It may sound like you have a condition known as sinusitis. Sinuses get inflamed when spaces around the nose are filled with too much mucus due to colds, flu, allergies, or other conditions. This can lead to pain in your head especially when you lean forward or cough/sneeze; it also causes swelling in the eyes, nausea, and vomiting. To feel better try using warm packs on your face and take pain relievers that can be bought over the counter. Keep yourself well hydrated and rest enough too. In case these signs don't go away, you should see a doctor who will check them out further and treat them accordingly.

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.

Male | 18
You are likely having some of the panic attack symptoms. In such moments, your body may tremble and be hot; you could also have a feeling of confusion. Panic attacks may be caused by factors such as stress, anxiety, or strong emotions. To help, try slow, deep breaths, calming thoughts, and talking to someone you trust about how you're feeling.

When someone one trying to get alpha gpc for focusing on study then what dosage you give for 19 age
Male | 19
If you're considering Alpha GPC to enhance your studies, proceed with caution. A safe daily dose for a 19-year-old is 300-600 mg, but it's best to start with a lower dose for a few days to see how your body responds. While Alpha GPC may improve cognitive function, remember to maintain a balanced diet, stay hydrated, and get enough sleep for overall health and focus.

Can epilepsy go away in time and a person with it no longer have that disease?
Female | 42
Epilepsy is when a person has recurrent seizures. Sometimes this goes away on its own, especially in kids. Symptoms can range from convulsions or strange feelings to staring spells. Causes may be genetic or related to head injuries. Treatment usually includes medication but may involve surgery as well. Be sure to discuss ways of dealing with it with a neurologist.

Brain Tummer by fall down
Male | 23
You seem to be so scared that you got a tumor in the brain when you fell. Symptoms of brain tumors include headaches, dizziness, vision problems, and difficulty regulating the balance. Brain tumor could lead to falling down if it damages your cooperation or balance. The origination of brain tumors is usually unclear, however, treatment may revolve around surgery, radiations, or chemotherapy. A correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment are recommended, and seeking a neurologist is crucial in this case.

Female | 18
This sounds like the symptoms of a condition called postural orthostatic syndrome (POTS). POTS can make you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint when you stand up. It can also cause your vision to blur when standing up, heat intolerance, and nausea upon standing up. Vyvanse could worsen these symptoms. Drinking lots of fluids and adding more salt to your diet might help. Talk to your doctor about this.

Male | 27
You seem to experience peculiar sensations in your head. The backstory of occipital neuralgia and antidepressants might shed light. The chilly feeling and tingling atop your head could stem from nerve sensitivity or medication side effects. Keeping your neurologist informed about these symptoms is crucial, so they can offer suitable guidance and potentially modify your treatment if needed.

from past 1 week i have been feeling really sleepy to the point where i am sleeping 10hours and after waking up still feeling the urge to sleep ...tired ,weak ,also feeling lightheadedness ...can u plz help me out with the diagnosis
Female | 24
Your symptoms of excessive sleepiness, tiredness, weakness, and lightheadedness could indicate anemia. Anemia occurs when your body lacks enough red blood cells to carry oxygen to your organs, making you feel tired and dizzy. This may be due to iron deficiency, blood loss, or a health issue affecting your red blood cells. I suggest visiting a doctor for a blood test to check your iron levels. Including iron-rich foods like spinach, beans, and lean meats in your diet can also help.

You might be dealing with stress, maybe too much strain or not enough rest. The human body reacts to stress in such a way that all these things can happen. To feel better, the recommended course of action is: to relax more, try to get some sleep, and practice breathing exercises or do some gentle exercises.

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

Hi what causes fatigue , chest pain , pressure in my head , weakness in my left arm and leg , irregular heartbeat , I have bad dental and a lump at the base of my skull , low blood pressure
Female | 30
From what you describe, carotid artery disease could be causing your issues. This condition blocks blood vessels in your neck. It can lead to tiredness, chest discomfort, head pressure, and left arm/leg weakness. The irregular heartbeat, poor dental health, and skull base lump may relate. Reduced blood flow from the blockage could cause low blood pressure. To properly address this, seeking medical evaluation and treatment is vital.
