I've been doing some ab exercises, but I realized I wasn't breathing properly during them. Now, the veins in my neck hurt and I've got a headache just on the right side of my head. It's been about 6 hours since I first noticed this. How can I tell if any of the veins got damaged or ruptured?

-It's unlikely that the veins in your neck were damaged or ruptured from holding your breath during exercise. The pain could be from muscle strain or tension. If the pain persists or worsens, or if you notice swelling, bruising, or difficulty moving your

Question

I've been dealing with head spinning for years now, and it's really starting to worry me. I had an MRI scan about three years ago and have been on medications like Icosar Lipikind Plus and Vertizoc since then, but I still get these dizzy spells pretty often. Do you have any idea why this might be happening or what else I could do?

I've been dealing with migraines lately, and it seems like they're just getting worse. Are there any remedies I can try at home for some relief?

Question

I've been having these vertigo episodes over the last six months, and despite seeing an ENT and getting all sorts of tests like VNG and audiometry, everything came back normal. The ENT even said it might not be vertigo and suggested I see a neurologist. I had an MRI done, but that was fine too. I've been on stuzeran 25 and renerve plus for about four months, and while there's a bit of improvement in my dizziness and motion sickness, it's nothing significant. Lately, I've started getting headaches after sitting in front of the computer for a long time, about 2-3 hours. I even saw an ophthalmologist, but my eyes are perfectly fine. With all these doctor visits, nobody's been able to pinpoint what's actually causing my problems. Any idea what's going on or what could be the reason for these headaches?
