Common ones include tension headaches, conditions that affect the sinuses, and ear infections. Abnormal or severe head pressure is sometimes a sign of a serious medical condition, such as a brain tumor or aneurysm.

Question

I'm dealing with vertigo and recently visited a Patanjali Arogya Kendra. The doctor there prescribed me divya mukta vati extra power, arjunarist syrup, protiking malt, and sperimed capsules. I'm a bit worried if this is the right treatment for my vertigo. Also, my blood pressure was measured at 110150. Should I be concerned about this? Any advice would really help!

Question

I'm really concerned because for the past 15 days, I've been experiencing this muscle twitching in my upper arm near the shoulder. It happens quite frequently, and I've also noticed similar twitching in my left chest and the middle lower chest area. The twitching in my arm seems to be the most constant. Should I be worried about this?

Question

I'm looking for an alternative to Neurobion Forte injections in tablet form. Do you think the tablets would be just as effective? Also, with a B12 level of 184, what would you recommend I take?

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.
