What are the warning signs of Carpal Tunnel? What are the best treatments for Carpal Tunnel? #carpaltunnel #carpaltunneltreatments What is Carpal Tunnel? The carpal tunnel is a narrow passage in your wrist, through which your median nerve and the tendons to your thumb and fingers pass. If you have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, your median nerve is squashed, from pressure on it. What are the Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel? * Numbness or tingling in your thumb and fingers * Pain in your wrist, which can shoot into your fingers, or sometimes up to your elbow. * Muscle weakness, especially if you have to grip something. * Night symptoms - eg burning pain, or when doing the same task for a long time, like long-distance driving. What are the Causes of Carpal Tunnel? We don't always know, exactly. Anything that causes swelling in the carpal tunnel can cause it. It can happen if your tendons become inflamed, putting pressure on your median nerve. It can happen in one or both wrists. It is more common in women. Some conditions that can cause your wrists to swell can also cause carpal tunnel syndrome, or make it worse. They include: * pregnancy * obesity * fluid retention * diabetes and hypothyroidism * rheumatoid arthritis and connective tissue diseases * wrist wounds or broken bones. * after forceful or repetitive movements of your wrist or hand.

How can you prevent gout naturally? What is the main cause of Gout? What should you do if your uric acid is high? #gout #preventgout #preventgoutnaturally What is Gout? Gout is a common form of arthritis that causes your joints to swell painfully. It's caused by a chemical in your blood called uric acid. If there's too much uric acid in your blood, it turns into tiny, sharp, glass-like crystals. The crystals collect in your joints and irritate the tissues causing inflammation, swelling, and pain – a gout attack. Gout can damage your joints and your kidneys if it's not treated. Who gets Gout? It affects around 1% of the population. It tends to run in families. Generally, uric acid levels are elevated for 20 years before gout develops. In men uric acid levels rise at puberty so gout is often diagnosed in their 4th to 6th decade of life. Oestrogen protects young women from gout; uric acid levels rise at menopause and gout is often diagnosed in their 6th to 8th decade of life. High Purine Foods: * Alcoholic beverages (all types) * Some fish, seafood and shellfish, including anchovies, sardines, herring, mussels, codfish, scallops, trout and haddock * Some meats, such as bacon, turkey, veal, venison and organ meats like liver and kidney * Yeast extracts such as Marmite and Vegemite * Meat extracts such as Bovril. High Uric Acid Causes? * A diet that is high in animal-based protein, especially meat and seafood. * Moderate to high alcohol intake, especially of beer. * High intake of fructose, a sugar found in sugar-sweetened soft drinks and fruit juices (apples and oranges). * Being overweight * Kidney disease makes it harder to get rid of uric acid * Some types of anaemia (Haemolytic anaemia and Pernicious anaemia). * Medications Medications that cause high Uric Acid levels: • Furosemide eg Lasix • Thiazide diuretics eg Bendrofluazide • Immunosuppressants eg Ciclosporin • Low dose Aspirin Please discuss your medications with your pharmacist if you are unsure. Gout Research Papers: 1. The association of vitamin C, alcohol, coffee, tea, milk and yogurt with uric acid and gout.

What causes kidney stones? How long does it take to pass a kidney stone? How do you prevent kidney stones? #kidneystones #preventkidneystones WHAT are Kidney Stones? Kidney (renal) stones are a common and painful medical problem. They happen when there are too many crystals in your urine, which stick together and form hard stones. These stones can be as small as a grain of rice or as large as an apple. They can happen anywhere in your urinary system, such as your kidneys, one of the tubes that drain urine from your kidneys (called your ureters) or your bladder. What CAUSES Kidney Stones? There are several reasons you might get kidney stones. 1. A lack of chemicals in your urine can allow the crystals to stick together to form stones. Kidney stones happen more often when your urine becomes concentrated. This means that people who live in warm climates have a higher risk of developing kidney stones as they may become dehydrated. 2. Eating certain foods such as foods high in salt increases the risk. 3. Having a family or personal history of kidney stones is also an increased risk. 4. Some kidney stones happen because you have high levels of chemicals such as calcium, uric acid or oxalate in your blood. These lead to different types of kidney stones such as: CALCIUM STONES Calcium stones are the commonest type. They happen if you have a lot of calcium in your blood. You're more likely to get calcium stones if you don't drink enough fluid and you eat a lot of salt. URIC ACID STONES These stones are more common in men than in women. They happen because your urine is too acidic and there's a lot of uric acid in your blood. You're more likely to get uric acid stones if you don't drink enough fluid and you eat a lot of fish and red meat, especially offal meats such as liver, kidney and brains. STRUVITE STONES These are slightly more common in women who get repeated urine infections. They're made up of magnesium, ammonium and phosphate. What are the SYMPTOMS of Kidney Stones? Some people have no symptoms or mild symptoms such as aching in their lower back and urine infections. Sometimes the stones are found by chance when having an X-ray or scan for another reason. If the stone moves from your kidney towards your bladder, you can get severe pain. You can also feel like you need to pass urine more often. Sometimes people can pass kidney stones in their urine and have no or few symptoms. But kidney stones can get stuck and cause a blockage. This is called renal colic, and can be very painful. The symptoms of renal colic include: * pain that comes and goes. * pain in your lower back or the side of your abdomen * blood in your urine (your urine can look pink) * feeling sick and vomiting * a high temperature (fever), which can happen if you get a urine infection. If you have any of these symptoms, see your GP or after-hours healthcare provider as soon as possible for tests and pain relief. If you're very unwell, you may need to go to hospital. TESTS for Kidney Stones: * blood test * urine test * CT Scan How to PREVENT Kidney Stones: Most kidney stones are made of calcium and oxalate. They form when your urine has too much calcium and oxalate and not enough fluid. Oxalate is a naturally occurring substance that comes from many plants. It's also made in the body. To prevent Calcium Oxalate Stones: 1. Drink plenty of fluids (water) 2. Reduce your salt intake 3. Eat plenty of calcium rich foods 4. Choose small servings of animal protein foods 5. Avoid high-dose vitamin C supplements Want to see more videos about health? Let me know in the comments below.

