See a doctor: Information is too limited to make a suggested diagnosis.

Question 2

can c5-c5 thecal sac indention cause right arm pain, weakness & the hand to be frozen cold? can it cause constant dizziness & balance issues headaches

Accepted Answer

Insufficent data: Please repost: Are you referring to an MRI? If so, please state. Do you mean "indentation"? If so, indentation by what? Indentation of the thecal sac by itself is only an incidental finding. What is indenting it is what's important. Also, you posted "C5-C5." Do you mean C4-C5 or C5-C6? Please also state how the doctor who ordered the test answered your question; or, if you haven't asked, why not.

Question 3

i feel tingles, some weakness & pain in right arm;pain in neck &some headaches;weight loss & plugged ear.could it be brain tumor? i've tmj and anxiety

Accepted Answer

Pain in arm or neck: Not likely to get pain in the arm or neck from a brain tumor without having signs of brain stem dysfunction.  There are other conditions that need to be considered. Chiari malformation can produce tingling in neck and shoulders with headaches. You might have a couple of unrelated problems producing a confusing clinical picture. (separate neck and ear problem). A good examination might be in order.

Question 4

what causes facial tingling, arm pain and headache on the left side?

Accepted Answer

See below: Symptoms such as this suggest a possible neurological condition. A neurologist would be the best type of doctor to see for these symptoms.  This should be dealt with sooner rather than later.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Should not: Normally there should not be any problems with the picc line when it's in or when it's taken out.  Sometimes we do see problems such as infection, small skin nerve injuries, blood clots.  Best to have it checked!

Question 9

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: See your primary doctor today; if that will not work go to urgent care or even emergency room. Depending on your complete story and examination, further testing may be necessary to sort out your problems.
