So I've been dealing with these migraine headaches lately, and my doctor told me to use Naxdom 500 only when I actually have a headache. But here's the thingI've been taking it twice a day for the past three days because the headaches just won't quit. Should I have been sticking to just once a day, or am I handling this the right way? It just feels like they're not going away.

Naxdom-500, containing Naproxen, is typically prescribed for migraine headaches as needed, with a usual dosage of 1-2 tablets (500mg) per day, but not exceeding 1250mg in 24 hours.

I've been working in a pharmaceutical industry for 29 years, and recently, due to my morning shifts, I'm only getting about 5-6 hours of sleep. Last night, out of nowhere, I fainted. It all started with feeling lightheaded, stiff, and shaky, my eyes even rolled up, and I was sweating a lot. I called my husband just before I lost consciousness, and I don't remember anything for a few seconds. He kind of shook me, and everything felt like it was spinning. After a bit, I got stable and then ended up puking everything out. This whole thing has me really worried. Could this be something serious?

Lately, I've been noticing a pin-pricking sensation on the upper part of my right-hand ring finger, and it tends to happen more frequently in the evenings. It's getting a bit concerning, and I'm wondering what might be causing it. Should I be worried or is there something I should be doing to alleviate it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a sensation of tingling or pins and needles in your ring finger. This can be caused by pressure on nerves, poor circulation, or even repetitive use of the hand. If the sensation persists or worsens, it's a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out conditions like nerve compression or carpal tunnel syndrome.
