I'm really worried about some persistent pain I've been experiencing. My right hand has been hurting for about 10 years now. It used to get worse whenever I lifted anything heavy, but lately, the pain has become constant, starting from my neck and down to the tip of my right hand. Do you have any idea what might be causing this, and is there anything I can do to alleviate it?

It sounds like you may have a nerve-related issue, such as cervical radiculopathy, which can cause pain radiating from the neck to the arm. Avoid heavy lifting, and consider seeing a neurologist or orthopedist for an MRI or detailed evaluation to pinpoint the cause and get relief.

Question

What is the best painkiller for nerve pain?

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.
