My mom has been dealing with nerve issues for a long time and can't walk without my dad's support she holds his shoulder to move around. Doctors haven't been able to help, and one even suggested surgery with a 95% failure rate. She's lost all confidence and now struggles with uncontrollable bowel movements and urine, so she barely leaves the house. Even at night, she often falls when rushing to the bathroom, and we have to help her up. Recently, she fell badly and cut her lip. It's heartbreaking to see her suffer like this. Are there any treatments or specialists who could help her walk again or at least improve her condition? Her reports show nerve damage, but we're not sure what else to try.

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.

My dad had a paralysis attack a few days ago and they've found a brain clot because his BP was super high, up at 212. He's paralyzed now, can't speak, and his right hand isn't working. He's in the hospital, but I'm really worried if this is going to be his reality forever or if there's a chance he could recover and lead a normal life again. What can we do to help his recovery? I've got his MRI reports too, but I can only send one image due to app restrictions. What should our next steps be?
