Getting to Know Varicose Veins, Aesthetic or Medical Problem?<\/a><\/h3>
Sahabat Hermina, varises merupakan penyakit yang sering ditangani oleh dokter bedah vaskular dan endovaskular. Saat ini banyak sekali pasien varises yang datang berobat namun kondisinya sudah parah. \n\n Varises diketahui dengan gejala seperti nyeri pada betis, gatal pada kaki, kulit kaki kering dan rusak, bengkak setelah duduk atau berdiri dalam waktu lama, dan perjalanan jauh; pembuluh darah terlihat di kaki; kulit hitam di betis dan kaki; bahkan yang paling parah pun bisa menyebabkan luka di sekitar varises yang tidak kunjung sembuh. \n\n Varises adalah suatu kondisi kronis dimana terjadi pelebaran pembuluh darah di sekitar kaki akibat kelemahan atau kerusakan pada katup arteri atau vena. Katup ini berfungsi sebagai pintu satu arah sehingga darah yang melewatinya tidak bisa kembali. \n\n Beberapa faktor yang dapat meningkatkan risiko seseorang terkena varises adalah jenis kelamin (kebanyakan wanita), kurangnya aktivitas fisik atau olahraga, sering duduk atau berdiri dalam waktu lama, faktor genetik, kehamilan, obesitas, dan kebiasaan memakai sepatu hak tinggi. \n\n Varises tidak boleh dianggap sepele dan harus ditangani dengan baik. Jika kondisi ini sudah terjadi bertahun-tahun, gangguan aliran darah pada pembuluh darah vena berpotensi menimbulkan komplikasi, seperti tromboflebitis, kaki menjadi tidak stabil, kulit kaki menjadi hitam, pembuluh darah di kaki menjadi lebar dan berliku-liku, serta koreng dan luka yang tidak bisa dihilangkan. penyembuhan, infeksi, penyumbatan pembuluh darah internal (DVT), dan emboli paru, yang dapat menyebabkan kematian \n\n Apakah varises bisa diobati? \n\n Varises dapat sembuh dan membaik jika ditangani dengan pengobatan yang tepat dan dokter yang tepat. Perawatan varises saat ini dapat mencakup menjaga aktivitas, mengurangi berat badan, olahraga, stoking medis, pengobatan, suntikan skleroterapi, dan perawatan non-operatif atau endovaskular seperti laser, frekuensi radio, lem, dan pembedahan. \n\n Saat ini, prosedur non-operatif atau endovaskular berupa ablasi laser, ablasi frekuensi radio, ablasi gelombang mikro, atau lem vocular merupakan prosedur yang paling disukai karena prosedur ini lebih nyaman, luka operasi hanya sebesar jarum suntik, dan pasien dapat melakukan aktivitas normal sehari setelah prosedur. \n\n Sahabat Hermina, segera konsultasikan pada diri Anda jika mengalami gejala varises seperti di atas. Pergi ke departemen bedah vaskular. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

You must know the difference between dengue fever and ordinary fever<\/a><\/h3>
Demam merupakan penyakit yang sering dialami banyak orang. Namun demam dapat mengindikasikan adanya masalah kesehatan yang besar, terutama jika disertai dengan peningkatan suhu tubuh yang signifikan. Mengingat perbedaan yang signifikan antara demam berdarah dan demam biasa dalam kasus ini, maka penting untuk membedakannya. \n\n Saat seseorang mengalami demam biasa, suhu tubuhnya berada di atas kisaran normal, yaitu 37 derajat Celcius. Biasanya, penyakit ringan hingga berat menjadi penyebab demam biasa. Sakit kepala, nyeri otot, kelelahan, dan menggigil adalah gejala khas flu. Demam yang normal dapat diatasi dengan obat penurun demam seperti parasetamol, banyak minum air putih, dan istirahat yang cukup. Biasanya akan membaik dalam waktu kurang dari tiga hari. \n\n Sebaliknya, demam berdarah adalah penyakit yang berpotensi mengancam jiwa, yang jika tidak ditangani dapat menjadi serius dan berakibat fatal. Virus demam berdarah penyebab demam berdarah ini ditularkan melalui gigitan nyamuk Aedes aegypti. Demam berdarah awalnya bermanifestasi sebagai demam tinggi, sakit kepala, dan nyeri otot, sama seperti demam lainnya. Di sisi lain, petechiae (bintik merah pada kulit) dan mimisan merupakan salah satu gejala pendarahan yang mungkin timbul akibat demam berdarah. Ungkapan “siklus pelana kuda” atau “fase demam naik turun” adalah nama lain dari penyakit demam berdarah. Siklus yang menyerupai bentuk segitiga atas-bawah-atas ini mencerminkan kondisi demam yang dialami pasien demam berdarah. \n\n Sangat penting bagi Anda untuk segera mendapatkan pertolongan medis jika Anda atau seseorang yang Anda kenal mengalami gejala demam berdarah. Untuk memastikan diagnosis dan memberikan perawatan yang tepat, dokter akan melakukan tes darah. Meskipun tidak ada terapi khusus untuk demam berdarah, ada obat yang dapat membantu mengatasi gejala dan menghentikan konsekuensi yang lebih serius. \n\n Demam biasa dan demam berdarah berbeda tidak hanya dalam penyebab dan gejalanya tetapi juga dalam pengobatan dan metode pencegahannya. Pengobatan flu biasa biasanya terdiri dari istirahat yang cukup, tetap terhidrasi, dan penggunaan obat penurun demam. Namun tindakan pencegahan yang lebih ketat diperlukan untuk menghindari penyakit demam berdarah. Hal ini mencakup menyingkirkan tempat perkembangbiakan nyamuk, seperti mengosongkan dan membersihkan area yang dipenuhi air, tidur di bawah kelambu, dan mengenakan pakaian yang melindungi tubuh dari gigitan nyamuk. \n\n Singkatnya, demam berdarah dan demam biasa adalah dua penyakit yang berbeda. Meskipun demam dapat meningkatkan suhu tubuh, demam berdarah adalah penyakit yang lebih berbahaya dan berpotensi fatal. Sangat penting untuk dapat membedakan kedua penyakit ini dan, jika perlu, mencari pertolongan medis yang tepat. Jangan pernah lupa untuk menjaga kebersihan dan mematuhi tindakan pencegahan untuk menghentikan penyebaran demam berdarah. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Is it possible to prevent hereditary diabetes?<\/a><\/h3>
