ULCERATIVE COLITIS

Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease in which there is inflammation of the inner lining of large intestine or colon. If inflammation is untreated then there will be a development of ulcer on the inner lining of intestine and colon.

• Inflammation of skin, joints, and eye
• Colon cancer
• Blood clots in veins and arteries

DIAGNOSIS OF ULCERATIVE COLITIS

1. Blood test: - to check for sing of infection and rule out anemia
2. Stool test: - White blood cell present in the stool indicate ulcerative colitis.
3. Colonoscopy: - To view entire colon using a thin, flexible, lightened tube with the attachment of camera and to collect a small sample of tissue for lab analysis.
4. Sigmoidoscopy: - If the colon is severely inflamed than sigmoidoscopy is necessary.
5. X-ray: - To see perforated colon
6. CT-scan: - To suspect complication of ulcerative colitis such as the perforated colon.
7. MRI: - To find out how deep infection is in colon

TREATMENT OF ULCERATIVE COLITIS

Treatment for ulcerative colitis is depending on the severity of inflammation of the colon and our main goal is to reduce inflammation as soon as possible for further complication.

Treatment for ulcerative colitis is divided into three-part

Diet: - Spicy and high fiber food can worsen symptoms of ulcerative colitis so soft, blend food, is better for ulcerative colitis

Medicine: -

• Antibiotics: -To heal inflammation caused by bacteria
• A medicine which helps to reduce inflammation of the colon
• Immunosuppressive medicine to reduce attack on colon by the immune system
• Other symptomatic treatments such as an antidiarrheal, analgesic, and iron supplement.

Surgery: -If medicinal management doesn’t work on ulcerative colitis than a doctor may advise removing the colon.

Advice to the patient of ulcerative colitis

ASTHMA

Definition: - Asthma is an inflammatory condition of the airway of lungs and because of inflammation its make difficult in breathing.

In asthma, inside wall of the airways in lungs can become inflamed and swollen. If there is infection present than membrane in airway lining secret excess mucus so narrowing of airways and mucus secretion can make difficult in breathing cough and wheeze.

Asthma is an incurable disease but we can control it by finding causes and trigger of asthma.   

Causes: -

We cannot say sure about any single cause of asthma but there is a group of factor affecting to lungs and causes asthma to the patient.

1. Genetics: - if parents have asthma than there is a chance of asthma to their children is high.
2. Allergens: -frequently contact with the allergen.
3. Viral infection: - History of viral infection in childhood can lead to asthma in an adolescent.

TRIGGERS OF ASTHMA

There is a certain condition that may trigger asthma and they are as follow

1. Illness: -Flu and pneumonia can trigger asthma
2. Emotion: -Too much of laughing, shouting, and crying may trigger an attack of asthma
3. Weather: -In very high humidity and or low temperature

TREATMENT

Treatment of asthma can be dividing into the three categories.

Treatment can be chosen according to the causes and triggers of asthma.

BREATHING EXERCISES

For the asthmatic patient is difficult to breathe so breathing exercise can help to get more air in and out for lung and on a regular basis it can help in increasing lung capacity and relief in the future asthmatic attack.

1^st AID TREATMENT

1^ST Aid treatment can be used in or during the asthmatic attack for quick relief and it helps you to breathe with ease.

1. Inhalers and nebulizer use with medicine for quick relief
2. Bronchodilators which relieve spasm in the lung due to an inflammatory condition of airways.
3. Anti-inflammatories for treatment of inflamed airways.

LONG TERM ASTHMA CONTROLLERS

For long-term asthma control, we can take medicine on daily to prevent asthmatic symptoms.

This is a very large topic to discuss so we will cover this topic in the separate blog.

SOME HOME REMEDIES FOR ASTHMA

There are some home remedies which may use during the attack of asthma and can make ease of breath, some home remedies are as follow.

• Coffee: -Coffee act similar as theophylline, so coffee open airways that’s why its use for the asthmatic patient for ease of breathing.
• Mustard oil: -Can apply directly to the skin and give massage over the chest to open airways.

