I've been having sharp, stabbing headaches radiating up my neck and into the bottom of my skull for a couple of months(which was exacerbated when I went on a vacation and did lots of hiking). they do tend to come on with physical exertion. However, when I brought it up with my doctor she said it was probably anxiety and to do breathing exercises 🙁 that always feels so dismissive to me. I know that obviously mental and emotional states can alter our physical state, but it is frustrating to me when I feel very real and very painful things but it's just "anxiety", even though this is the least anxious I have been in literally years.
I’ve been drinking a pot of coffee a day for years, prolly over two decades, maybe closer to three. Some days I had two. No soda pop for even longer. Until recently…and only non-caffeine/calorie. No medical issues to complain or question about. Just putting it out there.
Okay, so this is a question I've had forever, and my biology teachers never could really explain it to me. Is there a reason why if the mom has no rhesu, let's say A neg, but the baby is B pos, why does that cause a problem, but the A and B bloodtype difference isn't a problem? There's antibodies for the B-blood as well in the mother, so why doesn't it cause the same issues you do with a negative-positive bloodtype difference?
I was going to say laryngoeosophageal reflux , and DR.Mike said it . It's very common these days, especially in India. Even more than post nasal drip. Due to life style and dietary factors
So my eyelid twitches sometimes, it usually seems random, sometimes during physical activities like marching band, or sometimes just in class. Sometimes it lasts a long time, then goes away, or it lasts for short, repetitive bursts.
Sometimes after I get up in the morning if I pull my shoulders forward I feel a tightness and aching in my chest that lasts a minute or so is this normal
That post nasal drip thing happens to me literally 24/7 and it's so fucking annoying. I'm constantly trying to get rid of the mucus in throat, even in public, and to other people it looks fucking gross but I just can't help it.
About the sore throat, it could also be allergy. That's what happens to me. People think I'm sick and contagious while all I have is an allergic reaction lol
So I recently started a new job that I love. 90% less stressful than my previous job. But I've been experiencing a lot of neck pain and numbness on the back of my neck and head. I also feel like I want to crack my neck all the time. Should I go to a chiropractor or my primary care doctor first?
What if you 17 and your parents haven't taken you to the doctor in years and likely won't and you now once your of age you definitely won't have the money to see a doctor… 😓😐 my arms and legs are constantly going numb, along with being fatigued, and occasionally lightheaded… so I'm kinda just hoping all will be okay at this point
It annoys me when non-medical people think that coffee stunts the growth of kids and teens? Surely this is not factual. This is believed because coffee has a half life of 6 hours, and can be in your system up to 12 hours, if you drink it within 12 hours of going to sleep, you may have trouble falling asleep and remaining asleep – most importantly, REM sleep can not be achieved as sufficiently. With less REM sleep, the less time your body has to grow and develop.
Hey Mike. I sprained my ankle a couple of months back, and while most of the pain is gone, i am suffering from some reduced movement and pain when reaching the edges of my range of motion or in very certain angles. Is this something i should check up with a doctor or is it just slow healing?
I can control those muscles near the ears without chewing, unclogging my own ears with varying success depending on how clogged it is. Am I the only one?
My mom used to give me her left over coffee when I was 7 ever since it kinda stuck. Now at age 15 I have around 6-7 cups of coffee a day. I tried to stop but I felt rlly sick. I’m not tryna go to a doctor and tell him bro I’m addicted to coffee. Is there any way to get rid of this issue?

Sometimes after grueling exercise, my limbs twitch or spasm, idk why.

Why are my nails bending so easily and flaking? And they itch under the nail a lot. Why is this?

I consume 6 cold coffee cans a day . Every day . I guess I am killing myself in a very brilliant way 🤣
