I'm 61 yrs old When I sleep, my left hand becomes no sensation . I think no circulation of blood and after I wake and shake hands, it becomes normal. pl suggest what should i do or what treatment i should do Kindly advice

Ans: Hi Venkat,
The position in which you sleep is likely to compress a nerve that supplies the hand. Try sleeping in another position and if this still happens show it at a physiotherapy clinic.

Hi, I am 35 yr old male. I have a query regarding 'Restless legs syndrome'. Since childhood I have a tendency to keep moving my legs while sitting. When working on a computer in a sitting position on a chair, I feel comfortable only when I keep my legs horizontal on another chair. I feel very very uncomfortable keeping my legs vertical hanging down. Wearing socks makes it a bit comfortable. Even at night I wear socks to get a good night's sleep. What can be the cause for the same and how do I reduce/ prevent it? My food intake, weight, blood pressure, sleep pattern are normal. I also follow a strict fitness regime since my childhood which includes running & sports. One observation is that whenever I sweat due to exercise, I feel much better.

Ans: Hi
Apply warm or cool packs. Use of heat or cold, or alternating use of the two, may lessen the limb sensations. Establish good sleep hygiene. Fatigue tends to worsen symptoms of RLS , so it's important that you practice good sleep hygiene.

Good evening sir, I'm in my last year of b.pharm and i'm very confused what to pursue now like m.pharm or MBA , basically i have to earn money as soon as possible but i dont where and how

Ans: Hi,

The best option after completing your undergraduate degree in pharmacy is to pursue an MBA. However, it is important to gain some experience in your chosen field before starting your MBA. This experience can help you secure a higher salary and a better position.

If you're looking to earn money quickly after your undergraduate degree, consider a career in marketing—you can expect a salary of around 6.0 LPA.

It's advisable to work in the field for at least 2 to 3 years before pursuing your MBA, whether it's full-time, distance learning, or virtual.

Once you complete your MBA, you can expect to see an increase in both your position and salary.

Best of luck!
