system: How can vitamin C help rebuild your bone after a fracture?
output: Collagen is a protein that's an important building block for bone. Vitamin C helps your body make collagen, which helps your bone fracture heal. You can get it from many tasty, fresh fruits and veggies. Aged or heated produce can lose some of its vitamin C, so go for fresh or frozen. Good sources: Citrus fruits like oranges, kiwi fruit, berries, tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, and green vegetables.
system: How can protein help rebuild your bone after a fracture?
output: About half your bone's structure is made of this. When you have a fracture, your body needs it to build new bone for the repair. It also helps your body take in and use calcium, another key nutrient for healthy bones. Good sources: Meat, fish, milk, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, nuts, seeds, beans, soy products, and fortified cereals.
system: How can vitamin D help rebuild your bone after a fracture?
output: It helps your blood take in and use calcium and build up the minerals in your bones. You get some vitamin D when sunlight hits your skin, so it can be a good idea to spend a short amount of time outdoors each day -- 15 minutes may be enough for a fair-skinned person. Vitamin D is found naturally in only a few foods like egg yolks and fatty fish, but manufacturers add it to other foods, like milk or orange juice. Adults should get at least 600 IU of vitamin D every day, and if you're over 70 you should get at least 800 IU. Good sources: Swordfish, salmon, cod liver oil, sardines, liver, fortified milk or yogurt, egg yolks, and fortified orange juice.
system: How can iron help rebuild your bone after a fracture?
output: When you have a fracture, your body needs it to build new bone for the repair. Iron helps your body make collagen to rebuild bone. It also plays a part in getting oxygen into your bones to help them heal. Good sources: Red meat, dark-meat chicken or turkey, oily fish, eggs, dried fruits, leafy green veggies, whole-grain breads, and fortified cereals.
system: How can potassium help rebuild your bone after a fracture?
output: This mineral also helps you build strong bones, so foods and drinks rich in it can help your bone fracture heal. Get enough of this mineral in your diet, and you won't lose as much calcium when you pee. There are lots of fresh fruits rich in potassium. Good sources: Bananas, orange juice, potatoes, nuts, seeds, fish, meat, and milk.
system: What foods should I avoid to heal after a bone fracture?
output: After a fracture, your bone needs to rebuild. This mineral also helps you build strong bones, so foods and drinks rich in it can help your bone fracture heal. You won't build new bone as fast to fix the fracture. A bit too much alcohol can also make you unsteady on your feet, which can make you more likely to fall and risk an injury to the same bone. Salt: Too much of this in your diet can make you lose more calcium in your urine. Coffee: Lots of caffeine -- more than four cups of strong coffee a day -- can slow down bone healing a little. It might make you pee more, and that could mean you lose more calcium through your urine.
system: What kind of diet can help rebuild your bone after a fracture?
output: A healthy, well-balanced diet rich in key nutrients can help speed that up. You don't need to take supplements unless your doctor recommends it. They don't always work well. It's much better to get the nutrition you need from your plate, not from a pill. There are lots of fresh fruits rich in potassium.
system: How should you prepare for a mammogram?
output: Before your mammogram, inform your doctor or the technologist performing the test if you are pregnant or think that you may be pregnant. No dietary changes are necessary. Take your medicines as usual. Do not wear body powder, cream, deodorant, or lotion under your arms or on your chest the day of the test. These substances may interfere with the X-rays. You will be asked to remove all clothing above the waist and you will be given a hospital gown to wear. You may want to wear a two-piece outfit the day of the test. You will be asked to remove all jewelry.
system: What is a mammogram?
output: For a routine breast screening, two pictures are taken of each breast.
system: What happens during a mammogram?
