Peripheral Arterial Disease
Peripheral Arterial Disease samer kareem 2,523 Views • 2 years ago

Peripheral artery disease (P.A.D.) is a disease in which plaque builds up in the arteries that carry blood to your head, organs, and limbs. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, fibrous tissue, and other substances in the blood. When plaque builds up in the body's arteries, the condition is called atherosclerosis. Over time, plaque can harden and narrow the arteries. This limits the flow of oxygen-rich blood to your organs and other parts of your body. P.A.D. usually affects the arteries in the legs, but it also can affect the arteries that carry blood from your heart to your head, arms, kidneys, and stomach. This article focuses on P.A.D. that affects blood flow to the legs.

How to Treat Menorrhagia samer kareem 2,862 Views • 2 years ago

Specific treatment for menorrhagia is based on a number of factors, including: Your overall health and medical history The cause and severity of the condition Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures or therapies The likelihood that your periods will become less heavy soon Your future childbearing plans Effects of the condition on your lifestyle Your opinion or personal preference Drug therapy for menorrhagia may include: Iron supplements. If you also have anemia, your doctor may recommend that you take iron supplements regularly. If your iron levels are low but you're not yet anemic, you may be started on iron supplements rather than waiting until you become anemic. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) or naproxen (Aleve), help reduce menstrual blood loss. NSAIDs have the added benefit of relieving painful menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea). Tranexamic acid. Tranexamic acid (Lysteda) helps reduce menstrual blood loss and only needs to be taken at the time of the bleeding. Oral contraceptives. Aside from providing birth control, oral contraceptives can help regulate menstrual cycles and reduce episodes of excessive or prolonged menstrual bleeding. Oral progesterone. When taken for 10 or more days of each menstrual cycle, the hormone progesterone can help correct hormone imbalance and reduce menorrhagia. The hormonal IUD (Mirena). This intrauterine device releases a type of progestin called levonorgestrel, which makes the uterine lining thin and decreases menstrual blood flow and cramping. If you have menorrhagia from taking hormone medication, you and your doctor may be able to treat the condition by changing or stopping your medication.

For most cancers, researchers are still trying to understand how they are caused. The same is true for lymphoma - doctors do not know what causes it, although it is more likely to occur in certain people.5,7,8 Medical researchers have identified certain risk factors that make lymphoma more likely, although they often do not understand why:5,8 Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma Age - most non-Hodgkin lymphomas are in people 60 years of age and over Sex - there are different rates of different types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma across the sexes Ethnicity and location - in the US, African-Americans and Asian-Americans are less prone than white Americans, and the disease is more common in developed nations of the world Chemicals and radiation - some chemicals used in agriculture have been linked, as has nuclear radiation exposure Immune deficiency - for example, caused by HIV infection or in organ transplantation Autoimmune disease, in which the immune system attacks the body's own cells Infection - certain viral and bacterial infections increase the risk. The Helicobacter Infection has been implicated, as has the Epstein Barr Virus (the virus that causes glandular fever)13 See the American Cancer Society's page for more detail on risk factors for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Hodgkin's lymphoma Infectious mononucleosis - infection with Epstein-Barr virus Age - two specific groups are most affected: typically people in their 20s, and people over the age of 55 years Sex - slightly more common in men Location - most common in the US, Canada and northern Europe; least common in Asia Family - if a sibling has the condition, the risk is slightly higher, and very high if there is an identical twin Affluence - people from higher socioeconomic status are at greater risk HIV infection
