Baby in Hospital

December 13th, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

Baby sickness – is always a hard trial for family, and if the matter concerns baby’s hospitalization, then you can become panic-stricken only at the thought of the fact that a baby will be estranged from his family, painful procedures expect him, and strangers will surround him. 

Because of hospitalization, a baby can get the whole complex of serious psychological problems, caused by sickness, isolation from home and conditions of hospital. Even adult person experiences stress, when he needs to apply to a doctor and moreover, while necessity of long staying in hospital. Needless to say about baby’s stress! Strange atmosphere, strange people, new, constantly renewed children collective, forced separation from parents, fear of medical procedures – all this is quite enough for psychological discomfort. And all these factors accompany symptoms of disease.
 
However, you shouldn’t dramatize situation. Of course, disease and necessity of hospitalization – are traumatizing factors.  But for majority of children staying at hospital can become an important stage in formation of personality, bring lots of new impressions and knowledge, and give possibility to try themselves in difficult life circumstances. This experience will be useful in further life of a child.
 
Processes of adaptation are individual for each child. This depends on many reasons: whether he had diseases earlier, stage of disease, is he staying at hospital for the first time or not, baby’s age, whether he was separated from his family before etc. Often everything passes quite smoothly, due to presence of inner reserves of a baby and correct behavior of parents.
 
It’s quite normal, if period of adaptation at hospital lasts during 3-5 days. There’re no reasons for anxiety, if a baby is rather careless during first days of hospitalization, asks to take him home, gets into contact with coevals not at once. Excess care and parental inclination for dramatizing situation can only damage. On the other hand, you shouldn’t leave a baby alone with his problems. He shouldn’t feel abandoned and lonely.

Quite often parents of sick children need more psychological help, then children themselves, as it is their correct behavior that influences a baby’s mood for recovery.
 
Here’re several recommendations of experts. Never frighten your baby with hospital. Don’t create future problems, as there’s hardly any baby, who hasn’t been at hospital for his life. During conversations with other people avoid such phrases, like: “There doctors hardly understand something, I wish only they don’t harm my child” etc.
 
In case of baby hospitalization do your best to reduce stress and melancholy because of coming separation from home and parents. Adults themselves should be confident in future, calm and wise, so that a baby would treat staying at hospital calmly. If hospitalization is planned and you have at least 1-2 days for preparation, involve baby in preparations, as if he would be going to health centre or camp.
 
Try to dispose your baby to optimism. Children have great intuition, and it’s almost impossible to persuade them in things, which you don’t believe yourself in. So, first of all you should analyze your own emotions and forget about affirmation: “Hospital – pain, fear, danger”. Replace it by “Hospital – help, relieve, recovery”. You confidence and peace of mind will be passed to your daughter and son. Talk to your child about coming hospitalization softly-softly. You can explain to schoolchild, that sickness is not a catastrophe, but a peculiar exam for courage and firmness. Tell your child that you will be thinking of him constantly and you’re always ready to help him. Think and discuss ways of your contacts.
 
During separation avoid touching scenes, restrain excessive emotions. Try to behave the way, so that a baby would treat hospital not as punishment, but as a place, where he will be helped to recover sooner and return to usual life. Form positive attitude, both to improvement of health and doctors’ work. Explain your child an objective necessity of medical assistance.
 
Don’t persuade him that he is guilty of his sickness, trauma etc. himself. By doing this, you will increase sense of guilt and fear, which can cause undesirable psychological complications. Of course, there’re situations, when it is important to discuss wrong behavior of a child, which caused disease.  But it is also very important that a result of your conversation would be not a sense of guilt, but understanding of cause and effect connection between wring behavior and disease.
 
Discuss schedule of visiting a child with relatives for sure, to avoid situations, when there’re several visits per one day and no visits at all other day. This is very important, as excess of visitors can lead to emotional overloads of a sick baby, and their absence – to increase of longing for home and relatives.
 
