Signs of breast cancer explained, using lemons

We think we know what the signs of breast cancer are, until it comes to checking our own breasts - then we're not so sure.

Is that a lump I can feel? Should I be worried about the dimpled skin there? What exactly am I feeling for?

Those were the concerns of Corrine Beaumont, a young designer, who created the 'Know Your Lemons' campaign, which has been shared more than 32,000 times on Facebook in the past few days.

She lost both her grandmothers to breast cancer at the ages of 40 and 62 and when she found very little information on the signs of breast cancer to look out for, she felt compelled to come up with a solution.

Lemons became her stand-in metaphor for breasts as she tried to create a simple, visual way of showing what breast cancer symptoms can look and feel like.

Corrine describes the egg box of lemons as a playful, friendly image which might help women overcome their fear of the disease.

"Some patients don't want to talk about breasts or look at them," she says.

"Often women used in campaigns don't look like ordinary women - but even those with little literacy can understand this."

The campaign has been used to educate people in the US, Spain, Turkey and Lebanon - and translated into 16 different languages.

Two years ago Corrine left her job to start her own charity, Worldwide Breast Cancer.

'Real information'

Although 'Know Your Lemons' has been going since 2003, this year's zesty campaign image has struck a chord, after it was shared on social media by Erin Smith Chieze.

She was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer after recognising she had an indentation in her breast, all thanks to a similar image detailing what breast cancer could look like.

"Without having seen a picture randomly with real information, I wouldn't have known what to look for," Erin posted.

Many say 'Know Your Lemons' is clear and colourful - and gets an important message across that is often lost in a mass of words.

And they have a point.

A recent survey of 1,000 women by charity Breast Cancer Care found that a third of women don't check their breast regularly for signs and symptoms of cancer.

While 96% know that a lump in the breast can be a symptom of cancer, more than a quarter did not know that an inverted nipple can be a symptom.

A lump or an area of thickened tissue in their breast is the most common symptom of breast cancer which women notice, NHS Choices says.

In 9 out of 10 cases these lumps are not cancer, but it's always a good idea to visit your GP to check.

Other common symptoms to look out for are dimpling of the skin, indentations in the breast and a change in the position of the nipple.

Lemon-aid

Prof Jayant Vaidya, professor of surgery and oncology at University College London, says indentation or flattening of the breast, particularly when the arm is lifted or when women lean forward, is an important early sign.

"Apart from bloody or single duct discharge from the nipple, it is the main visible early sign."

But he says that growing veins and inflamed breasts are rare symptoms, and skin erosion, orange peel skin and large bumps are signs of advanced disease.

"Showing lemons in an egg box seems to draw interest and attention to the issue and people may remember the signs better.

"But women will usually find the new 'invisible' lump in their breasts; it is the most common and frequently the only symptom."

In the UK, awareness is already at a pretty high level, so delay is more likely due to fear or denial, he says.

"Modern targeted treatments have a high chance of success and are aimed at reducing the harms of over-treatment," Prof Vaidya adds.

What is important, breast cancer charities say, is being aware of how your own breasts feel normally and then looking out for any unusual changes.

A change in size or shape, a lump or thickening anywhere in the breast should be taken seriously.

Routine checking

However, Jane Murphy, clinical nurse specialist at Breast Cancer Care, says she doesn't want people to become paranoid about breast cancer.

"It's about everyone becoming familiar with their own body and knowing what your own breast look like.

"You can introduce self-checking as part of a routine, when you're putting on creams and lotions, for example."

Cancer Research UK points out that spotting a sign doesn't necessarily mean cancer.

"Inverted nipples, fluid leaking from a nipple or a rash can all be due to other medical conditions.

"But if you have any changes to what is normal for you, you should see your GP.

"Seeing your doctor early also means that if it does turn out to be cancer, you give yourself the best chance of successful treatment."

Habits That Cause Nerve Disorders

Neuropathy is nerve damage caused by decreased nerve function. Neuropathy is common for those aged over 40 years. Neural Data Specialist Doctors Association of Indonesia (Perdossi) in 2012, said about 26 percent or 1 in 4 people aged 40 years and over had neuropathy.

According to the Chairman of the Study Group on Neurophysiology and Neuroscience Center Bank Perdossi dr. Manfaluthy judge said, neuropathy usually occurs initially in the legs. This is because the foot has a long nerve size.

