Title: Sulfa allergies: Overview and what to avoid Headings: What to know about sulfa allergies What to know about sulfa allergies Symptoms Medications that contain sulfa Medications to avoid Sulfa vs. sulfite allergy Complications Anaphylaxis Stevens-Johnson syndrome Treatment Outlook Content: It is not clear why some people react to sulfa medications. However, people who are living with HIV or AIDS may be more likely to have a sulfa allergy. Medications that contain sulfa People have used sulfa-containing since 1936 to treat bacterial infections. Today, sulfa is present in many medications, including eye drops, burn creams, and vaginal suppositories. Medications to avoid Share on Pinterest Sulfa is a constituent of some medications. A person who thinks they have a sulfa allergy should either avoid the following medications or talk to their doctor about taking any of them: antibiotic combination drugs, such as trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Septra and Bactrim) and erythromycin-sulfisoxazole dapsone, a treatment for leprosy, dermatitis, and some types of pneumonia sulfasalazine (Azulfidine), which treats Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and ulcerative colitis sulfacetamide (BLEPH-10), which are eye drops for treating eye infections sulfadiazine silver (Silvadene), a cream that doctors prescribe to treat burn infections However, not every medication that contains sulfonamides will trigger a reaction in people with a sulfa allergy. People should discuss with their doctor whether it is safe to use the following medications. The doctor should evaluate the benefits on a case-by-case basis, as there may be cross-reactivity in some instances. These include:

Title: Could eating yogurt reduce inflammation? Headings: Could eating yogurt reduce inflammation? Could eating yogurt reduce inflammation? Could dairy be the answer? Gut bacteria and endotoxins Content: Could dairy be the answer? Over the years, there has been much debate surrounding dairy and its role in inflammation. Some believe that it is anti-inflammatory, while others say the reverse. So, in the search for a definitive answer, researchers from the University of Wisconsin-Madison put yogurt to the test. The study was headed up by Brad Bolling, an assistant professor of food science. Regarding the dairy debate, he says: “There have been some mixed results over the years, but [a recent article] shows that things are pointing more toward anti-inflammatory, particularly for fermented dairy.” At this stage, before we dive into the details, it is worth noting that the research was funded by the National Dairy Council. They are a non-profit organization who are supported by the United States Department of Agriculture’s national dairy checkoff program, the objective of which is to promote dairy products. However, the research is presented in two papers that are published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Nutrition and the British Journal of Nutrition.

However, the research is presented in two papers that are published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Nutrition and the British Journal of Nutrition. Gut bacteria and endotoxins Yogurt is thought to reduce inflammation by improving the integrity of the intestinal lining. And, by bolstering this layer of tissue, endotoxins — produced by gut bacteria — cannot cross into the bloodstream and promote inflammation. To examine the potential benefits of yogurt on inflammation, in the scientists’ first experiment, they recruited 120 premenopausal women, half of whom were obese. Half of the participants were asked to eat 12 ounces of low-fat yogurt each day for 9 weeks while the others ate a non-dairy pudding instead. Throughout the experiment, at various points in time, the researchers took blood samples and assessed them for biomarkers of endotoxins and inflammation.

Causes of the allergic reaction How do I know if I am allergic to bee stings? Symptoms Mild reaction Moderate allergic reaction Severe allergic reaction Treatment for bee sting allergies Treating a mild to moderate reaction Treating a severe reaction Long-term treatment Preventing bee sting allergies Outlook Content: Many people who react to insect stings will experience a mild to moderate allergic reaction in the form of localized redness and swelling. For a small minority of people, the allergic reaction can be much more severe, requiring emergency medical treatment. Fatal reactions are rare. The venom of honeybees, paper wasps, and yellow jackets tend to cause the most severe allergic reactions. Bees, wasps, and fire ants most commonly cause systemic allergic reactions, which spread all over the body, including the skin and respiratory system. Causes of the allergic reaction When a bee stings, its sharp, barbed stinger remains lodged in the skin. This stinger can release venom for up to a minute after the bee has stung. Bee venom contains proteins that affect the skin cells and immune system, resulting in pain and swelling at the site of the sting, even if a person is not allergic to the venom. In those who are allergic to bee stings, the venom triggers a more severe immune system reaction. These people may not have an allergic reaction the first time they are stung but may have an allergic reaction to a second bee sting.