Try not to hung up on topic of disease and treatment. Life goes on. Ask your child about his new friends, news, what he does in spare time. Keep all your doubts concerning effectiveness of treatment inside of you. Don’t overload patient with your doubts and fears. As medicine, which you doubt, will not help, as doctor, whom you don’t trust, won’t be able to help. Try to avoid unpleasant topics, wait a little with information about bad news: sick baby need not to know that his favorite doggie eats bad or that cat ate hamster. While talking to a baby, pay attention to positive moments of staying at hospital. Think about things you can compliment him for: he bears procedures with fortitude, doesn’t play about, could make friends with somebody, drew a good picture etc.
 
Unfilled spare time increases feeling of loneliness, longing for home. So you should definitely worry about things your child should do. Bring him an interesting book, meccano, some new game, paints, crayons etc. Bring a toy for a small baby surely. You can tell that a new “friend” came to him specially to protect him at nights (if a baby is predisposed to night fears). It will be very good, if you bring him a toy bear, elephant, lion, tiger, i.e. any big animal, which will be able to personify power and protection (size of toy is not important).

After discharge talk to your baby about time he spent at hospital. Ask him about things he learned to do, what he understood about himself and his relations with other people, help him to realize value of experience he gained.

How to Avoid Muscle Soreness

December 12th, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

The day or two after a workout, you will almost certainly feel some muscle soreness.  This dull ache and pain is natural, and isn’t something you should be worried about.  However, just because you shouldn’t worry about it, doesn’t mean you ought to just put up with it.  Nobody needs to feel uncomfortable after a workout.  There are two surefire ways to avoid muscle soreness: stretching and providing your body with protein.  Best of all, both of these are natural, not chemical.  

In order to understand how to avoid the aches and pains of muscle soreness, it’s important to understand where it comes from.  Many people think that muscle soreness is the result of lactic acid buildup around the muscles.  However, recent research has shown that this isn’t actually true.  Your muscles do produce lactic acid during strenuous activity; but that lactic acid typically drains and dissolves within thirty minutes to one hour after ceasing the workout and activity.  So what causes the soreness if it isn’t lactic acid?  Most experts agree that during strenuous activity your muscles become damaged.  One way is that your muscles can get inflamed and swollen because of the increased blood flow during strenuous activity, thereby exciting the pain receptors nearby.  Another way is that muscle fibers are torn and damaged when the muscle is doing the work.  This tear and inflammation is what causes most of the muscle ache that people feel after their workouts.  And it is something that you can prevent.  

While many people deal with the ache and pain of muscle soreness using chemical anti-inflammatory drugs like acetaminophen, aspirin or ibuprofen.  These drugs can help reduce pain caused by inflammation and swelling, but they don’t do anything to strengthen muscles or repair the damage muscle tissue.  Instead of resorting to a chemical “band-aid” fix; stretching and proper nutrition can deal with the problem head on.

The importance of stretching to maintaining a healthy lifestyle is immense.  Most importantly, stretching does three things that help deal with muscle ache.  First, stretching increases joint flexibility and range of motion; this helps avoid wear and tear on ligaments and tendons in joints.  Second, stretching is a great way to reduce muscle tension.  Flexible and elastic muscles aren’t as easily torn or damaged as stiff and static muscle.  The most important benefit of stretching is that it increases circulation (blood flow) which helps increase energy output on the muscles.  Stretching before exercising will help maximize the exercise by warming up muscle groups and moving the blood to make sure muscles are well oxygenated.  Post-exercise stretching helps to remove the lactic acid buildup, and also to maintain healthy blood flow to the muscle groups.  This blood flow is how the body delivers amino acids to the damaged muscle tissue; amino acids are what repair the damage.  

The best way to get amino acids into the body is through protein in your diet and the easiest way to get protein after a workout is through a whey protein shake.  Whey protein shakes have two benefits: they are whey-based, and they are shakes.  Whey protein is easily digestible and soft on the body compared to other supplemental protein sources.  And getting protein in the form of a shake provides the added benefit of hydrating a sore body, which helps flush out impurities and promotes healing.  Good stretching and whey protein can make muscle ache disappear: reducing the need for chemical pain relievers and helping you get back in the gym.

Are bites and stings dangerous?

