I've been having this tingling sensation in my hands, feet, and all over my body. A neurologist recommended vitamins B12 and others, but the issue hasn't gone away. I've been masturbating about 5 times a week for the past 8 years. Do you think that could be causing it? What should I do?

It may be due to nerve compression in cervical spine or anywhere in shoulder side because of poor posture... You can take physiotherapy for nerve entrapment and correct posture exercises. Masterbation is not a cause for this problem.

I'm really worried about my nephew. He had this strange popping sensation in his head and then got a super painful headache. We rushed him to urgent care, but they didn't do any tests and said he was okay. Should we be taking him to a hospital instead? Could this be something serious, or is it possible that it's nothing to worry about?

It would be advisable in this scenario to consult with a specialist and get a detailed evaluation.

I'm really worried about my 66-year-old mom. She has epilepsy and she's been having this shortness of breath like asthma, along with a bad cough and cold. I was wondering if she could take deriphyllin along with ascoril expectorant syrup? Just want to make sure it's safe for her.
