You described symptoms like one-sided headaches, tingling legs, a bulging spinal disk, facial pain, vision problems, neck and shoulder discomfort, exhaustion, sleep disturbances, constipation, dizziness, and mild fever. Multiple potential causes beyond MS must be evaluated. These might relate to spinal issues, nerve conditions, or other bodily ailments. A thorough medical examination from a neurologist is vital for identifying the precise source of all these symptoms.

April 12,2023 I was showering when I finish I heard a sound in my head like pipes falling. Then I notice I couldn't hear in my left ear and I started hear a loud buzzing sound. This was a weekend and I couldn't see my doctor until Monday. He had me take a ct scan to rule out a stroke. I then was given a referral to see an ENT . I was told by the ENT that I was deaf in my left ear and a hearing aid wouldn't help me and come back in a month. I became so angry with this person because he didn't care about my health issue. I feel like I am on this journey alone. Through my research, I found there is no cure for sudden hearing loss. However it appears stem cells offer promise for a cure. When do you think there may be a cure or which country is ahead of the curve for a cure.
Male | 76
Sudden hearing loss, like what you've described, is known as sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Common symptoms include hearing a loud buzzing sound and feeling as though your ear is blocked. The exact cause isn't always clear, but it may be related to infections or blood circulation issues in the ear. While there is no known cure, researchers in countries like Japan are exploring stem cell treatments as a potential future option. It's important to prioritize your health and stay in regular contact with your doctor.

If a 7 year old kid has a head injury what tests are done to diagnose his injury?
Female | 65
When a 7 year old experiences a head injury, several tests may be conducted to diagnose the injury..but again it depends on how severe the injury is. Physical examination may be adviced to assess symptoms and neurological function, imaging tests like CT scans or MRIs to identify bleeding or abnormalities in the brain, X-rays to check for skull fractures, and blood tests to evaluate various factors

So i was not mentally well due to some personal reasons, like i was crying and sleeping less so much(past 2-3 days). Then yesterday, when everything got normal, headache started on both sides and back of the head, from then i am unable to sleep, also some kind of tingling is there when I try to sleep. What it could be?
Female | 19
You’ve been through a tough time emotionally, and that can sometimes trigger physical symptoms like headaches and tingling. The headache and difficulty sleeping could be related to stress or tension. Visit a neurologist to discuss your symptoms and get proper guidance. They will be able to give you the right treatment based on your condition.

i hit my head three months ago. it was bleeding and i went to the hospital. they did a CAT scan, said no bleeding on the brain, it was deep but no stitches and no sign of concussion. Now three months later i have tenderness and pain where i hit my head
Male | 73
After an impact to the head, some lingering discomfort and tenderness is quite typical. This could stem from a small patch of scar tissue forming at the injury site. Applying cold packs and taking pain medication can provide relief. However, if the pain persists or intensifies, consulting a neurologist would be advisable for further assessment.

A daytime sleep schedule not only helps a patient with fibromyalgia to get better but is also of paramount importance to them to avoid sleeping after midnight. Sleep can aggravate or diminish pain, tiredness, and even exacerbations. Adjusting the sleep schedule 3-4 hours before midnight might be a good way to augment sleep quality. Convince your mother to give sleep a priority so that she can not only reduce what she is experiencing but also have better overall health.

I've been suffering from chronic headaches for nearly 10 years, and I've been taking Vasograin daily to manage the pain. If I don't take the medicine, the headache starts again, and it happens every day.Why is it happening ?
Female | 38
You are possibly having a kind of headache referred to as a "medication overuse headache." The condition may arise if you are too dependent on medications such as Vasograin which brings about pain relief. The medicine is responsible for daily headaches that return if not taken. The method is to use Vasograin less frequently and under medical supervision. This way, the cycle of overuse will be interrupted, and the treatment of your headaches will be more efficient.

Female | 26
Having symptoms like muscle twitches, tingling in your hands and feet, leg weakness, ankle pain, and difficulty speaking could indicate a nerve disorder. Abnormal EMG and NCS test results suggest nerve problems, possibly due to conditions like peripheral neuropathy or nerve injury. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further tests and treatment, which may include specialized tests, medications, or physical therapy, depending on the cause.

You may be dealing with stress and thoracic outlet syndrome. This happens when nerves or blood vessels near your neck and shoulder get pinched, causing pain and foggy thinking. Stress and repetitive movements worsen it. Take breaks and do gentle stretches. Try relaxing activities too.

Pain in left-hand palm to elbow numbness and tingling
Male | 30
These signs could mean a pinched nerve — when a nerve is pressed or squeezed. You might get it from bad habits like typing all day or falling asleep in an odd position. To fix it, stop doing the same thing over and over and stretch out gently. Also, if these feelings don’t go away you should see a neurologist.

You could be experiencing the symptoms of the condition called "Prosopagnosia" which is difficulty in recognizing faces, colors, and places. It can also be memory, hearing, and eyesight affected. This condition arises from a problem in the brain. One way of managing it is to use voice cues and notice features of people to recognize them. It's good to contact a neurologist to get the proper instructions.

Male | 18
These tingling sensations may be caused by stress or anxiety, which are sometimes strange sensations that the body experiences, especially during relaxation or sleep. Try relaxation methods like deep breathing or gentle stretching before going to sleep. If the tingling lingers or worsens, see a neurologist to rule out the other possible causes and get the right treatment.

im 19 and i sometimes feel dizzy when i stand up. this sometimes comes with shaking of my legs, arms and blurrines, almost dark. whats my issue?
Female | 19
You might have orthostatic hypotension, which causes dizziness and tremors when you stand up due to a sudden drop in blood pressure. It can also cause brief vision problems. To help, drink plenty of water and avoid standing for too long. If this happens often or worsens, consult a neurologist to ensure everything is okay.

It is important to know that masturbation itself is not harmful, but rather, excess or aggressive behavior can lead to physical issues. This could be one of the reasons your symptoms occur. Try to limit masturbation and focus on a healthy lifestyle with exercise and a balanced diet. Also, see a neurologist for proper care and discuss other treatment options.
