system: How should I bathe if I have psoriasis?
output: Baths and showers can dry your skin. To keep that from happening: Make sure the water's not too hot. Lukewarm is best. Add non-fragrance salts or oil or finely ground oatmeal to bathwater after you've soaked for a minute. Plain water can suck moisture out. Take fewer showers and baths. They can strip your skin of natural oils. Bathe every other day or every third day, especially in the winter.
system: How can I keep psoriasis from affecting my emotional health?
output: Don't let your condition affect your self-esteem. Ask for help if you find it's taking a toll on you. Talk to a therapist such as a psychologist or social worker or join a support group. Time with other people who understand what you're going through can help.
system: How should you tend to your mental health to help with psoriasis?
output: Don't let your condition affect your self-esteem. Ask for help if you find it's taking a toll on you. Talk to a therapist such as a psychologist or social worker or join a support group. Time with other people who understand what you're going through can help.
system: How should you keep your skin moist to treat psoriasis?
output: Medicines work best, but you can do things to treat your psoriasis without a prescription. After putting on thick lotions or creams, seal in the moisture with ointments like petroleum jelly, shortening, or olive oil. Sweat mixed with thick creams can make your psoriasis worse. Right after your bath or shower, pat yourself dry -- don't rub -- with a towel. Before you go to bed, wrap your skin with a bandage or plastic wrap. In the morning, wash the area gently. Over time, this can help with scaling. Baths and showers can dry your skin. To keep that from happening: Make sure the water's not too hot. But stick with it.
system: Should I drink at all if I have psoriasis?
output: Limit how much sun you get. Psoriasis is more common in people who drink heavily. Alcohol may affect men's psoriasis more than women's. Women should have no more than one drink a day, and men should stop at two.
system: How should you get some sun to take care of your psoriasis?
output: But stick with it. Use a sunscreen that contains zinc oxide and has an SPF of 30 or higher on areas that don't have psoriasis. Limit how much sun you get. Twenty minutes a day 3 days a week is a good start. Talk to your doctor first, though.
system: Can sunlight help with psoriasis?
output: But stick with it. Use a sunscreen that contains zinc oxide and has an SPF of 30 or higher on areas that don't have psoriasis. Limit how much sun you get. Twenty minutes a day 3 days a week is a good start. Talk to your doctor first, though.
system: What is an angina or chest pain?
output: Angina -- or chest pain -- occurs because the heart is not receiving enough oxygen. The pain is usually in the chest and may also be felt in the shoulder, arm, or jaw. Not all chest pain is angina and it may be difficult to determine the cause of chest pain.
system: What should I do if I feel chest pains at home?
output: Stop doing whatever it is that causes your symptoms, remain calm, and call 911. Immediate help and intervention is your best chance for survival if you are having a heart attack or other serious problem. Lie down in a comfortable position with your head up. If you have regular adult aspirin or its equivalent, chew one (as long as you are not allergic to aspirin). Chewing more than one will not do any good and may cause unwanted side effects.
system: How can an injury cause keratitis?
output: Light may hurt your eyes, and you also may have: Blurry vision Lots of tears or a discharge Swelling Several things can lead to keratitis: Injury: Most of the time, keratitis comes from damage to your cornea. You might have been poked in the eye or scratched your eye with your fingernail. It also can happen if you wear your contact lenses too long or wear lenses that don't fit right. The injury may cause the inflammation, but it can also let in bacteria or a fungus that leads to an infection.
system: What are some other causes of keratitis?
output: Other causes: A lack of vitamin A, some illnesses that involve a problem with your immune system, and diseases that cause very dry eyes can lead to keratitis.
system: How do doctors treat keratitis?
output: If your keratitis is caused by an injury, it usually clears up on its own as your eye heals. You may get an antibiotic ointment to help with symptoms and prevent infection. Infections are treated with prescription eye drops and sometimes antibiotics or antiviral medicine. Keratitis is usually easy to treat and clears up quickly. But if an infection goes deeper than the surface of your cornea, it can leave scars that damage your vision or even cause blindness.
system: How can a fungus cause keratitis?
output: Fungus: It's also very rare to get a fungal infection in your eye. It usually comes from being scratched in the eye by a branch or from contaminated contacts. Eye surgery also can cause this.
system: What is keratitis?
output: Doctors sometimes use the term "corneal ulcer." It's usually caused by an injury or infection. See your doctor right away if you have a problem with your eyes. Keratitis can become serious quickly. The first sign of keratitis is usually eye pain and redness.
system: How can a parasite cause keratitis?
output: Parasite: Acanthamoeba is a microorganism that lives just about everywhere -- in the air, soil, and bodies of water. It's even found in tap water. It's harmless most of the time. But it can cause an eye infection, especially if you wear contacts. It's very rare, but also very hard to treat.
