I've been feeling this heaviness in my right cheek and I'm not sure why. I also have neck pain and sometimes a bit of pain in my head. It's making me feel really anxious. I occasionally get this weird sensation on my lips where it feels like palpitations, usually once or twice a month. I'm confused about which type of doctor I should reach out to. Any ideas on what could be going on?

View allI've been diagnosed with a slipped disc at L4 L5 S1 and have a lot of pain, especially shooting down my left leg. My doctor prescribed neorelax mr 8, gabanuron od, and gemcal along with exercises twice a day and ice packs. Will this treatment actually help me recover or should I consider surgery for this issue
Slip disc treatment with medications and physiotherapy may help; surgery is for cases with severe nerve compression or no improvement after 6–8 weeks.

I'm having this issue where every time I open my mouth, I feel this sharp pain on the side of my head. It just started a few days ago, and I usually study till 3 AM every night. Do you think my late nights could be causing this? The pain is right around the head, where the top of the ear is, but it's definitely the head and not the ear. Stretching my mouth or moving it in weird ways also triggers the pain. What could be causing this, and is there anything I should do about it?
The pain on the side of your head when opening your mouth could be related to several factors, including: *Possible Causes* 1. *Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorder*: The TMJ connects the jawbone to the skull. Late-night studying and irregular sleep patterns might have triggered TMJ strain, leading to pain on the side of your head. 2. *Tension and Stress*: Prolonged studying and lack of sleep can cause muscle tension, leading to pain in the head and neck region. 3. *Jaw Misalignment or Bruxism*: Grinding or clenching your teeth during sleep or due to stress might have caused jaw misalignment, leading to pain on the side of your head. *What to Do* 1. *Apply Heat or Cold Packs*: Apply a warm or cold compress to the affected area to relax the muscles and reduce pain. 2. *Practice Relaxation Techniques*: Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga to manage tension and stress. 3. *Improve Your Sleep Habits*: Establish a regular sleep schedule, avoiding late-night studying and ensuring 7-8 hours of sleep each night. 4. *Jaw Exercises*: Perform simple jaw exercises like opening your mouth wide, moving your jaw from side to side, and massaging your temples to relax the jaw muscles.
