Question 1

Can you tell me if a cervical disc bulge can be treated without surgery based on my MRI report I'm really worried about going under the knife and want to explore other options first

Accepted Answer

Cervical epidural injections are a well-established non-surgical treatment for C5-C6 disc bulge. They involve the injection of corticosteroids directly into the epidural space near the affected nerve roots. These injections provide both diagnostic and therapeutic benefits.

Question 2

I've been noticing that I only feel dizzy when I sneeze, and it's something that's happened several times in the past. But today, it got really bothersome because after a sneeze, I actually lost my balance and fell down. Is there any medicine or solution that could help with this?

Accepted Answer

This sounds like a case of vasovagal syncope, where sneezing triggers a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure, leading to dizziness and fainting. Medication such as Fludrocortisone can help increase blood volume and reduce the likelihood of fainting episodes triggered by sneezing. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

Question 3

Why am I so forgetful and absent minded?

Accepted Answer

I've been diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia and my neurologist prescribed meds along with blood tests and a brain MRI. From what I've read, allopathy doesn't offer a permanent cure and surgery seems complicated. Can Ayurveda actually help treat this condition long-term?

BAMS opinion is advised to the pt.
