I'm experiencing numbness during the night in my pinky and ring finger on my left hand. It's been happening for the last couple of months, almost 5 to 6 times a week, and I'm not sure if it's due to the way I'm sleeping or another health issue. Any idea what might be going on?

The red dots on your penis head could be caused by various factors, such as: Fordyce spots (benign, small bumps) Pearly penile papules (small, harmless growths) Folliculitis (inflammation of hair follicles) Since you're experiencing minimal itching, it's likely not a serious condition. Consult a dermatologist or a urologist for a proper examination and diagnosis. Avoid scratching or popping the bumps, as this can lead to infection or scarring.

Question

I'm trying to figure out what NVD means in relation to a nerve problem with my right hand. I've had some tests done like EEG, EMG, and MRI of my neck and brain, and everything seems fine. The doctor suggested NVD, but I'm not sure if it's a test or a type of therapy. They've also prescribed me Clonotril 0.25 mg, Felicity OD, and Meaxon Plus injection. Could you help me understand what NVD stands for and what it involves?
