Rabies: A life taking disease caused by Insane Dog Biting

 Immediate vaccination can enhance the safety chances

Rabies (Hydrophobia) is a disease recognized by Insane Dog biting. In 19^th Century the Myxonigripada virus of this disease was revealed. This virus destroys the nervous system while entering into a healthy body. As a result of which a man dies becoming insane. What are the preventive measures of this disease and if anybody becomes the victim of it what should be done is being told in this Article. Be Reminded that International Day of Rabies has been celebrated every year on 28^th September in order to make public aware from the consequences of this disease

 

The Rabies virus travels through nerves and as soon reaches the brain the symptoms of rabies starts revealing one by one. The virus mainly accumulated in the Saliva of a victimized human or animal. The virus affects the nervous system badly and the symptoms start revealing within a week.

Among main symptoms the brain membrane swells and pouring of very much of saliva are included. The patient gets fits of Tatnus and his body stiffens, coming out of foam from mouth, gait alters, wobble in restlessness or lay in giddiness.

In other symptoms medium level temperature, headache, vomiting and hiccups, unable to swallow food, not feeling of appetite or thirst, fear of water, unbearable pain at the bitten place, increasing of fits due to slight essence smell or hearing of noise, low excretion of urine and with pain. Hearing of hidden voices, constant pain in stomach, confusion in brain faculties, escape of sleep at initial stages and after wards overwhelm of giddiness followed by unconsciousness and death occurs in the same condition.

The jaw of victimized patient gets hung out and whoever comes nearer to him he howls whereas the affected wild animal run away seeing a human and if the behavior of such animal turns out to be a pet animal then this is its cleverness and he may bite anytime calling your nearer. 

Normally this disease transfers into human by biting or snapping of claw by a mad dog or mad animal. This disease can also be transferred into humans through dry particles of mad bat excretions. According to statistics 96% of this disease breeds due the biting of mad dog and in bats this disease breeds due to various viruses. This is called Lysssavirus 1 and European Bat Lyssavirus 2 .

The speed of spreading of disease depends upon the distance of affected part from the brain. Adults can tell which animal bit them but little children and dumb cannot tell. If any kind of mark is seen on the body of such people while sleeping or awaking and you get aware of the presence of any bat in the room then it should be understood that bat has done his work. Hence such people should be taken to hospital immediately for vaccination. The symptoms of disease often reveal extending from one week to six months. The death toll of humans and animals due to this disease is highest in Asia. Pakistan is on top of the list. Unfortunately, there is no certain treatment of this disease even in this modern medical science world. However, some lives can surely be saved by Compli Metri Medicine. 

If carelessly the saliva of affected pet or wild animal drops on the handkerchief and face or eye was cleaned by it, even then this disease enters into the body. Therefore, such cloth or handkerchief should be burned out immediately and hands should be washed by anti-germinal medicines.

Sometimes we do not realize the disease in our pet animals and if it bites to any part of the body where there is some scratch, disease is also transferred into the body from that part. Therefore it should be our resort not to fondle so much to the pet animals that they become habitual of licking body. Also keep your pet animals away from wild animals. Often wild animals run away seeing a human and if it is not happening, do not go nearer to it as it is highly expected that it is a victim of rabies.

Likewise such people who work in a Laboratory where some research work is going on rabies virus they should also strictly comply with the health rules and people who keep pet animals and their care takers should also attend seriously to the preventive measures from rabies. 

No matter how much you love your rabies affected animals, it must be avoided. Its behavior before and after would decide its madness. Observe such animals for ten days then decide whether it is mad or not. It is your foremost responsibility to get your pet animals injected against rabies. After getting aware of madness of animals, keep yourself away from it and inform the relevant department immediately so that they can hold it away or kill on the spot.

If mad animal bites, wash the wound with clean water within five minutes then apply tincture iodine on it and immediately take the patient to the casualty department of a hospital, since majority of hospitals do not have separate facility for rabies vaccination whereas tens of humans are bitten by mad animals daily.

