Check products from the same manufacturer -- like a fitness tracker, wireless scale, and glucose monitor -- to see if they sync so you get a more complete picture of your health.
system: How can tracking sleep help people with diabetes?
output: Sleep. Many trackers have motion sensors that track your ZZZs. That can help if you have diabetes, since they tell you about your sleep quality and duration: Sleep problems and diabetes go hand-in-hand, like sleep apnea and nerve pain at night. If your device records many restless nights, talk to your doctor. Waking up a lot in the night can be a sign that your blood sugar is getting too low. Not sleeping enough can push your blood sugar out of whack. So when you see how little sleep you're getting night after night, you might be inspired to turn off the TV an hour early and go to bed.

system: How can you prevent spreading hepatitis C?
output: You can pass the hepatitis C virus to others through your blood, even if you don't have any symptoms. To prevent this, cover wounds carefully and avoid sharing: Razors, nail clippers, toothbrushes, or diabetes supplies Needles for injecting drugs, or steroids Tools for body piercings or tattoos Hepatitis C doesn't spread through kissing, coughing, sneezing, or sharing eating utensils. It's rare, but you can get it from unprotected sex.

You can pass the hepatitis C virus to others through your blood, even if you don't have any symptoms.
system: How can you prevent broken toenails?
output: Be on the lookout for any sign of infection, especially if you have diabetes or another condition that causes slow healing: Pain gets worse or lasts for more than a couple of days Fever Pus Bleeding More redness or swelling around the toe or spreading into your foot A long toenail or a rough edge can catch on the corner of a door or thick carpet, so keep nails trimmed straight across. Constant pressure, like a hammertoe that rubs against the inside of your shoe, can lead to a detached toenail. See a podiatrist regularly if you have any foot problems. A fungal infection, an allergy to a nail product ingredient, psoriasis, and diseases that cause poor circulation, such as Raynaud's, can lead to your toenail breaking off or crumbling. Follow your doctor's instructions to manage these issues and lower the odds of related problems.
system: What are some tips to treat broken toenails at home?
output: Trim off the loose part so that it won't catch on clothes, carpeting, or anything else and rip more. Use a clean pair of scissors or nail clippers and snip along the line of the tear to make an even edge. If the nail has cracked off from side to side -- without leaving a rough edge -- you can skip the trimming. Protect any exposed part of the nail bed for 7 to 10 days until this skin hardens and isn't sensitive anymore. Coat the area with antibiotic ointment and top with a nonstick bandage. Change the bandage every day and whenever it gets wet. ( If any part gets stuck, soak it under warm running water until it slips off.) For the first couple of days, ease any pain and swelling by propping up your foot. Use pillows so that it's above the level of your heart. Apply an ice pack wrapped in a thin towel for no more than 20 minutes every 3 to 6 hours as needed. Your usual over-the-counter pain reliever should help, too.
system: When can you treat broken toenails at home?
output: You can care for a ripped toenail at home if: The tear isn't too far down toward your foot, and the nail is still attached to the nail bed. Any bleeding stops quickly. You have little, if any, blood pooling under the remaining nail (it will look like a blue-black spot), and it doesn't hurt much. The toe itself looks normal.
system: What should you avoid doing if you have broken toenails?
output: You can care for a ripped toenail at home if: The tear isn't too far down toward your foot, and the nail is still attached to the nail bed. You see blood pooling under 1/4 or more of the remaining nail. Don't wrap the exposed nail bed with plain gauze or a regular adhesive bandage. These will stick, and later it will be both difficult and painful to change the dressing. Try not to fuss at it. Don't pick at the old (or replacement) nail as the new one appears, if one does. It may take a year or more for a new nail to fully grow back, and it may be deformed.
system: What would your doctor do to treat broken toenails?
output: Any bleeding stops quickly. If it's painful, soak your toe in cold water for 20 minutes. The base or sides of the nail are pulling away or already detached from the nail bed or nail folds. You see blood pooling under 1/4 or more of the remaining nail. To help avoid infection, they may give you antibiotics and possibly a tetanus booster shot. You might need an X-ray. If you've broken a bone in the toe, they may tape it to the next toe for support while it heals.
system: When should you get medical help for broken toenails?
output: Go to an urgent care center or emergency room when: The tear is too far down for you to trim. The base or sides of the nail are pulling away or already detached from the nail bed or nail folds. The toenail has ripped off. ( The nail bed may look pearly, as though the nail is still there, even though it's completely off.) You have a deep cut that might need stitches. You have a lot of pain or swelling. Your toe might throb or feel tight. The toe is crooked or mangled. You see blood pooling under 1/4 or more of the remaining nail. Your nail, or an artificial one, will protect the nail bed, and it's more comfortable than a bandage.
system: What can you do to get a good night's sleep?
output: If a medical problem like spasticity, bladder trouble, or depression is keeping you awake, talk to your doctor about treatments that relieve those conditions. A consistent bedtime routine can also be a big help. Try these tips: Relax in the evening before you go to bed. Try to not rehash the day's problems or worry about tomorrow's schedule. If it's hard to turn your brain off, try routines that can help you wind down, like meditation or breathing exercises. Go to bed when you're tired. Try to hit the sack at about the same time every night. If you can't fall asleep after 10-15 minutes, get up. Don't lie in bed and watch the clock or count the cracks in the wall. Find something to do that's relaxing to you, such as working on a puzzle, reading, or writing a letter to a friend. Rather than watching TV, which doesn't require effort, do something active so that your natural tiredness can build up. But don't do that activity while you're in bed -- keep the sheets for sleeping and sex.

