ASTHMA

1 Comment

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder associated with airway hyper-responsiveness of tracheobronchial tree to various stimuli and manifested by acute, recurrent or chronic attacks of bronchial narrowing, variable in severity and usually of brief duration.

The episodes are usually associated with widespread but variable airflow obstruction within the lung that is often reversible.

It is believed that airway reactivity is major feature of asthma and this is induced by inflammation and that inflammmation is basic abnormality present in asthma.

PATHOGENESIS OF ASTHMA

The narrowing of the airways in asthma is due to inflammation of the lining mucosa and contraction of bronchial smooth muscle.

The common denominator underlying the asthmatic diathesis is non specific hyper irritability of tracheobronchial tree.

This phenomenon is cardinal feature of asthma and is thought to be primary pathogenic event in the disease.

The pathological, physiological and clinical manifestations of asthma have their origin in complex interaction of environmental stimuli with locally resident cells including the epithelial lining and those migrating from the blood stream.

The interaction involves several mediators and cytokines that amplify the response and perpetuate it tp maintain continous disease activity.

PREDISPOSING FACTORS OR TRIGGERS FOR ASTHMA

Asthma exacerbations can be triggered by variious factors. Most of the patients have more than one precipitating factors and various triggers can cause exacerbations at different times.

ALLERGENS

Allergic asthma is dependant upon an IgE response controlled by T and B lymphocytes and activated by interaction of antigen with mast cell bound IgE molecules. Most of the allergens that provoke asthma are air borne. In allergic asthma, sensitisation to allergens occur when the macrophages and dendritic cells process the inhaled allergens and present it to T lymphocytes.
Allergic asthama is frequently seasonal and it is most often observed in children and young adults. A non seasonal form may result from allergy to various allergens in the environment.

Infections

Respiratory infections are most common of the stimuli that evoke acute exacerbations of asthma. Respiratory viruses are the major etiologic factor. In young children, the most important infectious agents are respiratory virus and parainfluenza virus. In adults and older children, rhino virus and influenza virus predominate.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION

Environmental causes of asthma are usually related to climatic conditions that promote the concentration of atmospheric pollutants and antigens. These conditions develop in densely populated urban areas.

OCCUPATIONAL FACTOR

Occupation related asthma is a significant health problem, acute and chronic airway obstruction has been reported to follow exposure to large number of compounds used in many types of industrial processes. Exposure to metal salts, industrial chemicals, biologic enzymes, various gases oxides of nitrogen,sulphur etc trigger asthma.

EMOTIONAL STRESS

Psychological factor can interact with the asthamatic diathesis to worsen the disease process. The extent to which the psychologic factor plays a role in acute exacerbation is unknown but probably varies from patient to patient.

EXERCISE

Asthma can be made worse by physical exertion. Provocation of bronchospasm by excercise is probably operative to some extent on every asthmatic patient and in some it may be only trigger mechanism that will produce symptoms.

SYMPTOMATIC PRESENTATION OF ASTHMA.

The cardinal symptoms of asthma consists of a triad of dyspnoea, cough and wheezing.
In its most typical form asthma is an episodic disease and all three symptoms co-exist.
It is seen that the attacks often occur at night, may be due to fluctuations in airway receptor thresholds that may result from circadian variations in the circulating levels of endogenous catecholamines and histamine.
Attacks may also abruptly follow exposure to a specific allergen, physical exertion, a viral respiratory infection or emotional excitement.

At the onset patient experiences a sense of constriction in chest, often with a non productive cough.
In practice we see that the frequency and severity of symptoms and exacerbations varies from patient to patient.
It is seen that the respiration becomes audibly harsh and wheezing in both phases of respiration becomes prominent, expiration usually becomes prolonged and patient presents with tachypnoea, tachycardia and mild systolic hypertension.
If the attack is severe or prolonged, the accesory muscles become visibly active and frequently a paradoxical pulse will develop. These two signs are valuable in indicating the severity of obstruction.
Termination of the episode is frequently marked by a cough producing thick stringy mucus which often takes the form of casts of the distal airways and when examined microscopically eosinophils and charcot leyden crystals are seen.
In extreme situations, wheezing may markedly lessen or even disappear completely, as exhaustion sets in the level of conciousness may decline and chest may be silent which is an omnious sign of impending respiratory arrest.

