I've been experiencing a really sharp pain on the left side of my neck that feels like being poked with a big needle. It's been going on for a few days now. Should I be worried? What could be causing this?

Considering your symptoms and test results, it's possible that your chest pain is related to:

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Esophageal spasm Musculoskeletal issue

Consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and treatment.

They may recommend additional tests, such as an endoscopy or pH monitoring.

In the meantime, continue with the antiacid and anti-gas medications as prescribed.

I've been dealing with dizziness for a while now, like it started some years ago and it's happening again. I'm really worried about why this dizziness keeps coming back. Do you think it could be something serious? What should I do to figure out what's going on?

Recurring dizziness may indicate an underlying condition, such as inner ear problems (e.g., benign paroxysmal positional vertigo), migraines, or vestibular issues; consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a neurologist to rule out any underlying conditions and develop a treatment plan to manage your symptoms.

I'm experiencing headaches frequently and I'm really worried. I already visited an ENT doctor, but the headaches keep coming back. What could be causing them and should I see a different specialist?

Headaches can have various causes, including stress, dehydration, eye strain, or even underlying medical conditions. For relief, you can try taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for headache. Make sure to stay hydrated, practice good posture, and manage stress levels. If the headaches persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with your primary care physician for further evaluation and management.

My friend's been having this weird issue with her eyes flickering and randomly shutting for around 30 seconds, and its been going on for over 6 months. She uses reading glasses but her prescription hasn't changed. The neuro psychiatrist we saw prescribed serta, etilaam, and arpizol for 10 days, but it hasn't really made any difference. What do you recommend we do next?
