What should I do about this pain? Can we meet to discuss treatment options? I really need to find a way to get rid of it. Right now, I can only sleep when I take Maxgalin to ease the pain, but I'm worried about how long I should keep using it.

You can take Maxgalin for pain relief for as long as your doctor prescribes it. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment. Maxgalin is commonly prescribed for neuropathic pain and the dosage can vary depending on the severity of your pain. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

My dad's 80 and he had a mild ischemic stroke and mis last year. Since then, he's been using a duolin nebulizer regularly. I'm wondering if it's safe for him to keep taking it every day?

Given your father's history of ischemic stroke and MIS, continuing Duolin nebulizer therapy may be appropriate if prescribed by his doctor to manage his breathing or airway issues. However, it's important to regularly reassess his condition with his healthcare provider to ensure it's still necessary and to adjust treatment if needed.

I've been dealing with this issue for 34 years now, and I'm getting pretty concerned. Whenever I put my head into the air, whether it's day or night, I get an instant headache. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm wondering what I can do about this. Any advice would be really appreciated.

It sounds like you're experiencing a sensitivity to changes in position, which could be related to tension or a posture issue. Try gentle neck stretches, maintaining good posture, and consider seeing a doctor for a proper diagnosis to rule out any underlying conditions.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's been feeling this odd sensation and burning in her left leg, specifically between the knee and thigh. I was doing some reading online and it seems really similar to something called Meralgia Paraesthetica. This all started after she had laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder stones back in October 2016. It's not always there, but when it does show up, it seems to be happening more often now. I'm really hoping for some advice on how we could help her feel better. Should we be seeing a certain type of doctor for this?

The symptoms your mother describes could indeed align with **Meralgia Paresthetica**, which occurs due to compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. I recommend consulting a **neurologist** for a detailed evaluation. In the meantime, measures like avoiding tight clothing, maintaining a healthy weight, and physical therapy may help alleviate symptoms.