Diabetes is a hereditary disease that knows no age. In fact, even small children can get diabetes. Diabetes is a disease characterized by high levels of sugar or glucose in the blood. Even though diabetes is a hereditary disease, that doesn't mean it can't be prevented. In fact, environmental factors have a greater influence on the prevalence of diabetes than genetic factors.\n\nEnvironmental factors that can influence the risk of diabetes include unhealthy eating patterns, lack of physical activity, obesity, and exposure to dangerous chemicals. A diet that is high in sugar and saturated fat, and low in fiber can increase the risk of developing diabetes. Likewise, lack of physical activity can cause weight gain and insulin resistance. Apart from that, obesity can also increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.\n\nTo prevent diabetes, it is important to adopt a healthy lifestyle. One step that can be taken is to organize a balanced and nutritious diet. Consuming foods that are high in fiber, low in sugar, and healthy fats such as unsaturated fats can help maintain blood sugar balance. Apart from that, it is also important to avoid processed foods and sweet drinks which can increase the risk of diabetes.\n\nApart from diet, physical activity also plays an important role in preventing diabetes. Doing regular exercise can help control weight, increase insulin sensitivity, and maintain overall body health. It is recommended to do at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week, such as walking, cycling or swimming. \n\n Apart from that, it is also important to avoid exposure to dangerous chemicals that can increase the risk of diabetes. Some chemicals such as pesticides, air pollutants, and chemicals in household products can contribute to the development of diabetes. Using organic products, ensuring good ventilation in the home, and avoiding exposure to harmful substances can help prevent the risk of diabetes.\n\nApart from the steps above, it is also important to maintain a healthy body weight, regularly check blood sugar, and avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. Diabetes is a serious disease that can cause dangerous complications, such as heart disease, kidney damage, and vision problems. Therefore, preventing diabetes is very important.\n\nAlthough diabetes is an inherited disease, environmental factors can play a larger role in preventing this disease. By adopting a healthy lifestyle, managing our diet, and maintaining physical activity, we can reduce the risk of developing diabetes. Don't forget to avoid exposure to dangerous substances and maintain a healthy body weight. Diabetes is not a fate that cannot be changed, but is a condition that can be prevented with the right efforts. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Recognize the Severe Symptoms of Dengue Fever that You Should Be Aware of<\/a><\/h3>
Hello Hermina Friends, Dengue fever can be divided into two types, namely dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever. The difference lies in the leakage of blood vessels. Dengue hemorrhagic fever causes blood vessel leakage, while dengue fever does not.\nDengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) or Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever is an infectious disease caused by the Aedes aegypti mosquito which carries the dengue virus. Other types of Aedes mosquitoes such as Aedes albopictus, Aedes polynesiensis, and Aedes scutellaris can also be vectors of the dengue virus but are not as effective as Aedes aegypti. When a person is infected with the dengue virus due to an Aedes Aegypti mosquito bite, the virus will move to that person's body and incubate for a long time. 4 to 10 days and then causes symptoms of infection. \n\n Symptoms of dengue fever\n\nThe symptoms of dengue fever can indeed be seen as something that is "deceptive", because the initial symptoms are very similar to the symptoms caused by other viruses. In general, a person will experience signs of dengue fever within 4 - 6 days after being infected by the dengue virus.\n\nA person affected by dengue fever will experience a sudden high fever reaching a temperature above 38 degrees Celsius. Apart from fever, dengue fever sufferers can experience severe headaches, muscle aches, nausea and heartburn, signs of bleeding such as nosebleeds, bleeding gums, and red spots appearing on the skin.\n\nFever mainly lasts in the first 1 - 2 days, and will go down on day 3. However, between day 3 to day 5 when the fever is going down, this is actually the critical period for dengue fever, where fluid leaks from the blood vessels. which is accompanied by a decrease in platelet values, requiring fluid therapy and close observation. \n\n Symptoms of Severe DHF\n\nIt is not uncommon for dengue fever to cause fatalities due to late treatment. Moreover, if the dengue fever patient has entered a dangerous severe phase.\n\nTo prevent complications from this disease, you need to know the signs and symptoms of severe dengue fever.\n\nThe following are signs and symptoms of severe dengue fever that you need to be aware of early:\n\n1.

