Your grandfather might be experiencing tongue problems acquired after a recent stroke. This is the term for dysphagia, which is difficulty in swallowing and speaking. Amazingly, he can now open his mouth and move his tongue slowly. For him to make a full recovery, speech therapy might be useful. Exercises and techniques help in the aspect of toning control of the tongue and swallowing, adding to the general treatment of dysphagia.

Why I feel suddenly dizziness
Female | 24
It’s normal to feel lightheaded every once in a while and it’s totally natural to panic. There are a bunch of different reasons why this might happen. Maybe you haven’t eaten much today or haven’t had anything to drink in a few hours. Perhaps you’re working out too hard and getting dehydrated, or you stood up really fast and got dizzy from the blood rush. Some people even feel faint when they’re anxious.

I’m 21 year old female the last 5 days my body’s felt like it’s floating and I’m having brain fog and blurry vision
Female | 21
Many things could cause you to feel like you’re floating, have brain fog, or experience blurry vision. For example, this might happen if you’re dehydrated, haven’t slept enough, or are stressed out. So my advice would be to try drinking more water, getting some rest, and taking a little time off to relax. If none of these help and the symptoms persist then I think you should see your neurologist about it.

I can't smell any thing I can't get any taste of food my head is paining alot
Male | 18
You seem down about not smelling or tasting. Plus, that headache is tough. A cold or sinus issue might cause this. Stay hydrated. Rest up. Try decongestants and antihistamines if needed. But if it worsens or lingers, see a doctor.

Dizziness and a pin like feeling in the center of the head may happen due to various factors like migraines, tension headaches, anxiety, or neurological problems. Consult a neurologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.

I get these severe headaches that's starts from my eyes Before the actual headache starts my eyes gets like the rippling water effect that starts from the outer of the eyeball As theat progresses I get this severe headache on either side of my brain towards the centre where it feels like a stabbing pain. Sometimes my ears start painingand the headache lasts for 3-5 hours where I have to stop what I'm doing and lay down and take a pain tablet and sleep. Even while my eyes are closed I see the rippling water. Sometimes I get it 2-3 times in a day and I'm totally drained out. Even when the headaches stop the brain still pains for days...a simple cough and my brain pains. I also get very hot and perspire. Sometimes my face feels numbs and I feel almost lifeless and don't want to talk or move that's how severe the pain is. What is this?
Female | 51
Your migraine headache disorder could be a possible cause. You may experience severe pain on one side of your head and even have visual disturbances, like a "rippling water" effect, before the headache starts. Sensitivity to light and sound, along with numbness or weakness, can also happen during a migraine attack. The key is to identify and avoid potential triggers such as stress, lack of sleep, and certain foods. Keeping a headache journal can help you spot patterns. You can also try relaxation techniques, maintain regular sleep routines, and take prescribed medications to prevent or treat migraines. It's important to seek medical advice from a neurologist for a personalized treatment plan.

If you are having freezing and tightness in the back of head then it could be a neurological condition that must be evaluated by a neurologist. And for low vitamin D3 you need to consult a physician or an endocrinologist.

Spinal implants is used for spinal cord injury
Male | 50
Spinal implants are typically not used to treat spinal cord injuries directly. Instead, they are more commonly used to stabilize the spine and provide support in cases of spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative spinal conditions. Treatment for spinal cord injuries often focuses on rehabilitation, oral medication, and supportive care to maximize function and quality of life. However, in some cases where there's spinal instability due to injury, spinal implants may be used as part of surgical intervention to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.

