeling of socks. I don't feel any pain or anything, but I just feel like I'm wearing socks. Then after almost two years, I visited a neurologist with this and she tested my vitamins. She prescribed me vitamin D supplements since my vitamin D is at 12, but for one month. Nothing happened with this one month treatment. Then she did my NCV. She said my NCV reports are normal and has prescribed me some vitamins again. What do you think, how much time it would take to get completely cured?

Based on what you have told me, the peripheral disorder mentioned by the speaker is on track with peripheral nerve disease. In most cases, the feeling of socks on your feet could be easily attributed to peripheral neuropathy. You are lucky that your neurologist has done so many tests and that your vitamins and nerves are under control. Please continue to take the vitamins as per the doctor's prescription and remain patient. You will need some time to see improvements in your nerves. Also, keeping a check on your weight and living a healthy life will speed up your recovery while doing well.

A stroke is a serious disorder occurring when the brain's blood supply is insufficient because of either a blockage or a rupture. There are several symptoms, some of the most known and widespread of which are muscle weakness on one side of the body, difficulty with speech, and appearing to be very confused. Rapid medical intervention is mandatory to prevent further progressive destruction. Doctors should administer medications or therapies to enhance the patient's healing process.

Is My Frequent Forgetfulness at 20 Years Old Dangerous?

HI I am worried about my forgetfullness, I am 20 years old and forgot a password yesterday that I have been doing at list 6 times a week for the past 2 years and today I was sure I brought my bag with me, but it ended up being at home, but I am convinced I took it with me. Is it dangerous that I am forgetting things?

Answered on 14th May '24

It's normal to misplace or forget things sometimes especially when life gets busy or when you are feeling overwhelmed by the things to do. Forgetting a password or misplacing your bag occasionally is usually nothing to worry about at your age. Get enough sleep, eat healthily, and manage stress to help boost memory. If you're unsure, consider keeping a task list ready or utilizing the reminders on your phone to keep you structured. But if you have worries, getting in touch with a healthcare provider is a great alternative to get yourself tested and put your mind at ease.

Is it safe to marry a woman with Focal Epilepsy?

Hello. I am a male about to marry a 23 y/o female who at the age of 19 was diagnosed with Focal Epilepsy Affecting Frontal Lobe. I am trying to see whether it is a good idea to marry and start a family with this girl. The problem is her head and eyes move to the right when she has an episode which is usually triggered by eye contact and nervousness. So her neurologist perscribed Lacosamide twice a day which she says has prevented her from having an episode in over a year, but I want to check with you if this is true/common? Also will her illness get worse later down the line especially when we start having kids? Will it spread to other parts of the brain and what will happen if that occurs? She says the side effects of the medicine is she gets drowsy and sleepy sometimes, how often does that last? Thank you.

While Lacosamide can effectively prevent epilepsy episodes, its side effects like drowsiness are common. It's advisable to consult with a neurologist regarding the long-term effects of epilepsy and its potential impact on family planning. Specialists like neurologists can provide personalized guidance based on individual health conditions.

Why do I feel liquid and muscle stretching in head?

I feel liquid in head when i move my head and i feel muscle streaching inside of my head when i move my head

Answered on 13th May '24

When there is liquid talking in your ear or you hear that whooshing sound when you move your head it might be due to the fluid in your inner ear. the canals of your inner ear might have shifted. This occurs because the balance mechanism in your ear has been tampered. A feeling like stretching could be due to the tension that has grown inside the neck muscles. Try using gentle neck exercises as well as relaxation exercises and when these sensations linger, seek medical assistance.
