Q: I am a 27-year-old software engineer. I have started having headache on the right side of my head till my right shoulder. I thought it is due to migraine or some wrong posture during sleep. But nowadays I have this pain daily in the evening and I feel that the right side of my body has become very weak. My hands have also started shivering like old people. I have been masturbating for the past 10 years and I stress myself a lot during ejaculation. Has my nervous system become weak due to stress?

A:Your problems are due to faulty posture while using computers. One should sit straight with a small cushion tucked behind the back, arms on armrests of the chair. Monitor should be at eye level, so that neck remains straight. Do some stretch outs for 4/5 times every two hours.
