My mom has been feeling something really strange lately, like there's a movement on the left side of her head, almost like something's crawling inside. It's making her itch a lot, and we're not sure what to do. She's now feeling this crawling sensation in her thigh and arm too, but it happens more often in her head. She's been taking medicine for weak veins, and I'm worried if this is something serious. Can you guide us on who we should consult for this?

It sounds like your mother is experiencing unusual sensations, possibly related to nerve or circulation issues, especially with her history of weak veins. Its important to consult a neurologist or a vascular specialist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. While it may not be dangerous, it's best to get it checked to rule out any serious conditions.

View allI'm really worried because two days ago, my sister suddenly passed out and had a really bad headache for about 30 minutes. She's not diabetic or dealing with blood pressure issues, so it was totally unexpected, and now I'm just trying to figure out what could have caused it. Any ideas on what might be going on?

I'm dealing with a burning sensation all over my body and it feels like nerve pain, with pins and needles, and sometimes it feels like a heat wave inside. I've also got nerve pain in my jaw. I've been told I might have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome by one doctor in NZ, and a neurologist mentioned Central Pain Syndrome. I'm really concerned and a bit confused about these diagnoses. Could you explain what they mean and how they differ? Also, what can I do to manage or reduce these symptoms?
Approximately 80% of patients with CRPS type I achieve complete, spontaneous relief of signs and symptoms within 18 months; however, no diagnostic criteria have been shown to predict which patients will fall into this category. Some of the patients whose symptoms do not resolve spontaneously may still be cured by treatment. Of the patients who develop refractory CRPS type I, 50-80% have disability secondary to pain andor a limited range of motion. The main disabilities are limitations in their activities of daily living (ADL).
