Question

Ive been having trouble sleeping in my bed because my body gets totally numb. Its gotten to the point where Ive started sleeping on the floor instead. But even when I use a soft pillow, my head still goes numb. Is there any way to fix this? I'm really worried about what's going on.

Numbness in any part of body indicates some involvement of nerves. It could be due to bad posture or nerve compression. If it is due to improper posture, it will resolve with correction of posture. If numbness is persistent, Consult a Neurospine specialist.

Question

I've been feeling really weird lately, like there's an earthquake happening just for me. Sometimes, it feels like someone's shaking my chair or bed while I'm trying to relax or sleep. I've also been experiencing random twitches, muscle spasms, and this strange internal trembling sensation. It's almost like these vibrations are somehow linked to my heartbeat. Every time my heart beats, it feels like there's an earthquake going on, especially when Im standing still. What could be going on with my body?