A BRIEF NOTE ON ASTHMATIC ATTACK.

Premonitory symptoms

Patient presents with Asthmatic aura, sometimes sneezing, dry irritant cough, irritability, restlessness may precede or accompany attacks of wheezing breathlessness.

Paroxysms

Paroxysms usually occurs middle of night with sense of oppression in chest, leading to respiratory distress. Patient sits up and leans forward fighting for breath or rushes for fresh air to relieve sense of suffocation.
Asoociated with anxiety, cyanosis, perspiration and cold extremities.
Wheezing is loud and audible from a distance.
On auscultation inspiration is short and high pitched, expiration is prolonged with ronchi.
Rales may be heard at the base towards end of attack. In severe airway obstruction airflow may be so reduced that the chest is almost silent.

Termination

Termination occurs spontaneously. As bronchial spasm gets less, the patient is able to cough and bring out viscid mucofibrin expectoration.

Duration of Attack

Varies from few minutes to several hours. Sometimes the paroxysms are continous leading to status asthamaticus.

HOMOEOPATHIC MEDICINES FOR ASTHMA WITH INDICATIONS

Arsenicum Album

Its the first and foremost drug that comes to my mind when it comes to respiratory allergies and asthma. Since centuries Arsenic is being used by mountaineers and people living on high altitude to combat complaints of dyspnoea due to low pressure and oxygen. Recent toxicological study in real world chornic exposure to Arsenic contaminated ground water from wells and other sources  in West Bengal Chile Argentina shows that non malignant respiratory effect of arsenic is more pronounced in persons already having skin lesions; which shows that there is more susceptibility of person with skin lesions towards arsenic compared to others. So if we apply it homoeopthically in treating patients with atopic dermatitis with respiratory allergies and asthma then it will yield good results. the organism as a whole shows following keynote signs that calls for arsenicum album; Night aggravation ; aggravation on lying down especially on back; after drinking; burning relieved by heat ; very sensitive to cold; very restless keeps changing position and sensitive to touch and external impressions ; great thirst  desire for small quantity of cold water in short interval of time. dry cough aggravates after midnight with scanty frothy cough with constrictive suffocation breathlessness with wheezing aggravates at midnight with darting pain in upperlobe of rt lung (indicated in Primary tuberculosis Gohn’s Focus) causing heamoptysis accompanying with burning pain between shoulder blades.

Blatta Orientalis

This medicines was first proven accidentally and has an interesting story so thought to share it with you all, once upon a time back in 18th century there was an old man who used to stay alone and was suffering from asthma since many years, he used to get many asthmatic attack throughout the day, one morning he was having severe asthmatic attack and he boiled the tea and consumed it after which his asthma got relieved to great extent after drinking a cup of tea prepared by him, it was the same tea that he used to drink on daily basis, so what was so different that day that his asthma got relieved so much?? Last night he was suffering very bad episodes of breathlessness which kept him awake that night so at night he had prepared black tea for himself after which he slept and next morning boiled the same tea again that had been prepared last night and consumed again . But again what a great difference can it make to boil the same old tea again and how can it produce medicinal properties so great so that it can relieve asthma, and if it was so easy then how did not others find this curative property of that tea till date, On emptying the tea pot he had seen a dead cockroach at the bottom of the tea pot that day , he was wise enough to recollect it after few days that he had seen a cockroach in the tea pot, and attributed the reason behind the cure to the cockroach, then he started consuming that tea boiled along with the same Indian cockroach  water whenever he got the asthmatic attack, and after few days he found that it not only gave relief in acute exacerbation of asthma but also reduced the frequency and intensity of episodes. he the started giving the same to other asthma sufferers around him for free then gradually people from far off started to flock around him for the medicine and soon he was famous, he then used to prepare in large quantity and add alcohol to preserve it for longer period, gradually after it came to notice to homoeopaths that the same indian cockroack if given to healthy humans in very large quantity then it used to produce asthma in that subject , soon they realised that the cure of asthma with Blatta Orientalis was based on homoeopathic principle of “similia similibus curentur” so they incorporated it into Homoeopathic Materia Medica. IT has peculiar asthmatic symptoms Heaviness of chest as if some weight was put on chest pt feels that he is breathing in the air only till trachea and not till lungs ; short fast breaths feels lungs are not expanding completely; sensation as if shoulders were dragged downwards towards feet. general sensation of heat in whole body.