If patient is taken immediately to the hospital, vaccination is given around the affected place. Rabies vaccination is given for 14 days in a belly. But now-a-days several types of injections are available to safeguard from this disease. Some injections are drunk while others are injected in thigh or belly. Doctor will inject whatever he deems proper. Besides, it is also your responsibility to inform your local health officer on biting of any mad animal. Immediate vaccination enhances the chances of safety.

Ultrasound is a big revolution in the medical field

Nowadays different types of cancers are being treated successfully with the help of Hi Fu technology

Ultrasound is a very useful diagnostic machine. With the help of ultrasound, scanning of stones in kidneys and gall bladder, diseases of liver such as Hepatitis, inflammation, tumor, children’s information in the womb of a pregnant woman, increase of men’s prostrate gland, heart and other numerous diseases are diagnosed easily. How does an ultrasound machine works? In fact, it shows the sound waves converting into images on the screen. In this procedure, majority of people get worried for e.g. women fear that ultrasound rays may not harm their child, whereas various other people also have the same kind of fears, although they are not true. Ultrasound machine is not at all harmful for people Its work is positive, but some people use it negatively too for e.g. many hospitals discloses the sex of a child, which is against medical principles, because with the help of this machine the sex of a child is known in a very early stages, which is increasing the rate of illegal abortion. The diseases which are not diagnosed by urine and blood tests, ultrasound machine tells about them immediately. Even, if the kidneys and gall bladder stones are very minute, even then they can be seen through ultrasound machine. Similarly, the right position of the organs is also known by ultrasound.

People often ask, when should ultrasound be carried out? Its simple answer is whenever you feel abnormal change or protuberance, have pain in the stomach, have swelling or stomach gets increase abnormally, feel urine again and again and with burning, have complaints of Jaundice or chronic cough. Similarly, ultrasound is more important for the growing age people, whether they have any illness or not, but consultation from doctor is essential. Nowadays, not only diagnosis but also surgery is possible by ultrasound. In the latest guided ultrasound technology taking out water from liver and lungs, cataract (kind of eye blindness) treatment, taking out of stomach water and ultrasound biopsy is front most. In the developed countries, by means of it (without knife operation) the surgery of a child in the mother’s womb is also being carried out. Many useful lives can be saved by it. Further progress is going on in this useful method of diagnosis and now help of 3D and 4D ultrasound is also been taken.

FREQUENCY USAGE IN ULTRASOUND

Highest frequency waves are used in Ultrasound. Human can hear frequency to the extent of 20 thousand hertz, whereas in ultrasound more than 500 to 1000 times sound waves are used. This is safest way of diagnosis, since no side effects are produced on the human health.

DRINKING OF EXCESSIVE WATER

Whenever a women’s womb is examined on ultrasound, she gets drunk more water, the purpose is to fill the bladder. By this way, intestines that are moved downwards they come upward again. By filling of water in the bladder, a window is created, at the same time the sound pass though water, which clears the image of the lower organ i.e. womb. In this way excessive drinking of water makes the diagnosis easier.

RISK OF ULTRASOUND

There is no risk to the human body in ultrasound. It is a simple method. Rays are not used in ultrasound as are used in X-Rays. That’s why the health organization of America F.D.A. has determined it as a safe diagnostic method. I will explain the procedure of getting harm or not in a way that suppose X-Ray or Ultrasound is being carried out of any organ, raise its temperature to 5 to 6 degrees from the body temperature and let it raised for 60 to 70 minutes, in this case the cells of that organ start getting harm. In ultrasound this temperature is raised only to 1 degree and its duration is not more than 5 to 10 minutes, therefore, there is no harm and it is proved that it is a safe diagnostic method.

HISTORY OF ULTRASOUND

Ultrasound was first introduced in 1900. Navy used it for the first time. When big ships used to travel in the sea, with the help of ultrasound machine the under water mountains, glaciers and rocks were seen, for they do not hit with the lower part of the ship. About half century ago Douglas Howry did the ultrasound of a person after laying him in the tub. In 1958 Ian Donald forwarded this act. After showing a child in the mother’s womb, he introduced revolution in the scientific field. At that time it could not be used publicly. The reason was that machines were big and the procedure was complex. But research was continuously going on, as the result of which portable ultrasound machine came into being in 1975. After that it revolutionized the medical field and this machine was started using for the service of mankind.