Diabetes in India | types, symptoms, causes, and treatment | 2019

DIABETES: TYPES, SYMPTOMS, CAUSES, AND TREATMENT

Diabetes is the chronic medical condition caused by insufficient production as well as secretion of insulin from the pancreas in case of Type 1 diabetes which also know as Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus. In Type 2 Diabetes There will be a defective response to insulin which is also known as Noninsulin-dependent diabetes Mellitus.
    

Work of insulin (a hormone produced by the pancreas ) is to control the blood sugar level in the body. After we consume food the blood glucose level is increasing and then insulin is released from the pancreas and controls the glucose level of blood but in case of diabetes, there will be absence or insufficient production of insulin that causes hyperglycemia(increased blood sugar level).

DIABETES IN INDIA 

Diabetes is India's fastest growing disease about 72 million cases recorded till 2017 and this will be double in 2025 diabetes cases in India. this is a serious public health challenge to the country. 

According to the report of the Indian Council for medical research and institute for health metrics and evaluation that diabetes prevalence has increased by 64 percent cases in India.

According to the world health organization featured a sheet on diabetes an estimated 3.4 million death is caused by high blood sugar. that organization also estimated that 80 percents of diabetes deaths occur in low and middle-class income countries and in between 2016 to 2030 deaths due to diabetes may be an increase in double.

In India 2010 about 51 million people are recorded for diabetes and in future 2030 it may be increased to about 87 million. 

TYPE OF DIABETES 

1. TYPE 1 DIABETES is also known as insulin-dependent diabetes and its developed in children adolescent and young adult so that's why type 1 diabetes is also known as juvenile diabetes. About 80 percent person is living with type 1 diabetes in an adult. A healthy pancreas produces insulin(hormone) but in type 1 diabetes person pancreas doesn't produce any insulin so with the absence of insulin-glucose level is the increase in body and causing high blood sugar level or hyperglycemia.
2. TYPE 2 DIABETES is also known as non-insulin dependent diabetes. In type 2 diabetes pancreas work well and also produce enough insulin for the body but there is the problem of response to insulin from the body and leads to increase glucose level in the body(hyperglycemia).
3. GESTATIONAL DIABETES:- In pregnancy, some women develop high blood sugar level in the body and leads to hyperglycemia that condition called as gestational diabetes.

CAUSES OF DIABETES 

TYPE 1 DIABETES is an autoimmune condition that destroys the beta cell of the pancreas by our immune system and this damage is permanent.

TYPE 2 DIABETES in this pancreas is normal and also secretion of insulin is also normal but the response to the insulin is not properly done by our body so that's why blood sugar level is increased. There is some factor which is also responsible for developing type 2 diabetes.

• GENETIC
• LACK OF EXERCISE 
• OVERWEIGHT
• OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL REASON 

GESTATIONAL DIABETES During pregnancy there will be a lot of hormone imbalance occur so that's why there is also an imbalance of insulin and mother developed gestational diabetes.

SYMPTOMS OF DIABETES

GENERAL SYMPTOMS ARE AS FOLLOW 

• EXCESSIVE THIRST AND HUNGER
• FREQUENT URINATION
• DRY AND ITCHY SKIN
• BLURR VISSION
• SLOW HEALING WOUND

In type 1 diabetes weight loss occurs and one serious condition ketoacidosis will form if diabetes is poorly controlled.

In type 2 diabetes can causes dark patches in folds of skin.

COMPLICATION

The complication in diabetes occurs due to poor control blood glucose level and can increase the risk of the serious complication that may be life-threatening. 

• RETINOPATHY( PROBLEM IN RYE VISSION)
• VESSEL DISEASE ( HEART ATTACK OR STROCK)
• NEUROPATHY (NERVE DAMAGE)
• INFECTION OR SKIN CONDITION
• ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

IN GESTATIONAL DIABETES

• HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE 
• PREECLAMPSIA 
• MISCARRIES
• BIRTH DEFECT

PREVENTION OF DIABETES

Type 1 diabetes is an Autoimmune disease which cannot be prevented so there are no any preventive measures for type 1 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes can be prevented if we change our lifestyle and diet.