LEUCORRHOEA

1 Comment

Leucorrhoea is an abnormal vaginal discharge, its a very common complaint of women seen in our practice.

The discharge may range from what is called excess of normal to one which is a part of wide spectrum of ailments.

LET US SEE WHAT EXACTLY LEUCORHHOEA IS

Leucorrhoea is an excessive vaginal discharge of whitish or yellowish which is thick and sticky.

Women experiencing from the excesssive vaginal discharge are worried and embarrassed about thier condtion and hesitate even to share this issue with their doctor.

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF LEUCORRHOEA

Normal vaginal secretion

The physiologic basis involved in normal vaginal secretion is dependant on tbe oestrogen level. With the rising oestrogen level, there is abundant secretory activity of endocervical glands and the superficial vaginal epithelium becomes rich in glycoprotein.

The mucoid secretion from cervical glands is normally small in amount. The carbohydrate radicle of the glycoprotein mucin is spilt off and fermented into lactic acid. Thus the mucus is secreted in excess and is passed out at the vulva.

Usually normal vaginal secretion is slimy and sticky and quantity is less.

Normally it may be a little excess in mid menstrual period during ovulation or just prior to menstruation., during pregnancy and during sexual excitement.

The secretion is mainly derived fro the glands of cervix , uterus, tansudation of vaginal epithelium and bartholins glands (during sexual excitement)

The Excess Vaginal secretion is due to

• Physiologic cause
•Cervical cause
• Vaginal cause

Physiological cause

The normal secretion is expected to increase in conditions when the oestrogen levels become high. Such conditions are.

•During puberty

Increased levels of endogenous oestrogen level leads to marked overgrowth of endocervical epithelium epithelium which may enroach onto the ectocervix producing erosion leadin to excess secretion.

•During menstrual cycle

Around ovulation peak rise of oestrogen leads to increase in the secretory activity of the cervical glands.
Excess secretion occurs In premenstrual pelvic congestion and increased mucus secretion from the hypertrophied endometrial glands.

•Pregnancy

Due to increased level of oestrogen causes increased vascularity. This leads to increased vaginal transudate and cervical gland secretion.

• During sexual excitement

Occurs when there is abundant secretion from bartholins glands.

CERVICAL CAUSE

Non infective cervical lesion may produce excessive secretion. Such lesions are cervical ectopy, chronic cervicitis, mucous poylp.

VAGINAL CAUSE

Increased vaginal transudation occurs in conditions associated with increased pelvic congestion. The conditions are uterine prolapse, acquired retroverted uterus, chronic pelvic inflammation, use of contraceptive pills or devices.

What are the probable causes of LEUCORRHOEA?

It is usually seen that the mucus membrane and glands of our body produce normal secretions, these secretions protect our body by forming a slimy lining over skin or mucus membrane.
Similarly vaginal glands secrete some secretions to keep the organs moist or lubricated and hence help our body to prevent from infections due to its acidic nature of secretions.
Leucorrhoea usually is not an acute condition, it does not develop all of a sudden. It usually denotes a devitalised state. It involves one or more parts of the reproductive organs.
When our body is loaded with toxins due to various causes organs such as skin, kidneys, ailmentary tract etc are not able to flush out the toxins. As a defense mechanism our body produces profuse discharge and eliminates in one or the other form of mucus membrane of uterus or vagina in the form of leucorrhoea.

Most common causes of leucorrhoea are as follows:

Infections

•Fungal infections

Candida albicans can easily flourish in most of cases and is usually caused due to poor hygiene. It gives rise to thick whitish or lumpy discharge accompanied by intense itching in the genital region.

•Parasitic infection

Trichomonas vaginalis is most common cause of leuchorroea. It affects the lining of both vagina and cervix causing infection.

•Bacterial infection

Bacterial infections are caused by chalmydia and gardnerella vaginalis. They cause sexually tranmitted diseases such as syphilis, gonorhoea HIV etc leading to abnormal vaginal discharge.
And other infections like Urinary tract infections, Pelvic inflamatory disease are also one of the cause
Of leuchorroea

•Hormonal Imbalance

Due to increased level of oestrogen it leads to increased vascularity causing increased vaginal transudate and cervical gland secretion leuchorroea.

