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've been really worried about my mom. She's had these frequent head pains for nearly 24 years now, and more recently, her feet have started burning for the past 3 years. We've already consulted several doctors, including a BHMS and a general physician, but its just getting increasingly unbearable for her. Could you give me some advice on what we should do next?

_Lycopodium for Premature Ejaculation, Erectile Dysfunction, and Sexual Anxiety_ Lycopodium, a homeopathic remedy, is sometimes used to address various sexual health concerns. Here's a summary of its potential effectiveness: _Premature Ejaculation (PE)_: 1. _Limited evidence_: There is limited scientific research on the effectiveness of Lycopodium for PE. 2. _Homeopathic studies_: Some homeopathic studies suggest that Lycopodium might help alleviate PE symptoms, but these findings are not conclusive. _Erectile Dysfunction (ED)_: 1. _No conclusive evidence_: There is no robust scientific evidence to support the use of Lycopodium for ED treatment. 2. _Potential benefits_: Some homeopathic practitioners believe that Lycopodium might help improve erectile function by addressing underlying psychological or emotional factors. _Sexual Anxiety and Over-Excitement_: 1. _Anxiety relief_: Lycopodium might help alleviate anxiety and nervousness related to sexual performance, as it is sometimes used to treat anxiety and stress in homeopathic medicine. 2. _Over-excitement_: The remedy might also help calm over-excitement or hypersensitivity, which can contribute to PE or ED. _Dosage and Treatment_: 1. _Typical dosage_: The typical homeopathic dosage for Lycopodium is 1-2 pellets (1-2 mg) taken sublingually (under the tongue) 2-3 times a day. 2. _Individualized treatment_: It's essential to consult a homeopathic practitioner or a healthcare professional to determine the best course of treatment for your specific concerns. _Important Notes_: 1. _Lycopodium is not a substitute for medical treatment_: If you experience persistent or severe sexual health concerns, consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. 2. _Interactions and side effects_: Lycopodium can interact with certain medications or exacerbate underlying health conditions. Monitor your symptoms and report any concerns to your healthcare provider.

My dad's leg suddenly bends at the knee while he's just walking around, and it happens pretty often. There's no pain, which I guess is good, but it's still really worrying. Why does this happen, and should we be concerned?

It sounds like your father may be experiencing muscle weakness or instability in his knee. I would recommend he try using a knee brace for added support. Additionally, he can take a muscle relaxant like Flexeril to help with any muscle tension that may be contributing to the issue.
