Video Games......

I have been searching for ever now! No one seems to have  a perfect story that matches mine. When I play video games for long periods(few hours, 2 or 3.) I get this numbness/tingling on the side of my face. It has gotten worse over the years now with a burning/pressure feeling.... I also get some sort of dizziness/light headedness. I'm very concerned.... In my family seizures from video games is in our genes.. Im very concerened Should I see a doctor???
Btw this has been happening for a few years now...

Sounds like a pinched nerve and could affect both sides

But the numbness and tingling is on both sides... SO would that be a pinched nerve or something different

Hi and welcome, Yes you should see a doctor about this. The numbness and tingling in your face is a sign of a pinched nerve. If you have constant sitting position for long hours many adverse things can happen.
