Got a severe headache and my CT scan showed a 32mm calcified granuloma in the left frontal lobe. How serious is this and do I need surgery for it?

A calcified granuloma, especially if it's 32mm in size and in the frontal lobe, is generally not life-threatening, but it's crucial to understand the potential implications and get a proper medical evaluation. Calcified granulomas are usually benign and do not require treatment unless they are causing symptoms or are a sign of an underlying condition. Surgery is usually not necessary for a calcified granuloma itself

I'm experiencing some numbness in my hands that's been going on for the past 2 to 3 months. It seems to happen when I'm doing my regular activities like lifting a bag or sometimes even when I wake up from sleep. I never had this issue before, and it's starting to concern me. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I've been having this weird tickling and tingling feeling in my lower belly and left leg at night for about a year now. It seems to come and go in waves. I also mentioned it to my doctor once and they said something about OLD. I'm starting to get a little worried. Do you have any idea what's going on? Could it be related to the OLD or something else entirely?

may be related to a variety of conditions such as nerve compression, spinal issues, vascular problems, or COPD. Its important to consult with a healthcare provider to get a clear diagnosis and receive appropriate treatment. In the meantime, managing your posture during sleep, reducing stress, and ensuring proper circulation through exercise can help alleviate symptoms.
