The Prostate is a glandular organ present only in males. It surrounds the neck of bladder and the first part of urethra and condributes a secretion to the semen. The gland is conical in shape and measures 3 cm in vertical diameter and 4 cm in transverse diameter. It has five lobes: anterior, posterior,two lateral and a median lobe. Since the first part of the male urethra passses through the prostate, any lesion in the prostate will produce difficulty in passing urine.

• Site of tumor: Prostate cancer is seen mainly in the posterior lobe. Non cancerous enlargement is seen in other lobes.
• Changes in the gland in cancer: The gland becomes hard with irregular surface with loss of normal lobulation. Histologically prostate cancer is an adeno carcinoma(cancer of the epithelial cells in the gland)
• Growth: Growth rate is very fast in prostate cancer. The tumour compresses the urethra and produce difficulty in urination.

Spread of tumour: Metastasis in cancer of prostate is very early.

1) Local spread: From the posterior lobe the cancer cells go to the lateral lobes and seminal vesicles.Tumour cells also move to the neck and base of the urinary bladder.

2) Lymphatic spread: Through the lymph vessels cancer cells reach the internal and external illiac group of lymph nodes. From there cells move to retroperitonial(Behind the peritonium) and mediastinal lymph nodes(in the chest)

3) Spread through the blood: Spread of cancer cells takeplace through the periprostatic venous plexus and reaches the vertebral veins while coughing and sneezing and finally enders the vertebral bodies of the lumbar vertebrae.

3) When the tumor spread to all nearby areas including neck of bladder and urethra there will be painful urination with bleeding.Urine comes drop by drop.

4) Retention of urine: When the urethra is completely compressed there will be retention of urine.This can lead to hydronephrosis, renal failure ect. In this condition patient may get convulsions due to renal failure and finally coma.

5) Signs of metastasis: Some patients come with the signs and symptoms of metastasis.

• a) Lumbo sacral pain due to spread of cancer cells to lumbar and sacral vertebrae.
• b) Fracture of spine due to cancerous growth in the spine.
• c) Swelling, pain and fluid collection in the abdomen due to lesion in the abdomen.
• d) Respiratory complaints due to cancer of mediastinal lymphnodes and lungs.
• e) General weakness due to spread of cancer to different parts of the body.
• f) Anaemia due to involment of bone marrow and increased destruction of RBCs.

92. Use aromatherapy – there are now many of these aromatherapy
methods available in the market, including the internet. Majority of
these products work as promised and are great techniques in helping
heal certain ailments and colds as well as relieve stress.

93. Do not let work stress you. To some people, their work is a form of
stress, something they cannot look forward to but still do everyday for
the sake of earning a living. This should not be the case. Instead, you
should learn how to enjoy your work or at least make it quit acceptable
by being more organized avoiding annoying co-workers.

94. Know when to tune out – by learning when to tune out, you will be able
to give your mind and body the proper rest it needs particularly from
gossipy co-workers and friends, from e-mail or Twitter messages, or
just about anything going on around you that could just give you
unnecessary excitement or even irritation.

95. Learn to say no – you can say no to anything that you think will only
cause you harm like eating bad food, taking alcohol, doing stressful
events, losing sleep over something and any other stressful things that
will only lead to an unhealthy lifestyle. Saying no to these will do you
well.

96. Lead a simple life – by doing this, you can put more concentration of
keeping your body and your lifestyle healthy. The more things you do,
the less time you will have to think of things that will make you aware of
the harmful toxins and chemicals present in the environment that can
give you harm. Making it simple though will also allow you time for
yourself.

97. Learn to sustain what you already achieved – having a healthy and
proper diet is already difficult. Even harder is the task of sustaining it
and making sure that what you achieved previously in terms of your
health and detoxification is not wasted by just going back to your bad
habits.

98. Leave the couch and get yourself moving to achieve a healthy lifestyle.
Remember that resisting the temptation to sit on your couch the whole
day means fighting off the temptation to the main culprits of obesity,
such as overeating (especially of junk foods), oversleeping, and, of
course, the unhealthy sedentary living.

99. Make your exercise or fitness regimen fun and interesting by
including others in your daily routine. Take for example, walking at the
park with your loveable dog, or jogging every morning with your best
friend. In some cases, join exercise groups to gain new friends and get
more advice about exercising.

100. Choose an exercise or fitness regimen that you know you
can handle. Not all exercises work for everyone. So be sure to get your
research done first, especially if you are eying on a new exercise
program. Talk to your body, and see how far you think your system can
go before deciding which fitness program to pursue.