Bleeding\n\nLaboratory results show an increase in hematocrit or hemoconcentration of more than 20% from the initial value, along with a rapid decrease in platelet count below 100,000 \n\n X-ray results showed a buildup of fluid in the lungs\nRecognizing the signs and symptoms of severe dengue fever early is very important. Dengue fever that is considered severe can affect the blood vessels and lymph vessels, and if not treated early can cause circulatory system failure.\nIt needs to be understood that severe dengue fever is a life-threatening medical emergency, so this method of treating Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever needs to be done immediately. \n\n Dengue prevention\nHow to prevent dengue fever (DHF) at home.

Get to know about keloids and various therapy options<\/a><\/h3>
Hello friend Hermina, Keloids are abnormal wound healing characterized by excessive growth of connective tissue beyond the size of the wound. The appearance of a keloid is a hard lump on the skin, irregular in shape, red, purplish to brown in color. Complaints often include itching, pain and a feeling of pulling on the skin. Areas on the body where keloids often occur include the cheeks, earlobes, chest, shoulders, upper arms and shoulders. \nThe risk factors for keloids in a person are mainly due to genetic factors. Other factors include infected wounds that are not treated promptly, suturing wounds with high stretches of the skin and using the wrong type of thread. Keloids appear 3-12 months after injuries such as acne scars, chicken pox, tattoo or piercing scars, and surgical scars. \n\n Keloids are generally not dangerous, but they affect your appearance and reduce your self-confidence. As science and technology develop, keloid therapy also develops and provides satisfactory results. The recurrence rate of keloids in some cases is also high, so a combination of therapy and repeat therapy are often required. \n\n \n\n Some therapy options for keloids include: \n\n 1. Compression therapy is by pressing the keloid using a silicone gel sheet, which is usually attached to the keloid for 12-24 hours a day. \n\n 2. Topical therapy in the form of topical medication containing mitomycin C or 5 fluorouracil (5FU) for keloids. \n\n 3. Intralesional corticosteroid injections or injections are the most frequently used therapy and provide quite satisfactory results. Some side effects that are often found include changes in skin color around the keloid. This injection is routinely repeated every 2-3 weeks until the keloid is deflated. Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injection is the newest therapy aimed at reducing tension in the muscles, so it is useful for reducing pain, redness and itching. This injection is usually repeated every 2-3 months. Stem cell injection has also been carried out in several keloid cases and has given satisfactory results. \n\n 4. Surgical Therapy \nExcision surgery is usually performed on large keloids, all keloid tissue is removed and then sutured. After the keloid is excised, additional therapy is needed to prevent recurrence, such as using silicone gel or a combination of injection therapy. \nFrozen surgery or cryotherapy using temperatures of -4 to -7 degrees Celsius aims to destroy keloid tissue. \n\n \n5. Lasers \nLaser is useful for reducing the size of keloids and has the advantage of repairing tissue and pigmentation on the skin, so it can disguise scars. Several types of lasers that are often used in keloid therapy include NdYag Laser, Fractional CO2 Laser, and Pulse Dye Laser (PDL). This laser procedure also requires repetition to get maximum results. \n\n If Hermina's friend has keloids, consult your friend so they can immediately get the right therapy. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Benefits of Exercise for Skin<\/a><\/h3>
