I'm experiencing headaches frequently and I'm really worried. I already visited an ENT doctor, but the headaches keep coming back. What could be causing them and should I see a different specialist?

Headaches can have various causes, including stress, dehydration, eye strain, or even underlying medical conditions. For relief, you can try taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for headache. Make sure to stay hydrated, practice good posture, and manage stress levels. If the headaches persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your primary care physician for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with vertigo for the past four months, and it's really bothering me. Every time I change position, even for just about 34 seconds, this dizziness hits. My family doctor suggested I take Vitcofol, Neurobion Forte, and Betahistine 16, and I got some injections too, but it hasn't helped much. The vertigo seems to be worse in the morning, and I'm struggling to stand properly. I'm only 20, and my CT scan came back normal. Could there be something else causing this, or should I try different treatments?
You've taken the right steps: 1. _Cooling the burn_: Running the burn under cold water, then ice water, helped reduce the temperature and ease pain. 2. _Ice compresspack_: Applying something cold has helped numb the pain. _Current situation:_ 1. _Pain persistence_: The throbbingstinging pain, even after 24 hours, indicates the burn is likely deeper than initially thought. 2. _Cold relief_: The fact that cold compresses provide relief suggests the burn is still inflamed. _Recommended next steps:_ 1. _Seek medical attention_: Visit a doctor or a burn specialist to assess the burn's depth and provide proper treatment. 2. _Topical creamsointments_: Your doctor may prescribe topical creams or ointments to promote healing, reduce pain, and prevent infection. 3. _Pain management_: Your doctor can recommend pain management options, such as pain relievers or nerve blocks. 4. _Wound care_: Proper wound care, including dressing changes and antibiotic ointments, can help promote healing and prevent infection.

How long do damaged nerves take to heal?
Regeneration time depends on how seriously your nerve was injured and the type of injury that you sustained. If your nerve is bruised or traumatized but is not cut, it should recover over 6-12 weeks. A nerve that is cut will grow at 1mm per day, after about a 4 week period of 'rest' following your injury.
