I started practising spoken English recently, and I experience neck tightness followed by tightness at the back of my head and throughout my head, only when speaking English with people over the phone for about 20 minutes.
I feel pressure to speak correctly and find words quickly during conversations.
When I avoid English conversations, I don't experience this problem, but I need to practise speaking English regularly to improve my fluency.
I am concerned about relying on painkillers or avoiding English practice instead of addressing the underlying cause.
I have a history of high blood pressure currently 130/90 and was previously prescribed telmisartan 40 mg.
Please help identify the cause and advise me on safe treatment and how I can continue learning English without triggering these symptoms.
Hi Doctors,
Please let me know which hospitals in Mumbai have the facility for Intraepidermal Nerve Fiber Density (ENFD) test to confirm Small Fiber Peripheral Neuropathy (SFPN).
Had an accident 6 months ago - got hit in the head by a bus at 30 kmph on left side of forehead. No broken bones, but right side retina detached and had first emergency eye surgery (general anaesthesia). 90 days after, had second eye surgery (local anaesthesia) and very next day onwards started strange extreme fatigue. Fatigue was so bad was bed ridden for 3 weeks. Slowly improving but fatigue still comes in waves during the day.
Thyroid is normal with 150 mg Thyroxin per day, Sugar is normal at 5.8 HbA1C. Brain scans are normal with no lesions. Optical nerve is normal.MRI is normal. EKG is normal. No sleep issues. Not depressed.
Can't climb one flight of stairs without running out of breath and feeling as if 10kg weight tied to legs. 51 years old and was active and healthy until the accident.
Right hand injury during the accident is undergoing physiotherapy for pain until neck and shoulder. No other anomalies.
What is the right doctor / specialist to help me out ?
Sir actually I m 18 year old boy and I was facing issue related to lock jaw and cracking sound near my ear
This was very mild issue not so serious
But I still had a ct scan for brain with mandible plain scan.
And now I m afraid will it change how my body or face was supposed to grow or can this alter my dna or future genes and can this cause any issue in future
Sir please tell
37M. I was fine until ~50 days ago. Since then I have intermittent head heaviness/fogginess, needing extra effort to concentrate/work, mild dizziness and a feeling that my head/body is not fully focused. I get random brief pin-prick pains in different scalp/head areas and occasional brief zap/electric sensations; these are now less frequent. I also have heaviness/tightness at the back of my head and lower neck. At times I feel internal shaking without visible tremor. Occasionally I feel subjective leg heaviness and positional finger tingling, but I can walk, work, drive and perform daily activities without persistent weakness or falls. Symptoms often reduce when busy. I have anxiety about brain disease and am seeing a psychologist. Video neurological assessment was normal. Eye examination, including fundus/optic discs, was normal. B12 was 219 and Vitamin D 7 four months ago. Could this be anxiety/migraine, vitamin deficiency, cervical spine/neck-related, or another deadly neuro conditi
