Sex reassignment surgery for male-to-female involves reshaping the male genitals into a form with the appearance of, and, as far as possible, the function of female genitalia. Prior to any surgeries, patients usually undergo hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and, depending on the age at which HRT begins, facial hair removal. There are associated surgeries patients may elect to, including facial feminization surgery, breast augmentation, and various other procedures.
Men and women have anatomical differences when it comes to genitals, but orgasms are fundamentally very similar. The female orgasm lasts longer than the male, ranging about 20 seconds compared to 3 to 10 seconds, but men do experience more orgasms.
Detailed examination of the joints is usually not included in the routine medical examination. However, joint related complaints are rather common, and understanding anatomy and physiology of both normal function and pathologic conditions is critically important when evaluating the symptomatic patient. By gaining an appreciation for the basic structures and functioning of the joint, you'll be able to "logic" your way thru the exam, even if you can't remember the eponym attached to each specific test!
Pediatric febrile seizures, which represent the most common childhood seizure disorder, exist only in association with an elevated temperature. Evidence suggests, however, that they have little connection with cognitive function, so the prognosis for normal neurologic function is excellent in children with febrile seizures. [1] Epidemiologic studies have led to the division of febrile seizures into 3 groups, as follows: Simple febrile seizures Complex febrile seizures Symptomatic febrile seizures Essential update: Starting MMR/MMRV vaccination earlier may reduce seizure risk In a case-series analysis of a cohort of 323,247 US children born from 2004 to 2008, Hambidge et al found that delaying the first dose of measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) or measles-mumps-rubella-varicella (MMRV) vaccine beyond the age of 15 months may more than double the risk of postvaccination seizures in the second year of life. [2, 3] In infants, there was no association between vaccination timing and postvaccination seizures. [3] In the second year of life, however, the incident rate ratio (IRR) for seizures within 7-10 days was 2.65 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.99-3.55) after first MMR doses at 12-15 months of age, compared with 6.53 (95% CI, 3.15-13.53) after first MMR doses at 16-23 months. For the MMRV vaccine, the IRR for seizures was 4.95 (95% CI, 3.68-6.66) after first doses at 12-15 months, compared with 9.80 (95% CI, 4.35-22.06) for first doses at 16-23 months.
What Is a Paronychia (Nail Infection)? An infection that develops along the edge of the fingernail or toenail is called a paronychia (pear-ah-NIK-ee-ah). It is the most common hand infection and, if left untreated, can progress to a more severe infection of the entire finger or toe. Paronychia is distinguished from other infections such as onychomycosis and herpetic whitlow by its location and appearance.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) involves an immune-mediated process in which an abnormal response of the body’s immune system is directed against the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS is made up of the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves. Within the CNS, the immune system causes inflammation that damages myelin — the fatty substance that surrounds and insulates the nerve fibers — as well as the nerve fibers themselves, and the specialized cells that make myelin. When myelin or nerve fibers are damaged or destroyed in MS, messages within the CNS are altered or stopped completely. Damage to areas of the CNS may produce a variety of neurological symptoms that will vary among people with MS in type and severity The damaged areas develop scar tissue which gives the disease its name – multiple areas of scarring or multiple sclerosis. The cause of MS is not known, but it is believed to involve genetic susceptibility, abnormalities in the immune system and environmental factors that combine to trigger the disease. People with MS typically experience one of four disease courses. There are over a dozen treatments to help modify the MS disease process.

Rhinoplasty, sometimes referred to as a "nose job" or "nose reshaping" by patients, enhances facial harmony and the proportions of your nose. It can also correct impaired breathing caused by structural defects in the nose. What surgical rhinoplasty can treat Nose size in relation to facial balance Nose width at the bridge or in the size and position of the nostrils Nose profile with visible humps or depressions on the bridge Nasal tip that is enlarged or bulbous, drooping, upturned or hooked Nostrils that are large, wide or upturned Nasal asymmetry If you desire a more symmetrical nose, keep in mind that everyone's face is asymmetric to some degree. Results may not be completely symmetric, although the goal is to create facial balance and correct proportion. Rhinoplasty to correct a deviated septum Nose surgery that's done to improve an obstructed airway requires careful evaluation of the nasal structure as it relates to airflow and breathing. Correction of a deviated septum, one of the most common causes of breathing impairment, is achieved by adjusting the nasal structure to produce better alignment.
In multiple sclerosis, the immune system attacks the protective sheath called myelin, that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body. Eventually, the disease can cause the nerves to deteriorate or become damaged.

Intestino Irritable Tratamiento, Colon Irritable, Tratamiento Para El Colon Irritable--- http://intestino-irritable-tratamiento.plus101.com --- Si usted está sufriendo de Síndrome del Intestino Irritable SII, aquí hay una serie de técnicas y estrategias que se conocen para aliviar grandemente los síntomas a largo y corto plazo. La alimentación es la fuente de energía primordial que tenemos y es por eso que hay que darle una importancia suprema a la hora de querer atacar los síntomas del SII. Se recomienda el consumo de hierbas, tales como: manzanilla, consuelda, aceite de onagra, bálsamo de limón, hinojo, canela, nuez moscada, cúrcuma, todas las especias y enzimas digestivas. Todas ellas producen grandes beneficios para su organismo, dentro de los cuales destacamos: La manzanilla actúa como carminativo, así como calmante y agente tonificante para el tracto digestivo. Los aceites esenciales de manzanilla también han contribuido a aliviar cólicos intestinales e irritación en los animales. La manzanilla se toma normalmente tres veces al día, entre las comidas, en una forma de té. La consuelda tiene un uso como agente tópico para mejorar la cicatrización de heridas, úlceras en la piel, tromboflebitis y torceduras. También se utiliza para las personas con problemas gastrointestinales, como úlceras de estómago y el síndrome del intestino irritable, y para quienes sufren problemas pulmonares. Una combinación de menta, comino y otras dos hierbas carminativas (para aliviar los gases), semillas de hinojo y ajenjo, han resultado ser un tratamiento eficaz para los dolores abdominales. La acacia tiene un alto contenido de fibra y con frecuencia se recomienda para aliviar la irritabilidad intestinal. Las frutas como la papaya, el plátano, el mango, la piña, las fresas y los arándanos son altamente recomendables. Las verduras como las patatas dulces, la calabaza y las zanahorias no pueden dejar de ser parte de su dieta. Tenga cuidado con algunos de los medicamentos recetados para el SII ya que algunos de ellos han sido retirados del mercado debido a que contenían ingredientes tóxicos. Algunos ingredientes contenidos en medicamentos de venta libre para el resfriado también han demostrado efectos negativos en pacientes con SCI. Recomendamos las gotas de zinc como una alternativa durante un resfriado ya que no irrita el estómago y tiene visibles resultados de estímulo inmunológico. Los alimentos que se deben evitar: lácteos, huevos (especialmente la yema debido al alto contenido de grasa), brócoli, maíz, aceites hidrogenados, jarabe de maíz alto en fructosa, manzanas (debido al alto contenido de fructosa), frijoles, chocolate (debido a la cafeína) , café, té con cafeína.
