Question

I'm really struggling with a serious migraine on the left side of my forehead. Are there any remedies I can try at home to help with this?

I'm really worried about my brother. He had his first seizure about 6 years ago and it turned out to be a small non-cancerous tumor in his brain. They operated on him back then and hes been on medication ever since. We were told the meds would stop any future seizures, but hes had three in the last year. The first two happened because he accidentally missed his meds, but the third one is a mystery because hes been following his medication routine perfectly. I'm trying to understand what else could be causing these seizures. Could you help me figure out all the possible reasons why this is happening?

Question

I've been experiencing these strange vibrations in the back left side of my head for the past few months. They only last about 5 to 10 seconds, but it's really starting to worry me. Could this be something serious? Should I be concerned?
