I'm really struggling with cervical spondylosis and loss of cervical lordosis. My MRI report indicates some serious stuff like a C5-C6 disc with an annular fissure and diffuse posterior bulge, and it's even got central herniation pressing on my spinal cord and affecting both neural foramina. There's this hyperintense signal on the left side of my spinal cord suggesting myomalacia. Also, the C6-C7 disc has its own issues with another fissure and bulge, plus a right paracentral herniation affecting my spinal cord and right C7 nerve, again encroaching on both neural foramina. With all this, I get this annoying tingling in my legs and nerve pain in one of my right-hand fingers. Sitting for long periods just makes my entire spine hurt. I'm curious if there's any Ayurvedic treatment out there that could completely cure this. Also, would I be able to handle any job with my condition? I've tried physiotherapy treatments like IFT, ultra cervical traction, and steam for months, which seemed to help for a while. But the pain is back. Should I keep doing the same physiotherapy again, or is there anything else you'd recommend?

I've been experiencing this weird thing where if I shake my head really hard, I feel this sharp pain on the left side. It's strange because it doesn't happen any other time, just when I do this. Should I be worried about it? Any idea what could be causing this?

I'm really curious about something to do with migraines. When you have a migraine headache and you touch your forehead, is it supposed to feel hot or cold? I'm trying to understand what the typical sensation is during these headaches. Would love to hear your thoughts.

vDuring a migraine, the forehead is often warm or hot to the touch due to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), which is a characteristic feature of migraines, although some people may experience a cold or clammy sensation, particularly if they are experiencing nausea or anxiety.

I'm experiencing some twitching in my right eye and it's been happening for about a week now. Should I be concerned or is it okay to just ignore it? I'm really curious about what could be causing this, so any insight you could give would be helpful.

Eye twitching, also known as myokymia, can be caused by various factors such as stress, fatigue, caffeine intake, or eye strain. In most cases, it is benign and resolves on its own. However, if the twitching persists for more than a week or is accompanied by other symptoms such as redness, pain, or vision changes, it is advisable to seek medical attention. To help alleviate the eye twitching, you can try using lubricating eye drops and reducing your caffeine intake. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe medications such as Botox injections to help with severe or persistent eye twitching. If the eye twitching continues or worsens, please consult with an ophthalmologist for further evaluation and management.
