Asked for Male | 34 Years

Good day doctor Since childhood, I have always been pressing on my nerves and muscles throughout my body, and I can't control myself. It's like grinding teeth, but in my body, and it's voluntary. These are not spasms; I do them, but I can't stop them. When I try to stop myself, I feel like I'm going to explode. The issue was minor in childhood and significantly reduced during adolescence almost to the point of disappearing. However, over the past few years, the problem has worsened significantly. Currently, I'm squeezing my body's vertebrae, especially my neck, and I feel like it's twisting. I consulted a psychiatrist and neurologist who said there is no organic issue, just a bit of anxiety. I took medications for anxiety and stress, but there was no effect. Thank you very much for your time

Answered by Dr. Gurneet Sawhney

The nature of your symptoms probably is involuntary muscle contractions or muscle spasms. It is necessary to have the condition assessed by a neurologist who specializes in movement disorders or a physiotherapist who will be able to look at your condition in person and guide you properly.

Dear Sir, Below i am sending my father MRI report, kindly guide me. MRI REPORT – BRAIN WITH CONTRAST TECHNIQUE: T1W Sagittal, DWI - b1000, ADC, GRE T2W FS Axial, MR Angiogram, FLAIR Axial & Coronal Post contrast images after administration of 5 ml of gadolinium contrast. OBSERVATION: The study reveals an intrasellar mass lesion, with enlargement of the right half of the anterior pituitary gland, extending to the suprasellar cistern. The mass lesion is predominantly isointense to gray matter on T1-weighted images. On T2-weighted images the mass is predominantly isointense to gray matter with internal areas of T2 hyperintensity suggestive of ?necrosis/cystic change. Dynamic postcontrast images revealed decreased/delayed enhancement of the mass lesion as compared to the rest of the pituitary gland. The mass lesion measures 1.2 AP x 1.6 TR x 1.6 SI cm. Superiorly the mass displaces the infundibulum to the left side. A clear CSF plane of cleavage is seen between the superior aspect of the mass lesion and the optic chasm. No significant parasellar extension of the mass lesion is seen. The cavernous segment of both internal carotid arteries show normal flow void. The mass causes mild thinning of the floor of the sella turcica, with slight bulge toward the roof of the sphenoid sinus. MR findings likely represent pituitary adenoma. Confluent and discrete areas of T2/flair hyperintensity are seen in bilateral supratentorial periventricular and subcortical deep white matter, likely representing nonspecific ischemic changes with a combination of leukoariosis, microvascular ischemic changes, lacunar infarcts and prominent perivascular spaces. Basal ganglia and thalami are normal. Midbrain, pons and medulla are normal in signal intensity. The cerebellum appears normal. Bilateral CP angle cisterns are normal. The ventricular system and subarachnoid spaces are normal. No significant midline shift is seen. The cranio-cervical junction is normal. Post-contrast images reveal no other abnormal enhancing pathology. Bilateral maxillary sinus polyps are noted.

I’ve had a headache for the past five days. Usually behind the eyes and sometimes a stabbing pain behind the head.

Male | 19

This is a common type­ called a tension headache­. These types of he­adaches can cause pain behind your e­yes. They can also make you fe­el a stabbing pain at the back of your head. Stre­ss, bad posture, or lack of sleep ofte­n cause them. Try to relax and drink lots of wate­r. Do some easy neck stre­tches too. If the headache­s keep happening, talk to a doctor.

Female | 33

Epilepsy can be challenging at this time. It’s worrying that you have a few seizures each year. It may be a good idea to see a neurologist. They can help work out whether it’s safe for you to get pregnant while controlling your fitness. You need to strike the right balance for yourself and your unborn child too.

My left hand is numb and sometimes have a tingling feeling, before it was from finger tips to wrists but it extended till elbows. I consulted a doc and he said that there is no sign of nerve injury as there is sweat in my hand. He said that if there is a nerve problem my hand will not sweat. He also said that it maybe because i may have it some bone or nerve unknowingly, and did not prescribe any medication. However the numbness is still there for nearly 2 days and it has extended till my shoulder joint. I have no feeling in my left hand. No pain no sense no feeling.

Male | 17

You’re having a health issue in your left hand, as notice of the deadness is still staying up to your shoulder. This might result from a compressed nerve or issues in your neck or shoulder. It is essential to make a doctor’s condition, request these tests, and do imaging tests such as MRI. Do not put off these symptoms.

What is a sleep stroke?

Female | 30

There is no medical condition specifically referred to as a "sleep stroke." However, strokes can occur at any time, including during sleep. A stroke happens when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, either due to a blocked blood vessel (ischemic stroke) or bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). The risk factors for stroke include hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and other cardiovascular conditions. If someone experiences symptoms like sudden numbness, confusion, trouble speaking, or severe headache, even during sleep, immediate medical attention is crucial.

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.