•Poor hygeine

Unhygenic conditions cand lead to abnormal vaginal discharge especially during menstruation, unprotected sexual intercourse or excessive sexual indulgence etc.

•Injury

Any injury to the vagina or cervix or tissues during delivert can cause erosion and infections leading to abnormal vaginal discharges.

•Contraceptive Devices

Use of contraceptive devices have high risk of causing infections and irritations leading to leuchorroea.

•Malnutrition

Lack of nutrition, Anaemia, Weakened Immune System causes Leucorrhoea.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF LEUCHORROEA?

Usually a female patient with leucorrhoea presents with the following symptoms

  • The most important symptom of leuchorroea is thick or thin whitish sticky vaginal discharge.
  • If the leuchorroea is caused due to an infection, the discharge is yellowish or greenish in colour and has a very foul smell.
  • The patient with leuchorrea usually presents with excessive itching, soreness and swelling of oedema.
  • Presence of white discharge is noticed on the undergarments.
  • Pain in the low back, abdomen, calf and thigh muscles is also one of the important characteristic symptom of leuchorroea.
  • Burning in the genital tract, with burning urination and frequent urge to urinate.
  • Patient presents with Weakness, lethargy due to profuse discharge.
  • Painful sexual activity may be due to intense burning and soreness of the genital tract.

SOME USEFUL MEASURES TO MANAGE LEUCHORRHOEA

Usually we see in our practice when a female suffers from leuchorroea for a long time has generally very weak constitution.

Let us put light upon some useful measure which will help us to combat leuchorroea.

  • Maintain proper hygeine of genital parts, cleaning the vulva after every act of urination,and sexual activity. Also hygeine should be equally maintained during menstrual periods.
  • Use of cotton undergarments to prevent sweat from being retained in the genital tract, which may become a medium for infections leading to leuchorroea.
  • Excessive douching of vaginal area should be avoided to maintain normal vaginal flora and balance the ph.
  • Stay hydrated, drink atleast 2 to 3 litres of water to flush out toxins from your body.
  • Maintain proper diet., include fresh fruits and vegetables in the diet., healthy herbs,spices, carbs, protien etc.

HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT OF LEUCORRHOEA

While treating with homoeopathy its of utmost importance to understand the patient first and then her disease.

In homoeopathy we believe that the seat of the disease is on deranged vital force and functioning of normal human body and every individual has a different genome and so altogether a different constitution and each will responds in different manner to external environmental and social stimulus and insults on the organism as a whole.

Each has been subjected to different external inimical influences in different ways so each one has different peculiar differentiating trait and character, which has been embeded in gene through ages and generations to shape up a particular constitution and personality.

So its very important to find peculiar PQRS of each case, as each will respond differently to the same administered medicine, also requirement of the case varies due to vast difference in each constitution personailty and in homoeopathy we have the previlige to select individualised medicine or call it remedy.

So in my following article I have tried to throw some light also on the constitution, that is physical mental and miasmatic background, of each remedy type, this will  helps reader understand which type of constitution personality will respond better to which remedy or to put it in other words which remedy works better in which type of constitution and personality trait

Now its not always necessary that all the symptoms of medicines should match the patient’s symptom completely  but it is important that most of the major symptoms of disease that are concerning the patient most and the constitutional background should match at large if not exactly with the medinical grading of symptoms and the peculiars helps us to distinguish between finalising between two similar matching remedies.

PCOS is characterised by

  1. Oligovulation /anovulation and or polycystic ovary.
  2. Hyperandrogenism
  3. Exclusion of all other causative factors of hyperandrogenism.

Sign and Symptoms of PCOS

  • Polycystic ovaries, strings of follicles peripherally located in ovaries detected by USG.
  • Oligovulation or Anovulation
  • Various types of Menstrual disorders but mostly Oligomenorrhoea less than 9/annum or Amenorrhoea.
  • Hyperandrogenism, excessive androgens , especially ovarian testosterone
  • Reduced sensitivity to insulin
  • Hirsuitism excessive hair growth in females especially on beard upperlips abdomen chest and back
  • Central obesity
  • Eevated Homocystien levels
  • Acne on face neck back and upper chest
  • Infertility
  • Dark velvety thickening of skin especially on neck and other extensor surfaces.

