My wife has been dealing with TB Meningitis for the last two years. She completed the TB medication course, but she's still struggling with a lot of neural and back pain. An MRI showed signs of myelitis and some changes in her spinal cord, which has us really concerned. The doctors say that while the TB bacteria is gone, the damage might be beyond repair and her chances of recovery are slim at best. They've recommended physiotherapy and visiting pain management centers for her current pain. For about a year and a half, shes been on Gabapin 300 and Gabantip AT. Can you suggest any pain management centers, or maybe share your thoughts on any potential for recovery?

I'm experiencing numbness during the night in my pinky and ring finger on my left hand. It's been happening for the last couple of months, almost 5 to 6 times a week, and I'm not sure if it's due to the way I'm sleeping or another health issue. Any idea what might be going on?

The red dots on your penis head could be caused by various factors, such as: Fordyce spots (benign, small bumps) Pearly penile papules (small, harmless growths) Folliculitis (inflammation of hair follicles) Since you're experiencing minimal itching, it's likely not a serious condition. Consult a dermatologist or a urologist for a proper examination and diagnosis. Avoid scratching or popping the bumps, as this can lead to infection or scarring.

I'm really worried because he's been having these severe headaches, almost like migraines, for the past 2 to 3 years. They often come with vomiting too. Could you suggest any medication that might help or recommend some tests we should consider? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
