Is throat pain after stroke normal?
My grandfather age is 69 he has second brain stroke before 5 month today his throat is peining (nv tude is use to feeding) please doctor tell is any problem related to stroke
Neurosurgeon
Answered on 3rd Sept '24
Often after a stroke, people can have problems swallowing. This is called dysphagia. It can be painful to the throat and hence eating or drinking becomes difficult. This is because the muscles associated with swallowing may not work properly after a stroke. Discuss this with your neurologist to accomplish feeding and avoid any complications.

Mild to moderate numbness that comes and goes on right side of head and behind ear. It's been going on for 2+ hours.
Male | 20
Seek immediate medical attention from a neurologist to determine the cause, as it could be related to factors, some of which may require prompt evaluation and treatment. Don't ignore concerning symptoms, especially if they are accompanied by weakness, difficulty speaking, severe headache, or changes in vision.

I am suffering the following: - Post Polio Residual Paralysis cerebral vascular accident Is it coming under Multiple disability or Locomotor Disability
Male | 64
Your conditions, Polio Residual Paralysis and cerebral vascular accident (stroke) would generally be categorized as "Multiple Disabilities" rather than "Locomotor Disability." Multiple Disabilities involve coexisting impairments in different body systems, while Locomotor Disability typically refers to issues related to mobility. It's important to consult a medical professional for accurate classification.

Right head always pain, every 4 to 5 days in week
Female | 29
Some people have pain on one side of their head for many days in a week. This could be a type of bad headache called a migraine. Migraines make your head hurt in throbs. Lights and sounds may feel too bright or loud. Stress, not enough sleep, some foods, and not drinking enough water can cause migraines. You can try to drink lots of water, get good rest, keep calm, and stay away from bright lights and loud noises. But if the head pain keeps happening, you should talk to a neurologist.

Yesterday I had leg and feets pain like sprain today at night suddenly it started twitching it was so intense that I was moving my legs hands arm it was more in arm I was crying out ???? and and teeth were shivering and now suddenly my pain disappeared and shivering also disappeared I still can't stop crying. my forehead is hot and my teeth are shivering but I am not feeling much cold on my feet but there is some coldness
Female | 18
The twitching and shaking may be the result of muscle spasms caused by dehydration, low levels of certain minerals like potassium or calcium, or overexertion of muscles. A hot forehead could be a sign of increased body temperature. Be sure to drink enough water and eat foods rich in minerals like bananas, nuts, and dairy products. On the other hand, taking a warm bath and resting can also help relax your muscles. If these symptoms continue, it is necessary to see a neurologist.

My sister had a RTA last year in which she had a paraplegic spinal cord injury,she is doing physiotherapy since one year still can't walk without calipers,has no sensation,she is 20 years old
Female | 20
A spinal cord issue such as hers might result in weakness of stepping and the absence of the sense of touch. It occurs when the spinal cord sustains damage, generally from events such as a car ramming into it. Exercise makes muscles stronger, but full recovery might not be attained.

I have migraine in left side
Male | 22
Headaches on one side of your head, throbbing with each pulse. Loud noises and bright lights feel like knives. Sometimes, nausea even joins in. This unwelcome guest? A migraine. Certain foods, stress, lack of sleep, or hormonal changes can trigger it. But you can fight back! Stay hydrated, breathe deeply, and find calm. Pay attention to what triggers it. If migraines don't take the hint, talk to a neurologist.

Sir, I am 17 years old. I have headache for last one year. I have also some symptoms like nausea,sickness, tension,stress. I forget what I say.
Male | 17
The condition of a person can worsen due to having headaches, nausea, and being under pressure from having too much work to do. This type of symptoms may occur due to different things such as; lack of enough sleep, poor eating habits, or being overwhelmed by what is happening around them. Make sure you look after yourself. Get enough sleep and eat well.

When I press my head backside (the place where it was hit when I fell)... It's bleeding from nose... And we took a CT scan they told there's nothing on it... But now it's strted to bleeding on ears and then the eyes on the side where it was hit
Male | 16
It sounds like you are experiencing some serious symptoms, even though your CT scan showed no abnormalities. Bleeding from the nose, ears, and eyes after a head injury can be concerning and should be taken seriously. I strongly recommend that you visit a neurologist or an ENT specialist as soon as possible for a thorough examination and proper treatment. They will be able to assess your condition more accurately and provide the necessary care.

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.

For the past 3 weeks now maybe longer I’ve been experiencing severe headaches. I ended up going to hospital for a head CT but they never did one and just put it down to stress which I know it’s not the case there’s definitely something wrong. I returned to work yesterday and was completely fine until I woke up this morning with a severe headache again and in pain all over. My throat has swelled up and I’ve been vomiting all day. I’ve taken codeine that has eased the pain a bit. I just don’t know what to do or what could be causing this. My GP has been no help either and I can’t continue risking taking anymore time off work
Female | 18
Having severe headaches, throwing up, swelling of the throat, and general body weakness is odd. It could be an indication of a serious problem that needs immediate attention. You should see a doctor who will carry out proper examinations and tests to establish the root cause. If possible, think about getting a second opinion without any delay.

My name Rizwan I want to know why my upper head having low pain and sometimes number and ears too numb What is the issue
Male | 25
You might have tension headaches. They cause mild upper head pain and numb ears. Common culprits? Stress piles on. Poor posture adds strain. Staring at screens strains eyes. Relax, give your body a break. Do some easy neck and shoulder stretches. Look away from screens often. Stay hydrated, young friend. Sleep enough hours at night. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a neurologist soon.

Headache on frontal head with vomiting
Male | 59
Headaches at the front of your head, along with vomiting, can happen together. Common causes are migraines, tension, or sinus issues. To help, stay in a dark, quiet place, drink plenty of water, and avoid bright lights. Pain medicine might also help. If symptoms don't improve, see a doctor. It's important to rest and stay hydrated. If the symptoms are severe and ongoing, seek advice from a neurologist.

I am 18 years old boy and I have very mild epilepsy and I am on medication and not getting seizures. I want to take L- Citrulline as a pre-workout supplement. Is it safe ?
Male | 18
L-Citrulline is a supplement that is usually safe, but if you have epilepsy and are already taking medication, it is better to be careful. L-Citrulline may interfere with the medication you are taking for epilepsy, so it is best to consult a neurologist before introducing it to your routine. Your doctor will make sure it won't create any difficulties for you.

Experiencing chest pain intermittently for three years is abnormal. Chest discomfort arises from diverse causes such as cardiac issues, muscular strain, or acid reflux.
