May God help His unfortunate patients during this striking period.

A coldblooded man you are seeing there. . A rare find indeed, akin to finding an African in a sauna trying to boil himself just to sweat.
You'll begin to wonder how long he has been praying to just have a feel of the sun even for a day in his country, but now he is here on our less than strong soak away pit that can cave in any minutes, sunbathing his life worth and at the same time saying fuc.k you skin cancer and heatstroke.
Thump up man...you're the man!!

No matter how careful we are, we can’t always escape the increasing number of diseases lurking in our daily lives in Nigeria, below are the most common of such diseases and how they can be effectively prevented.

1. Malaria: Malaria is leading cause of morbidity and mortality in our country, this disease is caused by plasmodium species whose vector is the anopheles mosquito; it is usually transmitted by mosquito bites.
Malaria can be prevented by eradicating mosquitoes or preventing bites, simple ways to do this include
 Keeping a clean environment; clear drainages and gutters
 Cut down grasses and clear swamps around your house
 Sleep under a mosquito net(preferably the treated ones)
 Spray your room with good insecticides twice weekly
 Window nets have been found to be helpful in preventing bites
 Mosquitoes are attracted by sweat, so it is essentially to take a bath before going to bed and making your bedroom cool
 See your physician once you notice this symptoms( fever, joints pain, headache, bitter taste in the mouth and fatigue)

2. Common cold or Flu : Common cold as the name depicts is everywhere, it is also known as nasopharyngitis or acute coryza is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract which affects the nose primarily causing sneezing, sore throat, cough and runny nose, it is usually self-resolving after about seven to ten days. The only possible ways to reduce the spread of the viruses are physical measures such as hand washing, reducing contact with anyone with symptoms and wearing of masks amongst health workers

3. HIV/AIDS : Human immunodeficiency virus is a slowly replicating retrovirus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; an infectious disease in which progressive decline and failure of the human immune system leads to life threatening opportunistic infections and cancer.it can be prevented by the following practice
 Proper use of condom during sexual intercourse
 Proper screening of blood before transfusion
 Avoid sharing share objects
 Safe injection practices
 Proper circumcision of male children
 Post exposure prophylaxis to health workers and rape victims

4. Pelvic Inflammatory disease : This is a term for inflammation of the uterus, fallopian tubes and/or ovaries as it may progress and lead to infertility; it is usually caused by bacteria, fungal or parasites. route of spread is usually via sexual intercourse or via post abortal sepsis and intrauterine device insertion. If untreated it could lead to infertility or ectopic pregnancy. Below are ways to prevent PID
 Abstinence /proper human sexual behaviour
 Use of barrier methods such as condoms or diaphragm
 Avoid vaginal douching
 Good personal hygiene; never wear a panties twice
 Periodic pelvic examination and STI testing to screen for symptomless PID
 See a gynaecologist once you notice any abnormal vaginal discharge
 Treating partners to prevent reinfection or spread to other people

5. Hypertension : This is also known as high blood pressure and it simply means that the blood pressures in the arteries are elevated and this requires the heart to work harder than normal to circulate blood through the vessels. Blood pressure is summarised by two measures systolic(when the heart contracts) and diastolic( when the cardiac muscles are relaxed).High blood pressure is present when the pressure is 140/90mmHg and above, this is a major risk factor for stroke, heart failure, myocardial infarction and chronic kidney disease. This disease can be prevented by the following
 Maintain normal body weight for adults; body mass index of 20-25kg/m2
 Reduce dietary salt intake
 Engage in regular aerobic exercise daily
 Limit alcohol consumption
 Eat lots of fruits and vegetables

6. Acute diarrhoea: Diarrhoea is very common water and food-borne disease. Caused by a wide range of enteric organism, symptoms include passage of loose stools, fever, abdominal cramps and sometimes vomiting. The ways to prevent diarrhoea include
 Avoid consumption of uncovered foods such as fruits cut and exposed
 Drink only potable water
 Avoid eating foods sold by food vendors and bukas
 Wash your hands before eating
 Wash your hand after you use the toilet

Independa:
Some Nigerians are jubilating over $2b loan from China and the so called Yuan trading deal.
China wants to lend us 2 billion dollars, but they want to give us in Yuan and not the dollar itself.

