View allI'm experiencing this intense headache that seems to start from the back on the left side of my head, but it only happens during orgasm. There's no lingering effect afterward, and everything else like my diet and sleep is normal. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm curious about what might be causing this. Any idea what could be going on?
It sounds like the headache could be related to a tension or vascular response triggered during orgasm. While it's not uncommon for certain activities to cause temporary discomfort, if this continues, I recommend consulting with a doctor to rule out any underlying neurological issues. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper sleep, hydration, and stress management is important.

I'm having this issue with numbness on the left side of my cheeks that's been going on for about four months now. We've been to different hospitals, both for eye and dental check-ups, and everything seemed fine there. Then, we visited a general medicine doctor at Apollo, who suggested I take Gabantin every evening and get a Methylcobalamin injection weekly. After a week of that treatment, things felt better, and I didn't have any symptoms for a month. But now, the numbness is back, and it's been bothering me for the last two weeks. Do you think seeing a neurologist would be the right step to take next? I'm just not sure who to turn to at this point. Any advice would be really appreciated!

I'm really concerned about whether this condition can be cured permanently or if it's something that might come back. And I'm also wondering about fit attackscan they be completely cured, or is there a chance they'll recur?
While there is no definitive permanent cure for Epilepsy at this time, there is an opportunity for those living with Epilepsy. By understanding the issues and the potential solutions for an effective treatment, we can pursue a path to a future in which Epilepsy will no longer be an issue that lasts for a lifetime. Despite these difficulties, Researchers are looking for ways to find an effective cure. Some of the research areas include: Gen therapy is changing genes to treat seizures caused by abnormalities. Stem cell therapy uses the stem cell to restore damaged cells within the brain and restore function. Neurostimulation employs devices for stimulating the brain and reducing seizures.