output: You will be asked to stand in front of an X-ray machine. A technologist will place your breast on an X-ray plate. A clear plastic paddle will gently compress your breast until taut. Compression is necessary to obtain the clearest possible picture with the least amount of radiation. Your cooperation for these few seconds is important to get a clear picture. If you feel that the pressure on your breast is too great, tell the technologist. If you feel some discomfort from this pressure, it will only last for a few seconds while the X-ray is being taken. To minimize discomfort during compression, you may want to consider scheduling your appointment seven to 10 days after the start of your period, when your breasts are least likely to be tender. The breast will be imaged in several positions to enable the radiologist to visualize all breast tissue adequately. For a routine breast screening, two pictures are taken of each breast. The exam takes about 5-10 minutes.
system: What is a mammogram used for?
output: If you feel that the pressure on your breast is too great, tell the technologist. If you feel any discomfort after the mammogram, ask your doctor if you can take aspirin or ibuprofen to relieve it.
system: What happens after a mammogram?
output: Before your mammogram, inform your doctor or the technologist performing the test if you are pregnant or think that you may be pregnant. You will be asked to remove all clothing above the waist and you will be given a hospital gown to wear. The results of your mammogram will be given to your doctor, who will discuss with you what the test results could mean and what further tests might be recommended. If you do not receive your results within two weeks, do not assume the results are normal. Contact your doctor and the mammogram facility to get confirmation of the results.
system: Why do you need a mammogram?
output: Research has shown that mammography can increase breast cancer survival. Your cooperation for these few seconds is important to get a clear picture. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists states that women in their 20s and 30s should get a clinical breast exam with their doctor at least every three years, and annually after the age of 45.
system: How can you prepare for a possible heart attack before you have one?
output: Nobody plans on having a heart attack. It's best to be prepared. Steps you can take before symptoms start include: Memorize the list of heart attack symptoms and warning signs. Remember that you need to call 911 within 5 minutes of when they begin. Talk to family and friends about the warning signs and the importance of calling 911 immediately. Know your risk factors and do what you can to reduce them. Create a heart attack survival plan that includes information about medicines you're taking, your allergies, your doctor's number, and people to contact in case you go to the hospital. Keep this information in your wallet. Arrange to have someone care for your dependents if an emergency happens.
system: What are the warning signs for a heart attack?
output: Common ones may include: Chest discomfort that feels like pressure, fullness, or a squeezing pain that lasts for more than a few minutes or goes away and comes back. Pain and discomfort that go beyond your chest to other parts of your upper body, like one or both arms, or your back, neck, stomach, teeth, and jaw Unexplained shortness of breath, with or without chest discomfort Other symptoms, such as: Cold sweats Nausea or vomiting Lightheadedness Anxiety, indigestion Unexplained fatigue Women are more likely than men to have additional issues, like neck, shoulder, upper back, or abdominal pain. If you or someone you're with has chest discomfort or other heart attack symptoms, call 911 right away.
system: What should I do if  someone is having a heart attack and paramedics has not yet arrived?
output: Try to keep the person calm, and have them sit or lie down. If the person is not allergic to aspirin, have them chew and swallow a baby aspirin. ( It works faster when chewed and not swallowed whole.) If the person stops breathing, you or someone else who's qualified should perform CPR right away. If you don't know CPR, the 911 operator can help you until EMS personnel arrive.
system: How can I tell if somebody is having a heart attack?
output: Not all heart attacks begin with the sudden, crushing chest pain that most of us have heard about. In fact, some cause no symptoms at all, especially those that happen to people with diabetes. They may begin slowly, with mild pain and discomfort. They can happen while you're at rest or active. How severe they are can depend on your age, gender, and medical conditions.
system: Why does quick action matter with a heart attack?
output: Immediate treatment lessens heart damage and saves lives. The longer you wait for treatment, the more chances of survival go down and damage to the heart goes up. About half of those who die from heart attacks do so within the first hour after symptoms begin.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C lead to mental health troubles?
output: Hep C can take a toll on your mental health as well. You may have trouble remembering things or a hard time paying attention. You could also feel very tired and worn out.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C lead to skin problems?
