Questions & Answers on "Neurology" (214)

Good day doctor Since childhood, I have always been pressing on my nerves and muscles throughout my body, and I can't control myself. It's like grinding teeth, but in my body, and it's voluntary. These are not spasms; I do them, but I can't stop them. When I try to stop myself, I feel like I'm going to explode. The issue was minor in childhood and significantly reduced during adolescence almost to the point of disappearing. However, over the past few years, the problem has worsened significantly. Currently, I'm squeezing my body's vertebrae, especially my neck, and I feel like it's twisting. I consulted a psychiatrist and neurologist who said there is no organic issue, just a bit of anxiety. I took medications for anxiety and stress, but there was no effect. Thank you very much for your time

The nature of your symptoms probably is involuntary muscle contractions or muscle spasms. It is necessary to have the condition assessed by a neurologist who specializes in movement disorders or a physiotherapist who will be able to look at your condition in person and guide you properly.

I have dizziness. CBC, Triglyceride, Cholesterol, LFT, FBS tests are normal. This gets escalated after eating. With it, my anger level goes higher. I have gastritis and probably IBS-C. I don't have stress, anxiety or depression. My ears are not blocked and my eyes are okay. I feel heaviness in my eyes when this dizziness happens to me. It happens to me once in a month and then disappear after a week or ten days.