Pathogenesis of PCOS

It is caused due to increase in ovarian androgens especially testosterone due to one or more of the following reasons with combination of genetic factors.

Insulin resistence causing Hyperinsulinaemia which disturbs Hypothalamo-Pitutary-Ovarian Axis causing increase in GnRH which causes increase in LH:FSH ratio which increases ovarian androgen, reduces follicular maturity and SHBG binding giving rise to Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Also insulin in presence of its cognate receptors in presence of cAMP via P13k increases activity of 17α-Hydroxylase which is responsible for Androgen precursor synthesis so hyperinsulinaemia contributes in pathogenesis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

It is observed that insulin resistance and obesity is strongly associated in pathogenesis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

FMR1gene Subtype is associated with Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Chronic inflamation, certain inflamatory mediators and oxygen radicals are also associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

Diagnosis of PCOS

1)Ultra Sonography(USG) findings in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

  • Strings of ovarian follicles peripherally arranged in ovaries more than 25 in number most of them arrest in growth at 5-7mm and no dominant follicle reaching preovulatory size of above 16mm. It appears like “string of pearls” on USG.
  • Oligovulation or Anovulation

2) Blood Test related to PCOS

  • Testosterone elevated
  • DHEAS elevated
  • LH elevated
  • FSH reduced
  • SHBG reduced
  • LH:FSH increased
  • Free Testosterone: SHBG increased

3) Clinical signs of PCOS

  • Oligomenorrhoea less than 9/year or Amenorrhoea
  • Hirsutism , excessive hairgrowth.
  • Obesity
  • Acne

Homoeopathic Medicines for PCOS

  • Pulsatilla

HORMESIS – HOMOEOPATHY – Old Wine in New Bottle

Leave a comment

“Hormesis is a term used to describe any phenomenon in a cell or the whole organism that exhibits a biphasic response to exposure to increasing amounts of substance or condition”.  from wikipedia.

Within the hormetic zone there is generally a favorable biological response to low exposures to toxins and other stressors. ~from wikipedia

Any substance or condition showing Hormesis thus has the opposite effect in small doses as in large doses.

In toxicology,  hormesis is a dose response phenomenon characterized by a low dose stimulation, high dose inhibition, resulting in either a  J-shaped or an inverted U-shaped dose response. Such environmental factors that would seem to produce positive responses have also been termed “eustress”.  ~ from wikipedia.

This is exactly what homoeopathic principle of similia similibus curenture is. Thus theory of Hormesis proves Homoeopathic Principle of Similia Similibus Curenture.

Non of the single Homoeopathic medicines can be patented and almost all available elements and naturally occuring substances are already mentioned in homoeopathic materia medica and are efficiently used as as per principle of Similia Similibus Curentur or say homoeopathic doctorine of same cures same or say Hormesis or hormetic effect , its one and the same.

The scientific community is outright rejecting similia similibus curentur and accepting the theory of Hormesis, where as its exactly one and the same with two different names.

They say they reject homoeopathy because  homoeopathy uses only high dilution, its their lack of knowledge or misconception or delibrate misrepresentation of facts, they should not forget that homoeopthic system of medicine not only use high dilutes but also uses crude form and various different concentration of substance and we dilute it in various ways and methods to get various degrees of concerntration of the substance, we have various different scales for diluting a substance, and we have various degrees of dilutions straight from crude till very high ultra dilutions.

Wikipedia have misrepresented the fact about Homoeopathy intheir page about Hormesis, that in homoeopathy typically uses high potency. Also the page about homoeopathy terms Homoeopathic principle of same cure same as unscientific now again that contradicts with their article about hormesis where they claim this principle to be scientific.

Homoeopathy uses dilutions in varying degrees as per requirement and symptoms of patient, straight from crude substance to ultra high dilutes.

So to delibrately misrepresent the facts and to systematically demolish almost 400yrs old system of medicine, just to bring up the same principle of Similia Similibus Curenture with new name is nothing but old wine in new bottle and its a malicious act and conspiracy done just to get homoeopathic medicines and its principles patented so that few with wasted interests can make money out of it.

