I'm genuinely worried about my mom. Shes been feeling this creepy crawling sensation under her skin, like ants biting her, and it's been happening several times throughout the day. It's mostly in the upper part of her body but seems to be spreading. This has been going on for over a month, and she's tried allergy meds like Atarax and Candiforce, but nothing's helping. And shes also diabetic, which adds to my concerns. Im not sure which specialist we should consult. Any guidance would be really appreciated.

I've been experiencing this odd crawling sensation in my body, mainly in the breast area and the sole of my foot. It sometimes happens in other parts too. Occasionally, there's a twitch or a prickling pain. Is this something serious I should be worried about? Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you're experiencing abnormal sensations like crawling, twitching, and pricking pain, which could be due to nerve irritation or other underlying issues. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation, as these symptoms could be related to conditions like nerve compression or vitamin deficiencies.

So I've been noticing this odd smell like something is burning even though nothing actually is, and it's kind of freaking me out. Plus, I've got a mild headache and I'm dealing with GERD. Could this all be related, or should I be worried about something else going on?

It can be case of migraine.

I'm really concerned about a pulsating sensation I've been feeling above my temple, which seems to extend towards my ear. It's become quite severe at times and feels like a sharp, injecting pain. This has been happening on and off for a few months now, and I'm genuinely worried that this might mean my blood vessels could burst. I've also got some stress, wisdom teeth pain, and ear blockage on the same side. Everything seems to be happening on the right side of my head, and it's making me really anxious. Is this something serious that I should be worried about?

yes