output: Hep C-related skin conditions can cause bumps, blisters, hair loss, itching, and patches that look light or dark. One common one is vitiligo, a condition that causes loss of color on the face, elbows, knees, and wrists.
system: How can treatment for hepatitis C help?
output: That can help you reverse or prevent health problems and keep you from spreading the virus to other people. The infection hurts your liver the most. The virus makes it swell.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C lead to high blood sugar?
output: Your pancreas will pump out more insulin, a hormone that helps move sugar into your cells. That means too much sugar will stay in your blood. Over time, your body could stop responding to the effects of insulin. Both can lead to type 2 diabetes. Can you die from hepatitis?
system: How can untreated hepatitis C lead to blood and vessel problems?
output: Without treatment of a chronic infection, about 75% to 85% of people who have it get a long-term infection called chronic hepatitis C. If the condition goes untreated, it can lead to: Cirrhosis, or scarring of the liver Liver cancer Liver failure People with hepatitis C often get a condition called cryoglobulinemia. This happens when certain proteins in your blood stick together in cold weather. They can build up in vessels and block blood flow, which causes swelling and damage. The condition can affect your skin, organs, nerves, and joints. Hepatitis C also can cause problems with blood itself. If you don't treat hep C, it can lead to fatal conditions like liver failure and liver cancer.
system: How does treatment help with hepatitis C if you've had it for a while?
output: When you see your doctor and start treatment for a chronic hep C infection, you can prevent these problems, improve them, or keep them from getting worse. New drugs can clear the virus from your body in a few months with fewer side effects than older medicines. If there's no virus in your blood 3 months after treatment, you're considered cured. Getting rid of the infection protects others, too. People who get hep C treatment greatly lower the odds that they will pass the virus to someone else.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C affect your blood?
output: Hepatitis C also can cause problems with blood itself. You may not make enough white blood cells, which fight infections, or platelets, which help your blood clot. The infection can also make you bruise easily or get red or purple spots under your skin. Those are signs of a bleeding disorder called immune thrombocytopenic purpura. If you don't treat hep C, it can lead to fatal conditions like liver failure and liver cancer.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C lead to nerve problems?
output: Both can lead to type 2 diabetes. Another condition, called paresthesia, is a feeling of tingling or numbness in your skin.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C lead to joint and muscle pain?
output: If you don't treat hep C, it can lead to fatal conditions like liver failure and liver cancer. A condition called arthralgia causes joint pain and is common in people with hepatitis C. It's different from arthritis, which causes pain and swelling in joints. But infected people can also get hepatitis C-related arthritis. Fibromyalgia, which causes body aches and muscle pain, is also common in people with hepatitis C. People with hepatitis C are about 40% more likely to get long-term kidney disease than those who are not infected.
system: How can untreated hepatitis C affect you?
output: The virus makes it swell. Without treatment of a chronic infection, about 75% to 85% of people who have it get a long-term infection called chronic hepatitis C. If the condition goes untreated, it can lead to: Cirrhosis, or scarring of the liver Liver cancer Liver failure People with hepatitis C often get a condition called cryoglobulinemia. If you don't treat hep C, it can lead to fatal conditions like liver failure and liver cancer. Hepatitis C can make it hard for your body's cells to take in sugar from the food you eat. A condition called arthralgia causes joint pain and is common in people with hepatitis C. It's different from arthritis, which causes pain and swelling in joints. It mostly affects your feet and legs. The hep C infection activates your immune system so it can fight the virus. People who get hep C treatment greatly lower the odds that they will pass the virus to someone else. From there, it depends on what type of cirrhosis you have, your treatment, and if you can get a liver transplant.
system: How can you exercise safely if you have heart disease?
