Question

4 months having pins pain tingling dizziness and numbness all over body. Now have vibration in my left ankle and burning sensation in lower back. I noticed it gets worse when i turn my head/back down?

Answer 1

Neuropathy symptpms: SNF is small fiber neuropathy, I presume, which has many causes. Metabolic problems may result in myoclonus (or body jerks) and be associated with neuropathy. I would recommend blood tests (such as HgA1c, TSH, CMP, vitamin b12 levels) and a neurology evaluation. Dizziness with head turning can be caused by inner ear or vestibular problems and also needs bedside exam to help assess.

Answer 2

Possible infection: Swollen glands are almost always a sign of infection. Fatigue, appetite loss, and headache are all non-specific symptoms that can also be related to infection. This should be evaluated by a physician.

Answer 3

Itchy: Causes of itchy eyes include allergy and blepharitis, an inflammation of the eyelid margin caused by certain bacteria. It is reasonable to try over-the-counter allergy drops such as zaditor (ketotifen). The swollen glands suggest infection of some sort-- discuss things with your primary doctor if you are not feeling better within 24-48 hours.

Answer 4

Watery eyes: Sounds like you have a viral illness. Take an over-the-counter decongestant and see if this helps. A saline nasal spray is also helpful. Drink plenty of fluids and get some rest. If you are still having problems after 7 days, call your primary doctor.

Answer 5

Reducing symptoms : Is possible by taking an antihistamine/decongestant, as well as a mucolytic like mucinex, (guaifenesin) and drinking lots of water.

Answer 6

See your doctor: These extra symptoms are just more severe migraines. Migraines are the body's warning system. Something is stressing you that is making your migraines more complex. You may have infection, allergic reaction, toxic reaction to food or drug, or some emotional crisis. You need a good medical checkup.

Answer 7

Vague: Your symptoms are a concern, especially if the symptoms have persisted for awhile. I would see a doctor asap.

Answer 8

Get tested: If you have high risk sexual behavior or use IV illicit drugs, get tested. Don't wait for symptoms because you might not have them until really late. Only one lymph node is not very dangerous but i would have a consultation with the physician to be on the safe side.

Answer 9

You have alot: Going on so instead of speculating what you may or may not have a complete history. Physical and bloodwork is in order with an internist.

Answer 10

Monitoring Centers: Lymphatic system absorbs/carries things too big to go into the arteries/veins like bacteria eaten by white cells and digested food. Lymph nodes "taste" the lymph for anything bad like bacteria/viruses/cancers, etc. When it detects a problem, it alerts the immune system and your body reacts. They enlarge in response to the inflammation they create when they react. They shrink when all is well.

Answer 11

Numb the mouth: Anything that will decrease the pain in the mouth will help her drink. Ice cold foods act as a local anesthesia as they numb the area. Try popsicles, ice cream, jello, as well as pedialyte popsicles that will keep her hydrated. Also oragel will help. As it is a viral disease, there is no antibiotics that will help it. It will go away on its own.

Answer 12

None: Although it is uncomfortable hand, foot and mouth disease is typical benign and fairly brief in duration.