DENGUE

Leave a comment

DENGUE

Dengue is a disease caused by virus which is spread by Aedes mosquitoes which are usually white striped /dotted. They breed in clean water and usually bite during early morning and evening. Few cases have been reported where it has been spreaded by blood of infected person comming in contact of mucous membrane of healthcare worker.

The incubation period is 4-15 days. i.e the symptoms will appear after 4-15 days after being bitten by the infected mosquito.

There are 4 types of dengue viruses (Type 1 and type 3 are less severe compared to type 3 and type 4), so it is possible to be infected by dengue multiple times in a life time since at a time your body develops immunity only against the type you are infected with.

It is also known as “dandy fever” or “breakbone fever” as it causes severe joint pain and muscle pain.

Symptoms of Dengue

High fever with chills, headache (typically located behind the eyes), Joint pain , muscle pain, extreme pain in the lower back ,rashes, loss of appetite, extreme weakness, Thrombocytopenia (drop in platelets)

Often due to similarity of symptoms, it is difficult to distinguish between dengue and other diseases such as chikungunya, malaria , typhoid and influenza etc.

Dengue Fever can be classified in two types Uncomplicated Dengue Fever and Heamorrhagic Dengue Fever which may result into Dengue Heamorrhagic Shock and is a medical emergence and required immediate hospitalisation preferebly in an intensive care unit. Dengue Fever lasts for 5-7 days then there is a phase of udden drop in platelets for 2-3 days as its supposed that the antibodies driven against dengue virus also damages platelets and also there is suporession of bone marrow due to infection so the production of new platelets is arrested to certain extent for some period which causes severe fall in platelets , these 2-3 days post fever are very critical as patient seems to be out of fever but platelets falls drastically within,  the fall is severe bringing platelets down to sub 10k levels within a day or two and may progress into condition called Dengue Heamorrhagic Shock if there is external or internal heamorrhage as a result of damaged capillaries due to virus and extreme thrombocytopenia due to some ort of antibody driven immune response and suppressed marrow by virus.

A feeling of fatigue may last for weeks.

Diagnosis of Dengue

Drop in plateles count starts after 2-3 days from 1st day of fever and after last day of fever there severe drop causing thrombocytopenia.

LDH level may rise upto 1500 due to mild damages to liver.

In most cases where pt doesnt have any other disease condition in body the WBC starts increases only after 2-3 days from 1st day of fever when platelets starts falling

The Diagnosis can be confirmed by a blood test – Dengue NS1 antigen test, its positive only during first 2-5days of infection then indirect antibody test are used Dengue IgG and Dengue IgM if both these antibody are postive it indicates that person is infected second time with dengue virus. Every subsequent infection is more complicated then previous.

Treatment/Management of Dengue

There is no specific allopathic medicine available.

In homoeopathy certain medicines like Eupatorium Perfoliatum, Lachesis, Phosphorus are frequently used.

Treatment is based on symptomatic management of the patient

Drinking plenty of liquids – water , fruit juices, coconut water, Oral Rehydration Solution etc. and avoiding solid food or keeping it to minimum. atleast 3-4 liters of fluids should be consumed throughout the day, monitoring urine output and calculating fluid inpit is to output ratio and monitoring blood pressure.

Take enough rest.

Can take Paracetamol for reducing fever, Avoid other NSAIDS, avoid Aspirin for headache.

Its claimed that Papaya leaf juice/extract, Giloi, Kiwi fruit & dragon fruit helps in increasing platelet count but its role remains uncertain as per highly controled studies.

If platelets fall below 10000 and if there is active bleeding external or internal, then  Single Donor Platelets transfussion is required, otherwise platelets transfusion should b avoided as its observed that in many cases platelets transfussion has complicated the case.

If patient develops any kind of active bleeding or there is sudden drop in blood pressure or any symptoms of neurological origin its a medical emergency and can be fatal patient needs to b shifted to hospital with Intensive Care Unit and Blood Bank facility as it can lead to Dengue Heamorrhagic Shock and death.

Frequently it is accomoanied by malaria and it is a medical emergency as in such case platelets fall even faster and also there is loss of RBC due to malaria.

