I've been having these weird episodes where I stand up and suddenly feel really dizzy and lightheaded. My vision goes a bit blurry, and I lose my balance to the point where I almost fall over. It's pretty scary. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?

I'm dealing with vertigo and recently visited a Patanjali Arogya Kendra. The doctor there prescribed me divya mukta vati extra power, arjunarist syrup, protiking malt, and sperimed capsules. I'm a bit worried if this is the right treatment for my vertigo. Also, my blood pressure was measured at 110150. Should I be concerned about this? Any advice would really help!

I'm feeling some tightness in a portion of my head, just above my left ear, and it's been going on for about a year now. When I massage that area, it seems to relax. I'm a bit concerned and wondering what might be causing this. Could it be something I should look into further?

The tightness you're feeling above your left ear could be related to muscle tension, stress, or even a tension headache, especially since massaging the area provides relief. However, if the sensation persists or worsens, or if other concerning symptoms arise, its a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment.

I'm a bit concerned because my lips and tongue have started feeling numb and tingly whenever I smoke. It happened a couple of days ago and I just brushed it off, but it happened again today. Should I be worried about this?