"Niagara nerve foot in the waist, compared to the hand that is in the neck. Then legs are usually more prone to neurological disorders," said the doctor to call Luthy this in a media briefing entitled 'Vitamin neurotropic Prevent Early Neuropathy' Wednesday (3 / 4/2013) in Jakarta.

Neuropathy have symptoms such as numbness or numbness, burning, numbness, cramps, muscle stiffness, numbness, loss of bladder control, hypersensitive skin, shiny skin and hair loss in a particular area, limb weakness and muscle wasting.

According to Luthy, neuropathy was also caused by a trauma or pinched nerve. Trauma caused by some habit, which is usually done in a long time and repeatedly. What are the activities that lead to neuropathy?

1. Typing on the keyboard with the wrong position.

Typing the wrong position will cause trauma to the hands or commonly referred to as carpal tunnel syndrome. If it continues and no action is taken, it will be a neuropathy.

2. Too much squat.

Squatting will hit a lot of nerves in the foot. If it's too long do will usually cause numbness or tingling. It can also lead to neuropathy.

3. Too much sitting cross-legged.

Almost the same as squatting, sitting cross-legged too many nerves in the feet pressing the trigger neuropathy.

4. Sat cross-legged.

Cross your legs when sitting may look beautiful, but its effects will cause tingling. Then you should frequently change the sitting position.

In addition, other positions are pressing their hands and feet too long and often also lead to neuropathy. But if the habit is not going to be stopped or reduced to cause neuropathy.

"Habits can lead to neuropathy, but usually only results in impaired nerve function and can be cured because it is reversible," said Luthy.

Four Causes of DBD

The number of cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) continues to increase every year. Data in 2010 showed that Indonesia ranks highest dengue cases in ASEAN. According to the Directorate General of Disease Control Sourced Animals (P2B2), the number of dengue cases in Indonesia in 2010 there were 150,000 cases (Reuters 2/19/2011). In 2013, East Java has even recorded an extraordinary occurrence (KLB) disease in 3-4 districts of the city.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever caused by a virus that is transmitted through mosquito Aedes aegypti as the main vector. In addition, there is mosquito vector Aedes albopictus as secondary. This disease usually reaches peak at the end of the rainy season or early dry season. Generally, in March or December. Until now, there is no cure or vaccine for the disease. Dengue Prevention now only done by avoiding mosquito that spreads the disease, such as cleaning up the environment and fumigation.

Specialist in diseases of the General Hospital Center (Dr) Fatmawati Jakarta, dr.Gustan Syahri. Sp.PD said, there are four types (serotypes) of different viruses that cause dengue fever is dengue virus-1 (DEN-1), DEN-2, DEN-3, and DEN-4. Serotype DEN-3 known to be the most virulent type of attack. But until now, no research results serulogi, to decide the impact of attacks and special features DEN-3.

"The worst is DEN-3, but if the human antibodies against DEN-3 was formed, he will hold," said Gustan.

Dengue disease is very dangerous. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2012 more than 2.5 billion people at risk of dengue virus infection. In addition, there are about 50 million people infected with dengue virus every year.

The number of DHF country also continues to grow. In 2007, there were 68 countries had reported cases of dengue. This figure is an increase compared to 1999, only 29 countries. Currently, more than 100 countries in Africa, the Americas, Eastern Mediterranean, South-East Asia and Western Pacific seriously affected by dengue.

Hypertension, Early Symptoms of Kidney Failure in Children

High blood pressure or hypertension can be an early sign of kidney disease in children. High blood pressure in childhood is not something normal that one should be wary as early signs of kidney malfunction.

According kidney and hypertension consultants from Faculty of medicine / RSCM Prof.Dr.dr. Endang Susalit Sp.PD-KGH, unlike kidney filters. Its job is to filter waste and throw it through urine. Inability of the kidneys in performing its functions can be serious implications. If the damage is severe, it can lead to other diseases in which one marker is increased blood pressure.

"Damaged kidneys are not able to do his duties as a filter," said Endang.

He stated, kidney damage is said to have reached the stage when entered in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). At this stage of ESRD, waste able to get out of the kidney. This waste is then inhibited the rate of blood in the blood vessels. Inhibition of the rate of blood causing various diseases, one of which is hypertension.

