My vision has been blurry and I've had this terrible headache that won't go away. Sometimes my speech slurs and I feel a bit out of it like I might pass out. Could this be because blood flow to the nerves in my brain is blocked? Would I need surgery for this?

Common causes of blurry vision and headaches are migraines, eyestrain, and other correctable vision issues. Examples of emergency causes include a stroke, dangerously low blood sugar, traumatic brain injury, and carbon monoxide poisoning

I've been dealing with burning sensations in my soles for about 4 to 5 years, and I often feel really exhausted. I'm worried because I've also noticed other things like a layer on my tongue when I wake up, losing hair, difficulty focusing, occasional dizziness, and memory issues. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I might do about it?

My father is 62 and has trouble walking his leg below the knee goes numb, and he has to stop for 10-12 minutes before he can walk again. A neurosurgeon recommended surgery, but he doesn't want to go through with it. He's been taking Neurobin Forte and finds it helpful, but is there a more effective tablet or medicine that can manage his pain and symptoms without surgery? The MRI report shows some issues, but he's hesitant about an operation. What else can we try?

It's understandable that your father is hesitant about surgery. While Neurobin Forte might offer some relief, other medications and therapies may be explored to manage his symptoms without surgery. Focusing on pain management, improving blood flow, and managing nerve compression, with a multi-pronged approach, can be helpful.