system: How can a bacterial infection cause keratitis?
output: Bacterial infection: This happens less often, but it can be a problem for people who wear contact lenses. Bacteria can grow on your contacts or contact case if you don't clean and store them properly. Extended-wear lenses, the kind you sleep in for days or even weeks at a time, are most likely to lead to this. Infection can also come from contaminated eye drops or contact solution. Or it can happen after eye surgery.
system: How can a viral infection cause keratitis?
output: Viral infection: This is usually herpes simplex, the chicken pox virus, or the common cold. If you're sick, be careful about touching your eyes and keep your hands clean.
system: How is keratitis diagnosed?
output: See your doctor right away if you have a problem with your eyes. She also may swab under your eyelid to get a sample to test for infection. Don't wear your contacts until you find out what's wrong.
system: What are the symptoms of keratitis?
output: Keratitis is painful inflammation of your cornea -- the clear covering over the pupil and colored part of your eye. Your eye may burn or feel irritated, like you have something in it. You may not even be able to open it. Light may hurt your eyes, and you also may have: Blurry vision Lots of tears or a discharge Swelling Several things can lead to keratitis: Injury: Most of the time, keratitis comes from damage to your cornea.
system: What are the side effects of radiation for bronchial adenoma?
output: Radiation can cause side effects such as: Fatigue Skin redness in the area where you got treatment Sore throat and mouth Cough Shortness of breath These problems should go away once you stop the treatment.
system: What are the symptoms of carcinoid tumors related to bronchial adenoma?
output: Carcinoid tumor symptoms include: Cough, sometimes with blood Wheezing Shortness of breath Chest pain Flushing of the face Infections such as pneumonia Adenoid cystic carcinoma symptoms include: Lump on the roof of the mouth, under the tongue, or in the bottom of the mouth Trouble swallowing Hoarse voice Numbness in the jaw, roof of the mouth, face, or tongue Bump under the jaw or in front of the ear Mucoepidermoid carcinoma symptoms include: Swelling in the glands near your ears, under your lower jaw, or in your mouth Numbness or weakness of your face Pain in your face To diagnose bronchial adenoma, your doctor may give you one or more of these tests: Biopsy removes a small piece of tissue.
system: How is targeted therapy used to treat bronchial adenoma?
output: These treatments look for proteins or genes that are unique to your cancer, and that help it grow. Then it targets those substances to stop the cancer from spreading.
system: What are the different types of bronchial adenoma?
output: These include: Carcinoid tumors affect hormone-producing cells and nerve cells. They can form in the lungs, or in the stomach and intestines. Adenoid cystic carcinoma usually starts in the salivary glands in the mouth and throat. It also can affect the trachea, tear glands in the eyes, sweat glands, or a woman's uterus, vulva, or breasts. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma happens in the salivary glands. Most cancers of this type affect the parotid glands in front of the ears.

A specialist checks the sample under a microscope to see if it's cancer. X-rayuses low doses of radiation to make images of structures inside your body. A chest X-ray can look for a tumor in your lungs. MRI, or magnetic resonance imaging,uses powerful magnets and radio waves to make pictures of organs and structures inside your body. It can show the size of the tumor. You may get a liquid to drink, or into a vein before the test. This contrast dye will help create a clearer picture. Your doctor might also do other types of scans to look for the tumor and see if it has spread.
system: Are there symptoms of bronchial adenoma?
output: You may not have any symptoms at first, because carcinoid tumors and some other types of bronchial adenomas grow slowly. Which kinds of symptoms you eventually get depends on where the cancer is located.
system: How is radiation used to treat bronchial adenoma?
output: This treatment uses high-energy X-rays to kill cancer cells. It can relieve symptoms and help you feel better. You also can get it after surgery to kill any cancer cells left behind.
system: What are possible side effects of chemotherapy used to treat bronchial adenoma?
output: Possible side effects from chemo include: Fatigue Nausea and vomiting Hair loss Loss of appetite Diarrhea Increased risk of infection Immunotherapy.
system: What does your treatment for bronchial adenoma depend on?
output: Which treatment you get depends on your: Type and stage of cancer Age Health Preferences Options include: Surgery.