Title: Time restricted eating: Does it work, plus beginner's tips Headings: Is time-restricted eating effective for weight loss? Is time-restricted eating effective for weight loss? What is time-restricted eating? Does time-restricted eating work? Gaining muscle and time-restricted eating Beginner’s guide to time-restricted eating Starting gradually Exercising without overdoing it Focusing on protein and fiber Avoiding worrying about setbacks Outlook Content: Studies have suggested that restricting feeding periods to less than 6 hours is unlikely to offer additional advantages over more extended feeding periods. Exercising without overdoing it It is tempting to start a vigorous exercise plan alongside a diet for faster results. However, with time-restricted eating, this could make the fasting period more difficult. People may wish to keep their existing exercise program the same until their body adjusts to the new eating plan. This can help to avoid increased hunger from extra workouts, which could cause diet burnout or failure. Focusing on protein and fiber Hunger can be difficult for people who do not have experience of fasting for several hours each day. Choosing foods rich in fiber and protein during the eating window can help to combat this. These nutrients help a person feel full and can prevent a blood sugar crash or food cravings. For example, eat whole-grain bread and pasta rather than white or refined grains. Choose a snack which includes protein in the form of lean meat, egg, tofu, or nuts.

Title: Do moon phases have any effect on human health? Headings: Can the moon really influence your health? Can the moon really influence your health? The moon and menstrual cycles The moon and sleep The moon and mental health Content: The team got the idea to look at any correlations with moon phases only later. “ We just thought of it after a drink in a local bar one evening at full moon, years after the study was completed,” they write in their paper. The analysis the investigators then conducted suggested that immediately before and after a full moon, participants took about 5 minutes longer, on average, to fall asleep, and their sleep duration fell by about 20 minutes. Their sleep was also lighter than usual, and melatonin levels also dropped close to the full moon, the researchers note. The researchers could not explain these changes by exposure to bright moonlight since the participants slept in fully dark, controlled environments. “The lunar cycle seems to influence human sleep, even when one does not ‘see’ the moon and is not aware of the actual moon phase,” Cajochen told the BBC. The moon and mental health Another widely held notion has it that the moon influences mood and psychiatric health, and that the full moon, in particular, can make people more aggressive. Share on Pinterest Recent evidence disproves the notion that certain moon phases could make people more aggressive. In folklore, the full moon triggers the metamorphosis from human to wolf of the werewolf, a mythical creature that reflects our ongoing fascination with the “bestial” potential of humans. English words denoting madness or eccentricity, such as “moony,” “lunatic,” or “lunacy,” all have Old English or Latin roots meaning “moon.”

Treatment Fillers Facial implants Rhinoplasty Home remedies Makeup Eyelid tape Can facial exercises help? Summary Content: Torticollis Also known as twisted neck, or wryneck, torticollis refers to abnormal positioning of neck muscles, causing the head to tilt. Sometimes torticollis occurs while in the womb, resulting in some facial asymmetry when a baby is born. Some sources report that it affects 3 in every 100 babies. Eye weaknesses may also cause a person to tilt their neck to see better, resulting in muscles growing stronger on one side of the neck. Many cases of torticollis are temporary, and the signs go away over time. How common is it? According to a 2015 study Trusted Source , facial asymmetry is common in the overall population. The same paper refers to previous studies that reported that 12–37% of orthodontic patients in the United States had an asymmetrical face. When researchers assessed patients’ radiographic examination, they found that prevalence rose above 50%. This could suggest that asymmetry is more common than people think, and many people may not even realize that they have asymmetrical features.