Exercise not only helps maintain the health of organs in our body, such as the heart, but also has extraordinary benefits for our skin. Regular and consistent physical activity can strengthen the skin's ability to fight aging and other types of damage.\n\nOne of the main benefits of exercise for the skin is increased blood flow. When we exercise, our heart rate increases, and blood flow throughout the body increases. This means more oxygen and nutrients are brought to our skin. This oxygen and nutrition is important for repairing damaged skin cells and speeding up the skin regeneration process. In other words, exercise can help our skin stay healthy and bright.\n\nApart from that, exercise can also help reduce stress. When we exercise, our bodies produce endorphins, hormones that can improve mood and reduce stress. Excessive stress can cause various skin problems, such as acne, rashes and dull skin. By reducing stress through exercise, we can prevent the appearance of these skin problems and keep our skin healthy.\n\nPhysical activity can also increase collagen production in our body. Collagen is a protein that is important for skin strength, suppleness and elasticity. As we age, collagen production in our bodies tends to decrease, which can lead to sagging skin and wrinkles. By exercising regularly, we can stimulate collagen production in our body, so that our skin remains firm and youthful.\n\nApart from that, exercise also helps eliminate toxins from the body through sweat. When we exercise and sweat, toxins and other harmful substances are removed from our body through the pores of the skin. This helps cleanse the skin from within and prevents skin problems such as acne and blackheads.\n\nIn conclusion, exercise is not only beneficial for the health of the organs in our body, but also has significant benefits for our skin. Regular physical activity can strengthen the skin's ability to fight aging and other damage, improve blood flow, reduce stress, increase collagen production, and help eliminate toxins from the body. Therefore, don't forget to incorporate exercise in your daily routine to keep your skin healthy and radiant. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Can frequent heart palpitations be a sign of heart disease?<\/a><\/h3>
In general, heart palpitations are a common condition and do not require special treatment if they only occur occasionally and are temporary without other complaints. However, keep in mind that if this condition occurs frequently without a clear trigger or if you have a history of heart disease, then you need to be careful. Immediately consult a doctor if heart palpitations are accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, chest pain, severe shortness of breath, or even fainting.\n\nHeart palpitations can be caused by various factors, such as stress, fatigue, excessive consumption of caffeine or alcohol, or even due to the side effects of certain medications. However, if you experience heart palpitations continuously and without a clear trigger, this could be a sign of a heart problem.\n\nHeart disease is a serious disease and can be life threatening. Therefore, it is important for us to understand the symptoms that may occur if heart palpitations are a sign of heart disease. These symptoms include dizziness, chest pain, severe shortness of breath, or even fainting. If you experience these symptoms, immediately consult a doctor to get the right diagnosis and necessary treatment.\n\nIn making a diagnosis, the doctor will perform a physical examination and may also require additional tests such as an electrocardiogram (ECG), blood tests, or heart imaging tests. Based on the results of this examination, the doctor will be able to determine whether the palpitations you are experiencing are a symptom of heart disease or not.\n\nIf it turns out that the palpitations you are experiencing are a symptom of heart disease, the doctor will prescribe treatment that suits your condition. This treatment can take the form of drugs that help regulate heart rate, lifestyle changes such as reducing caffeine or alcohol consumption, stopping smoking, and adopting a healthy diet, or even medical procedures such as installing a pacemaker.\n\nIn this case, it is important for us not to ignore the symptoms that may occur due to heart palpitations. Although not all heart palpitations are a sign of heart disease, we still have to be careful and seek medical help immediately if these symptoms appear. By carrying out proper examinations and getting the necessary treatment, we can prevent more serious complications and maintain good heart health. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Early Signs of a Heart Attack that Often Go Unnoticed<\/a><\/h3>
Heart attacks are one of the most common causes of death in the world. Data from the World Health Organization (WHO) shows that every year, more than 17 million people die from heart attacks. Moreover, this disease is often discovered suddenly without any initial symptoms being noticed. Therefore, it is important for us to recognize the early signs of a heart attack which are often not realized.\n\nOne of the most common symptoms of a heart attack is chest pain or a feeling of heaviness behind the breastbone. This pain usually feels like pressure or burning and can radiate to the left arm, jaw, or back. However, not everyone experiences chest pain when a heart attack occurs. There are also other signs that many people are often unaware of.\n\nOne of the early signs of a heart attack that is often not realized is shortness of breath. People having a heart attack may find it difficult to breathe or feel out of breath easily. This occurs because disrupted blood flow to the heart causes damage to the heart muscle and reduces its ability to pump blood properly.