hydrocephalus is a condition in which the fluid in the brain increases so much so that it presses on the brain tissue. if the pressure keeps on increasing, a lot can go wrong. the increase in the fluid can be due to over production or due to inefficient drainage. the only available treatment is by shunting which is done by surgery by inserting a shunt. you should undergo surgery ASAP. to avoid complications. no other treatment is available in any form of medicine.

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

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

My dad's leg suddenly bends at the knee while he's just walking around, and it happens pretty often. There's no pain, which I guess is good, but it's still really worrying. Why does this happen, and should we be concerned?

It sounds like your father may be experiencing muscle weakness or instability in his knee. I would recommend he try using a knee brace for added support. Additionally, he can take a muscle relaxant like Flexeril to help with any muscle tension that may be contributing to the issue.