Summary Content: Some studies Trusted Source have also found that having a strong support network may even combat depression. On socioeconomic status According to the American Psychological Association, socioeconomic status can directly affect both physical and mental health. Researchers have linked low socioeconomic status and a lack of economic development to poor health and a shorter life expectancy. Physical health According to a 2017 analysis Trusted Source of 1.7 million people, having a low socioeconomic status can be as bad for a person’s health as smoking, drinking a lot of alcohol, or eating an unhealthful diet. People with low socioeconomic status are also more likely to have avoidable medical procedures and hospitalizations, as well as conditions that go untreated. Mental health Reduced access to housing, employment, and mortgage lending due to low socioeconomic status can adversely affect mental health and increase feelings of depression, stress, and anxiety. Although Hispanic and African American people seem to have a lower risk of mental health conditions than those in other racial or ethnic groups, those who do develop such conditions tend to have more persistent psychological issues. However, it is worth noting that this perceived lower risk may be due to racial inequities in the healthcare system. Also, although there is an association between socioeconomic status and race, there is not perfect correspondence between race and low socioeconomic status. Indeed, even among BIPOC of middle and upper socioeconomic status, the effects of racism on mental and physical health persist.

Indeed, even among BIPOC of middle and upper socioeconomic status, the effects of racism on mental and physical health persist. Summary Racism can be a key factor in the onset of physical and mental health issues in BIPOC. Research suggests that the stress that develops due to experiencing or witnessing racism can have long lasting effects, increasing the risk of chronic disease and mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression in both children and adults. Utilizing the support of peers and community, forging a strong sense of racial identity, and talking about racist experiences can all be effective ways of coping with the stress of racism. Research suggests that low socioeconomic status has the same impact on physical health as smoking, heavy alcohol use, or an unhealthful diet. Racial groups with higher levels of low socioeconomic status also tend to have more persistent mental health conditions.

Symptoms Causes Baxter’s neuropathy Morton’s neuroma Tarsal tunnel syndrome Peripheral neuropathy Diabetic neuropathy Sciatica Treatment Home care strategies Medical treatments Diagnosis When to contact a doctor Summary Content: The pain may be burning, stabbing, or tingling, or it may feel like an electric shock. It may extend to the back of the foot or leg, causing cramping. Some people also experience numbness between their toes. Common causes Trusted Source of Morton’s neuroma include: wearing narrow shoes wearing high heels inflammation of the joints thickening of foot ligaments injury to the front of the feet, such as from high-impact sports or jogging lipomas — lumps beneath the skin that contain an overgrowth of fat cells Tarsal tunnel syndrome Tarsal tunnel syndrome causes pain in the feet and legs due to compression of the posterior tibial nerve, which runs down the back of the lower leg, or the plantar nerves in the feet. Researchers currently do not know Trusted Source how common this condition is, as doctors often underdiagnose it. However, it appears to be more common in females. Symptoms of tarsal tunnel syndrome include: sharp, shooting pain in the inner ankle and along the foot numbness on the underside of the foot pain when flexing and moving the foot a tingling or burning sensation The symptoms may worsen at night, while walking or standing, or after physical activity.

Preventing mental health conditions Treating mental health conditions The scientists found no significant difference in depressive episodes compared with a placebo after 12 months. What about supplements? The big question is, ‘Why?’ The complexity of mental health The take-home message Content: Furthermore, only 8% of individuals in the control group achieved remission, compared with 32% of those in the diet group. Although these results seem promising, the SMILES study was a small, short-term study. As a result, larger, longer term studies are necessary to apply its findings to a larger population. Replicating the findings is important because not all research agrees with them. For instance, in a study Trusted Source that recruited 1,025 adults with overweight or obesity and at least mild depressive symptoms, researchers investigated the impact of both a multinutrient supplement and food-related behavioral activation on mental health outcomes. The scientists found no significant difference in depressive episodes compared with a placebo after 12 months. In the same year, though, a meta-analysis Trusted Source of 16 randomized controlled studies did find that dietary interventions significantly reduced symptoms of depression, but not those of anxiety. It is, therefore, difficult to draw solid conclusions from the existing body of research, particularly as the type of dietary intervention under investigation has varied greatly among studies. Overall, more research is needed on the topic of specific dietary patterns and the treatment of mental health conditions. In particular, there is a need for a more standardized definition of a healthful diet, as well as for larger, long-term studies.

Talking openly about racism and racist experiences with those of a shared identity can help people work through feelings of stress, frustration, and anger. Additionally, having a support network can help people manage mental health conditions such as depression by reducing isolation and encouraging hope. Leaning into cultural identity One 2003 study suggests that having a strong sense of racial identity can be protective against psychological distress due to discrimination. How a person explores their racial identity is unique to them, but learning the history of one’s family or community, taking part in cultural activities or traditions, and finding positive role models can all play a part.