They are not handling us cash, but service exchange; meaning if we want to buy iron rod, we buy it from Chinese company and they pay the company on our behalf. If we want to construct railway, they will construct it for us and take the money out of the loan. In the end, we are bound to award contracts to them, cutting out competition from others and fairplay to others (non Chinese company can’t bid or compete to reduce the cost.) They get to value the contract and determine the price, meaning they can sell something worth 200 Naira for N2000 and we don’t have a choice ‘cos it is on credit.

The worst of it is that China want us to pay back in dollars, that is not all, we are moving our foreign reserve to fake currency (Yuan) a currency that is manipulated openly by the Chinese government. Did anyone ask Lamido Sanusi what happened to some of our reserve he moved to Yuan few years ago? They sold us Yuan at 4 to a dollar, only to devalue their currency few weeks latter to 9 Yuan per $.

Many Nigerians don’t know that even Chinese company don’t want yuan, nobody want it, Chinese foreign reserve is in dollars, China is the largest holder of US bond, they want dollars by all means.

Also, China have more lobbyists in Washington DC than any other nations on earth, begging Washington politicians to always make policy in their favour, how can such country save us from USD? Has anyone asked why China hasn’t built any refinery in Nigeria?? They have the money, they want the profit, but never did it.

If China does anything against Washington interest in Nigeria, USA have too much political power over China, they will just tell them not to do it. China will continue to inflate the contract price, refuse to complete the project and deceive us further.

I don’t blame Chinese leaders for trying to scam us, I blame our leaders for not being smart enough. What do you expect when you have political hacks negotiating on behalf of Nigeria against smart professionals from China. I was thinking Nigeria political leaders will do research about Chinese lobbyists in Washington and understand the interest they are protecting before believing in Chinese version of Trojan horse.

We are the only one that can help ourselves, let’s implement true federalism system and free market. Development is a culture and not a product, we can’t buy it no matter how much money we have or borrow..

You must be living in a PARALLEL world if you think that Nigeria’s intention of being a clearing house for the Yuan in Africa means the naira will now hold steady.

If you like tie your currency with Thailand Baht or Ghanaian Cedi, the value of your currency will always have the value it deserves.

Hong Kong for instance is an administrative region of China, but guess what, its currency is firmly tied to the US dollar!

The Yuan is not automatically going to be operating independent of the dollar to boost the naira in any way.

The only thing that has happened here is that the Yuan becomes an accepted currency of exchange to facilitate direct business with Chinese people. This will not in anyway strengthen the naira but the gains will be in the avoidance of double exchange from dollar to Yuan.

The Yuan will swing with the wind depending on what happens to the world’s controlling currency, the dollar.

The naira will continue its natural slide as you produce and export very little and even your trade with China becomes very expensive as the world’s comparative exchange rate will not wait for the Naira/Yuan pretend marriage. The value of the naira will continue to be subject to the international exchange rate, which is controlled by and inextricably linked to (you guessed it?) the DOLLAR!
The silly idea that this arrangement could crash the dollar is only palatable to people living in a cocoon, in a cuckoo land (Nigeria), with a totally warped sense of reality.

The real winners here are the Chinese who have found another place to ship their milling population to recolonise on the cheap.

Nigeria has taken the path of double parallel which will be unsustainable in the medium term as a consumer nation.

The naira will continue to fall unless you can sell more oil or start exporting something the rest of the world would pay you for.

