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 noticing I've had poor blood circulation for about a week now. When I keep my hands raised for just a few seconds, they start tingling and getting numb. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should consult for this? Is it related to a nerve problem? Which medical specialty would this fall under?

I'm experiencing this weird falling sensation while walking, and it's been going on for about three years now. Along with this, I feel severe anxiety, panic, and stomach discomfort, and I often get dizzy and a bit giddy. Sometimes it even feels like someone is pushing my head forward. It's really gotten to the point where I'm scared to go anywhere because of how uncomfortable all of this is. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on and how I can get rid of these feelings?

My friend had a bike accident 8 months ago and got a brain injury with a blood clot. Even though the clot got better, he still has memory and behavior problems and is on medication. Now he's been diagnosed with a fistula and needs surgery. Is it safe to try homeopathy for the fistula while he's still taking his brain injury meds?
Homeopathy is not recommended for fistulas with history of trauma—best to go with surgical correction after neuro clearance.
