I'm having this neck pain for the last couple of days, and it feels like my neck is kind of locked up, maybe like suluku or something. Could you recommend any ointments or balms that might help with this issue?

Feeling a heavy head, especially after eating, can be uncomfortable. Given your blood pressure (BP) reading of 15090 mmHg, it's essential to address both concerns. However, I must emphasize that medication should only be taken under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

Possible Causes of Heavy Head

High Blood Pressure: Uncontrolled high BP can cause headaches and a feeling of heaviness in the head.

Digestive Issues: Eating certain foods can trigger digestive issues, leading to a heavy head feeling.

Dehydration: Inadequate hydration can cause headaches and a feeling of heaviness.

Lifestyle Changes

Monitor and manage BP: Work with your doctor to control your BP through lifestyle changes and medication.

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to avoid dehydration.

Eat smaller, frequent meals: Avoid heavy meals that can exacerbate digestive issues.

Avoid trigger foods: Identify and avoid foods that trigger digestive issues or headaches.

Medication (only under medical guidance)

BP medication: Your doctor may prescribe medication to help control your BP.

Pain relief medication: Over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen or ibuprofen may be recommended for headaches.

I've been diagnosed with myositis ossificans and really want to avoid surgery what are some effective non-surgical ways to manage the calcification and reduce symptoms? Are there specific exercises, medications, or lifestyle changes that can help slow down or reverse the condition?

it's been a year since my tibial plateau surgery with a 6 inch plate and I still get pain when standing for around 10 minutes - is this normal or should I be concerned about how it's healing?

It's understandable to be concerned about persistent pain after a tibial plateau fracture surgery, even after a year. While some degree of pain and stiffness is expected during recovery, prolonged pain warrants further evaluation. It's crucial to consult your surgeon or orthopedic specialist to determine the cause of your pain and discuss potential next steps.

I've been dealing with calcaneal bursitis for two years now and nothing seems to help tried both regular doctors and homeopathy but no luck. A new doctor suggested surgery but mentioned the bone might grow back. Is there any permanent fix for this? I'm ready to book an online appointment right away if there's a solution.

It's understandable that you're feeling frustrated after two years of dealing with calcaneal bursitis and not finding relief with traditional and homeopathic treatments. Since it's been persistent for this long, further investigation may be necessary
