MRI shows a type 2 AICA loop in my left ear causing vertigo. I've tried multiple treatments but nothing helps. Is surgery an option to remove the loop, and how complex would it be?

What should I do about this pain? Can we meet to discuss treatment options? I really need to find a way to get rid of it. Right now, I can only sleep when I take Maxgalin to ease the pain, but I'm worried about how long I should keep using it.
You can take Maxgalin for pain relief for as long as your doctor prescribes it. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment. Maxgalin is commonly prescribed for neuropathic pain and the dosage can vary depending on the severity of your pain.

I've been experiencing this weird thing where if I shake my head really hard, I feel this sharp pain on the left side. It's strange because it doesn't happen any other time, just when I do this. Should I be worried about it? Any idea what could be causing this?
That could be Sinusitis,or muscle pain, no need to worry, visit General physician for evaluation and appropriate management
