system: How is body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)?
output: People with obsessive compulsive disorder ( OCD) have recurring and distressing thoughts, fears, or images (obsessions) that they cannot control. The anxiety (nervousness) produced by these thoughts leads to an urgent need to perform certain rituals or routines (compulsions). With BDD, a person's preoccupation with the defect often leads to ritualistic behaviors, such as constantly looking in a mirror or picking at the skin. The person with BDD eventually becomes so obsessed with the defect that his or her social, work, and home functioning suffers.
system: Why is it hard to diagnose body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: Most experts agree that many cases of BDD go unrecognized. People with the disorder often are embarrassed and reluctant to tell their doctors about their concerns. As a result, the disorder can go unnoticed for years or never be diagnosed. One red flag to doctors is when patients repeatedly seek plastic surgery for the same or multiple perceived physical defects.
system: What is body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: Body dysmorphic disorder ( BDD) is a distinct mental disorder in which a person is preoccupied with an imagined physical defect or a minor defect that others often cannot see. As a result, people with this disorder see themselves as "ugly" and often avoid social exposure or turn to plastic surgery to try to improve their appearance.
system: What are the warning signs of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: Some of the warning signs that a person may have BDD include: Engaging in repetitive and time-consuming behaviors, such as looking in a mirror, picking at the skin, and trying to hide or cover up the perceived defect Constantly asking for reassurance that the defect is not visible or too obvious Repeatedly measuring or touching the perceived defect Experiencing problems at work or school, or in relationships due to the inability to stop focusing about the perceived defect Feeling self-conscious and not wanting to go out in public, or feeling anxious when around other people Repeatedly consulting with medical specialists, such as plastic surgeons or dermatologists, to find ways to improve his or her appearance The exact cause of BDD is not known.
system: How can medication help with treating body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: Medication: Certain antidepressant medications called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors ( SSRIs) are showing promise in treating body dysmorphic disorder, as are antipsychotic medicines such as olanzapine, aripiprazole, or pimozide (either alone or in combination with an SSRI). No drug is formally FDA-approved for the treatment of BDD.
system: What causes body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: One theory suggests the disorder involves a problem with the size or functioning of certain brain areas that process information about body appearance. The fact that BDD often occurs in people with other mental health disorders, such as major depression and anxiety, further supports a biological basis for the disorder.
system: How is body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) diagnosed?
output: In diagnosing BDD, the doctor will likely begin his or her evaluation with a complete history and focused physical exam.

The psychiatrist or psychologist makes a diagnosis based on his or her assessment of the person's attitude, behavior, and symptoms.
system: What factors might lead to or trigger body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: Other factors that might influence the development of or trigger BDD include: Experience of traumatic events or emotional conflict during childhood Low self-esteem Parents and others who were critical of the person's appearance Pressure from peers and a society that equates physical appearance with beauty and value also can have an impact on the development of BDD.
system: How can psychotherapy help with treating body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: Treatment for BDD likely will include a combination of the following therapies: Psychotherapy: This is a type of individual counseling that focuses on changing the thinking (cognitive therapy) and behavior (behavioral therapy) of a person with body dysmorphic disorder. The goal is to correct the false belief about the defect and to minimize the compulsive behavior.
system: How can you prevent body dysmorphic disorder (BDD)?
output: There is no known way to prevent BDD. However, it might be helpful to begin treatment in people as soon as they begin to have symptoms. Teaching and encouraging healthy and realistic attitudes about body image also might help prevent the development or worsening of BDD. Finally, providing the person with an understanding and supporting environment might help decrease the severity of the symptoms and help him or her better cope with the disorder.

These tendons are bands of tough tissue that connect the muscles of your lower arm to the bone. Despite its name, you can still get tennis elbow even if you've never been near a tennis court. Instead, any repetitive gripping activities, especially if they use the thumb and first two fingers, may contribute to tennis elbow.
system: How does tennis elbow develop?
output: Tennis elbow usually develops over time. Repetitive motions -- like gripping a racket during a swing -- can strain the muscles and put too much stress on the tendons. That constant tugging can eventually cause microscopic tears in the tissue.
system: When might surgery be needed to treat tennis elbow?
output: But if you have a severe case of tennis elbow that doesn't respond to two to four months of conservative treatment, you may need surgery. In the procedure, the damaged section of tendon usually is removed and the remaining tendon repaired. Surgery works in about 85%-90% of cases.
