What could cause a popping sensation in your legs and backside after walking on a treadmill?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

That popping feeling is called Fasciculation. When you work your muscles they contract and the blood vessels dilate. When you are done exercising and your body is returning to a normal state the twitching can occur. It should go away shortly after you finish your workout. This is normal after a good walk or jog..and usually sitting to rest. The feeling results in a "popcorn" feeling at the skins surface.

Can tagamet treat warts?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The podiatrist I just went to, after a failed laser removal at a general doctor, prescribed prescription Tagamet 2x day along with covering the area with topical acid covered with Duct Tape. I thought he was on crack when I left his office, yet it seems to be working so far. This has been quite the ordeal and I will be in heaven if I have finally found a cure.

What does it mean when you have trouble sleeping?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

you are probably suffering from insomnia. it can be caused by all sorts of physical and psychological problems. If you are stressed during the day that could be a good reason. If you were not having a regular, consistent sleep pattern before the insomnia, that could lead to it. But it's best to consult a doctor with all of your symptoms.

Are there any other options for sleep apnea other than cpap?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes there are. These options should be discussed with your physician prior to use:

1. There are dental devices which can be molded specifically for the patient as well as after market versions which are already pre-formed. These devices are worn in the mouth at night and push the bottom jaw forward, which hopes to improve airflow by widening the throat.

2. Another option is surgery. This is much more invasive than CPAP therapy, but is an option for when CPAP therapy isn't working or patients refuse to be compliant.

3. There are also some holistic/herbal medications which claim to help improve the conditions which allow apnea to occur.

Can you take sleeping pills during sleep test?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Generally, Ambien and other hypnotics will not affect the quality of the sleep test. However, other powerful sleeping pills that have respiratory and sedative effects may interfere with the test. I suggest you check with the doctor or lab performing the sleep test to determine if it is a contraindication.

What happens when you take sleeping pills and pills to keep you awake?

Insomnia can result in many physical and emotional problems as lack of sleep can result in the disruption of normal bodily function and can cause a person to experience emotional stress and depression.

This condition, however, can be treated with the help of sleeping pills and there are many types of sleeping pills available on the market with zopiclone widely considered to be one of the most effective.

Why am I sleeping 12 hours a day?

User Avatar

Asked by ChrisSimsfb2503

You will have to see a doctor to find out why you are oversleeping. All we can do here is guess, not provide facts, because we do not know you. Nor can we medically examine you.

  • You could have low blood sugar levels, resulting in low energy.
  • You could have a condition called hypersomnia.
  • Depression and anxiety negatively affects our sleep cycle. People with these mental conditions find it harder to fall asleep but also harder to wake up.
  • Obesity is also linked to oversleeping.
  • Oversleeping is also an early symptom of heart conditions.
  • Or, on the lighter side, you are a cat who has learnt how to use a computer.

You will have to see a doctor for a factual diagnosis on why you are oversleeping.