output: Ask about things like pushups and situps. These involve straining muscles against other muscles or a heavy object. You may need to avoid them. Make sure that lifting and pushing heavy objects, and chores like raking, shoveling, mowing, and scrubbing, aren't off-limits. Chores around the house can drain some people. Do only what you can do without getting tired. Some drugs can greatly affect how your body handles exercise. Your doctor can let you know if you need to change your exercise plans because of what you're taking.
system: When should you stop exercising if you have heart problems?
output: Stop activity if you get a rapid or irregular heartbeat or have heart palpitations. If it's still more than 100 beats per minute, call the doctor. Don't ignore it. Stop and rest if you: Feel weak Are dizzy or light-headed Have unexplained weight gain or swelling -- call the doctor right away Feel pressure or pain in your chest, neck, arm, jaw, or shoulder Are concerned for any reason Call the doctor if those feelings don't go away.
system: Who is at risk of getting a detached retina?
output: You're more likely to get one if you: Are severely nearsighted Have had an eye injury or cataract surgery Have a family history of retinal detachment A detached retina doesn't hurt.
system: What are the symptoms of a detached retina?
output: You're more likely to get one if you: Are severely nearsighted Have had an eye injury or cataract surgery Have a family history of retinal detachment A detached retina doesn't hurt. It can happen with no warning at all. But you might notice: Flashes of light Seeing lots of new "floaters" (small flecks or threads) Darkening of your peripheral (side) vision If you have any of those symptoms, contact your eye doctor immediately.
system: How is a detached retina treated using laser (thermal) or freezing (cryopexy)?
output: Your doctor has several options: Laser (thermal) or freezing (cryopexy). Both methods can repair a tear if it is diagnosed early enough. The procedures are often done in the doctor's office.
system: How is a detached retina treated using a scleral buckle?
output: In this surgical procedure, the doctor sews a silicone band (buckle) around the white of your eye (she'll call it the sclera). This pushes it toward the tear until it heals. This band is invisible and is permanently attached. Laser or cryo treatment can seal the tear.
system: How can you protect your eyes from a detached retina?
output: Wear eye protection if you need it. Try sports goggles with polycarbonate lenses if you play racquetball or other sports that could harm your eyes. You may also need special glasses if you work with machines, chemicals, or tools for your job or at home.
system: Can you prevent a detached retina?
output: Sometimes. Get to your eye doctor immediately if you develop new floaters, see flashing lights, or notice any other changes in your vision. Early is always better than late when it comes to treating retinal tears, detachments, and other serious issues. An eye exam can also flag early changes in your eyes that you may not have noticed. Treating those could prevent problems down the road.
system: What should I do to prevent a retinal tear if I have diabetes or high blood pressure?
output: If you have diabetes or high blood pressure, keep those conditions under control. That will help keep the blood vessels in your retina healthy.
system: Will an eye exam help prevent a detached retina?
output: An eye exam can also flag early changes in your eyes that you may not have noticed. Treating those could prevent problems down the road.
system: Does eye protection help prevent a retinal tear?
output: Try sports goggles with polycarbonate lenses if you play racquetball or other sports that could harm your eyes. You may also need special glasses if you work with machines, chemicals, or tools for your job or at home.
system: Can I prevent a detached retina?
output: Get to your eye doctor immediately if you develop new floaters, see flashing lights, or notice any other changes in your vision. Early is always better than late when it comes to treating retinal tears, detachments, and other serious issues.
system: How is a retinal tear diagnosed?
output: The doctor will give you eye drops that widen your pupil (she'll call this dilating your eyes).
system: What kind of surgery repairs a retinal tear?
output: In this surgical procedure, the doctor sews a silicone band (buckle) around the white of your eye (she'll call it the sclera). This pushes it toward the tear until it heals. This band is invisible and is permanently attached. Laser or cryo treatment can seal the tear. Vitrectomy.
system: What is a retinal tear?
output: If your retina gets torn, the fluid inside your eye can leak underneath and separate the retina from its underlying tissue.
system: What is a detached retina?
