Ive been experiencing this weird sensation where it feels like my head and body are moving even when Im lying down. Sometimes I feel out of balance when Im walking, too. What could be causing this? It's starting to worry me a bit.

You may be experiencing a condition known as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) or a vestibular balance disorder, characterized by sensations of movement, spinning, or loss of balance, especially when lying down or changing positions; other possible causes include inner ear problems, migraines, or anxiety, so consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist

View allI'm having this issue with numbness on the left side of my cheeks that's been going on for about four months now. We've been to different hospitals, both for eye and dental check-ups, and everything seemed fine there. Then, we visited a general medicine doctor at Apollo, who suggested I take Gabantin every evening and get a Methylcobalamin injection weekly. After a week of that treatment, things felt better, and I didn't have any symptoms for a month. But now, the numbness is back, and it's been bothering me for the last two weeks. Do you think seeing a neurologist would be the right step to take next? I'm just not sure who to turn to at this point. Any advice would be really appreciated!

I got hit pretty hard on the left side of my head, right by my ear, and I've had a lot of pain. It even started bleeding, and it's still going on. The pain's not as bad now, but I'm feeling really dizzy when I'm just doing normal stuff. Is this something I should be really worried about? What should I do next?
The severe pain, bleeding, and dizziness after a heavy slap on the head near the ear suggest a possible temporal bone fracture, middle ear injury, or inner ear damage; the persistent bleeding from the ear is a concerning symptom that requires immediate medical attention; seek emergency care from an ENT specialist or a neurosurgeon to evaluate and manage potential complications, such as a cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leak, meningitis, or hearing loss.
