I'm really concerned about what my doctor said about having weak nerves, and now I'm also dealing with a slip disc. Can nerve weakness be treated? I just really want to understand if there's hope for improvement.

I'm having some issues with my hands; there's this strange tingling or jhanjhanahat that I can't shake off. It feels like my immunity isn't up to par lately, and I'm also feeling really cold all the time. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Postnasal drip or nasal discharge can be a concern. Possible causes: 1. _Allergies_: Seasonal or environmental allergies can trigger excess mucus production. 2. _Sinusitis_: Inflammation or infection of the sinuses can cause nasal discharge. 3. _Anatomical issues_: Deviated septum, nasal polyps, or other structural problems can contribute to nasal discharge. 4. _Infections_: Cold, flu, or other respiratory infections can cause nasal discharge. To address the issue: 1. _Consult an ENT specialist_: Rule out underlying conditions that may require medical attention. 2. _Use saline nasal sprays_: Help moisturize the nasal passages and thin out mucus. 3. _Try steam inhalation_: Ease congestion and promote mucus clearance. 4. _Maintain good hygiene_: Regularly clean your nose and surroundings to prevent infection. Monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if: 1. _Discharge is yellow or green_: May indicate infection. 2. _Discharge is bloody_: Requires immediate medical attention. 3. _Symptoms worsen or persist_: Consult your doctor for further guidance.

I've been experiencing this strange sensation like a needle poking in my back for a few seconds at a time. It's not really painful, but it's definitely noticeable and a bit unsettling. Should I be worried about this?

The drowsy sensation after taking Tazloc Trio 40 mg may be related to several factors: _Possible Causes_ 1. _Post-exercise hypotension_: After intense exercise, your blood pressure may drop, leading to drowsiness. 2. _Medication side effect_: Tazloc Trio 40 mg contains telmisartan, which can cause drowsiness as a side effect. 3. _Sleep deprivation_: Insufficient sleep due to restless legs syndrome can exacerbate drowsiness. 4. _High blood pressure medication adjustment_: The recent change from CETANIL M 50 to Tazloc Trio 40 mg may be contributing to the drowsy sensation. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult your doctor_: Discuss the drowsy sensation with your doctor to adjust your medication or dosage. 2. _Monitor blood pressure_: Regularly check your blood pressure to ensure it's within a healthy range. 3. _Prioritize sleep_: Establish a consistent sleep schedule and explore relaxation techniques to manage restless legs syndrome. 4. _Adjust exercise timing_: Consider exercising later in the day or adjusting your workout intensity to minimize post-exercise hypotension.