• CONTROL YOUR WEIGHT & MAINTAIN
• DIET
• EXERCISE REGULARLY 
• AVOID SMOKING
• CONTROL LIPID PROFILE 

TREATMENT OF DIABETES 

We cannot completely treat diabetes but control the sugar level for further complication and live a healthy life with help of your doctor. In diabetes treatment plan our main goal is to control blood sugar level within limits according to which type of diabetes you have.

TYPE 1 DIABETES TREATMENT

In type 1 diabetes pancreas is damage permanently so there will be no any production of insulin occur so for the patient of type 1 diabetes must take insulin to live.

Insulin is directly injected under skin your doctor can teach you to use of insulin pump so you can easily give shoot of the insulin pump in at home.

TYPE 2 DIABETES TREATMENT

Type 2 diabetes managed by diet and exercise and there is some medicine are also available for controlling blood sugar level. Choice of medicine depends on your blood glucose level. Your doctor very well knows which medicine should prescribe in that particular range of blood sugar level.

In both types of diabetes, you should monitor blood sugar level.

HAIR FALL

Good morning everyone, in this blog we discuss hair fall which is most common in man as well as women or even in children nowadays. Have you ever know that why your hairs are falling out? So in this blog, we discuss the What are the causes of Hair fall? and its treatment and how to prevent hair loss.

As you know hair grows everywhere on the skin except on the palms of our and hands and soles of our foot. Hair is made up of a protein called as keratin that is produced in hair follicle in the outer layer of skin. Most common causes for the hair fall are diet, lifestyle, and many more which we will discuss in this blog. A common type of hair fall is known as alopecia which means 100 hair falls per day.

TYPE OF HAIR FALLS

ALOPECIA ARETA: - This is the most common type of hair fall in young adult and children. Alopecia areta starts suddenly and causes patchy hair loss. This condition results in baldness

TRICHOFILLOMANIA: - This is psychological disorder in which person pull out own hair.

ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA: - This is the genetic disorder that affects both men as well as women. Men with the condition called as male pattern baldness that suffering hair loss as early as 20’s. Women with this condition called as female pattern baldness in this women experience general thinning of hair over the entire scalp, with the most extensive hair loss at the crown.

INVOLUTIONAL ALOPECIA: - This is a natural condition in which hair become thins with age. Hair follicle goes into the resting phase and remaining hair follicle become shorter and less in number.

ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS: - In this condition hair fall from all over the body including eyebrows, eyelashes, and pubic hair.

TELOGEN ELFLUVIUM: - In this condition, there is temporary thinning of hair over the scalp that’s occurring because of changes in the growth cycle of hair. There is a large number of hairs follicle enter into the resting phase at the same time.

SCARING ALOPECIA: - In this condition, there is permanent loss of hair because of inflammatory condition such as cellulitis folliculitis acne and other skin diseases. That condition resulting in scar and destroys the ability of the hair regenerate.

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF HAIR FALL?

• GENES From parents to children
• HORMONES Abnormal level of androgen
• STRESS this is most common causes of hair fall
• ILLNESS Such as inflammatory condition or fungal infection
• PREGNANCY Because of disharmony in hormone during pregnancy
• DRUGS Chemotherapy drug for cancer, Beta-adrenergic blocker drugs, and Birth control pill.
• INJURIES Burn can cause temporary hair loss. In that case, normal hair growth usually returns when the injured part heals and if the scar is not present.
• AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE may cause the alopecia in this the immune system rev up for an unknown reason and affect the hair follicle.
• DIET As you know hair is made up of protein so low protein diet can cause the temporary hair fall.
• MEDICAL CONDITION there are many diseases can cause hair fall such as thyroid, lupus, diabetes, iron deficiency anemia but the hair fall is temporary because when the underlying disease is treated well then the hair will return.
• COSMETIC PRODUCT too often uses of shampoo, perms, bleaching and dying hair can contribute overall hair thinning by making hair weak and brittle.