Many other conditions like autoimmune anaemia(Pernicious anaemia) and heamolytic conditions complicates the case and is a medical emergency as patient may require blood concerntrates and plateles transfussion.

Any other co-existing infection and ailments should be treated with its specific medication if required.

Though fall in platelets is thought to b due to immune response still use of corticosteroids is contradicted as its observed that it complicates the case.

If Menstrual bleeding appear during dengue there is no need to interfere or stop bleeding with help of medicines till the bleeding is not beyond average and vitals of patients are normal. wait for it to subside on its own and if it is prolonged beyond its normal course or there are other complications or vitals of patient are not normal it needs to be intervened.

Pt is considered out of risk if he has no fever for more than 4 days and also his platelets stops falling and increases 1.5 times of last reading and if there are no other comolications and his vital are normal.

Patient will feel weak for weeks after dengue and some patient will also have abdominal discomfort and loss of appetite and very mild swelling of extremities on dependent parts especially aroud ankle joint , it subsides on its own and if persists longer it may require medical attention.

Pt will require nutritious diet , enough of sleep for recovery after dengue. rest is recomended atleast for a week after dengue.

Prevention of Dengue

To avoid dengue protect yourself from the mosquitoes spreading them.
Keep your house and surroundings free of stagnant water where the Aedes mosquitoes generally breed.
Use mosquito repellent, use mosquito net while sleeping .
Wear full clothes.

AIR PURIFYING INDOOR PLANTS

We cant survive few minutes without Breathing, And the very basic and most essential substance of our survival Air is now not breathable due to air pollution created by population explosion, deforestation, industrialisation and civic development.

Recently in past decade with global surge in pollution levels as much as 20-40 times beyond acceptable limits; for certain extremely toxic pollutants in most cities; with Delhi as worlds most polluted megacity , with visibility not more than few feets, this is not only causing road accident pile-ups but also we have seen surge in deaths due to pollution, reduced life-span and poor quality of life due to ill health caused due to surge in Allergic Respiratory diseases , Allergic Skin diseases , Various Autoimmune diseases, Cancers , Hormonal Imbalances, PCOD and the list goes on.

But as we know trees are our best friends, so here they come for our rescue, luckily there are certain indoor plants which can efficiently takle situation and can bring down pollution and increase oxygen in the air thus making air more breathable effectively at our home.

According to study done at IIT-Kanpur, following 3 plants that require low and occasional sunlight and can efficiently absorb pollutants and release sufficient oxygen are and can grow almost in any region are easily availabe in India as well.

Money Plant, botanical name Epipremnum Aureum, its a creeper that can survive in low sunlight. Check the link for details of plant and its image  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epipremnum_aureum

Areca Palm also called Butterfly Palm, Botanical name Dypsis Lutes, it can survive indoor in low and required sunlight once in couple of months.Check the link for details of plant and its image  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dypsis_lutescens

Mother In Law Tug Plant also called Snake Plant, Botanical name Sansevieria Trifasciata, it can survive indoor in low and required sunlight once in couple of months. Check the link for details of plant and its image  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sansevieria_trifasciata

If 3 Erica Palm and 3 Snake Plant each 3 feet tall are planted in house supplimented with couple of short 3-6feet Money Plant creepers releases good quantity of oxygen and efficiently absorbs pollutants for a house of around 600 sqft with 4-5 members.

PATHOHENESIS AND GENETICS OF ALOPECIA AREATA

Its thought to be systemic autoimmune disorder affecting anagen hairfollicle.Its T-cell mediated inflamatory non scarring condition. T-cell mediates inflamatory response around hair follicle which damages hair follicle.

Endogenous retinoids metabolic  disorder plays a major role in its pathogenesis.

Atleast 129 various SNP  are associated with this disease in genome.

Atleast 4 regions in genome are found to have these genes

Genes associated with this disease have functions of controlling the activation and proliferation of regulatory T cells, cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte-Associated Antigen 4, InterLeukin-2, InterLeukin-2 receptor A, and Eos, and HLA.

PRDX5 and STX17 genes expressed in the hair follicle are associated with Alopecia Areata.

It shares genetic risk with autoimmune conditions like Diabetes Mellitus Type 1, Rheumatoid Arthritis and may accompany each other.It may be the only manifestation of Celiac disease.
