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?

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.

The simple reason could be that for some people food is a triggering factor of migraine.

I've been feeling really weird lately, like there's an earthquake happening just for me. Sometimes, it feels like someone's shaking my chair or bed while I'm trying to relax or sleep. I've also been experiencing random twitches, muscle spasms, and this strange internal trembling sensation. It's almost like these vibrations are somehow linked to my heartbeat. Every time my heart beats, it feels like there's an earthquake going on, especially when Im standing still. What could be going on with my body?

Query: I've been dealing with this nerve-pulling sensation in my legs, mainly my right thigh, and hip pain for over a year now. I've been taking Gabapin NT since it started and mixed it with a couple of other medications like Rejunex OD, Homin, and Pregabalin with Mecobalamin at different times. Recently, I've been also using Shelcal and Zincovit. I'm curious if there might be something else I can do about this or if there's a reason why it's not getting any better with the current treatment. What do you think?
Sudden Lower Back Pain: Emergency Guidance_ Given the sudden onset of severe lower back pain, radiating to your legs, and difficulty moving, it's essential to prioritize your health. Since it's been 2 hours, please consider the following steps: *Immediate Action* 1. *Call emergency services or seek immediate medical attention*: Visit the emergency room or urgent care if you haven't already. 2. *Rest and immobilize*: Avoid moving or bending, as this can exacerbate the injury. 3. *Apply ice (optional)*: If you're unable to seek medical attention immediately, apply ice to the affected area for 15-20 minutes to help reduce pain and inflammation. *Potential Causes* 1. *Herniated disk*: Sudden bending or lifting can cause a disk herniation, leading to pain and numbness in the legs. 2. *Muscle strain*: Overstretching or tearing of muscles in the lower back can cause severe pain and limited mobility. 3. *Other possible causes*: Kidney stones, spinal stenosis, or other underlying conditions may also contribute to your symptoms. *Medical Attention* A medical professional will assess your condition and provide a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
