Quite a lot of people prioritise other aspects of their lives over good health. When the latest phones are released, everyone dashes to the store to buy his fancy, yet noone dashes to the pharmacy to buy the newest multivitamin, anti-aging, antioxidant, neurotransmitter supplement. I then wonder, how does "iphone 6" enhance longevity? How does N50,000 brazilian weavon enhance brain function? Everyone claims he's intelligent, everyone claims she's smart, yet they put their cats before their horses!

It's rather sad that people wait for things to go wrong before they prioritise and take their health seriously.

Many spend half of their fortunes on things they want, but spend dime on things they need!

Where
Is
The
Sense in that?!

People do say "Prevention is better than cure", "Health is wealth", but most people dnt really knw the full interpretation of the above statement.

Sickness,Diseases,sudden Death, dnt just happen suddenly, it is a gradual process that requires proper treatment in its early stage at a lower amount, in order to avoid spending more amount at the fullest stage.

I think Health awareness is highly needed.

It depends. The cause may range from contaminated water, stored water, skin reaction, soap type, disinfectants, skin probiotic inhibition, and hard scrubbing.

To cure it, you have to first figure out which among those factors is responsible.

So, which do you suspect?

Since you experinced it for quite awhile, then it's likely aquagenic urticaria, a condition in which there's skin pruritus after a shower.

hello house, pls where is the best and affordable place to visit for eye related problems. am beginning to experience a kind of bad sight in one of my eyes; though reasons can be attributed to a strong hit I had on the eye many years ago but resurface now and continues to geometrically deteriorate. A candid and urgent help will be very significant. thanks all

Send me a PM, I know of a good ophthalmologist. He's very competent, and has handled cases far more serious than this.

Or you could add me on BBM.


I could remember two cr*zy incidents that almost got me blind some years back. The first was I pulled out a nail from a cupboard forcibly. The thrust made the pliers and the nail hit me on my left eyes, my eye went blank. I yelled and called on the name of Jesus severally to save my eye. I slept and woke up not seeing with that eye. But after I was placed on treatment based on natural extracts, I regained my full left sight.

The other was super glue. It spilled into my eyes while I was trying to puncture it open. I screamed like a baby. My eye was boiling from the inside. It went blurred. I had to fall back on same treatment, and I regained my full sight after about 2weeks.

I felt Steven wonder's true pain with those two experinces. Now I don't joke with my eyes anymore.
Re: Health Advice: Doctors Online by Nobody: 2:33am On Nov 17, 2014
The eye is truly the light of the body!

Of all senses, the sight is surely the most precious!

How often do you care for your eye?

Is your eye getting all the nutrients it needs?

My eye is crystal clear and sharp because I give it all the nutrients it needs!

Retroverted uterus means the uterus is positioned or slanting backward. The cervix seems closed, rather than opened.

And yes, it can be a factor of infertility. The uterus will have to be repositioned, a term called 'hysteropexy'. A fertility massage I believe can help reposit the uterus in the normal or anteverted position.

Good morning everyone,i am new to NL but i have a little question for medical practitioners and doctors here..
I am a student,in my early 20s,a 200 level student, i am a very slim being which i detest sometimes,should i take steroid medications,does it have huge side effects. Suggest anything that will make me add some weight and body build. I am all ears
Re: Health Advice: Doctors Online by Nobody: 9:32am On Nov 18, 2014
Frenzydili:
i once met a gynea who told me dat d repositioning is a myth.pls have u come across someone dat repositioned hers.i have not concieved for once in life n i fear it may b d cause.was i born dat way or something caused it.i mean d retroversion.tanks.

People always give excuses for their failure or incompetence.

Many years back, if they had told that same gynae that men could be tranformed to women and women transformed to men through transgender procedure, he'd say it's a myth.

If they had told him many years back that a man could have a face transplant, he would say it's a myth.

If they had told him that cars could fly many years back, he would call it a myth.

But look at what we have today, we now have transgenders, facelift, and a flying car in the UK, how much more hysteropexy?!

If your hysteroptosis is congenital, then natural conception is impossible, and it's unlikely to be corrected by fertility massage, but could be corrected surgically.

But if the hysteroptosis is due to se*ual trauma or deep penetrative displacement, so to speak, then laparoscopic hysteropexy can reposit the uterus, as well as fertility massage. I've heard of some cases in which their uteri were restored.

The use of synthetic steroids has a consequence. The adverse effects supercede the benefits from the drugs. With the rise in cancer cases, I wouldn't advise you thread that path.

But guess what? I know of a natural extracts that would make you add some extra pounds of flesh/weight. Zero side effects because its a blend of natural products. You'll be so amazed.

lilmaydee:
u r very correct. I tend to have malarial/typhoid every 2 weeks. The thing has turned me into a drug addict. Which drugs do u recommend because i take artemether and lumefantrine anti-malarial each time i have malarial symptoms. Sometimes i go for mp and widal test. Mp=negative


If you feel sick every 2 weeks, don't just chunk it up to malaria amd typhoid.
Some of these organisms take time to clear out of the blood, even when they are no longer infective.
See a doctor for a total check-up and be sure something else is not going on in your body.
Taking all these medications often is dangerous for you and even the society at large as you tend to breed drug-resistant organisms.

Walk to a good hospital and do basic tests: your bp, sugar level, cbc, lfts, u&es should be a good start.

Pregnyl and clomid are both indicated for ovulation induction. Route of administration for pregnyl is IM, while clomid is oral. It's likely you didn't administer the pregnyl the right way thus, it blighted.

One thing about fibroid, it is estrogen and progesterone dependent. Consideration is necessary in prescribing pregnyl to ladies with history or active case of uterine fibroids.

I'll tell you how to go about this to get a good outcome.

The antibiotic you were given was responsible for your menstrual irregularities, as well as the the antimalarial.

The boil that seems to grow periodically is as a result of probiotic inhibition. The antibiotic must have suppressed the activities of "good guy skin flora" which curtail and regulate the virulence of the "bad guy skin flora" like Staph aureus. The Staph aureus is responsible for the boil you developed on your leg.

For the catarrh, I'll suspect the level of ascorbic acid in you is low.

As usual, I'll have to ask you to send a PM or add me on BBM. I wouldn't want to tell you wat to do or take on this thread lest someone else with similar case assumes it could work for her as well, and jump to self medication.

Yes it can, and it does affect fertility if left untreated. The form of Klebsiella infection your hubby has is UTI. It is responsible for the penial discharge he's having, and sadly, it can be transmitted sexually. It is not actually safe for you to indulge in unprotected s*x with him. You may need to abstain having s*x with him or u insist he uses cond*m till he's completely free from the infection.

Treatment would be in line with the outcome of his sensitivity test. So maybe you can send me an email with the result of his sensitivity test.

Please check your mail. I 've sent the sensitivity test.
