What Causes Burning Sensation On The Head With Confusion And Loss Of Balance?

I have this burning in my right side of my head as though something is trying to get through. This can happen when i get upset,or think to hard. Confusion follows and my balance is affected. Sometimes i think i am having a stroke because my speech seems to slow down. This goes away most times,but it is happening more often, and this scares me. I go to the emergency room and they find nothing. Help!!!

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have burning sensation on the head with confusion and loss of balance. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like trigeminal neuralgia , bell's palsy , tics , neuropathy or meniere's disease. I would suggest you to consult neurologist for proper examination . Doctor will take history , order CT scan or MRI to confirm the diagnosis . Doctor may refer you to RNT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may check CT scan or MRI report and examine ear with otoscope . Doctor may prescribe diazepam promethazine , meniett device , gentamicin , steroids or recommend endolymphatic sac procedure. For now avoid bending forward and do meditation along with drink green teat thrice a day .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
