Suggest Medication For Nausea And Dizziness Due To Prolonged Use Of Computers

Hello, I work on computers all day and toward the end of the day lately I have been feeling dizzy and nauseous. I thought I was hungry but I eat and its still there. I try to drink plenty of water. Could it just by my body telling me to stop looking at the computer.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Sitting on the computer for prolonged periods involves strain to many parts of the body including eyes, brain, hands, wrists, neck and back muscles. This can mean that the posture while typing is not correct or your computer and eyes are not aligned at the same level. It might also be that you do not blink your eyes frequently or are not breathing normally when sitting at the computer. Please take regular breaks and drink adequate fluids when at work. This will also prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. If you still experience your problems even after following measures to control them then please consult your doctors.
