My 78-year-old mom had a brain hemorrhage on the left side from high BP and has been unconscious for 12 days on a ventilator. The doctors said surgery isn't an option due to her condition and only a miracle can wake her up. What else can be done to help her?

View allMy dad's leg suddenly bends at the knee while he's just walking around, and it happens pretty often. There's no pain, which I guess is good, but it's still really worrying. Why does this happen, and should we be concerned?
It sounds like your father may be experiencing muscle weakness or instability in his knee. I would recommend he try using a knee brace for added support. Additionally, he can take a muscle relaxant like Flexeril to help with any muscle tension that may be contributing to the issue.

I'm dealing with this recurring swelling and pain near my occipital area, and I've been seeing a doctor for a while now, but there's still no clear diagnosis. Right now, I'm on some tablets they prescribed, but the relief is just temporary, and the swelling seems to pop up all the time. Could you suggest any other approaches or tests that might help pinpoint the problem and get it treated effectively?

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