system: How can multiple sclerosis affect your sleep?
output: People with multiple sclerosis often have trouble sleeping soundly, but the problems may not be due to the disease itself. Stress, spasticity in arms or legs, inactivity, or depression that can come along with MS can interfere with a good night's rest. In some cases, MS lesions at certain spots within the brain may also keep someone from sleeping normally.
system: What are some tips for a good night's sleep?

system: What are the symptoms of a soft tissue sarcoma?
output: The most common sign of a soft tissue sarcoma is a painless lump or growth. But some may not be noticeable until they're big enough to press on nearby muscles or nerves. About 1 in 5 soft tissue sarcomas happen in the belly. You probably wouldn't learn that you have one until they caused other problems, such as stomach pain, bleeding, or a blocked intestine. A doctor might find a sarcoma in your lungs or chest only after you have chest pain or trouble breathing. About 10% of the time, a sarcoma will start on your head or neck.

system: What is the treatment for soft tissue sarcoma?
output: This will depend on where the cancer is and how far it's spread, but surgery is usually the first step. Your doctors will try to take out any tumors without harming the healthy tissue around them. They might take out one or more of your lymph nodes to check if your sarcoma has reached them and spread to other places in your body. If a tumor is in one of your arms or legs, your doctors may try to replace any tissue they have to take out. They might use tissue from another part of your body or artificial implants. In rare cases, your doctors may have to remove a limb.
system: How are radioactive pellets or radiation therapy used to treat soft tissue sarcoma?
output: In other cases, a method called brachytherapy may be an option. Doctors put small radioactive pellets in the part of your body where the tumor is and then take them out a few days later. You may have to stay in the hospital while the pellets are inside. Your doctors also might suggest radiation therapy to shrink a tumor before they try surgery to take it out. Or they might recommend it after the surgery so they can kill any remaining cancer cells.
system: What are the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation for soft tissue sarcoma?
output: Chemotherapy and radiation can damage normal cells along with the cancerous ones, and that can cause some side effects. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Chemotherapy also can make your hair fall out and lead to a loss of appetite and sores in your mouth. Radiation also can cause redness, peeling, or blistering on your skin where the beams were aimed. If radiation targets your belly or pelvis, it may cause diarrhea. If it's aimed at your head or chest, it may hurt to swallow.

They'll lay out the plan they recommend and tell you about any side effects you might have. After that, you'll be asked to sign forms saying that your doctors have told you about the procedures and that you've agreed to them. Your doctors will tell you if you need to stop certain foods or activities during your treatment. Be sure to tell them about any medications (even those that you can buy âover the counter,â or without a prescription) and supplements (including vitamins and ânaturalâ products) you take regularly. Your therapy may keep you out of work for a while. Talk with your supervisor about your condition and whether you might need to change your schedule or duties while you get treatment.
