I'm 30 and my leg has been pulsing since last night. I've also been dealing with neck pain. It's really starting to worry me. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you're experiencing some discomfort, but a pulsing sensation in the leg combined with neck pain could be due to muscle tension or nerve irritation. However, if the symptoms persist or worsen, its important to consult a doctor to rule out any serious issues like blood flow problems or nerve compression.

I've been experiencing this really heavy feeling in my neck for the past couple of days. It's like my neck needs constant support, almost like it's a burden. But here's the thing: it doesn't hurt, and it's not stiff. It's just unusually heavy. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

You may be experiencing neck muscle fatigue or tension. To help relieve the feeling of heaviness in your neck, you can try taking a muscle relaxant like **Cyclobenzaprine** 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel like **Voltaren Gel** to the affected area. Make sure to also practice good posture and gentle neck stretches to help alleviate the discomfort.

My dad has this constant electric current-like noise in his head, like a ringing eeee sound. He also gets cramps and pain in his upper abdomen, but his LFT and KFT tests came back normal. He had a hip replacement two years ago, two discs put in his neck spine 14 years back, and his gallbladder was removed. His blood test for thick blood was normal too. Any idea what could be causing his symptoms?

Symptoms may be neurological or metabolic—consider neurology consult and repeat imaging if needed.
