Mouth cancer symptoms of mouth cancer

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0600

The main symptom of mouth cancer is a painless lump inside the mouth or on the tongue that seems to be getting larger and may bleed. Visit a dentist to identify mouth cancer symptoms with tips from a doctor in this free video on cancer. Expert: Dr. David Cathcart Bio: Dr. David Cathcart specializes in occupational medicine and has an in-depth knowledge of cancer, as well as experience dealing with cancer patients and treatment for multiple years. Filmmaker: Johnny Cathcart Mouth cancer is the sixth most common malignancy reported worldwide and one with high mortality ratios among all malignancies. The global number of new cases was estimated at 405,318 about two-thirds of them arising in developing countries. Highest rates are reported in South Asian countries such as India and Sri Lanka. The Indian sub-continent accounts for one-third of the world burden. The incidence and mortality from oral cancer is rising in several regions of Europe, Taiwan, Japan and Australia. Every year in Europe, around 100,800 people are diagnosed with head and neck cancer and almost 40,000 die from the disease. In the USA alone, 30,000 Americans are diagnosed with oral or pharyngeal cancer each year. About 90 percent of head and neck cancers are of the squamous cell variety. Although there have been significant improvements in chemotherapy and surgical techniques, the disease is often particularly challenging to treat since most patients present with advanced disease, have secondary tumours and suffer from other co-morbidities. Unfortunately 5-year survival rate has not improved (50% overall) for the last few decades except in specialized cancer centres.

Sunburn diagnosis and treatment

Sat, 27 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0600

Sunburn results from too much sun or sun-equivalent exposure. Exposure of the skin to lesser amounts of UV will often produce a suntan. Sunburns destroy skin, which controls the amount of heat our bodies retain or release, holds in fluids, and protects us from infection. Usual mild symptoms in humans and animals are red or reddish skin that is hot to the touch, general fatigue, and mild dizziness. Sunburn can be life-threatening and is a leading cause of skin cancer. Radiation risk has increased greatly over the last twenty years. Certain light-skinned and fair-haired people are at greater risk of sunburn injury. Concentrations of this pigment vary greatly among individuals, but in general, darker-skinned people have more melanin than those with lighter skin.UV radiation reflects off of snow, sand, water, cement, and even grass, increasing the potential for damage. People often feel safer on a bright cloudy day, but significant sun damage can still occur. Mild and uncomplicated cases of sunburn usually result in minor skin redness and irritation. Other symptoms are edema, itching, red and/or peeling skin, rash, nausea and fever. Most exposure is limited to sun-exposed areas of the body; however, significant transmission of UVR may occur through some clothing, resulting in sunburn on clothed skin. The risk of sunburn increases with proximity to the tropic latitudes which are located between 23.5Â° north and south latitude. Mild sunburn usually lasts 3-5 days. Moderate or severe sunburn usually lasts at least several days longer. Fair-skinned individuals are the most prone to sun damage, as are people taking medications that contraindicate sun exposure. Using sunscreen will help prevent burns. Medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen are useful, especially when started early. Minimization of sun exposure between the hours of 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. is also recommended. Cool (not ice cold) baths may help. Avoid bath salts, oils, and perfumes because these may produce sensitivity reactions. Avoid scrubbing the skin or shaving the skin. Use soft towels to gently dry yourself. Don't rub. Use a light, fragrance-free skin moisturizer. Vinegar is a remedy for the stinging sensation on a burn. Drinking fluids can aid in hydration, and eating high protein foods will assist tissue repair.

Urinary tract infection urine infection

Sun, 21 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0600

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that affects any part of the urinary tract. The main causative agent is Escherichia coli. Although urine contains a variety of fluids, salts, and waste products, it usually does not have bacteria in it. When bacteria get into the bladder or kidney and multiply in the urine, they cause a UTI. The most common type of UTI is a bladder infection which is also often called cystitis. Another kind of UTI is a kidney infection, known as pyelonephritis, and is much more serious. Although they cause discomfort, urinary tract infections can usually be quickly and easily treated with a short course of antibiotics.Symptoms include frequent feeling and/or need to urinate, pain during urination, and cloudy urine.

