Hi Dr Lee,
My shoulder feel very tight and very pain. I had went to do MRI but everything is okay. I just want to ask Dr any advice for me as I really feel very pain.
Dear Joshua, Shoulder pain may be due to inflammatory nerve conditions but an even more likely cause is shoulder injury. The latter is not excluded by normal MRI scan. A proper orthopaedic assessment will help to determine if you have a nerve condition or shoulder injury.
Dear Dr Lee,
I am Lu. 3 months ago, while i doing a yoga backbend i hurt my trapezius and later was told by gp itvaffected my neck. I have very limited neck movement for a week. I went for a physio and was hooked with a mobilizer that vibrates and next day i had a vertigo for few days. Subsequently i have imbalance and found difficulty in focusing at night for 2 months now. Just few days ago, i tried to massage my traps and neck using Osim, and next day when i lied on my head, the vertigo is back! I feel extremely miserable and wonder what would recommend me to do next. Also, does your practice looks into such problem, as i have a feeling it is related to my traps and neck.
Dear Lu
It is not possible to speculate without going through a clinical evaluation. Your symptoms may not even be related to the yoga posture. Do see your GP for a repeat examination. He/she will assess whether you need referral for tests or specialist opinion.
Best wishes.
Dear Dr Lee,
My left upper back thigh was in pain (internally) like burn. But the external skin was good. I didn’t not expose to any burnt or excessive exercise. Even now siting down or in touch with the area. It was pain. Need your kind help for this injury that has been 1 months plus. Thank you very much.
Dear Ms Ng
Skin sensitivity may be due to various conditions. In the thigh area, incubating shingles infection and pinched nerve are common causes.
You should see your family doctor for clinical evaluation so that appropriate treatment can given.
Best wishes.

Dear Dr Lee
My son is 6 now, after consult with the Pediatrician, they told me is tics, or Tourette syndrome. He clear his throat before, then change to eyes blinking, and now is shaking head. Kindly advise.
Thanks.
Dear Nicole
Your child’s paediatrician may have advised on a period of observation to assess your child’s progress. At this age, a large proportion of tics are self-limiting and turn out to be Transient Tic Disorder, which generally disappears within a year. It is advisable not to over-emphasise the tic behaviour and to refrain from ridicule and strict orders to behave. If the tics are persistent, your paediatrician will probably advise consultation with child neurologist.
Dear Dr Lee,
My father who is 61 years old experience weakness on both upper and lower limbs for almost one month. He can’t even tear open a plastic wrap for food. He had a history of fall before the incident and was fully recovered and do not feel any pain. However, after the recovery, he realized that his hands and legs are weak and couldn’t work as previously. Should he consult a neurologist for a check up? Kindly advise. Thank you.
Dear M Long
Yes, your father should see a doctor very soon. There are several reasons for weakness of limbs in a senior, including aggravation of neck compression from bone spurs due to a bad fall.
Best wishes.
Dear Dr Lee,
My daughter was on board last week to Bali, and when the flight touched the ground i discovered only one side of her face lifted when she laugh. I am concerned if it were a light stroke.

Dear M Lee
Your daughter needs a clinical evaluation by a doctor in order to arrive at a diagnosis and to formulate recommendation for any treatment if needed.

Dear Dr. Lee,
I am 32 years old this year. I had started to have migraine few years ago, but recently I noticed it triggers more often. I had been very discipline on avoiding food which triggers migraine. I also went to the GP for some medication for migraine. I usually will see some flashing lights on my vision and the pain would start to come slowly and becoming severe till I feel nausea. I am not sure it is a common migraine or I should consult a neurologist for a check up. Kindly advise. TQ.
Dear Joey
On the face of it, your symptoms are suggestive of classical migraine. However, if you feel it is more frequent and/or altered in features, you should consult your GP for reassessment. The next steps might be better management of trigger factors, or more comprehensive migraine therapy. If your doctor feels specialist opinion is needed, then you could consult a neurologist.
Best wishes.
Dear Janice
Pain in the lower limbs may be due to a variety of causes:
bone and joint disorders
abnormal muscle tone – e.g. Parkinson’s disease, spasticity, dystonia
peripheral nerve disorders – e.g. neuropathy, Restless legs syndrome
She could be assessed initially by a neurologist or joint specialist in order to pin-point the source of the pain.
Best wishes.
Dear Ms.M.K.Lee

Dear Ms Gan
