I'm dealing with some vertigo and wondering if the medication Stemetil MD 5mg is effective for that. Can you explain what this medicine is used for and how it might help me with vertigo? I'm feeling a bit concerned and would really appreciate any advice you can provide.

Stemetil MD (5mg) contains Prochlorperazine, an antihistamine and antiemetic medication, which is often used to treat vertigo, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness associated with balance disorders, motion sickness, and migraines. For vertigo, Stemetil MD can help alleviate symptoms such as spinning, dizziness, and nausea

I'm experiencing numbness in my feet and hands, and there's also this burning sensation in my hands. Sometimes they even get really hot. Do you have any idea what's going on?

These symptoms could be due to peripheral neuropathy. I recommend taking Vitamin B12 supplements such as Neurobion Forte once daily. Additionally, you can use a topical cream like Volini for relief from burning sensation.

I've been dealing with terminal neuralgia for over 10 years and take 200-300mg of Medicine 56 daily, sometimes up to 8 pills if the pain gets unbearable. My doctor says brain surgery is the only option, but it's too risky. Are there any ayurvedic or homeopathic treatments that could help with this condition?

surgery is advised to the patient ,since conservative therapy is not responding.

I've been dealing with some weird numbness in my left leg, specifically below the knee and above the foot. It all started after I was sitting for a while with my legs stretched out. I thought it was just the usual numbness from stretching and figured it would go away, but it's still there, and I can barely feel anything in that area. Is this something I should be worried about, or is there anything I can do to make it go away faster?

Tke some time rest your leg in supine position,it will settle,if its becoming worse,visit General Physician for appropriate management
