Acne and Pimples Prevention and Treatments


Pimples are tiny skin lesions or inflammations of the skin. They are commonly caused by clogged or infected pores. They may appear as deeper lumps (cysts or nodules) on the face, neck, chest, back and sometimes shoulders.

 

FOOT DISORDER


More and more Americans are facing common foot problems and more serious foot conditions everyday.

The American Podiatric Medical Association recently conducted a study with alarming results – it revealed that some 75% of Americans will undergo some type of foot problems in their lives. Most of these foot-related problems stem from abuse, and some are caused by congenital malformations and disabilities.

Foot Health PictureThe human foot is one of the best-engineered parts of the body. Each foot has 33 joints, eight arches, 26 bones, more than a hundred muscles, ligaments, and tendons that all work together to distribute body weight and allow movement. Unfortunately, many people pay no attention to their feet – until they start to hurt.

 

A HEALTHY Way Of Living



Healthy eating is not about strict nutrition philosophies, staying unrealistically thin, or depriving yourself of the foods you love. Rather, it’s about feeling great, having more energy, and keeping yourself as healthy as possible– all of which can be achieved by learning some nutrition basics and using them in a way that works for you.
Healthy eating begins with learning how to “eat smart”—it’s not just what you eat, but how you eat. Your food choices can reduce your risk of illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, as well as defend against depression. Additionally, learning the habits of healthy eating can improve your health by boosting your energy, sharpening your memory and stabilizing your mood. Expand your range of healthy food choices and learn how to plan ahead to create and maintain a satisfying, healthy diet.

 


Intestinal disorders can occur anywhere along the length of the gastrointestinal tract, from the mouth to the anus. The process of breaking down food begins in the mouth and continues in the stomach and small intestine. The small intestine is also where the body absorbs nutrients. The large intestine runs from the small intestine to the anus and is also responsible for the absorption of nutrients and water.

 

TEETH CARE

What causes the pain in Tooth Sensitivity ?

Sensitive teeth has become one of the most common teeth problems as people keep their original teeth longer. Gums are receding by age exposing the tooth below the gumline where dentin is covered by cementum that is much softer than the enamel of the tooth crown.

 

Abnormal discharge from vagina or penis



Symptoms and indications: Early symptoms include enlargement of lymph glands and spleen, fever, fatigue, bruising and bleeding easily, Thrush-type infections, diarrhoea and weight loss, dermatitis and respiratory illnesses. Later, a person develops further serious infections or cancers.
 

VAGINISMUS



Simply put, the so-called condition refers to an instance when a woman's muscles in the vagina clamp down on a man's penis so firmly that they lock inseparably in sexual intercourse.
Penis captivus is said to be common among animals (such as dogs), but not humans. The so-called condition may have a "largely hearsay" existence in medical history but is "not entirely mythical," a study by the British Medical Journal (BMJ) showed.
"Such a reaction cannot be dismissed offhand as impossible. It is theoretically quite possible. Yet it does not seem to have occurred in the past 100 years or so," BMJ said in the study, which was released in 1979.
BMJ continued, "If there had been, during that time, a case of penis captivus that needed medical intervention or admission to hospital it would have been eagerly reported in a medical journal with as much detail and evidence as possible. It is in the absence of any such reports which suggests that penis captivus is not only a rare but also a relatively transient symptom with consequences that are less than sensational than those fabricated by rumor."
