Question 1

Where do Migraine hurt?

Accepted Answer

Pain usually on one side of your head, but often on both sides. Pain that throbs or pulses. Sensitivity to light, sound, and sometimes smell and touch.

Question 2

I'm having this issue with numbness on the left side of my cheeks that's been going on for about four months now. We've been to different hospitals, both for eye and dental check-ups, and everything seemed fine there. Then, we visited a general medicine doctor at Apollo, who suggested I take Gabantin every evening and get a Methylcobalamin injection weekly. After a week of that treatment, things felt better, and I didn't have any symptoms for a month. But now, the numbness is back, and it's been bothering me for the last two weeks. Do you think seeing a neurologist would be the right step to take next? I'm just not sure who to turn to at this point. Any advice would be really appreciated!

Question 3

I've been having tingling and pins and needles in both hands along with numbness. Got an NCV test done for both upper limbs and currently taking Tab Gabapin 300 twice daily and Tab Rejunex once daily. Wanted to know if continuing medicines would help or if surgery might be a better option for this condition

Accepted Answer

conservative tt is advised ,if symptoms are still persisting a neurologist opinion is advised to the patient.
