My mom's been dealing with this super sharp, electric-like pain in her right hand that kicks in every time she coughs. It seems to start at her elbows and then just shoots down to her wrists. She's just getting over pneumonia and has been coughing pretty hard. I'm really worried and wondering what might be causing this hand pain whenever she has these coughing fits. Could it be related to her recent illness or something else?

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She's been having this frequent pain in her right eye, and her vision isn't great according to the doctor. Plus, she has pain in her right arm and sometimes her leg. I've noticed that whenever she's stressed out or has been crying, these pains, especially in her eye, head, and arm, seem to get worse. For instance, after my brother-in-law passed away due to COVID, she was very stressed and the pain got severe. Even small things, like me not bringing home vegetables in time, seem to stress her out and increase her pain. On top of that, when she's really stressed, she complains about a headache, breathlessness, and pain in the center of her chest. Her ECG and blood tests came back fine, so I'm unsure about what's causing all this. Could this be psychological, or is there a possibility of an underlying heart condition? Any advice on what steps we should take next?
It sounds like your wife may be experiencing symptoms of stress-induced tension and anxiety, which can manifest as physical pain in various parts of the body. The headaches, eye pain, arm pain, and leg pain that she is experiencing could be related to stress and emotional distress. The fact that these symptoms worsen after stressful events or crying episodes further supports this idea. Additionally, the chest pain and breathlessness she experiences during periods of high stress could be due to anxiety and not necessarily a cardiac issue, especially since her ECG and blood reports came back normal. To help manage her symptoms, I recommend considering a combination of stress-reducing techniques and medications. For stress and anxiety relief, she can try practices such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, yoga, or mindfulness techniques. In terms of medication, she can benefit from an anxiolytic medication like alprazolam (Xanax) to help alleviate acute symptoms of anxiety and stress. For headache relief, she can take acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed, following the recommended dosage instructions. It's important to address the underlying stress and emotional triggers to prevent the recurrence of these symptoms. Encouraging open communication, seeking support from a therapist or counselor, and practicing self-care activities can also be beneficial for her overall well-being.

My vision has been blurry and I've had this terrible headache that won't go away. Sometimes my speech slurs and I feel a bit out of it like I might pass out. Could this be because blood flow to the nerves in my brain is blocked? Would I need surgery for this?
Common causes of blurry vision and headaches are migraines, eyestrain, and other correctable vision issues. Examples of emergency causes include a stroke, dangerously low blood sugar, traumatic brain injury, and carbon monoxide poisoning