My projection for the naira is 500 to $1 by year end if the oil price does not improve drastically and we sell oil, the only thing we ‘produce’.

please my fellow nairalanders, i don't know what is happening to my phone...i use an earpiece whenever i want to play music so that i won't be disturbing people around me but this time around, even when i plug the earpiece, it would be loud to the hearing of people around. please someone should profer a solution

Ever fall asleep while scrolling on your smartphone—or purposely leave it on your bed while you snooze? You’re not alone: 44% of cell phone owners have snoozed with their phone next to their bed to make sure they didn’t miss any crucial calls or texts, according to the Pew Internet Project.

Bad idea. Cell phones pump out electromagnetic radiation whenever they’re on – which means sleeping with one nearby boosts your exposure all night long.

Besides;
You could set your pillow on fire

A Texas teen recently woke up to a burning smell. The cause? Her Samsung Galaxy S4, which was under her pillow, had partially melted and it scorched her sheets and mattress, too. More specifically, it seems like a non-Samsung replacement phone battery was to blame: the phone’s instruction manual warns against using incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers. The manual also notes that there’s a risk of a fire if the gadget is covered by bedding or other thick material. Bottom line: Stick to phone accessories from the original manufacturer, and don’t leave your cell on your bed.

Youcould keep yourself awake

Cell phones (and tablets, TVs, and other gadgets with LED screens) give off what’s known as blue light—a type that studies suggest can inhibit the production of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin and disrupt our circadian rhythms. This may be because blue light emits wavelengths similar to daylight, which can make our bodies think it’s daytime, at any time. To fall asleep when you want (and need) to, power down all electronics two hours before bedtime. Better yet, keep your phone and laptop in another room while you slumber.
The health risks of cell phones are murky

There’s been no research that proves cell phone use causes cancer; in fact, the links to any kind of health risk aren’t yet clear. In general, cell phones are said to give off such small doses of electromagnetic radiation—which is also emitted from X-rays and microwaves and can lead to tumor growth in high amounts—that they’re perfectly safe to handle.

Still, the World Health Organization warned in 2011 that usage may be possibly carcinogenic to humans, especially in children, whose scalps and skulls are thinner than adults’, and more vulnerable to radiation. So if you’re at all worried about the possible cancer risk, try to text instead of call, hold the phone away from your ear, or use an earpiece or the speakerphone setting as much as possible—and definitely don’t sleep with the phone next to your head.www.martnewsreports.com

Hmmm, mamas, if everyone open mouth to talk her own when, this thread go reach 5000 pages but all in all God is so aware of the situation and I would humbly imploy every mama here to let go and let God. Let go of all the hurtful words, let go of all the pitying situation and just hold on to the giver of hope. Some married as virgins but are ttcing and so were retired prostitutes but preggy entered one time, who am I to judge, its God's gift and he gives it at his will. Please let's try to overcome the spirit of self righteousness and watch God act. He is still in the business of creating and molding custom made children. God bless you and cheers.

pls what drug can an elderly woman use or physical exercise for back pain. not old person oo

thorpido:
I don't see anything strange happening to you.You are just making bad decisions based on the fact that you do not think through before taking actions.In life you go step by step and not just rush into things.
From the things you wrote,you go contrary to good advise from your family and that has been your greatest undoing.In as much as there is nothing wrong taking decisions on your own,you can also make do with good counsel.Begin to listen to you family and good friends whenever you decide to make decisions.Seek their opinions even if you won't follow their opinions,consider and weigh them.
As per your health,sicknesses can come at anytime to anyone.You just need to learn to prevent diseases by maintaining good hygiene and presenting yourself early at a hospital if you have symptoms of any illness.
When it comes to women,if a man does not date the right woman,it can be akin to pouring water into a basket.You need to use your head more than your heart when it comes to women.
Wish you well.

@Dazzle86, I can't tell cos I've never tried it, I suggest you do hsg to ascertain the state of your tubes before inducing with Clomid and also do tvs to confirm the state of your ovaries as well and moreover, hope the Clomid is your doctor's prescription?

@mamateniola, all brands of soy work just like Clomid, take 100-150 gm and see how your body will respond
