I've been having this weird cold sensation in my head, like trickling water, for two days now. On top of that, I've been getting these mild headaches every so often over the past few days. I'm a bit worried about the cold feeling in my head. What do you think I should do?

Could be a sinus infection. I recommend taking a decongestant like Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) 30mg every 4-6 hours to help with the congestion and cold sensation in your head. Additionally, you can take a pain reliever like Tylenol (acetaminophen) 500mg every 6 hours for the headache. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

My mom has been feeling a burning sensation all over her body, especially on her back, legs, stomach, and face. I'm concerned because there aren't any rashes or signs of an allergy. Should I take her to a dermatologist or a neurologist?

-It sounds like your mom's symptoms could be related to nerve irritation or other underlying issues, so it's a good idea to start with a neurologist. They can help diagnose if it's related to nerve conditions like neuropathy or other neurological concerns

I've been dealing with essential tremor and anxiety for the last 2 years along with constant head shaking. The medications I'm taking don't seem to help at all. Are there any short-term treatments or surgical options available for this condition and what would the approximate cost be

For persistent, medication-resistant essential tremor with head shaking and anxiety, consider short-term treatments like botulinum toxin injections or anxiety-reducing medications like benzodiazepines. Surgical options include deep brain stimulation (DBS) and focused ultrasound thalamotomy. The cost of these treatments varies widely, but DBS is generally in the range of $50,000 to $150,000.