Renal Consultants of RSCM Prof.Dr.Talaran children Tambunan Sp.A (K) explains, hypertension in children are different from adults. A variety of unusual circumstances in the child's potential to increase blood pressure.

Condition that causes hypertension in children also often have no known cause (idiopathic). Whereas in adults, hypertension due to diet, work, and irregular breaks.

Blood and urine examination must be done regularly in children with hypertension to check the possibility of kidney failure. Including urine tests are intended to check the content of creatinine and potassium.

According Talaran, protein in the urine examination will decide the type of diet, which will help the kidneys work. If found high amounts of creatinine, the child will be on a diet to regulate protein intake. While if found potassium, then the child will undergo a diet that regulates the intake of green vegetables.

Cliff Mambu Ezekiel (13), children with kidney failure from Gorontalo also showed symptoms of hypertension before finally recovering after undergoing successful kidney transplant in the RSCM.
"Her blood pressure could reach 210/135, but not as high as it should be," said Serli Katili, Cliff's mother.

Cliff successful kidney transplant surgery at General Hospital National Center Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo (RSCM), Jakarta, on March 13 last. He was diagnosed with kidney failure in 2010 and has grown to stage five.

Serli said, when the kidneys are recurrent son looked limp. Cliff also complained of dizziness, nausea and want to vomit. When this happens, quickly brought his son Serli treatment or dialysis.

Antibiotics is Not Effective to Prevent Flu

When the body condition was starting to feel bad, many people who take reasonable precautions to take antibiotics to prevent flu. In fact, most of the antibiotics prescribed to prevent the flu or a virus ineffective.

In study results published in the journal Annals of Family Medicine stated, antibiotics have little effect in preventing the flu.

The study was conducted by analyzing the medical records of more than 814,283 patients suffering from flu, laryngitis, bronchitis, as well as other viruses (ISPA).

Although antibiotics are designed to treat bacterial infections and are not effective for respiratory infections, but 65 percent of patients said that a prescription of antibiotics to prevent infection with the virus develop into a more serious illness, such as pneumonia.

In fact, the fear of the increased severity of the disease was not proven. In fact a lot of patients who complain of side effects of antibiotic consumption.

According to the study, apparently of patients receiving antibiotics for prevention, only 1 out of 12,255 patients who successfully prevented her pneumonia.

"The more antibiotic taken, the faster bacteria around us were so resistant. This means that in the future if we are sick, it is likely that the disease will not be cured by antibiotics," said Sharon Meropol, assistant professor of epidemiology at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine are conducting this research.

Even so, we do not need enemies antibiotics. In a disease caused by a bacterial infection, antibiotics will speed up the healing process.

"If your doctor recommends antibiotics as a preventive flu, you should ask why and whether it is necessary," said Robert Klein, head of the infectious diseases division of St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals.

If the reason for taking strong antibiotics, make sure you follow the correct medication instructions to maximize the effectiveness of the drug. Your health depends on it.

Low Calorie Diet Make Your Body More Vulnerable to Flu

Do not just select a diet method to lose weight, especially in the rainy season like this where the flu virus more easily spread. Excessive low-calorie diet can make you more susceptible to the flu.

The rainy season is always associated with outbreaks of flu virus is characterized by cough, runny nose, fever and muscle aches. According to a recent study conducted at Michigan State University, the flu virus is known to be easier to attack people with low calories.

The study was conducted in 2008, led by a professor of Food Science and Human Nutrition, Elizabeth Gardner, PhD. Gardner and colleagues found that rats on a diet that restricts calories more susceptible to influenza viruses and have more severe symptoms than the normal mice on a diet.

Although studies using mice as its object, but may also apply to humans.

"Initially we designed a study to determine whether diet by limiting calorie intake may help boost the immune system, but it turns out the research indicates otherwise," Gardner said, as reported by health, Thursday (01/10/2013).

The authors state that the intake of calories during flu season can actually ward off the virus or at least can ease symptoms and speed recovery. The low caloric intake causes a person does not have the antibodies to fight infection.

"Mice with fat reserves have a source of energy to help fight infection, but low-calorie diet cause the mice began to use fat as a source other than muscle and heart tissue to fight infection, but it can weaken the body's defenses," said Gardner.

