View allI've been dealing with this weird tingling pain in my fingers and arms on both hands for the last 3.5 months now. It all started out of nowhere after I had some saline in my left arm. On top of that, my stomach constantly feels bloated, and I'm having these strange palpitations in my stomach and throat area. It's really starting to worry me. Any idea what might be going on or what I could try to feel better?
The symptoms you are experiencing, such as tingling pain in fingers and arms, bloating, palpitations, and sensations in the stomach and throat, could be related to nerve issues or underlying medical conditions. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis. However, to alleviate the symptoms, you can try taking Vitamin B complex supplements like Neurobion Forte once a day for nerve health. Additionally, you can take Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to help with bloating and stomach discomfort. Make sure to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been having this weird sensation where my left cheek and eye nerve keep twitching. It's been going on for a few days now, and I'm starting to get a little worried. Could this be something serious, or is it usually not that big of a deal? What might be causing this?

My mom has been feeling something really strange lately, like there's a movement on the left side of her head, almost like something's crawling inside. It's making her itch a lot, and we're not sure what to do. She's now feeling this crawling sensation in her thigh and arm too, but it happens more often in her head. She's been taking medicine for weak veins, and I'm worried if this is something serious. Can you guide us on who we should consult for this?
It sounds like your mother is experiencing unusual sensations, possibly related to nerve or circulation issues, especially with her history of weak veins. Its important to consult a neurologist or a vascular specialist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment. While it may not be dangerous, it's best to get it checked to rule out any serious conditions.
