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

I'm having this weird tingling sensation in my left eye, almost like when you feel a pulse or beat in a nerve. My eyelids twitch a bit when it happens too. It's been going on for about 45 days now. I'm wondering if this might be what we call "aankh fadakna" in Hindi. What could be causing this?

This sensation you are experiencing in your left eye, known as eyelid twitching or myokymia, is usually benign and can be caused by stress, fatigue, caffeine, or eye strain. To help alleviate this symptom, you can try using lubricating eye drops and practicing stress-relief techniques. Additionally, you can take a supplement containing magnesium to help relax the muscles.