So as to ensure that the body is not susceptible to the flu virus, note the proper way to diet. Do not go on a diet to restrict calories, but balancing calorie food as needed and not excessive.

The body still needs the nutrients from foods including calories, so do not omit menu calorie foods such as grains, tubers, rice, or avocado in your diet. These foods can help the body build up defenses against the flu virus.

First Aid for Poisoning Victims

Food poisoning is very apt to occur if not careful in storing or cooking food. In addition, materials such as household cleaners or detergents also contain chemicals that are harmful if swallowed. The victim of poisoning needs to be addressed immediately.

Immediately call the paramedics or take the victim to the nearest hospital. Include all the information about the age, type of poison ingested, how much poison is ingested, when the event occurs, the victim suffered vomiting or not and how long it take to bring the victim to the hospital.

Emergency treatment can be given to victims of poisoning include:

1. Reduce levels of toxins that remain in the stomach by giving the victim to drink water or milk as soon as possible. Do not give juice or vinegar to neutralize the poison.

2. Try to remove toxins by stimulating vomiting.

3. Keep the victim to vomit with her face down with the head lower than the body down, so that victims do not choke.

4. Take the victim immediately to the nearest hospital emergency room.

5. Do not give drinks or trying to regurgitate the contents of the victim's stomach when he was in a stupor. Do not try to vomit it up if you do not know what poison is swallowed.

6. Do not try to regurgitate the victim when ingesting materials is like toilet cleaner, stainless liquid, bleach, washing powder, gasoline, kerosene, paint thinner and lighter fluid.

Acid will cause more damage to the stomach or esophagus if vomited. While petroleum products that can be spewed into the lungs and cause pneumonia. The proper First Aid for Poisoning Victims can minimize the danger safe the victim's life.

First Aid on Alcohol Overdose

Ethanol is an active toxic contained in all alcoholic beverages. Ethanol can weaken and suppress the activity of the nerve central system (brain and spinal cord), which controls the psychomotoric skills such as body coordination and reaction gestures.

Another effect is disturbing body activities such as speaking limbs, reduced hearing and reduced the eye movements. Alcohol can also reduce the level of awareness and self-control behavior.Consuming alcohol will lead to a false sense of excitement. Alcohol may act like a stimulant but in fact alcohol is the cause of depression (depressant).

According to Stanley M. Zildo as quoted from his book 'First Aid, How to Properly Handling First Aid and Emergency', alcohol overdose symptoms such as reduced body coordination, slurred speech, abnormal breathing, tend not aware, there is the possibility of red eyes and coma.

If you encounter any of these symptoms, immediately do these following steps:

1. If the victim was asleep with his pulse and his respiration were normal, wake up him with shaking his body or call his name. In this case, the victim did not require an emergency treatment.

2. Place the victim in a safe place so he will not injure hinself then continue to monitor his condition.

3. If the victim is unconscious or can not be awakened and his breath looks abnormal or victim in a coma, try to keep his respiratory pathway smooth.

Can There Be a Happy Ending After Borderline Type 2 Diabetes Diagnosis?

If you receive this diagnosing, don't despair, there's lightweight at the tip of the tunnel. With a deliberate change to your life style, the onset of sort a pair of polygenic disease could also be slowed or stopped. Sadly, sort a pair of polygenic disease is escalating throughout the globe. The health profession have declared it a 'lifestyle disease', as a result of the bulk of people in danger square measure overweight, middle-aged adults United Nations agency relish an inactive life style. My husband was borderline diabetic, and thru a determined effort to vary not solely his attitude, however take part in regular physical activity, he turned his life around. Weight loss and regular exercise has confirmed that he's now not during this borderline class. Yes, there will be a cheerful ending, however it takes laborious work!

My husband's success in reversing his sort 2 polygenic disease diagnosing was due in massive live to a tiny low book written by Dr. Sandra Cabot "Diabetes sort a pair of you'll reverse it naturally" WHAS Pty Ltd 2007. The author's insight and direct recommendation tried itself and has fashioned the premise of his recovery.