Alcohol blackouts Symptoms Treatment Syncope blackouts Treatment Diagnosis Epilepsy blackouts Symptoms Treatment Diagnosis Can stress cause blackouts? Treatment Diagnosis Can medication cause blackouts? When to see a doctor Summary Content: If anyone feels as though they are about to faint, they should sit or lie down so that they do not injure themselves if they fall unconscious. Diagnosis If a person is experiencing syncope blackouts, a doctor may request an electrocardiogram (EKG) to see whether there are any underlying problems with the heart. They may also order a tilt test. During this test, a person lies down on a board that moves to change their position while healthcare professionals measure their blood pressure and heart rate. Epilepsy blackouts A disturbance of neuronal activity in the brain can cause an epileptic episode. During these episodes, people may experience a seizure. Their muscles may contract, and they could lose consciousness. However, just because a person has epilepsy, it does not necessarily mean that they will blackout when they have a seizure. The disorder is a spectrum, and it covers many other symptoms. Symptoms Many different symptoms could accompany epileptic blackouts, depending on the type of seizure that a person is experiencing.

Share on Pinterest An ultrasound can help detect the fetal heartbeat Before about week 8 of pregnancy, a doctor may refer to the fetus as an embryo. The heart of an embryo starts to beat from around 5–6 weeks of pregnancy. Also, it may be possible to see the first visible sign of the embryo, known as the fetal pole, at this stage. The heart of a fetus is fully developed by the 10th week Trusted Source of pregnancy. Learn more about the development of the heart from weeks 5–10 below: Week of pregnancy Level of heart development 5th week The developing heart is made up of two tubes that have fused in the middle, creating a trunk with four tubes branching off. The heart begins to beat, and it may be possible to detect it using vaginal ultrasound. 6th week The heart of the embryo has changed dramatically — the basic heart tube has looped, forming an S-shape and creating an area for the ventricles. 7th week The ventricles and atria of the heart begin to separate and develop.

As people live longer, demand for qualified health professionals also increases. A bachelor’s of science in health science (BSHS) degree can prepare medical professionals for a range of roles in healthcare management, research, and education. Health science is a class of applied science embracing various disciplines including anatomy, microbiology, physiology, neurophysiology, epidemiology, immunology, microbiology, and clinical practices. Research, experimentation, and analytical skills are especially helpful. While the convenience and flexibility of an online degree program may be attractive to many, it’s important to note that online BSHS programs typically are bachelor’s completion programs, and require applicants to have a qualifying associate degree, generally in a medical technology field. Therefore these distance-based degree programs best suit students with the hands-on clinical experience that comes from earning an associate degree. For example, Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) offers a standout online BSHS degree “designed exclusively for professionals with an associate degree in the allied health field.” In sum, a distance-based BSHS degree may be a stepping stone for nurses, EMTs, technicians, and other healthcare workers to gain a bachelor’s degree and move into more advanced roles with leadership or managerial potential. Health scientists research and discover information that helps healthcare professionals to provide effective, safe healthcare and health promotion.

Title: Antibiotics 101: Side Effects & Facts Headings: Antibiotics 101 Antibiotics 101 Antibiotics 101 7 important facts about antibiotics Health Solutions From Our Sponsors Content: Sharing any prescription medications is a dangerous practice and can even be deadly. Likewise, never "save up" antibiotics for your own later use. Antibiotics generally work rapidly. Be sure to ask your doctor when to expect results and find out what you should do if you experience no improvement after a couple of days. Antibiotics can cause a number of side effects. Nausea, diarrhea, and allergic reactions are some known side effects of antibiotics. Antibiotics also may kill naturally-occurring bacteria that protect the body from yeast infection, so yeast infections may occur while you are taking antibiotics. Be sure to ask your doctor what kind of side effects you may experience with a particular antibiotic. Always call your doctor if the side effects are severe or worrisome. If your doctor directs you to stop taking an antibiotic or switch to a different antibiotic, properly dispose of all unused medication.
