Why do I feel pressure despite prescribed medications?

The pressure in your head and crackling sound may indicate a nerve issue in the neck. While the medication you're taking can help, if you're not feeling better, it's important to explore other treatment options. Don't worry about changes in your baclofen dose, but consult your neurologist before making any adjustments. You may also want to ask about other medications that could be more suitable for your condition. As for the X-ray, the doctor likely focused on the areas related to your main symptoms, which is why nothing else was mentioned.

Why Does My Headache Return After Taking a Pill?

This type of headache can develop for a number of reasons, such as stress, lack of sleep, displayed eye vision problems, or using it for work. For the accurate pinpointing of the cause of your headache, definitely seeing the doctor is a necessary procedure.

Can gene therapy cure muscular dystrophy effectively?

Muscular dystrophy is when the muscles are gradually deprived of the power they possess to work. Thus, even the most basic movements can become a challenge for sufferers. The reason for this is the malfunction of the genes. Gene therapy is a method that can help in the modification of these genes. It comes with the promise of restoring the mutated genes in muscular dystrophies and substituting them for healthy ones. This can be done through the improvement of the contractility of the muscles and hence, the whole body over a longer period.
