Spinocerebellar ataxia type -2 is a genetic disorder characterized by slow and progressive incoordination of gait , associated with poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movement. There is no treatment for
this condition. A stem cell therapy to rejuvenate cells and to improve motor movement can be taken as a clinical experiment.

Migraine is a neurological syndrome characterized by headache, nausea and temporary blindness.

How best can you manage anginal pain?

Rajalakshmi; rakrishna72@gmail.com

When we perform a strenuous physical activity there is an increased demand for oxygen by the heart muscle. If the blood vessel that supply  blood to the heart are narrowed from atherosclerosis, the blood supply is limited and the oxygen demand cannot be met .This results in chest discomfort, called angina.  Angina is the pain or tightness in chest, but can also be experienced in the arm, shoulder or jaw. This pain may be accompanied by shortness of breath, sweating, nausea and palpitations. Though it can be managed with drugs. Adopting a healthy eating and regular exercise as per the advice of your doctor will serve as a permanent solution, as angina is due to clogged arteries.