BENEFITS OF ULTRASOUND

Before it, whenever any person feels a slight pain in kidneys, the doctor used to suggest an I.V.P. test. In this test medicines are used that can have side effects and patient can get involved in a new pain, whereas in ultrasound, there is neither any pain nor any complexity. On that, only in 2 minutes you come to know whether the reason of pain is stone or any other disease. Similarly, this machine has made the test of different diseases easier and cheaper.

WHAT ULTRASOUND CAN TELL ABOUT THE GROWTH OF A CHILD?

Ultrasound can tell whether the growth of a child is going on normally. It can check heart palpitation of a child. It can also tell whether there is one child or more than one. It can also tell whether the organs of a child are growing correctly, means child is not a victim of any abnormality or disease or weather child is not growing outside the womb etc.

OPERATION THROUGH ULTRASOUND

Before, whenever there is a tumor in the womb of a woman it was taken out through normal operation, which also caused pain to the patient. Now (in 2004) health organization of America F.D.A. has allowed carrying out a new procedure that is called MRI. In this method a patient is laid on an MRI machine. Afterwards ultrasound rays are thrown on the tumor. In two to three hours of this procedure tumor is burnt and finished.

Surprising thing is that patient does not feel any pain. This is a without knife operation. If a woman is employed, she can go to her work after operation.

HI FU TECHONLOY

For now this technology is carrying on in few countries such as China and some other developed countries, whereas in Europe it is in a testifying stage. With the help of this technology chest, bladder cancer and cancers of different parts of the body are burnt. In this technology, the normal tissues of patient do not get any harm but only those parts are burnt that are produced by a disease.

Bathing --- General Health Warranty

In summer season, 3 to 4 times bathing is also beneficial.

Increase the use of fountain; abstain from bathing immediately after meals.

Cleanliness is half faith. Bathing plays an important role in this respect. Further, it is also an important medium of keeping the general health. Health experts, think it as an important medium of protection from diseases and keeping the health up.

Bathing has different kinds for instance, bathing with pure natural water, with medicine mixed water and with steam etc. Bathing according to the skin temperature, creates tranquility in the disposition, whereas bathing with cold and hot water also mobilizes the body. It is important to know about the useful effects of bathing on general health, energetic effects on skin, and duties of skin.

Skin is not only covering our body but also providing beauty. It also performs the duty of our body parts safety including heart, lungs, kidneys and intestines etc. Further, besides keeping the performance of heart, and lungs in balance, it also excretes waste matters, keeps the body temperature moderate, it is also wealthy with the feeling of sense. In other words it is helpful in all the life generating activities. Therefore, it is utmost important taking care of its cleanliness and health.

The most important work of skin is the excretion of waste minerals and waste matters from the body in the shape of perspiration. People who do not bath, a layer is made on their bodies made of oily fluid excreted with perspiration, dust and germ present in the air, due to which unbearable smell comes out from the body. Besides, skin gets broken at many places due to itching and inflammation.

In order to prevent this unbearable smell, keeping the temperature normal and for the excretion of waste matters it is important taking bath two to three times or at least once daily. There is a possibility of closing the mouth of glands that excretes perspiration and oil which afterwards can develop into pimples and boils due to not bathing.

In summer the skin glands are more active to keep the temperature of the body normal. In such condition 2 to 3 times bathing can also be carried out daily. In winter when these glands are less active for the shortage of moisture in the air and therefore, daily once or in case of severe cold in alternate days bathing should be carried out in order to prevent the body temperature from falling and preventing skin from skin dandruff.

Similarly in winter, usage of soap should be decreased. In this season, excessive use of soap can develop skin dandruff and inflammation. For bathing, usage of fountain is the best medium. It is an important medium of keeping the whole body clean and providing freshness to the skin. After bathing also put some cold water on the skin and then rub the whole body thoroughly with dry towel. This action produces pleasurable effects on the body and skin gets energy as well.

