I'm really worried because the right side is paralyzed, and we found out there's a clot in the left part of the brain from an MRI. They mentioned there's a blocked artery to the left brain. Could you explain what this means and what steps we should take next? Is there a way to improve the situation, and how serious is this condition?

The MRI shows a clot in the left side of the brain, which is affecting the right side of the body, causing paralysis. Additionally, one of the arteries supplying blood to the left brain is blocked, which could be contributing to the condition.

I'm having headaches almost every day, and they only seem to go away after I take a dart tablet. Sometimes I also get this burning feeling in my eyes. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and is there anything else I can do to help with the headaches and eye discomfort?

If you are experiencing blurring of vision along with this burning sensation in your eyes, it may be suggestive of a refractive error in your eyes. If you are a spectacle user, it may be time to change your spectacles. Otherwise you may be having migraine attacks. A proper evaluation is necessary to warrant the cause and appropriate a line of treatment.