How do you know you have Social Anxiety? Can Social Anxiety be cured? Dr Sam explains 6 ways to overcome Social Anxiety. #socialanxiety #socialanxietytreatment What is Social Anxiety? Social Anxiety is a type of anxiety disorder that is much more than just being shy – it's an intense fear that when you are in a social situation you will be judged, humiliated or embarrassed. Most people with social anxiety know that it's not rational to be so scared of social situations, but they feel they can't control their fear. Social anxiety can sometimes occur when doing common things when others are around - such as eating, speaking, drinking, writing or going to the bathroom. It can lead to withdrawing from contact with others and affecting your everyday activities, self-confidence, relationships, and work or school life. Social anxiety often starts in your pre-teen years. What are the SYMPTOMS of Social Anxiety? * worry about your performance and being judged by others when you are in social situations * dread or avoid everyday activities, such as meeting strangers, starting conversations, speaking on the phone, catching public transport, or talking to shop assistants * avoid or worry a lot about social activities, such as group conversations, eating with company, and going to parties * worry about doing something in public that you think is embarrassing, such as blushing, sweating, or making some social error * find it difficult to do things when others might be watching – like eating, drinking, or writing * often have symptoms such as feeling queasy, hot, sweating, trembling or a pounding heartbeat (palpitations) when anticipating or entering social situations * have panic attacks panic attacks, where there is an overwhelming sense of fear and anxiety (usually only for a few minutes). What are the CAUSES of Social Anxiety? * A specific incident or event – if you experienced shame or humiliation in a particular situation, you may develop anxiety about similar situations or experiences that you associate with that event. * Family environment – parents who were very worried or anxious when you were growing up can have an effect on the way you cope with anxiety in later life, and you may even develop the same anxiety as a parent or older sibling. * Genetics – some people appear to be born with a tendency to be more anxious than others, which can develop into an anxiety disorder. * Long-term stress – this can cause feelings of anxiety and depression, and reduce your perceived ability to cope in particular situations. This can make you feel more fearful or anxious about being in those situations again, and over a long period, may increase your anxiety about those situations. Sleep Hygiene Tips: * Go to bed at the same time each night and get up at the same time each morning, including on the weekends * Make sure your bedroom is quiet, dark, relaxing, and at a comfortable temperature * Remove electronic devices, such as TVs, computers, and smart phones, from the bedroom * Avoid large meals, caffeine, and alcohol before bedtime * Get some exercise. Being physically active during the day can help you fall asleep more easily at night. PLEASE READ: If you or someone you know is in immediate danger or crisis, please call a local emergency telephone number or go immediately to the nearest emergency room.

Alprostadil. This video reviews Alprostadil (Caverject) and honestly looks at the pros and cons of using Caverject for Erectile Dysfunction. #alrpostadil #caverject #penileinjections ED (Erectile Dysfunction) can affect men from age 30 and upwards and can be very distressing and frustrating for both men and their partners. Erectile Dysfunction cause: Erection problems may be caused by non-medical problems such as tiredness, too much alcohol or recreational drug use, stress, depression or relationship problems. Medical causes include problems with blood flow to your penis, hormones, prostate problems or surgery, and certain medications. How does Alprostadil work? Caverject is a synthetic version of a naturally occurring hormone in our body called prostaglandin-E1. The penis normally produces small amounts of prostaglandin-E1 when you are sexually aroused. This hormone relaxes smooth muscle so that blood can flow into the penis to get an erection. Alprostadil (Caverject) cannot be taken: * in men who have a known allergy to Alprostadil * in men who have conditions such as sickle cell anemia or sickle cell trait, multiple myeloma, or leukemia * in men with fibrotic conditions of the penis, such as anatomical deformation, angulation, cavernosal fibrosis, or Peyronie’s disease * in men with penile implants * in men with very low blood pressure * in men taking blood thinner medications Side Effects of Caverject/Alprostadil: Local Side Effects Reported by ≥ 1% of Patients Treated with Caverject for up to 18 Months: * Penile pain - 37% * Prolonged erection - 4% * Penile fibrosis - 3% * Injection sitehematoma - 3% * Penisdisorder (numbness, irritation, sensitivity, redness, skin tear, discoloration, itching) - 3% * Injection siteecchymosis - 2% * Penile rash - 1% * Penile edema - 1% Studies: 1.
