[|Human|] I have been having issues for about a couple weeks that I have been conscious of - but, while I m sitting down it progressively gets worse throughout the day with pinching and then progressing to numbness. This occurs while I m sitting in my chair at work, where I spend my time 5 days a week in the same position. it also happens while driving, sitting on the couch at home and basically the sensation surrounds these types of bodily positions. The result has been numbness in the pelvic and genital region. This has also caused me to have a difficult time getting an erection while I have been in this position, but I have no such problems if I had been in an upright standing position for a period of time. Also, I do have diverticulosis, but it seems to be under control.