Two hundred and cardinal million folks worldwide, fall victim to the current illness. it's expected that the amount of people living with polygenic disease can reach 300 and eighty million within the next twenty years, if current trends square measure something to travel by. The complications from this illness square measure troubling, as patients will develop visual impairment, might need to have amputations, and suffer from impotency, strokes, failure and heart attacks. heart condition may be an issue conducive to deaths in four out of 5 polygenic disease sufferers. These square measure appalling statistics, and heavy enough to steer and inspire borderline sort a pair of sufferers, to create some radical changes to their life style. this is often precisely what my husband did.

I adopted same changes as even supposing i used to be not within the same class, I needed to encourage a healthier means of life for my husband, as I knew it might take self-will and motivation. Firstly, we tend to started reading all food labels with a payback once food market looking, and avoided any foods with high macromolecule contents. we tend to additionally wanted out low Glycaemic Index foods when doable. The Glycaemic index (GI) measures however quickly your glucose rises when intense a specific food. The high GI foods digest apace, that successively causes a speedy rise in glucose and hypoglycaemic agent levels. However, low GI foods work a lot of effectively within the body as a result of they're a lot of slowly digestible and the rise in glucose is way slower than the high GI foods. Analysing all food labelling was a decent thanks to avoid intake not solely foods that were finished however additionally helped to stabilise glucose levels. A high GI rating is taken into account to be over seventy, a moderate GI rating is between fifty-six and seventy, while any food but a fifty-five GI rating is taken into account low GI.

To make this work and to with success diminish a sort a pair of borderline diagnosing, the patient has to change state by reducing the diet's total macromolecule content. The golden rule was to own a quantitative relation of 1 quarter macromolecule, one-quarter macromolecule and the remaining 1/2 your plate speech act a spread of vegetables. we've abided by this method over the last 3 years, and it's worked. Of course, once the burden loss has become clear, tiny treats square measure allowable. I don't advocate abstinence from sure high GI foods, however good judgment and motivation can dictate to you that moderation is that the key for fulfillment , in helping to {control} glucose levels and support weight control.

The importance of exercise can't be underestimated. Physical activity not solely lowers pressure level, and lowers triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein 'bad' sterol and improves HDL 'good cholesterol', however it prevents heart condition and lowers peaks in glucose that continually occur when each meal. this is often why it's dominant to interact in regular, physical activity on a day after day. There square measure such a large amount of different advantages to exercise, namely, promoting higher sleep, interference of depression, augmented energy levels and a boosted system to fight down potential infections.

However, motivation and a determination to succeed square measure the key points for dynamical any life style, particularly if over the years the burden has crept on as a result of a a lot of inactive life style. it's a matter of fixing the mental attitude. it's hard initially, however with a conjunct effort and additionally the support from a partner or friend, it will be achieved. Previous dangerous habits square measure precisely that, bad habits, and that they will be modified. There could also be a mistake up from time to time, we tend to square measure in the end human, and that we all create mistakes. Show resilience and come to your healthier, chosen routines of intake a lot of nutritionally and moving that body!

By understanding this illness and taking positive steps to counteract the long run effects, you'll be staving off high glucose, thereby permitting your duct gland to adequately manufacture the internal secretion hypoglycaemic agent, essential for sanctioning aldohexose to enter cells. this is often wherever our energy comes from. once the body is in AN unhealthy state, fatigue is one in every of the various symptoms. polygenic disease sufferers manufacture light hypoglycaemic agent leading to a build of excess aldohexose within the blood. By adopting healthy exercise routines, by intake low GI foods, a lot of unprocessed food, and frequently exertion, a borderline sort a pair of polygenic disease diagnosing will be reversed; it simply takes self-will, motivation and the resolution to amass a healthier body, once again!

At bedtime, reflux may trigger airway constriction and thus prone to sleep apnea stop breathing during sleep. Although not directly lead to stroke, various studies have shown that sleep apnea is associated with the risk of damage to blood vessels in the brain that trigger a stroke.

The results presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress 2011 will involve at least 1,000 Britons. A total of 500 people from the healthy participants, 250 people had a stroke and the remaining 250 people experiencing acute coronary heart syndrome.

Meanwhile, a cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic, David Holmes, MD, agrees that go straight to bed after dinner can increase the risk of stroke. But for sure, need further research with larger sample size.

"When we eat, blood sugar levels change, cholesterol changes and blood flow changes as well. All of that affects the risk of stroke," said Dr. Holmes who was not involved in the study.
