Brief Answer:
Symptoms related to excessive work on Computer.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

I understand your query and concern.

Your symptoms are related to excessive computer use-Symptom complex can be referred to as Computer Vision Syndrome.

This can cause eye discomfort as well as boring unilateral headache.

Regarding your little and 3rd finger numbness,its quite clearly related to symptoms of nerve compression in the wrist due to excessive use of fine movements related to wrist and fingers.

All you currently need is a strict lifestyle modification,grossly reducing the time spent on your computer.

This will certainly improve your symptoms in 3-4 months.

Meanwhile Refresh tears eye drops and analgesic gel applied over painful and tingling areas will help.

Post your further queries,if any.
Thank you.

Thank you for the advise doctor. I have few more questions
1. Is there any exercise that you suggest for this nerve pinching problem in my fingers. When i sleep at night i feel that there is numbness in these fingers and till the wrist fold.
2. From past three days i am having urge to urinate at night at it happens only once is this normal. I read through internet and it shows different stuff i am not able to make the reason.
3.As i see when ever i drink water after an hour i feel to urinate and there is an urge to urinate and so i after that i pass urine. Is this normal.
4. My right upper thigh was getting numb these days i checked with one of the doctors in this website and he told me that it is meraliga parethesia and suggested me to sit striaght and do exercise. i am doing the same.
5. I almost urinate 10 times a day and does frequest urination is caused due to meralgia parethesia
6.we are trying for a baby.My wife is at an age of 28 and i am at 33. How do i increase my sperm count more is there any specific food that i should eat and specific food i should avoid (i am non alcholic and non smoker).
7.I used to mastrubate more before marriage does this affect my sperm count now.
8.Do we need to do intercouse only at the time of fertility period or other time also? because when we do it other times the sperm will be wasted so we may not have the same sperm count at the time of fertility period. so what i am trying right now is that i am preserving the sperm till her fertility dates and then we are doing intercourse on those days only. is this a correct method if not please suggets me the correct method .
9. After intercouse i see that alot of semen flows out and get wasted how do we avoid it and make sure that it is inside the vagina (the position we are trying is that she is lying down with a pillow beneath her and i am top of her). After intercouse she stays still for 15 mintues and when i remove my penis i see that there is alot of sperm out along with it so whats the correct method. she stays in the same position for 15 mintues and then she cleans it and is this the correct way. Thank u sir.

Brief Answer:
Masturbation has no evil effects on sperm count.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

1.There is no specific clinically proven exercise on the fingers,which can improve your symptoms of numbness and paresthesias.Therapeutic rest is enough.

2.The urge to urinate after intake of water is quite a normal phenomenon.
You need not worry about it.

3.Yes thats a good option for meralgia.
Continue the same as per your doctor's advice.

4.Foods rich in Zinc and Iron help to increase your sperm count.
They include-Pomegranate,Apples,Soya,Apricot,Green leafy vegetables,fish and eggs.Avoid Fried and fatty foods altogether.Coq 200 mg one tab every day for one month will certainly improve the sperm count.

5.Frequent urination is not due to meralgia.
Probably excess water intake will cause such symptoms.

6.Masturbation has no evil effects on sperm count.

7.Its always better to have sex during the fertile period,since abstinence from
sex for 2-3 days will maximise sperm quality and no.
Each day of abstinence is typically associated with increase in semem volume by 0.4 ml and sperm count by 10-15 million/ml for upto 7 days.
Hence stay from sex or masturbation 7 days prior to the beginning of fertile period.

8.You are absolutely following the right procedure for conceiving baby.This is the correct method,please go ahead with it.

Thank you.