output: You may not have any symptoms at first, because carcinoid tumors and some other types of bronchial adenomas grow slowly. Which kinds of symptoms you eventually get depends on where the cancer is located.
system: What are the side effects of chemotherapy for bronchial adenoma?
output: Possible side effects from chemo include: Fatigue Nausea and vomiting Hair loss Loss of appetite Diarrhea Increased risk of infection Immunotherapy.
system: Where can you get support for your bronchial adenoma?
output: Treatment for bronchial adenoma can be stressful. It's important to talk openly about your feelings with your doctors, nurses, and the other members of your treatment team. A therapist, psychologist, or counselor can help you get through some of the concerns and emotions you may feel. You may also want to look for a support group for other people with this condition. It helps to be able to talk with people who know what you're going through, because they know what it's like and can relate to you.
system: What is a bronchial adenoma?
output: Although the word "adenoma" means a noncancerous tumor, most bronchial adenomas are cancer and can spread to other parts of the body. Yet they often grow slowly and are treatable, so if you have one, keep in mind that they have a good outlook. Adenoid cystic carcinoma usually starts in the salivary glands in the mouth and throat.
system: What should you expect from treatment of bronchial adenoma?
output: You may get a liquid to drink, or into a vein before the test. This means your doctors can't find any cancer left in your body and you have no symptoms. Bronchial adenomas can come back even after they are treated. This is called a recurrence. You'll see your doctor for regular checkups, blood tests, and scans to check for signs of cancer. If your cancer does return, your doctor will try the same treatments, or new treatments to stop its spread.
system: What is hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?
output: In the other types, the muscular left ventricle becomes very thick. High blood pressure may cause your left ventricle to enlarge (a type known as hypertrophy). The thickening (which doctors call hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) can also be inherited.
system: How does an echocardiogram help diagnose an enlarged heart?
output: An ultrasound of your heart -- you may hear it called an echocardiogram -- is the best way to diagnose it. There's no pain or risk from it. It measures the heart's: Size Muscle thickness Pumping function In some cases, it can help your doctor figure out what's causing your enlarged heart.
system: What is dilated cardiomyopathy?
output: Dilated cardiomyopathy is the main type of enlarged heart. The walls of both sides (also known as ventricles) become thin and stretched. This enlarges your heart.
system: What causes an enlarged heart?
output: But it's usually the result of high blood pressure or coronary artery disease. Most often, an enlarged heart causes no symptoms.
system: What are the symptoms of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)?
output: Guillain- Barre syndrome strikes quickly. You usually feel it first in your arms and legs. You may notice muscle weakness or a âpins and needlesâ tingling in your hands and feet, which later moves toward your midsection. You may also feel unusually tired. Your reflexes may slow. Some people feel only a mild weakness. Others become almost entirely paralyzed and struggle to swallow or breathe. If you feel anything more than mild weakness, you should call 911. Your symptoms can get worse quickly. Most people are at their weakest 3 weeks after symptoms appear.
system: What causes Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)?
output: No one's sure if a germ or virus, like the Zika virus, causes GBS . It could be that some illnesses alter your nerve cells, so your immune system starts to view them as threats. Others think your immune system forgets which cells it shouldn't attack.
system: What are the treatments for Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)?
output: In some cases, in order to speed recovery, the doctor will take blood from your body, âcleanâ it, and then return it to you. This process is called plasmapheresis. Your doctor may give you immunoglobulin, or antibodies. You'll get high doses of healthy cells through an IV. These help lessen your immune system's attack on your body.
system: What is Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)?
output: It can cause muscle weakness, reflex loss, and numbness or tingling in parts of your body. It can lead to paralysis, which is usually temporary. !s_sensitive, chron ID: $('article embeded_module[type=video][align=top]:eq(0)').attr('chronic_id'), continuous Play: true, cp Options: { flyout: true }, display Ads: true, mode: 'in-article', sticky: true }) }); }); } else { $(function(){ $('.responsive-video-container').remove(); }); } Most people recover, even those with severe cases. In fact, 85% of people with GBS make a full recovery within 6 to 12 months. Once you get better, the chance of it returning is very small. Guillain- Barre syndrome strikes quickly.
system: How long is the recovery period for Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS)?
output: You usually feel it first in your arms and legs. It may take a while for you to feel like yourself again. After a hospital stay, you may still feel weak and need a wheelchair or walker to get around. You may have physical therapy to build up your strength . A small number of people also have permanent nerve damage. If your symptoms continue longer, you may be suffering from a chronic form of GBS called chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and will need more aggressive treatment.
system: What type of breathing problem is kussmaul breathing?
output: This pattern of fast, deep breaths sometimes happens in people who have a problem related to diabetes known as diabetic ketoacidosis. When you have diabetes, your body doesn't use sugar for energy the way it should. Instead, it burns stored fat for energy. That raises the level of acid in your blood. Your body tries to get things back into balance by getting rid of more carbon dioxide, so you breathe in faster and breathe out more deeply. Because it changes your body's chemistry, Kussmaul breathing can lead to fruity-smelling breath.
system: What type of breathing problem is bradypnea?
output: This is when you feel âshort of breath,â like your body can't get enough air. Bradypnea can be a sign of a condition that affects your metabolism or another problem, like sleep apnea, carbon monoxide poisoning, or a drug overdose. It means you're breathing faster than normal.