This act is also an important medium of preventing from catarrh and flu, whereas bathing with slightly hot water produces soothing effects on the tense nerves and tired muscles. The bathing with slightly hot water before going to sleep is also helpful.

In case of pain in the thighs, hips and lower parts of the body, sitting in the slightly hot water is also beneficial. It proves helpful in anal inflammation, external piles and in urine pain. Bandages of cold water should be applied on forehead, hands and feet for reducing high fever, whereas bathing immediately after meal is injurious to health. Prevention should also be taken to bath with very hot and very cold water.

Skin diseases of Eyes

Among many reasons allergy, velvet prayer sheet, nail polish, artificial colors, usage of jewelry and pollen season are top most reasons for skin diseases of eyes

Normally everybody faces various eyes’ pains in daily life. These are being discussed here briefly so that they can be prevented well as a first aid, because prevention is hundred times better than cure. In this respect we will first discuss about allergy or sensitivity which is very common. Among external factors, environmental pollution, mental and physical tension, fatigue and presence of minute dust mites in the carpets not only becomes the reason of allergy and inflammation in the eyes but constant catarrh and fits of cough during night and breathing pains are also up front in this regard.

Presence of thick curtains also becomes the reason of dust mites, therefore never use prayer sheet made of velvet. It would be better if simple nylon mat is used for praying, which prevents nose and eyes allergy. In order to be safe from sunlight and air, it would be better using proper colored glasses (that can absorb sunlight).

By using different kinds of cosmetics for e.g. nail polish etc can also cause inflammation on the eyelids which is ignored by majority of people. Sprays used on body and hair are also a big cause of allergy. In some people plants are also a cause of allergy. In artificial jewelry, there is nickel, chrome, therefore, they not only become the cause of body allergy but also create itching and inflammation on the external lids of eyes, whereas hair color, henna powder can also cause allergy. People working in the parlor can also get caught of any allergy, besides hands allergy, due to sensitivity of face and eyes.

People suffering from by birth Eczema (Atopic) are specifically affects much due to eyes sensitivity. Normally a constant line of inflammation is created below the eyes of these people. Due to constant itching, eyes become deprived of lashes and become inflammatory.

Such people are much affected with Hay fever. In this condition, redness appears suddenly in the eyes and water starts flowing from nose and eyes. They sneeze much, then suddenly this fits ends up and eyes become normal again. The attack of this disease occurs much during pollination season, i.e. during the flying of pollen grains through air from one place to another.

During the same process the presence of pollens in the air becomes the reason of catarrh, flu (Hay Fever). But this fits attack is temporary and recovered soon after taking anti allergic medicines.

Test for the presence of IGE and Oesinophils in the blood of Atopic people (chronic Eczema or Asthma patients) is found helpful. In Atopic people, a folding line is often found under the lower lip of eyes, which is an important symptom of by birth Eczema.

Other reasons of eyelids’ inflammation should also be kept in mind, which are developed due to the disturbance in thyroid kidneys but its treatment is possible with the help of proper test. The easiest and simplest among them all is the normal test of urine. The clues sought by this simple test are proved very much beneficial.

Seborrheic Eczema is very common. This condition is also called dandruff in the head, which is a very common disease. The falling dandruff from the head affects eyelashes, eyebrows, face, back and chest and becomes the reason of itching, redness and pain at these places.

In this condition eyes become red and a layer of dandruff sticks on the eye lashes, which afterwards cause itching and infection and small boils are grown. In severe conditions the patients cannot open eyes after waking in the morning due to their stickiness. Thin peels are gathered on the eyelashes and being affected sometimes eyelashes fall down. This condition becomes severe due to mental tension, physical fatigue and sunlight.

In hot countries, especially in summer season and a little change in the climate can also produce this condition, as a result pimples, wounds and red peels get apparent on the line of eye lashes. This is a secondary condition of dandruff and in this skin demands treatment and care.

