Why does my head feel heavy and dizzy?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Common ones include tension headaches, conditions that affect the sinuses, and ear infections. Abnormal or severe head pressure is sometimes a sign of a serious medical condition, such as a brain tumor or aneurysm.

Query: I've been dealing with this nerve-pulling sensation in my legs, mainly my right thigh, and hip pain for over a year now. I've been taking Gabapin NT since it started and mixed it with a couple of other medications like Rejunex OD, Homin, and Pregabalin with Mecobalamin at different times. Recently, I've been also using Shelcal and Zincovit. I'm curious if there might be something else I can do about this or if there's a reason why it's not getting any better with the current treatment. What do you think?

Sudden Lower Back Pain: Emergency Guidance_ Given the sudden onset of severe lower back pain, radiating to your legs, and difficulty moving, it's essential to prioritize your health. Since it's been 2 hours, please consider the following steps: *Immediate Action* 1. *Call emergency services or seek immediate medical attention*: Visit the emergency room or urgent care if you haven't already. 2. *Rest and immobilize*: Avoid moving or bending, as this can exacerbate the injury. 3. *Apply ice (optional)*: If you're unable to seek medical attention immediately, apply ice to the affected area for 15-20 minutes to help reduce pain and inflammation. *Potential Causes* 1. *Herniated disk*: Sudden bending or lifting can cause a disk herniation, leading to pain and numbness in the legs. 2. *Muscle strain*: Overstretching or tearing of muscles in the lower back can cause severe pain and limited mobility. 3. *Other possible causes*: Kidney stones, spinal stenosis, or other underlying conditions may also contribute to your symptoms. *Medical Attention* A medical professional will assess your condition and provide a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Be prepared to provide detailed information about your symptoms, medical history, and any previous injuries or conditions.

I've been dealing with this constant headache that kicks in every evening. It doesn't just stay in one place; the pain kind of migrates from my head to my neck and shoulders. On top of that, every morning, I'm waking up with a burning sensation in my feet. It's starting to really worry me. Any idea what might be going on or how I can tackle this?