system: How can you tell if you have reached a healthy weight?
output: Yet stepping on your bathroom scale alone won't tell you if you're at a healthy weight, since it doesn't take your height into account. At 150 pounds, you're overweight if you measure 5 feet 2 inches tall, but just right if you're 6 feet 2 inches. A more accurate measure is your body mass index ( BMI), which calculates your weight in relation to your height. A BMI of between 18.5 and 24.9 is healthy.
system: What does it mean when your doctor tells you to 'eat more whole grains'?
output: What It Means: When doctors talk about "whole grains," they mean grains that haven't been refined. The grains in white bread and white rice have had their nutrient-dense outer layers removed. What's left behind is mainly empty carbs. Whole wheat, brown rice, and steel-cut oats have kept their outer layers, which are packed with fiber. That fiber will keep you feeling full for longer, which may be why people who eat more whole grains report greater weight-loss success.
system: How many servings of whole grains should you eat in a day?
output: Ideally, you want to eat at least 3 ounces of whole grains daily. One slice of whole-grain bread or 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice counts as an ounce. To spot whole grains when you shop, look for "100% whole grains" on the food's label.
system: How do your blood sugar levels change as you eat?
output: Then it dips a few hours later as insulin moves glucose into your cells. Between meals, your blood sugar should be less than 100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl). This is called your fasting blood sugar level.
system: What goes wrong in the body with type 1 and type 2 diabetes?
output: There are two types of diabetes: In type 1 diabetes, your body doesn't have enough insulin. The immune system attacks and destroys cells of the pancreas, where insulin is made. In type 2 diabetes, the cells don't respond to insulin like they should. So the pancreas needs to make more and more insulin to move glucose into the cells. Eventually, the pancreas is damaged and can't make enough insulin to meet the body's needs.
system: What are the two types of diabetes?
output: There are two types of diabetes: In type 1 diabetes, your body doesn't have enough insulin. The immune system attacks and destroys cells of the pancreas, where insulin is made. In type 2 diabetes, the cells don't respond to insulin like they should. So the pancreas needs to make more and more insulin to move glucose into the cells. Eventually, the pancreas is damaged and can't make enough insulin to meet the body's needs.
system: How does the body make glucose?
output: It mainly comes from foods rich in carbohydrates, like bread, potatoes, and fruit. As you eat, food travels down your esophagus to your stomach. There, acids and enzymes break it down into tiny pieces. During that process, glucose is released. It goes into your intestines where it's absorbed. From there, it passes into your bloodstream. Once in the blood, insulin helps glucose get to your cells.
system: Why is too much glucose in the bloodstream bad?
output: Too much glucose in your bloodstream for a long period of time can damage the vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood to your organs. High blood sugar can increase your risk for: Heart disease, heart attack, and stroke Kidney disease Nerve damage Eye disease called retinopathy People with diabetes need to test their blood sugar often. Exercise, diet, and medicine can help keep blood glucose in a healthy range and prevent these complications.
system: How does your blood glucose level drop and how does it store glucose?
output: After you haven't eaten for a few hours, your blood glucose level drops. Your pancreas stops churning out insulin. Alpha cells in the pancreas begin to produce a different hormone called glucagon. It signals the liver to break down stored glycogen and turn it back into glucose. That travels to your bloodstream to replenish your supply until you're able to eat again. Your liver can also make its own glucose using a combination of waste products, amino acids, and fats.
system: How does your body use glucose?
output: From there, it passes into your bloodstream. Insulin acts like a key, unlocking muscle, fat, and liver cells so glucose can get inside them. Most of the cells in your body use glucose along with amino acids (the building blocks of protein) and fats for energy. After your body has used the energy it needs, the leftover glucose is stored in little bundles called glycogen in the liver and muscles. Your body can store enough to fuel you for about a day. That travels to your bloodstream to replenish your supply until you're able to eat again. Your blood sugar level normally rises after you eat. This is called your fasting blood sugar level.
system: What is glucose?
output: As it travels through your bloodstream to your cells, it's called blood glucose or blood sugar. Insulin is a hormone that moves glucose from your blood into the cells for energy and storage. Your blood sugar level normally rises after you eat.
system: How does autologous (AUTO) stem cell transplant work to treat cancer?
output: In an autologous ( AUTO) transplant, doctors take healthy stem cells from your bone marrow or blood. They're frozen and carefully stored. Since they're outside your body, they aren't harmed during the chemotherapy or radiation treatments you'll need to get rid of your cancer cells. After your treatment ends, your thawed stem cells are returned to your bloodstream through an IV. They'll find their way back to your bone marrow. Once there, they help your body make healthy blood cells again.
