I'm feeling this weird cold sensation at the back of my head. It happens mostly at night, and the only thing that seems to help is wearing a woollen cap while I sleep. Sometimes I feel it during the day too. I've tried putting cotton in my ears, which helps a bit but doesn't completely fix it. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

View allI've had lower back pain since October 2020, and my MRI showed disc bulging at L3, L4, L5, and S1. I also have sciatica nerve pain down my left leg. I've been doing physiotherapy with heat and electrotherapy for 18 days, but it's not getting better. Would seeing a chiropractor help faster, or is surgery my only option?
Disc bulges with sciatica may improve with physiotherapy and pain meds; chiropractic care may help but surgery is advised only if severe symptoms persist.

My friend had a bike accident 8 months ago and got a brain injury with a blood clot. Even though the clot got better, he still has memory and behavior problems and is on medication. Now he's been diagnosed with a fistula and needs surgery. Is it safe to try homeopathy for the fistula while he's still taking his brain injury meds?
Homeopathy is not recommended for fistulas with history of trauma—best to go with surgical correction after neuro clearance.

I've been noticing that whenever I'm stressed out, I get pain in my left arm and sometimes in my left hand, along with this tingling sensation. It's worse after nights when I've slept poorly. Plus, there's this spot on the left side of my head that also starts hurting around the same time. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing these symptoms?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of nerve compression or pinched nerves, especially since the pain is associated with tingling sensations. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Additionally, you can use a topical pain relief cream containing diclofenac applied to the affected area. It is also important to practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation to help manage your symptoms. If the pain persists, I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
