I am a 43 year old female and have headache for past almost 25 ye

While TMJ (temporomandibular joint) issues can cause facial pain, jaw stiffness, and sometimes radiating discomfort to the neck and head, numbness and tingling from head to toe on one side suggest involvement beyond just TMJ.

Since your brain CT and MRI are normal, the issue may lie in the nerves outside the brain, possibly from the cervical spine (neck area) or peripheral nerves. Sometimes, nerve compression, postural imbalances, or even functional neurological disorders can present like this.

You should consult a neurologist and also, a maxillofacial specialist or physiotherapist familiar with TMJ can help manage jaw-related symptoms.

It sounds like you're experiencing a variety of sensations, including numbness, burning, and tightness in your left leg. These symptoms could indicate issues related to nerve function or circulation. It’s essential to consult a neurologist for a thorough evaluation. They can perform tests to determine the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatments. In the meantime, try to avoid excessive pressure on your nerves, engage in gentle stretching, and monitor your activities.

I can feel air moving thru the top of my head when I breath. Is that bad / dangerous?

Female | 25

Air can sometimes pass through the top of your head when you breathe. It may be due to a tiny hole in your skull or close to your sinuses. Or, you may have a blocked nose passage. See a doctor to know for sure. They can tell you the right reason and give treatment if needed.

Male | 31

Struggling with stress and body numbness at night, especially after using screens like phones or laptops? Digital eye strain could be the cause, leading to headaches, eye discomfort, and trouble focusing. To ease the symptoms, take regular screen breaks, dim the room lights, and try relaxation techniques. If you're also dealing with premature gray hair or depression, stress may be playing a role. Improving your diet, staying active, and getting enough sleep can help boost your overall health. If these symptoms persist, see a neurologist.

I want to ask about headache problem

Female | 23

Headaches can arise from various factors including tension, dehydration, or lack of sleep. Common signs include dull or sharp pain, sensitivity to light, or nausea. To alleviate discomfort, ensure you're well-hydrated, maintain a regular sleep schedule, and practice relaxation techniques. Over-the-counter pain relievers may also help. However, if headaches are frequent, severe, or accompanied by other symptoms like vision changes or confusion, it’s important to seek medical advice from neurologist.

Kindly suggest helpful which and what treatment is suitable and advisable.

Female | 54

It seems you're dealing with health issues like myositis and myasthenia gravis, which weaken muscles affecting your legs and voice. Since previous treatments haven’t helped, your doctor suggests rituximab to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms. Monitoring is important due to high CD19 levels. Be sure to discuss any concerns or side effects with your neurologist.

Sir I have had two foot foot drop for the last few years, let me know the solution

Male | 42

The best solution for foot drop is usually an AFO (ankle-foot orthosis) brace. This brace helps to keep the ankle in the correct position and supports the foot, allowing you to lift it more easily. Your doctor may also recommend physical therapy or other treatments, such as electrical stimulation or surgery, to help strengthen and improve the function of the muscles in your foot and ankle.

Am getting sudden pain on back of my head which lasts for hardly 10 sec and this happens the whole day with an interval of half an hour though the heaviness of my head is constant but the pain which last for short term is very severe and feels like someone is stabbing my head Am experiencing it from past 2 days

Female | 18

Tension headaches bring acute head pain, often at the back. It's stabbing, short-lived. Stress, poor posture, or eye strain may trigger it. Drink enough water. Take breaks from screens to rest eyes. Try relaxation methods. If the symptoms persist, see a neurologist.

I'm Amit Das 29 years old. I was watching the mobile for a long time, my mind started moving towards me, when I wake up from sleep , my whole body started moving towards me, when I started moving, my mind started moving somewhere, when I started sleeping, then again my body started moving along with my mind. Yes, all this is happening since last 3 days, there is a lot of pain before sleeping, checked that BP is low. Can this be right?

Male | 19

Prolonged screen time can cause tiredness and it might be the reason for these feelings. It is necessary to rest a little from the mobile phone and make sure you are drinking enough water and eating properly to help your blood pressure. However, given that this has continued for a few days, I strongly advise you to visit a healthcare professional. They can suggest a personalized approach and check whether there are any hidden issues. Take care of yourself and request substantial medical advice.

Hellp! I am someone with MS. I have very low vitamin D levels and have had that flr a while. I an currently experiencing pain in my left leg. In both knee and thigh. I have pain and can not stand on it as usual. It is the second time in less than 2 weeks (my knee, first time)

Female | 25

Lack of vitamin D levels in the case of multiple sclerosis patients may be responsible for muscle pain on some occasions. You should be getting enough vitamin D from sunlight or a supplement of vitamin D. Besides that, you can try to make the tension loosen or apply a warm compress to stop the pain. If the pain continues, go to a doctor to get professional advice.

I have vertigo problem .I done some m r i lot's of treatment but no results also I done physiotherapy but no results .with vertigo i hav ear ringing problem.i done hrct scan but it's normal.

Male | 28

When you have vertigo, you may feel like everything is spinning around you; however, this can be very frustrating if accompanied by tinnitus. These two symptoms have been known to persist even after an MRI scan or physical therapy has been done. It’s a good thing that your HRCT scan was normal. In this situation, I would advise you to see an ENT specialist so they can find out more about what might be causing them internally and from outside sources like infections, etc.
