I'm really worried about my 66-year-old mom. She has epilepsy and she's been having this shortness of breath like asthma, along with a bad cough and cold. I was wondering if she could take deriphyllin along with ascoril expectorant syrup? Just want to make sure it's safe for her.

For almost two weeks now, I've been having trouble with my balance. It's making it hard for me to work. Whenever I move, I feel like my head gets heavy or light, and sometimes it's even like everything's spinning. Walking is really tough because I can't stay steady. I went to see an ENT doctor and took the medication they gave me for five days, but nothing's changed. How long does it usually take for these symptoms to go away, or do you think it could be something more than an ENT issue? I'm worried because this is affecting my job too. What should I do next?

That needs evaluation like ct brain and sr electrolytes,visit neuro physician for the same and appropriate management

I'm experiencing some numbness in my hands that's been going on for the past 2 to 3 months. It seems to happen when I'm doing my regular activities like lifting a bag or sometimes even when I wake up from sleep. I never had this issue before, and it's starting to concern me. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