101. Human body loves predictability, just like any other animal or machine.
Eat at fixed times, with fixed time gaps between meals, and have a set menu
for the week, keeping diet as simple as you can. This will give siginificant
boost to your energy levels and immune system.

More About Acid Reflux:  While it’s not uncommon to experience these symptoms sporadically, if they occur twice a week or more you have acid reflux disease. Risk factors include being overweight, pregnancy, eating large meals or lying down after a meal. Acid reflux can also be caused by lack of digestive enzymes. And for that, Digestive Science Reflux Elimination System is ideal because it is a safe and natural therapy to treat a common cause of acid reflux and reduce the pain that it causes. And similarly, just as acid reflux may signify that all’s not well with the state of your body, Reflux Elimination System may be a wise investment for your health and your comfort.

Among the various health problems, acid reflux may lead to:

• Esophagitis – Prolonged reflux can irritate the tube that connects the throat to the stomach, a condition called esophagitis, which can lead to further erosion and scarring.
• Esophageal Stricture – Esophagitis can also cause scar tissue to narrow the esophagus in a process called a stricture. When this happens, large pieces of food can get stuck and may require surgery for removal. Strictures can also cause weight loss and make it difficult to swallow.
• Throat/Voice Problems – One of the lesser known symptoms of reflux, patients with acid reflux can develop hoarseness, voice problems, chronic sore throat and the sensation of a lump in the throat.
• Breathing Problems – Reflux can make asthma or pneumonia worse if stomach acid is inhaled after it’s regurgitated and can cause shortness of breath.
• Tooth Decay – Stomach acid is supposed to stay in the stomach. If it’s frequently regurgitated, it can erode the tooth enamel. In a study conducted by the University of Alabama, 40% of reflux patients had advanced tooth decay.
• Acid reflux can also cause stomach ulcers, esophageal cancer and lower quality of life.

Answer: Yeast infections result from an overgrowth of yeast in the body. It begins in the intestines, where the candida organism exists normally in small amounts, but it can frequently spread elsewhere in the body, creating what is known as “systemic candidiasis” or “candida syndrome.”

Question: Is Yeast Infection common?

Answer: Yes, it is. About 75 percent of women and men have a yeast infection during their lives. And almost half of women have two or more yeast infections. A vaginal yeast infection is irritation of the vagina and the area around the vagina, called the vulva. It is caused by an overgrowth of the fungus or yeast Candida. Yeast normally live in the vagina in small numbers, but when the bacteria in the vagina become out of balance, too many yeast grow and hence cause an infection.

Question: What are the symptoms of vaginal yeast infection and vulvitis?

Answer: Vaginal yeast infection and vulvitis cause symptoms that are nonspecific, which means that aside from the yeast infection, other conditions can cause the identical symptoms. The most common symptom of a vaginal yeast infection is itching in the vaginal and/or vulvar area.

Other symptoms of vaginal yeast infection and vulvitis include: burning, soreness, pain during intercourse and/or urination, and vaginal discharge. (Vaginal discharge is not always present, but when it occurs, the discharge is odorless and typically has a whitish, thick appearance and texture, like cottage cheese.)

Vulvitis can also cause local pain in addition to the above symptoms. Pain in the vulvar area is referred to as vulvodynia. In up to 5% of women, yeast vulvovaginitis may cause a recurrent problem.

A recurrent yeast infection occurs when a woman has four or more infections in one year that are not related to antibiotic use. Recurrent yeast infections may be related to an underlying medical condition and may require more aggressive treatment.

Question: How can I treat Yeast Infection?

Answer: Yeastrol is a homeopathic yeast infection relief product that provides instant relief to multiple symptoms of a yeast infection. Experts in homeopathic treatments have combined 12 ingredients to fight not just the itching but multiple symptoms of yeast infection from the inside out!