For e.g. washing of eye lashes with closed eyes with any baby shampoo and further eyes should be washed 3 or 4 times in a day with a wet, clean and soft cloth in order to overcome dandruff. The best treatment of this disease is shampooing the hair daily and regularly, but only the use of baby lotion is not enough.

Finally, the most common condition is the epidemic eye pain, in which many people get affected at the same time. In this condition redness and pain occurs in the eyes and sunlight is felt too much irritating. Usage of black colored glasses is useful for its cure. Since, it is a contagious disease; therefore, towel of the patient should be separated from other people’s towel. When a yellowish like matter starts gathering in the eyes and eyes get stick together, in this condition eyes should be washed many times with water in a day and any anti-germinal drops or cream should be applied in the eyes until cured.

Anybody can be victimized of Cystitis

The patients of cystitis should drink enough water.

Practicing the basic rules of health and cleanliness, one can keep himself safe from this chronic disease

In medical terminology the inflammation of urinary bladder is called cystitis. This inflammation occurs due to bacterial germ infection which is more common in women as compared to men.

According to the experts every second woman of the world becomes its victim twice in a life time. There is no age fixed getting victimized of this disease, but normally people less than 40 years of age are found suffering from this disease.

The most important thing in this respect is that this disease is ignored in the initial stages, thus it becomes acute and the treatment becomes rather difficult because the disease attacks again and again and thus creates several complexities. Therefore, it must be bear in mind that as soon as the symptoms of disease are apparent in any man or woman, they should consult the doctor without any delay and get rid of this disease immediately, since delay can become the cause of regret.

The reason of disease is infection but different germ can also become the cause of this disease. An “Ascharachiacolai bacterium” is the cause of this disease in 70% patients.  The germ entering from urethra into the bladder and becomes the reason of disease. It should be remembered that bladder is also an important organ like other organs, which is situated at the lower part of abdomen on the front side little bit below the navel.

Urine gathers in the bladder passing through the ureter drop by drop falling from the kidneys and when bladder gets full, a person naturally feels the need of passing urine out of the body through urethra. This is a specific act, which carries out normally but when bladder is infected, this natural mechanism gets affected and its routine obstructed.

In the symptoms of this disease patient feels the need of passing urine again and again. Even after emptying the bladder, the desire of passing urine remains. This condition occurs due to Tetanus in the infectious muscular walls of the bladder. Patient feels a little bit of irritation while passing urine and pain at the point of bladder because due to inflammation urine becomes very much acidic and while passing it is a very painful act.

Sometimes patient pass smelling urine and sometimes there is mixture of blood and pus in the urine. In the severe attack of disease a person suffers from cold and high fever and shivering take over him. These are the specific symptoms, due to which diagnosing of the disease is not difficult. Besides, the microscopic examination of Urine is also very beneficial in the diagnosis of the disease. Another test of urine which is called culture and sensitivity test makes the diagnosis quite easier. In this test, the urine of a patient is sent to laboratory in a clean bottle, the result of which is received in 48 hours that inform us about the specific germs that is the cause of disease.

Further the choice of effective anti-bacterial medicine is also proved helpful, as far as the reason of disease is concerned, there is not any specific reason of this disease. Among many reasons any one attack can be the start of disease. In few people the wrong way of cleanliness after passing of wastage in the toilet becomes the reason, whereas in few people the excessive use of tea, coffee and alcohol become the reason.

Besides, the Nylon underwear, washing of clothes especially under garments with a chemically treated washing powder can exhilarate the disease. Besides, it can also be due to the infection in the surrounding organs. For instance Gonorrhea, inflammation of the prostate gland, narrowness of urinary tract, tilting of womb from its place, presence of stones in the bladder can also become the cause of this disease.

It is necessary, consulting a qualified doctor for the treatment because the correct diagnosis and prescription of effective medicines can only be carried out by an authorized doctor. Consulting a quack at this stage is equal to suicide. Treatment from a quack can make this disease more complicated.

