Around two weeks back while using my laptop I got the nerves of my hand damaged. I was holding the laptop with one hand under it when I felt that my hand was numb( you know like when any of your body part sleeps). I rubbed my hand try to get it back to normal but it didn’t. It’s been more than two weeks now and it’s still the same. Doc said some of my nerves were damaged due to the heat and it may take a while ( a month or so) to heal.
I read some time ago that male fertility can be effected by the use of laptop as it can damage the sperms. I didn’t understand the seriousness of the statement until two weeks back!! So people, specially guys, better be careful with the laptops…
Well TK it was for maybe 15 mins or so.. I have dell which heats up more than a usual laptop.. It has been acting up lately, warms up a lot and shuts down. I had kept my hand under the laptop to lift it a lil' bit so that the fan can work properly and it won't shut down.. The machine did'nt shut down but my hand did .. :( :D
I keep my laptop on my lap and because of that i have a huge red spot there thank god its healing now but before it was so dark and my legs felt numb as well at times especially when i went to sleep.
btw does anyone know what kind of specialist can I visit fro this problem? I have been to a GP and was told that nothing can be done, it will take its course of time plus she advised me to take multi-vitamins which I am already taking. I was quite patient but running out of it now plus it hurts a little bit too...
