I've noticed this weird dent at the top of my skull, like where a baby's soft spot would be, and I'm not sure how long it's been there. It's a little tender if I press on it, but not really painful. I haven't had any serious head injuries, just the usual bumps. Do you think this is something that could just develop over time, or should I be worried about it?

A soft spot in the skull or fontanelle is a normal feature for babies, but unusual for adults. If you are experiencing tenderness in that area, it may be worth getting it checked by a healthcare professional.

View allI'm experiencing this weird falling sensation while walking, and it's been going on for about three years now. Along with this, I feel severe anxiety, panic, and stomach discomfort, and I often get dizzy and a bit giddy. Sometimes it even feels like someone is pushing my head forward. It's really gotten to the point where I'm scared to go anywhere because of how uncomfortable all of this is. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on and how I can get rid of these feelings?

I've been dealing with some ongoing symptoms like forehead pressure, left nose to jaw pressure, and left eye heaviness. My ENT doctor did a CT scan and found a deviated nasal septum, suggesting surgery might help. But then a neurologist prescribed amixide h tablets, which give me relief while I'm taking them the symptoms come back when I stop. I'm really confused could this be a septum issue or maybe something nerve-related? Would love to hear your thoughts on what might be going on.
Your symptoms may be nerve-related if meds help—consider neuro-ENT or imaging re-evaluation.
