I'm really concerned because my hands seem to shake a lot, especially when I raise them or even when I'm just trying to drink some water. Could this be a sign of weakness or is there something else going on? What should I do about it?
Shaking hands (tremors) can be due to various causes, including weakness, stress, or even essential tremors. It's best to see a doctor to rule out issues like vitamin deficiencies, thyroid problems, or neurological conditions. Don't worry; many causes are treatable!

I've been experiencing this persistent pain above my eyebrows and it's really starting to worry me. I'm not sure what's causing it or how I should go about treating it. Can you help explain what might be going on and what steps I should take to feel better?
Pain above the eyebrows can be due to various reasons such as tension headaches, sinusitis, or eye strain. To treat it, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, applying a cold compress to the area can help reduce inflammation and pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