SING AND SYMPTOMS

In Men and Women

• Thinning of hair on the scalp
• Resending hairline
• In men, horse-shoe shaped pattern hair fall occurs that leaves the crown of the exposed.
• In women general thinning especially at the crown of the head.

In Children and Young adult

• Sudden loss of patchy of hair
• Complete loss of all hair from the body
• Patches of broken hair and incomplete hair loss on the scalp.

HOW CAN I PREVENT HAIR LOSS?

I give some advice which you can follow and prevent your hair loss.

CHOOSE PRODUCT WISELY  Use the shampoo that designed for your hair type, when curling your hair chose less damaging sponge roller and use a brush which less tear your hair.

GO NATURAL Leave your hair its natural curl or texture, and give time to recovers between two treatments to grow new hair follicle.

BRUSH PROPERLY using a proper brush, apply full stroke from scalp to the tips of your hair to distribute the hair nature oil. Be gentle and avoid brushing your hair when wet.

TREATMENT

DRUGS: - There are some drugs that are approved for hair fall 1. Minoxidil (Rogaine): Rogaine is available over the counter as a liquid or foam. Apply it to the scalp twice a day to grow hair and prevent hair loss. 2. Finasteride (Propecia, Proscar): This is a pill that you take daily. It’s only available with a prescription from your doctor.

Hair transplants: - The two most popular hair transplant procedures are follicular unit transplantation and follicular unit extraction but both surgeries are very expensive.

1. Follicular unit transplantation (FUT): FUT is the more “classic” method. It involves removing some skin from the back of your scalp, where there is an abundance of hair, and reinserting the hair follicles into the part of the scalp where you are experiencing hair loss.
2. Follicular unit extraction (FUE): In FUE, hair follicles are removed directly from the scalp and transplanted to the bald parts of the scalp.

Laser treatment: - Laser treatment is thought to reduce the inflammation in follicles that keeps them from regrowing. There are limited studies to support their effectiveness in treating hair loss, but a 2016 review determined that low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is safe and effective when used to treat male pattern hair loss. More research is needed.

Quit smoking: - If you’re a smoker, you’ve probably heard about all the negative effects smoking has on your health. But did you know that smoking could cause hair loss on top of facial wrinkles and premature greying of hair? Research has determined that there’s a link between smoking and hair loss. If you want to keep from going bald, it may be a good idea to quit smoking as soon as possible.

Scalp massage: - They can help with your hair loss, too. Massaging the scalp stimulates the hair follicles. In one small study, healthy Japanese men who received four minutes of scalp massage each day for 24 weeks had thicker hair at the end of the study.

Oils: - In the market, there are much more hair oil is available that claims that prevent hair loss there’s some evidence that peppermint oil can help with hair growth. Rosemary oil has also been traditionally used to increase blood circulation on the scalp. A study found that rosemary leaf extract improved hair regrowth in mice. Coconut oil, castor oil, and olive oil are also widely recommended, but research on their benefits for hair growth is limited.

A balanced diet: - A well-balanced diet can keep your hair in tip-top shape. Make sure you are including a variety of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, unsaturated fats, and lean proteins in your diet, and limit your intake of sweets. Certain vitamins and minerals found in food are associated with healthy hair. Iron-rich foods, including lean beef, beans, green leafy vegetables, iron-fortified grains, and eggs. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such salmon, mackerel, tuna, flax seeds, egg yolks, hemp seeds, and walnuts. High-protein foods, like eggs, lean meats, and seafood.

Onion juice: - A 2002 study showed that the use of onion juice as a topical treatment resulted in significantly more regrowth than just tap water in people with patchy alopecia areata.
Use onion black seed hair oil for better result. BUY FROM HERE
