Can I take migraine medication after paracetamol for pressure and dizziness?

My son 21 years old. Struggling with migrains. Have now started to feel pressure in forehead and dizzy. Have just now taken paracetamol 1 gram. Is it ok to take migraine medication he got from doctor last time now already? He is really scared to wake up and get it like last time. It was really bad with vomiting.

Weakness and sensitivity to light, as well as vomiting, may be the result of migraines. He is on paracetamol which is great, but he can also take the migraine medication his doctor prescribed if it is the case, even though it is soon after the paracetamol. It is important that the doctor’s guidance is adhered to and the medication is taken as instructed which will also help to prevent the next similar episode from happening.

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 have a head pain past 1 year what can i do

Male | 18

Creative tension, lack of rest, or even strained eyes could cause headaches. You should visit a doctor who will check to see if there is something serious and give you ways to reduce the pain.

I have been diagnosed with IIH. Could I work in a hospital with equipment that use electromagnetic radiation in the future if I get a shunt placement ? Will it affect my shunt valve settings?

Female | 27

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) can cause headaches and vision problems due to increased pressure around the brain. One common treatment is shunt placement, a tube that drains excess fluid. Working with radiation equipment in a hospital is unlikely to affect your shunt, as shunt valves are not impacted by electromagnetic radiation.

Can i marry a girl who having sero negative Nmo disease? Is nmo effect pregnancy?

స్త్రీ | 25

 NMO, short for Neuromyelitis Optica, is an autoimmune disease that hits the nervous system and is likely to be rare. It is marked by the presence of a range of symptoms such as for example vision impairment, muscle weakness, and bladder control problems. NMO by itself is indeed not the reason for pregnancy issues but making an appointment with the right doctor to talk about these issues is fundamental. They can assist in treating the disease.

Why my headache is not going away? It’s a throbbing headache in the temple of my head.

Female | 25

The throbbing headache you've got is like­ly tension-related. Stre­ss, fatigue, poor posture, or skipping meals can trigge­r these kinds of headache­s. Be sure to drink plenty of wate­r. Try relaxing with deep bre­aths or meditation too. If the headache­ won't quit, take a break. Rest in a calm, dark room for a bit.

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.

Can you please suggest some nontropics medicines which can remove Amyloid Plaques from the brain ?

Male | 53

Amyloid plaques in the brain are associated with memory issues and confusion which are typical of Alzheimer's disease. Nontropic drugs which are the drugs being studied for their possible use in removing the plaques are still in the research phase. Currently, there isn't a particular medicine that can do this. Consuming a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and stimulating your mind are all great ways to support brain health.