December 12th, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

Animal and insect bites and stings are relatively common minor injuries. Usually, they will heal on their own and will not cause serious or permanent damage, but they can be serious and it is important to know appropriate first aid measures.

What are the possible complications of bites and stings?

Many animal bites result in puncture wounds – deep wounds that penetrate the tissue underneath the skin and cause internal damage. The germs from the animal’s mouth can then be carried deep into the wound and may cause serious infections.

The adder is the only poisonous snake in the UK, and although the venom can be fatal, the number of recorded deaths is very small indeed.

There is one serious complication of insect stings. A small percentage of people can develop a life- threatening allergic reaction called anaphylactic shock, where airways become swollen and reduce the air getting to the lungs. The symptoms of anaphylactic shock are red, blotchy skin with raised areas, swelling of the face and neck, puffiness around the eyes, wheezing and difficulty breathing, rapid pulse and loss of consciousness. Anaphylactic shock is a very serious condition and requires immediate hospital treatment.

What should I do if someone has been bitten or stung?

First, assess the seriousness of the bite or sting.

Serious bites and stings

If the bite is large and/or bleeding heavily, take the person to the nearest GP or hospital, or call 999 for an ambulance

If the person has been stung in the mouth, give them ice to suck on and phone 999 for an ambulance

If you suspect the person is going into anaphylactic shock, call for an ambulance immediately. Check the person’s ABC (see box bellow) and if necessary (and you are trained to do so), perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation

You should be aware that coming into contact with blood and body fluids may expose you to infections such as hepatitis B and C, and HIV. If the bite is bleeding, do not touch it with your bare hands. Ideally, put on a pair of disposable, preferably sterile gloves: if you do not have a first aid box to hand or you do not have disposable gloves, use another type of barrier, such as a thickly folded dish towel or clean handkerchief, and wash you hands thoroughly before and after touching the person.

Minor animal bites

Wash the wound with warm water and soap, if possible

Pat the wound dry, and cover it with a plaster or small dressing, or any piece of clean, non-textured cloth that you have to hand

If the person has been bitten by an animal, check with its owners about current immunisations. The person who has been bitten should see their doctor about a tetanus immunisation. Afterwards, keep an eye on the wound for signs of infection (redness, swelling and heat concentrated at the site of the wound).

If the person has been bitten by a snake, keep the wounded area below the level of the heart and do not allow the person to walk around, as this will spread the venom through the body. If you can, immobilise the injured area using strips of cloth and padding tied into a splint. Call an ambulance.

Minor insect bites and stings

Bites from insects such as mosquitoes, fleas or flies usually do not require medical attention. Even stings from bees, wasps or hornets, although painful and frightening, are not usually serious.

If the stinger it still there, remove it by scraping a credit card over the surface; do not try to remove it with tweezers – you may squeeze more venom out of the venom sac into the wound

Apply a cold compress (any clean cloth soaked in cold water will do) to reduce the pain and swelling

A paste of baking soda mixed with water can help to relieve the pain.

If the pain and swelling do not go away, or if it gets worse over the next day or two, the person should see a doctor

As mentioned above, if you suspect the person is having an allergic reaction to a sting (anaphylactic shock) you must phone for an ambulance immediately.

What can I do to prevent bites and stings?

There are several measures you can take to reduce the likelihood of being bitten or stung:

Do not approach wild animals, especially if they seem injured

Avoid strange cats and dogs

Do not wear strong perfume, which will attract bees and wasps

Use an insect repellent

Take care when eating and drinking: bees and wasps are attracted to sweet, sugary foods. Take particular care when drinking from cans of soft drink: always use a straw or pour the drink into a cup or glass

If you come across a wasp or bees’ nest, do not disturb it

Avoid dense forested areas in hot weather and in the height of summer.

Take a walking stick if you intend to walk through long grass or undergrowth: your stick will disturb a snake or other biting animal before you do

Wear protective clothing: long socks and long-sleeved garments will provide protection from bites and stings

Discussion About Weight Loss Problems

December 6th, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

Many weight loss problems are due to psychological factors, but some are due to external factors. It’s either your mind playing tricks on you, or a busy schedule that’s the issue normally.

