I'm experiencing this intense headache that seems to start from the back on the left side of my head, but it only happens during orgasm. There's no lingering effect afterward, and everything else like my diet and sleep is normal. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm curious about what might be causing this. Any idea what could be going on?

It sounds like the headache could be related to a tension or vascular response triggered during orgasm. While it's not uncommon for certain activities to cause temporary discomfort, if this continues, I recommend consulting with a doctor to rule out any underlying neurological issues. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper sleep, hydration, and stress management is important.

I'm dealing with this twitching on my left index finger that started a couple of days ago. It's just that one finger and it only lasts a few minutes, but it keeps happening. I'm kind of worried about what could be causing it and wondering if it's something serious. Is there a way to sort this out on my own, or do I need to see a doctor? Any insights would be really helpful.

Question

I've been feeling really off lately. My head gets super heavy whenever I start talking, though it's weird because it doesn't actually hurt. Sometimes my hands start shaking, and I've been feeling pretty dizzy too. During conversations, my mind just goes completely blank for a bit, which is really worrying. There's also a bit of neck pain happening. I've been on some tablets for about 20 days now, but I'm not seeing any improvements. I've had an MRI, EEG, and my thyroid levels checked, but everything came back normal. What could be going on here? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Stroke Signs Recognition: How to Spot a Stroke Early and Act Quickly

A stroke is a sudden medical emergency that can have life-altering consequences. Every year, millions of people around the world experience strokes, and the difference between life and death, or between severe disability and recovery, often comes down to how quickly the signs of a stroke are recognised and how swiftly treatment is administered. Recognising the signs of a stroke is crucial for reducing long-term damage to the brain and improving recovery chances.

Conversion Disorder in Adults

Conversion disorder, also known as Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), is a complex mental health condition characterized by neurological symptoms that medical or neurological conditions cannot explain. These symptoms can include paralysis, tremors, or non-epileptic seizures, and they often arise in response to psychological stress or trauma. Unlike other neurological disorders, conversion disorder does not have a clear organic cause, making it a unique intersection between mental and physical health.
