Occipital neuralgia is a condition in which the occipital nerves, the nerves that run through the scalp, are injured or inflamed. This causes headaches that feel like severe piercing, throbbing or shock-like pain in the upper neck, back of the head or behind the ears.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. As I understand you have hypothyroidism since 10 years and you are on 125 mcg. However, there is no mention of current t3, t4 & tsh levels. Because if hypothyroidism is under good control then all the symptoms related to that condition are in control. So if you are getting back ache and pain in legs, then there is a need to look at those values. If hypothyroidism is well controlled then one has to investigate and find out the reasons for such pain.
Another important aspect is your height & weight. With a bmi (body mass index) of 29.29 kg/sq meter (normal < 23 kg/sq meter), you are already very close to become grade 1 obese person. Your ideal body weight should be about 59 kg. Which means there is an excess of over 16 kgs. In uncontrolled hypothyroidism weight does go up. As regards gastritis, repeated use of painkillers does lead to that condition. Etoricoxib is supposed to cause very little effect on stomach mucosa and supposed to be safe. There also a need to look at your vitamin d3 & calcium levels, plus time spent on exercises daily. So please come back with these details and then I may be of help. Thanks.

Hello-
you have been wrongly diagnosed by your doctor. Pain and swelling in testicles can be alarming and is due to varicocele mostly. It will reoccur after your medications. Better go for testicular ultrasound and share reports for guidance and treatment.
In case, you are interested and in favour of homoeopathy which is very much safe for any age group, i would recommend you the following medicines:
Alpha- Coff and Alpha- WD along with Ferrum Phos. 6x.
Weak eye sight could be a probable reason for persistent headache, other reasons could be weakness, tension, cervical spondylosis or may be a muscular spasm, and many more. It will be better if you consult a qualified doctor and start the treatment, there you can identify the exact cause also.