Benefits of eating a living and raw food diet

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0600

http://www.AlkalineDietAdvisor.com What are the benefits of eating a living and raw food diet? The benefits of eating a raw and living food diet are too numerous to mention in entirety. The living and raw food diet has helped many people feel better when nothing else has worked. Many people have healed themselves of diseases and ailments such as diabetes, fibromyalgia, acne, migraines, back pain, neck and joint pain, asthma, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, hypoglycemia, colitis, diverticulitis, Candida, arthritis, serious allergies, depression, anxiety, mood swings, heartburn, gas, bloating, skin diseases, obesity, chronic fatigue, cancers and many more. Excess weight seems to just melt off your body when you eat a raw and living food diet! To easily understand why raw and living foods can rebalance and restore optimum health, we must focus on one key area; that is how digestion really works. Digestive enzymes are destroyed by heat. Beginning at a cooking temperature of 118 degrees the complete enzymatic content of food begins to rapidly decrease to 0% by 120 degrees. Cooking foods can also destroy other nutrients, and render natural oils indigestible. Compromised digestion, resulting from highly refined and overcooked foods, creates a ripple effect through toxic-accumulation and immune over-stimulation that detrimentally affects the physical, emotional and spiritual levels of our being. The ingestion of a high percentage of organically grown raw and living foods is a critical foundation for the reversal of these conditions, along with the continuous gifts of health, vitality and elevated quality of life.

peritoneal dialysis

Thu, 18 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0600

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a treatment for patients with severe chronic kidney failure. The process uses the patient's peritoneum in the abdomen as a membrane across which fluids and dissolved substances (electrolytes, urea, glucose, albumin and other small molecules) are exchanged from the blood. Fluid is introduced through a permanent tube in the abdomen and flushed out either every night while the patient sleeps (automatic peritoneal dialysis) or via regular exchanges throughout the day (continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis). PD is used as an alternative to hemodialysis though it is far less common. It has comparable risks and expenses, with the primary advantage being the ability to undertake treatment without visiting a medical facility. The primary complication with PD is a risk of infection due to the presence of a permanent tube in the abdomen.

Caffeine Consumption and pregnant woman

Sat, 13 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0600

Caffeine consumption by pregnant women can increase the risk of miscarriage, according to a study in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology. It doesn't matter whether the caffeine comes from coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or cola soft drinks. For women who drink more than 200 milligrams of caffeine daily, the risk of miscarriage doubles. Though previous studies have found an association between caffeine and miscarriage, it wasn't clear if the problem was related to the caffeine or another substance in the coffee, or if there was a connection with the non-caffeine drinkers' lifestyles.

laparoscopic gastric bypass

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0600

laparoscopic gastric bypass,is one of (GBP)gastric bypass procedures which are used for treatment of morbid obesity,agastric bypass divides the stomach into two poches upper and lower and connects both to the small intestine Any GBP leads to a marked reduction in the functional volume of the stomach,accompanied by an altered physiological,psychological response to food You will feel full more quickly than when your stomach was its original size, which reduces the amount of food you eat and thus the calories consumed The Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass, Roux-en-Y, first performed in 1993, is regarded as one of the most difficult procedures to perform by limited access techniques-Laparoscopic surgery is performed using several small incisions,one of which conveys a surgical telescope connected to a video camera, and others permit access of specialized operating instruments. The surgeon actually views his operation on a video screen. The method is also called limited access surgery, reflecting both the limitation on handling and feeling tissues, and also the limited resolution and two-dimensionality of the video image.With experience,a skilled laparoscopic surgeon can perform most procedures as expeditiously as with an open incision â with the option of using an incision should the need arise. Complications of laparoscopic gastric bypass are as any other abdominal surgery infection and hemorrhage in addition to anastomotic leakage,stricture and ulcer