output: This serious eye condition happens when your retina -- a layer of tissue at the back of your eye that processes light -- pulls away from the tissue around it. If your retina gets torn, the fluid inside your eye can leak underneath and separate the retina from its underlying tissue.
system: What are partial (focal) seizures?
output: This type begins in a specific area of the brain. They may spread to the entire brain. There are two types: If you have a focal onset aware seizure, you remain conscious. The seizure is very brief (usually less than 2 minutes). You may or may not be able to respond to people while it's happening. Focal onset impaired awareness seizures can cause unconsciousness. You may also do things without knowing it, like lip smacking, chewing, moving your legs, or thrusting your pelvis.
system: What causes seizures?
output: Or, in some severe cases, it may cause unconsciousness and convulsions, when your body shakes uncontrollably. Children get them more often than adults.
system: How do seizures happen?
output: !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(); }); } Seizures usually come on suddenly. How long and severe they are can vary. A seizure can happen to you just once, or over and over. If they keep coming back, that's epilepsy, or a seizure disorder. Less than one in 10 people who have a seizure get epilepsy. This type begins in a specific area of the brain. You may or may not be able to respond to people while it's happening. Focal onset impaired awareness seizures can cause unconsciousness.
system: What should I do if I feel dizzy?
output: If you feel dizzy, sit or lie down at once. This will lower your chance of falling down. If you have vertigo, it may help to lie down in a dark, quiet place with your eyes closed.
system: What can I feel during a spell of dizziness?
output: During a spell of dizziness, you may feel as though you're spinning or moving when you're not (that's called vertigo). You may also feel: Lightheaded or faint Unsteady on your feet Woozy, as though your head is heavy or floating Learn more about what to do when you're in the middle of a dizzy spell, when to call a doctor, and what might cause it.
system: What are other causes of dizziness?
output: Some other causes of dizziness include: Medicines, such as antidepressants, anti-seizure drugs, tranquilizers and sedatives. If you take medication for high blood pressure, it might lower your blood pressure too much, leaving you feeling faint. Anxiety disorders. These include panic attacks. Low iron levels in your blood. This is also called anemia. Other signs that you are anemic include fatigue, pale skin and weakness. Low blood sugar. This is also called hypoglycemia. This may be a problem if you are diabetic and use insulin. Other symptoms include sweating and anxiety.
system: Can drinking water help my dizziness?
output: Drinking water may also give you fast relief, especially if you're dizzy because you're dehydrated.
system: If I feel dizzy, what can I do to keep myself safe?
output: If you've had a series of dizzy spells, there are things you can do to make yourself safer. Here are some of them: Remove tripping hazards in your home, such as rugs on the floor, so that you're less likely to fall. Avoid alcohol, caffeine and tobacco, which can make symptoms worse. Drink enough fluids and get plenty of sleep. Be aware of things that trigger your dizziness, such as lights, noise, and fast movement, and try to be around them less or move more slowly.
system: What should I do if I feel dizzy and have other symptoms?
output: You should seek help at once if you're dizzy and also have: Chest pain or shortness of breath Severe headache Sudden change in your vision or hearing, or trouble speaking Numbness or weakness A head injury High fever Stiffness in your neck Keeping you upright and balanced is not an easy job for the brain.
system: Is feeling dizzy a serious problem?
output: Dizziness is a common problem and usually isn't serious.
system: Can surgery be used to treat heart failure?
output: In heart failure, surgery may sometimes prevent further damage to the heart and improve the heart's function.
system: How can scheduling regular doctor appointments prevent heart failure from worsening?
output: During follow-up visits, your doctors will make sure you are staying healthy and that your heart failure is not getting worse. Your doctor will ask to review your weight record and list of medications. If you have questions, write them down and bring them to your appointment. Call your doctor if you have urgent questions. Notify all your doctors about your heart failure, medications, and any restrictions. Also, check with your heart doctor about any new medications prescribed by another doctor. Keep good records and bring them with you to each doctor visit.
