Our General Surgery team treats hernia patients on a daily basis. In fact, you could consider them to be hernia experts. We sat down with one of those experts, Dr. Heater Dunlap, to talk about the common signs and symptoms of hernias and to answer the question of when to see a doctor.
As you consider Fort HealthCare and our Pediatric Surgical Services, here is a quick tour to give you and your child an idea of what to expect.
We look forward to helping you.

symptoms of kidney dysfunction. I find kidney dysfunction in my patients very frequently. Lower back pain is a common indicator that the kidneys are starting to become irritated. Yes, lower back pain can come from many different areas, but one of the areas I always rule out is kidney congestion.
Finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint collateral ligament sprains should not be overtreated. First-degree sprains may require a brief period of protection, usually consisting of buddy taping for 2-3 weeks. Second-degree sprains are immobilized in mid flexion for 3 weeks. Finger MCP joint hyperextension injuries may be treated by gently flexing the proximal phalanx and immobilizing the MCP joint in 30° of flexion for 2-3 weeks. A dorsal extension-block splint protects the healing volar plate while allowing active flexion of the finger. Early protected motion minimizes postinjury stiffness. Thumb MCP joint hyperextension injuries ("locked MCP joint") are immobilized in 20° MCP joint flexion for 3 weeks.
Abortion pills can help one to terminate pregnancy at home without letting others know- which is very true. But if you are not cautions enough, it wouldn’t be secured, doing in private. This might be due to the nosy neighbor or friends who peep up any time in the day. Arrange things for and take precautions, to avoid getting your private affair publicly few seconds.

Prostate biopsy is a procedure in which small hollow needle-core samples are removed from a man's prostate gland to be examined microscopically for the presence of cancer. It is typically performed when the result from a PSA blood test rises to a level that is associated with the possible presence of prostate cancer.
Ever considered getting laser eye surgery, but didn’t know how it worked? Allow us to help!
There are three different main types of laser eye surgery: LASIK, SMILE, and Surface Laser Treatments, and each can be explained pretty easily.
LASIK uses two lasers to open up a thin flap on the surface of the cornea, and then reshapes the cornea underneath. The flap is then placed back over the reshaped cornea, and heals independently with time.
SMILE uses one laser to reshape the cornea through a small, self-healing hole.
And Surface Eye Treatments remove the clear skin over the eye, to then reshape the cornea underneath with - you guessed it - a laser!
Homan’s sign test also called dorsiflexon sign test is a physical examination procedure that is used to test for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). A positive Homan’s sign in the presence of other clinical signs may be a quick indicator of DVT. Clinical evaluation alone cannot be relied on for patient management, but when carefully performed, it remains useful in determining the need for additional testing (like D-dimer test, ultrasonography, multidetector helical computed axial tomography (CT), and pulmonary angiography) [1][2].

This video illustrates an IM injection for deltoid muscle.
Note that vaccines and other medications can be administered through the deltoid muscle. I will give you some tips through this video.
It is important to check your client’s details such as their medication, time, dose, and the route to be used. Different research works are subject to change the protocols for insertion thus, it is necessary to be up to date with the current changes.
Assemble all the supplies and conduct hand sanitation. Usually, I wear gloves before giving any injection in as much as the CDC may state it is optional unless the patient has an open lesion and contact of body fluids is likely to happen.
Use the acromion process landmark to locate the deltoid muscle. Move your fingers about two widths below the landmark. The patient’s adipose tissue determines the choice of needle length. Note that the needle gauge is determined by the type of medication you plan to give to the patient.
The Z-track technique is recommended rather than pinching the patient’s skin. Pull the patient’s skin to the side using one hand. Use a 90 degree angle to insert the needle to the patient’s skin. At the rate of 10 seconds per mL gently depress the plunger.
Remove the needle carefully and engage the safety precautions then dispose of the needle appropriately in the sharps container. Gauzing helps to cover the injection site.