When you think about it losing weight is a mental game. Your body tells your brain you are hungry, but your brain has the last say in if you are going to eat right then or not. You have to learn to control the way you think if you want to lose weight and keep it off.

You have to realize that your mind is in control of everything you do. If you can make eating less a mental habit, then your body will follow suit. One of the biggest weight loss problems is not having the right mindset to make eating differently than what you are used to a habit.

Once you form the habit of eating less healthy food, and start seeing results, you will have a much easier time continuing your weight loss efforts. When you get used to it losing weight will not seem that hard after awhile. It’s the introduction to eating less that’s the hardest part.

Another big issue is having limited time to spend on preparing food, and eating more often during the day. You will need to do some advance planning so that you don’t mess up your weight loss strategy.

You should have your meal times planned out ahead of time. It’s a good idea to make whatever meals you need to take to work ahead of time too instead of getting food on the go.

You shouldn’t wait until you’re hungry to go find something to eat somewhere. Most of the time you will end up eating more than you would if you had planned everything out beforehand.

Set a timer or a stop watch to know when you should be eating your next meal if you don’t have exact times when to eat planned out. This way you won’t wait too long and end up getting overly hungry. When you wait too long to eat while you are dieting it can have very negative effects on your diet because it’s much easier for you to over eat.

Bottom line about having a busy schedule is that you need to plan your meals in advance to be prepared to grab the meal and eat it in a timely manner, so that you can get back to whatever you were doing in the first place.

Another problem when dieting is when the people you live with are not on the same diet as you. If your are trying to eat healthy, but your family or room mates aren’t it can be hard to see them eating all the foods you want to eat.

Keeping the “bad” foods out of the house in the first place is the easiest way to stay on the right track. If you can persuade your family to eat better foods, even if they aren’t eating the same amount of meals a day you are it will be a huge step in the right direction.

They don’t have to eat at the same times as you, or maybe even the same foods in each meal, as long as you only have the right types of food in your household it will be a big plus.

These weight loss problems can be avoided if you take action, and know how to deal with them. Once you have a concrete plan in place it’s not as easy to get diverted from your weight loss goals.

Want To Know The Value of Conducting Your Own Fish Oil Review?

December 5th, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

It’s just unbelievable yet true! Fish oil supplements are now among the most popular health supplements in the world. This is because fish based oil has been identified as a good source of Omega 3 fatty acids that are known to provide a host of benefits to our body’s overall health. Before buying your own fish oil supplement, however, it is best that you conduct a personal fish oil review.

It is important to conduct a fish oil review because fish based oil products are now proliferating in the market and they are definitely not created equal. While some manufacturers voluntary submit themselves to quality tests and strictly follow pharmaceutical standards, there are also those who manufacture their pills via the cheapest possible means without regard to quality or safety.

Another good reason to conduct a review of fish based oil products prior to making a purchase is the fact that some fish oils contain very high levels of metal toxins like mercury. This means that choosing the wrong source of fish oil could lead you to more harm than good and your health could deteriorate rather than improve as a result. This is why you have to be very vigilant in choosing your fish oil supplement.

The most important factor you should consider in doing a fish oil review is the purity of the oil content of a particular fish based supplement. The best pills are those that contain pure Omega 3 fatty acids, preferably without any additives. And the best way to ensure that your supplement contains pure ingredients is to buy the ones that are considered pharmaceutical grade.

Strictly speaking, of course, there are no such things as pharmaceutical grade fish oil pills because health supplements in general are not required to undergo the same standards of quality as pharmaceutical drugs. Probably the highest standards that the health supplement industry can speak of are the likes of International Fish Oil Standards (IFO). There are, however, a few manufacturers who voluntary set their own standards based on those of pharmaceutical drugs and it is best to purchase supplements from these manufacturers.

The best way to check these things is to read the labels and any other source of information in regard to these products. Take special note of their Certificate of Analysis as this will show the exact amounts of trace minerals and mercury contained in the pills. This certificate will also reveal whether the supplement indeed contains the ingredients and nutrients that it claims to have as indicated in the label.

