Will small head size at 31 weeks affect brain development?
31 weeks growth scan report shows small head size 27.5 hc will it affect my babys brain development ,how to improve hc in pregnancy
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 23rd May '24
A smaller head circumference (HC) can mean that the baby is not growing as fast as they should be. Genetics and poor food intake are some reasons why this may happen. Ensure you have a well-balanced diet throughout your pregnancy to increase HC; take plenty of nutrients too. In addition, your physician might suggest some supplements or keep a close eye on the infant’s development. Always keep in touch with your doctor so that both of you receive adequate care.

Headaches can arise in many ways, for example, stress, lack of sleep, or even looking at screens for too long can cause them. It's better to lie in a peaceful place, drink a lot of plain water, and abstain from excessive screen time. If the pain persists, you need to go to a doctor and get a thorough checkup done.

Why I am having a headache and nousea
Female | 19
When head throbs and the stomach churns, it often has simple causes. Perhaps not enough water passed your lips. Or maybe a meal you ate stirred unpleasant reactions. Anxieties also bring those unpleasant companions knocking. Drink deeply from the well, and eat gently. But if discomforts persist, visit a neurologist.

I am 18 and have recently been experiencing heavy memory loss (ex. unable to remember names, forgetting how to do tasks, driving unknown places). I have an appointment but I'm unsure whether I should go to urgent care for this instead or not.
Female | 18
Memory loss, particularly at a young age, is a matter of concern. Forgetfulness, having difficulties remembering names or tasks, and getting lost can be the signs of a serious issue. It might be due to stress, a lack of sleep, or a medical problem such as a brain injury or dementia. Getting a checked-up by a neurologist is essential. They can figure out the reason and offer the right treatment to help your memory improvement.

Facing high fever and continuous headache
Female | 30
Fevers and headaches are often caused by infections like the flu or a cold. When you're sick, your brain can ache, and your body might get hotter than usual because your immune system is fighting the illness. Make sure to get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, and take some paracetamol or acetaminophen to help reduce the fever. If the pain is severe or the symptoms persist, it's important to see a doctor for proper treatment.

Headaches can have a variety of reasons including stress, tension, dehydration, eye strain, or sinus issues. The symptoms you mentioned can sometimes be related with more serious conditions, like migraine, nerve damage, or blood circulation issues, and a healthcare professional can conduct a physical examination, review her medical history, and perform necessary diagnostic tests to help determine the cause of her symptoms.

Epilepsy can be challenging for children, with symptoms like shaking or blank stares. It could be due to genetic factors or underlying brain issues.

Actually my father had a mini stroke last week. After that we visited doctor they did ct scan and ecg tests. Everything was normal but the ct scan report said that in the left side of brain its little bit injured due to high blood pressure. Now, from 5-6 days he is unable to do any work with his right hand, rest everything is ok. And also he forgot his atm pin, where he kept documents and all.
Male | 47
It sounds like he might have experienced a small stroke (mini-stroke or TIA). It's good that the CT scan and ECG were normal, but the injury on the left side of the brain could be causing the weakness in his right hand and memory issues. I would advise you to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and management.

Recurrent balanitis operation, like many other surgeries, has often anesthesia administration as a side effect that leads patients to experience post-operation headaches. This may be due to drinking too little water, using medications, or other problems with the disease. You have to see a physician or a neurologist for that to be examined and treated.