• Loss of libido: This can be a marriage killer if not handled properly. Hormonal changes are the primary cause of a lack of sexual desire. Other factors include medical conditions and psychological problems such as low self-esteem. Very often, we have noted that some medication side-effects are the main cause loss of female libido. If you suffer from a low body image, counseling and support from your partner can help you.
• Vaginal dryness: The most common cause for vaginal dryness is insufficient stimulation. You can also have dry vagina because of hormone imbalances or illnesses. Suitable medication can take care of these causes. A bad sexual experience or trauma can make intercourse painful. Psychological causes call for counseling. Physical causes can be treated with sufficient lubrication or trying positions that are more comfortable. Vaginal dryness can be treated by using artificial lubrication. There are a wide range of creams and gels for this purpose and some of them also enhance the stimulation in the vaginal skin, leading to more satisfaction.
• Vaginismus: This is a medical condition in which the muscles surrounding the vaginal opening constrict painfully thereby preventing intercourse or making penetration painful. Primary causes are injuries, trauma and childbirth. It can also be caused by an infection or irritation from condoms. Fear is a common factor. You must refrain from sex after surgery and childbirth since the vagina is raw and sour.
• Lack of orgasm: An absence of sexual climax can be caused by inhibition, inexperience, lack of knowledge, psychological factors such as anxiety and guilt, and medical problems such as diabetes, thyroid and obesity. This is not the same as the inability to be aroused, as many women have a happy married life even without reaching orgasms.

Stress as well as emotional, financial, relationship and medical problems all take a toll on you physically and mentally. These issues can also lead to sexual problems in women. These problems are common in urban women. And if they are ignored, you can harm your mental and physical state as well as your relationship. The right solutions can result in a huge improvement of your sexual life. Don’t wait for the situation to become worse.

Antibiotics, soap sensitivity, sexual transmission and pregnancy are some of the most common causes that cause a rectal yeast infection.

You will want to get familiar with the symptoms of a rectal yeast infection so you don’t confuse it with other vaginal infections.

When you start to feel dryness, burning or itching there are a few things that can be causing the symptoms.

Most often these symptoms are a sign of a rectal yeast infection since most women experience a yeast infection during their lifetime and a yeast infection is the most common vaginal irritation.

Although a rectal yeast infection has symptoms that are similar to other problems that can be a little more serious which is why it is important to visit your doctor.

Symptoms To Look For

Itching, redness, burning or swelling in the vaginal area are some of the standard symptoms of a rectal yeast infection.

There may also be a white discharge that looks like cottage cheese, dryness, irritation, pain during sexual intercourse and a burning sensation when urinating.

These symptoms will often occur to a varying degree from slightly painful to extremely uncomfortable.

Some women may also only experience a mild version of these symptoms with a rectal yeast infection.

A rectal yeast infection can be caused by birth control pills, antibiotics, sensitivity to soaps or douches, sexual transmission, pregnancy and diabetes.

The imbalance of the pH levels in the vagina can be affected by any of these which leads to the discomfort of itching and redness.

Often the symptoms of a rectal yeast infection can be cleared up quickly with many over the counter antifungal medications.

Some differences you should look for include a grayish discharge which is a symptom of a bacterial infection and it will often have a fishy odor.

You cannot cure a bacterial infection with over the counter OTC yeast medication.

Trichomoniasis is a sexually transmitted disease that is represented by a greenish-yellow discharge.

Vaginitis is another condition similar to a yeast infection, but it is often caused by a sensitivity to perfumed soaps, douches and bubble baths. The condition will usually clear up easily after you discontinue use of the offending product.

According to the scientists, the protein activates an anti-cancer gene, P53, which is already known to combat breast and other tumours.

In their research, the scientists, led by Professor Reuven Agami, found that the protein BRD7 activates P53 gene and could suppress the development of breast cancer, the Daily Express reported.

Without the protein, the gene cannot function to stop tumours spreading. The tumour suppressor P53 gene, which is present in all people, is implicated in up to half of all tumours.

A team of five doctors at AIIMS tried stem cell treatment for liver repair in children suffering from ‘biliary atresia’ and saw improvement in the physical condition of the children. The team doctors –  D K Gupta, Lalit Kumar, Shilpa Sharma, Sidharth Datta Gupta and Sujata Mohanty –were working on this experiment since 2005.

Comments by Dr D K Gupta, Professor and Head of the department, paediatric surgery, AIIMS:

We have tried stem cells in children suffering from biliary atresia. In some of children, these stem cells have regenerated as liver cells resulting in improvement in the physical condition of children. This is a positive beginning as liver is the most complex organ and is made up of large number of different cells. With bone marrow stem cells successfully regenerating into liver cells, we can say we have been able to locate the markers of these liver cells.

More than two relapses in a year would be considered as an aggressive MS and warrants consideration for a disease modifying course of medication. The individual relapses can be treated with high dose steroids either as injections or orally, under the advise of the neurologist.