In conducting your own fish oil review, you should also check the manner in which the fish-oil content of the pill was purified. So far, molecular distillation is considered to be the most effective way of removing toxins from fish oils, or at least reducing them to levels that are safe for human consumption. Other methods and processes may not be as effective or as safe.

You should also check if the supplement has a special coating. Many manufacturers coat their pills with enteric and while this type of coating does not seem to have any negative side effects, neither has it shown any significant benefits and is more often used only to mask the rancidity of the fish oil. It may be better to choose supplements with water-based coating, which has been proven to be a lot safer than enteric.

In conclusion, the process of conducting your own fish oil review may be time-consuming and may require a lot of effort on your part. But in the long run, you will see its value when you start to enjoy the benefits from fish based oil and at the same time avoid the common risks that are associated with it. Your health, after all, is well worth the time and effort that it takes to review these products.

6 Tips For A Healthy Dinner Out

December 3rd, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

Ever wonder how you can possibly lose weight when the average dinner out contains over 1,000 calories? Well, don’t fret! Keeping yourself in shape when dining out is simply a matter of ordering the right menu.

Below are 6 tips for having a healthy dinner out (while still enjoying your meal like normal!):

- Watch Your Drinks – By not ordering an alcoholic beverage, you’ve saved yourself a considerable number of calories. Try sipping iced tea sweetened with a noncaloric sweetener, a diet soft drink, or water with lemon. You’ll be glad you did when you consider the calorie savings.

- Have A Salad – One of the best menus to have is salad. Not only will it fill you up so you’ll consume fewer calories overall, but it will also give you a hefty dose of antioxidants which are heart healthy. Be sure to ask your waitress to hold the croutons and cheese which will further reduce your caloric load. Also, choose your dressing wisely. Avoid cream based dressings and go for the vinegar based ones. You also have the option of using vinegar and olive oil which is heart healthy.

- Don’t Order An Appetizer Unless Necessary – Do you know that some appetizers have more calories and fat than the main course? Plus, many appetizers are fried and served with heavy sauces which will add to your intake of saturated fat as well as trans fats and calories. It’s not a healthy way to start your meal.

– Choose The Right Kind Of Foods – Go for broiled and grilled rather than fried. Not only will you save calories and fat grams, you’ll also avoid trans fats which are so prevalent in fried foods. Instead, consider asking for a doubles order of vegetables with your entree. Very few Americans are getting the 7-9 servings of fruits and vegetables recommended for optimal health. Plus, by avoiding the starch, you’ll be reducing your caloric and carbohydrate load. Also, stick to tomato based sauces rather than cream based and you’ll enjoy a considerable calorie savings. Lastly, ask for the sauce to be served in a separate dish on the side so you can control the amount you eat.

- Don’t Overeat – Today, many restaurants are serving larger quantities of food than in the past. If this is the case, put aside a portion of your entree at the beginning of the meal to take home with you. If you remove it from your plate before you start eating, you’ll be less tempted to overeat.

- Say “No” To Sugary, Fatty Desserts – Instead, go for a low fat or low carbohydrate dessert selection such as a low carb cheesecake. These are wise choices for the health conscious eater and still allow you to end the meal on a sweet note. If a healthy dessert option isn’t available, try a cup of coffee with skim milk to help satiate your desire for something sweet.

The next time you go out for dinner, keep the above tips in mind. You will be surprised how many calories you are able to slash out of your meal just by ordering the right menus! Happy healthy eating!

Three Important Factors that Cause Wrinkles & Some Must-Know Facts about Wrinkle Skin Care

December 2nd, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

Is your skin wrinkled and saggy? Are you looking for a good wrinkle remover cream? If your answer is yes, make sure you read this article in its entirety. There are some very important facts you should know before you choose an anti wrinkle cream.

A lot of people who look for anti wrinkle creams have no idea why their skin starts developing wrinkles and lines in the first place. Without understanding that, one cannot choose a good skin care product. So, let me first tell you something about wrinkle skin care.

There are three important causes of wrinkles – loss of collagen and elastin, loss of hyaluronic acid, and cell damage caused by free radicals. Let us take a look.