Unfortunately, if anybody gets caught of this disease, the best way of handling it is to drinking a lot of water. Certainly patient will think that by drinking excessive water he will pass more urine and he thus have to go through this painful condition again and again, which the patient of cystitis has to face while passing urine, but the reality is absolutely against it. The excessive use of water reduces the pain and irritation because Urine becomes acidic in this disease. The little amount of acidic urine cause great pain and in order to get rid of this pain bladder instigates the desire of passing urine again and again.

Therefore, excessive use of water reduces the acidity in the urine due to which the intensity of pain and irritation also reduces. Besides, the best trick of saving from disease is to adopt precautionary measures. You must have heard “Prevention is better than cure”. Health is a unique blessing of God. Only a patient can realize its true value. What a wonderful saying somebody has said, “Health is that crown on the head of a healthy person that only sick person can see.” Therefore, by adopting preventive measures and abiding by the basic health and cleanliness rules, one can save himself from the burden of treatment and pains of the disease.

Dementia can be inherited

High blood pressure, excessive use of headache medicines, any brain injury, brain T.B., and working in tension are some of the important reasons of Dementia disease.

Forgetting sometimes anything, anybody’s name or location is a natural process but regular occurrences of these incidents are the symptoms of disease. Disorganization in life, too much responsibilities and work, worries, working like a robot where there is no presence of mind and some natural carelessness gives way to the disease of forgetfulness. With the rising age some diseases can take place but forgetfulness is a very torturing disease that creates social problems.

If the disease prolongs, mental abilities start depreciating and a person become deprive of making right decisions due to which his daily works and other life’s matters affect much. The brain cells of the affected person slowly and gradually keep on becoming useless along with the age and the time comes when he cannot even take care of himself.

In younger age, carelessness and sense of responsibility plays an important role in developing dementia, whereas in old age, high blood pressure makes the brain cells weak. Similarly excessive use of alcohol and laxatives also develops headaches and disturbance in memory. The deficiency of Vitamin B12 and folic acid are also its big reason, whereas contagious diseases that affect the spinal cord, working in depression and tension can become the causes of forgetfulness.

In few people this disease is inherited. In the beginning a person forgets the events occurred in the near past but he remembers well the old events. That’s why a patient can be doubted in the beginning of diseases. In this disease patient forgets after saying something or keeping thing at some place, forgets after eating food and thus demand for food again and again. In the severity of disease, the patient forgets the name of relatives, even the numbers and names of his children. He tries to tell the numbers of children counting on fingers.

The majority of patients become the target of society’s ridicule and mockery. It is essential that the place of surrounding things of the patient should not be changed. A minor change in the room can create problems for them. For instance the place of cupboard or changing the order of things in the cupboard can put patient into trouble.

Similarly, married children are always desirous of taking their parents to their homes for a month or two. This change of environment creates great difficulty for the dementia people. They feel difficulty in sleeping, working, walking, bathing etc., and if everything like sleeping, working, eating, visiting etc would be performed at the specific timings the patient feels relief.

In some instances the dementia patients are left alone, which is absolutely wrong, this way patient feels him lonely and can get into depression.

Some works should be given to them regularly for e.g. make them play carom board, ludo or chess etc. Making them read the newspaper, magazines, providing entertainment through radio, television etc., is good for their health. Engage them in the care of flowers and plants, if there is no lawn in the house, make them practice of putting fertilizer in the pot and sowing wheat seeds in it, this has been proved best practice for the dementia patients.

 The mental condition of dementia people is similar to children. Therefore, they need much affection, love and care. Thus, considering such people as children and treating them like children is great, whereas, anger, irritation, intolerance, cursing, insult can be destructive. Similarly, criticism and arguments is also harmful for such patients. In severity of diseases the memory of the patient deteriorates so much that if they happened to go out, they even forget the way back to their homes. Therefore, whenever they go out, some family member must accompany them. Along with milk, suitable diet, dry fruits, folic acid and B12, love and affection, care, service and supervision is the best and simple treatment of oblivious people than can enable them passing a happy and pleasurable life.