I am 24 year old and I m having stiffness in my head feel pinching irritation and feels empty like feeling very quick and tired
Female | 24
Hey, Welcome to ClinicSpots. We understand your concerns and are here to provide guidance.
Feeling stiffness, pinching irritation, and a sense of emptiness in your head could indicate various underlying factors. These symptoms may stem from stress, anxiety, or even migraines. Stress often manifests as tension headaches or a feeling of pressure in the head. It's also possible these symptoms could be related to migraines, which can cause throbbing pain and sensitivity to light and sound. Additionally, conditions like anxiety can contribute to sensations of head stiffness and quick fatigue. It's important to consider any recent changes in your lifestyle or stress levels that might be triggering these symptoms.
Next Steps to Follow
- Consult a Healthcare Professional: Schedule an appointment with a neurologist or a primary care physician to discuss your symptoms in detail. They can conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause.
- Medical Evaluation: Your doctor may recommend diagnostic tests such as imaging studies or blood tests to rule out neurological conditions or other health issues.
- Lifestyle Modifications: Practice stress management techniques, and gentle exercises like yoga or meditation, and maintain a regular sleep schedule to support overall well-being and manage symptoms.
- Follow-up: Keep track of any changes in your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider as advised.
Health Tip
Incorporate relaxation techniques into your daily routine to help alleviate symptoms. Deep breathing exercises and gentle stretches can help reduce tension and promote relaxation.

Been having severe pains behind my head down to my neck and also numbness in my feet and my hands feel very light
Male | 32
These things could happen because of nerves. Nerves can get hurt in many ways. Bad posture, injuries, or sicknesses like diabetes can hurt nerves. To feel better, you need good posture. You need to move around. You need to eat good food. If you still feel these things, you should see a neurologist.

I used tap water to flush my nose out as I was congested before realising and then about 1 hour later used boiled water as I know it shouldn’t be tap water I’m In Northern Ireland what are chances of me getting brain infection I’m worried now No symptoms it was 2 days ago when will I know if I’m clear of infection
Female | 31
Using tap water to flush your nose can be unsafe. Tap water may have bad germs. But, do not worry too much about it. Getting a brain infection from this is very rare. Since you used boiled water later, you are likely safe. If you have no signs after two days, you are likely okay. But, look out for bad headaches, fever, or stiff neck. These could mean infection.

Suffered from stroke 8 months back since the patient is suffering from dysphagia. From the 8 months nothing improvement is shown in dysphagia. When he tries to eat something suddenly the cough comes. From 8 months feeding is from Ryles Tube. Sir please tell us what we can do
Male | 65
Some people have trouble swallowing after a stroke. This condition is called dysphagia, and it's common after a stroke. If someone coughs while eating, it could mean that food is going into their airways instead of their stomach. A feeding tube can help for a while. Speech therapy often helps people regain their ability to swallow over time. Keep in touch with your doctors to get the best care plan.

I am a nurve patient, but my disease is not anymore, then also I am taking medicine, So my question is that within how many days can I decrease medicine power
Male | 25
When symptoms disappear, it indicates that the treatment is working. For nerve problems, the patient should gradually change medication. The body needs time, usually a few months, to adjust to a new dose before considering reducing it. If you rush this process, symptoms may return.

I am feeling extreme pain in head
Male | 36
Headaches can happen due to stress, lack of sleep, or dehydration. Besides that, you might be having a tension headache due to staring at screens for too long. You should try to breathe in a quiet room, hydrate your body, and perhaps use a cold compress on your head. If the pain doesn't go away, it's best to talk to a neurologist.

The causes of these types of headaches are lack of adequate sleep, stress, dehydration, or even certain foods. To ease the pain, you may make sure you drink enough water, have proper sleep, do not allow stress to take over, and stay away from trigger foods. If the symptoms persist, it is good to visit a doctor

Male | 27
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.

I understand your niece faces brain meningioma and a tumor in her right eye nerve – serious conditions, yet treatable. Meningioma often brings headaches, vision troubles, and weakness.

Female | 18
Feeling dizzy and weak for days isn't great. It might be due to skipping meals, stress, or low iron. The headache and forehead pain could be related too. Make sure to rest, eat iron-rich foods like greens or meat, and stay hydrated. If you don't feel better soon, visit a neurologist.