1. Loss of collagen and elastin – Collagen and elastin are natural proteins which keep your skin firm and young. When your skin is not able to produce sufficient amount of these proteins, it starts to lose its elasticity. It becomes loose and saggy and starts developing wrinkles and lines.

2. Loss of hyaluronic acid – Hyaluronic acid plays an important role in keeping your skin young and healthy. Due to the action of an enzyme called hyaluronidase, the amount of hyaluronic acid in your skin decreases rapidly. This is one of the most important reasons for the formation of wrinkles.

3. Cell damage caused by free radicals – If your body is not able to produce enough antioxidants to keep the free radicals at bay, they cause a lot of damage to your skin cells. It is one of the most important causes of aging.

As you can see, these three factors play a major role in aging skin. So, the wrinkle remover cream you choose should be able to treat not just the signs of aging skin, but also the causes.

You can find a large number of anti wrinkle creams on the market today. If you go by the advertisements you see on TV and in magazines and newspapers, you will be tempted to believe that all these products are incredibly effective. Actually, they are not. Most of these products contain only a smidgen of actual anti aging substances and a lot of cheap artificial chemicals which are neither effective nor safe. So, even if you use such wrinkle skin care products regularly, you are not likely to get any results.

If you are serious about skin health, you should avoid any product that contains chemicals like parabens, triclosans, alcohols, phenol carbolic acid, and artificial fragrance. These substances are known to trigger allergic reactions in people with sensitive skin. Also, they can cause a lot of health problems in the long term. Instead, use an organic wrinkle remover cream which contains natural substances like cynergy TK, phytessence wakame, and nano-lipobelle H EQ10 which are good for your skin and safe to use as well.

If you’re looking for a Wrinkle Remover Cream that you can trust, check out Kalpana’s website, http://www.naturalbeautyandskincare.com and see how it can change your perception about natural skin care products.

Sound Fish Oil Reviews Gaining Ground

December 1st, 2011  |  Published in Sexual Health

Fish oil reviews from experts and proper authorities in the field of science that deals with supplements and body nutrition have generally one stand on fish oils—that they are a good addition to medicine and health. People who write about their personal experiences with using fish oil capsules also can be said to be saying the same thing about its wonderful oil.

However, in this world, practically everything is rather two-faced and in as much as we try to be really on the positive side, the unsound ones just keep on getting as pressing.

Most fish oil reviews say the same thing about the good consequences of fish oils to health. The only difference lies in the brand to choose in the market. Of course the fish oil industry has now become an established niche in the entirety of the market; people have just to choose the best among the rest.

This is the clamor of most advertising about different brands of fish oils. The people who have the legitimate say on this matter, the medical experts, however, advise consumers to be really wise in choosing their own brands. For them, it is almost always safe and better to pick out the brand that is neither the most expensive nor the cheapest.

And since these fish oil reviews give hints that the highest qualities of fish oils could be found somewhere between the middle of the cost scale, people are usually led to better choices, thus, reaping the best of benefits. And who are we to refuse these advises even as they usually come unsolicited. In this jungle-like world of advertising through a lot of different media, it is normally better not to take cautions for granted.

Fish oil reviews likewise contain certain standards if you are a total dummy about the science of omega 3 and fish oils. Blogs and review sites and even medical journals include certain specific recommendations about how to choose their own brands.

Take for instance a review that listed in enumeration the common problems that can be encountered when one is hasty about his way of choosing his own brand of fish oil supplements. A listed problem is that most fish oils today that penetrate the market are very low in DHA. Another is that some could even bring about low turn out of health benefits.

On these, this particular review suggests a certain brand that is out in the market that he says, is supposedly the best brand and most beneficial to customers so far. Of course individuals and consumers can never avoid being skeptical when it comes to the aspect of trust. Either it is trust in the product, or trust in the advertiser that we are talking about.

On the issue of trust, as maintained initially, it is better to always consult the experts and real experiences of people who have been using the product for long. And these can normally be found easily on fish oil reviews that are being offered for free by websites, medical journals and bulletins, and even word-of-mouth.