\n\nApart from that, nausea and vomiting can also be early signs of a heart attack that are often not realized. Some people may experience bloating or discomfort in the stomach before a heart attack occurs. Nausea and vomiting occur because damage to the heart muscle causes poor blood circulation to other organs in the body.\n\nAnother early sign of a heart attack that is often not realized is weakness or unnatural fatigue. People who have a heart attack may feel excessive tiredness or unexplained tiredness. This happens because the damaged heart muscle cannot pump blood efficiently, so the body becomes deprived of oxygen and energy. \n\n Apart from that, a heart attack can also be characterized by cold sweat and dizziness. This cold sweat occurs because blood flow is disrupted to the brain, while dizziness occurs due to a lack of blood and oxygen supply to the brain. Both are signs that many people are often unaware of.\n\nIn dealing with a heart attack, early detection is very important. Therefore, we need to recognize the early signs of a heart attack which are often not realized. If you experience these symptoms, immediately seek medical help. Don't ignore or underestimate these signs, because a heart attack can be fatal if not treated immediately.\n\nIn an effort to prevent heart attacks, it is important for us to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Avoid smoking, eat healthy foods, and do regular exercise. Apart from that, be diligent in carrying out regular health checks, especially if you have risk factors such as a family history of heart attacks or diseases such as diabetes or hypertension.\n\nBy recognizing the early signs of a heart attack which are often not realized, we can be more alert and take appropriate preventive steps. Remember that heart health is very important, and maintaining heart health is the best investment in our future. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

HIV and AIDS are not the same<\/a><\/h3>
HIV and AIDS are two terms that are often used interchangeably, but they actually have significant differences. HIV is the abbreviation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus, while AIDS is the abbreviation of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome.\n\nHIV is a virus that attacks the human immune system. This virus can attack and damage CD4 cells, which are responsible for fighting infections in the body. When the number of CD4 cells decreases, the immune system becomes weak and cannot fight infections effectively. HIV can be transmitted through direct contact with infected blood, semen, vaginal fluids, or other body fluids. Transmission of HIV generally occurs through unprotected sexual intercourse, use of contaminated needles, or from an infected mother to her baby during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding.\n\nAIDS, on the other hand, is an advanced stage of HIV infection. A person is said to have AIDS when their immune system is very weak and they have a serious infection or rare illness. AIDS can cause symptoms such as fever, significant weight loss, chronic diarrhea, fungal infections, and certain cancers. Without proper treatment, AIDS can be fatal.\n\nIt is important to understand the difference between HIV and AIDS because HIV can be treated and controlled with antiretroviral therapy (ARV). This therapy can help keep the immune system stable and prevent the progression of HIV to AIDS. Although there is no cure for HIV, appropriate treatment can allow a person with HIV to live a good quality of life and reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to others.\n\nIn dealing with HIV and AIDS, it is important to educate the public about prevention, transmission and appropriate treatment. Using condoms during sexual intercourse, using sterile needles and regular HIV testing are important steps in preventing HIV transmission. Additionally, social support and access to adequate medical care are also critical in helping individuals living with HIV or AIDS.\n\nIn conclusion, HIV and AIDS are two different conditions although they are often used interchangeably. HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system, while AIDS is an advanced stage of HIV infection where the immune system is very weak. Correct understanding of these differences is important for prevention, transmission, and appropriate treatment. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

5 benefits of circumcision that you need to know<\/a><\/h3>
Circumcision is a surgical procedure that involves removing the pleura or skin that covers the head of the penis in a man. In addition to having a religious value, circumcision also has important health benefits that you need to know. In this article, we will discuss five benefits of circumcision that you should know, especially in relation to the health of your child. \n\n 1. Reduces the risk of infection \n\n One of the main benefits of circumcision is reducing the risk of infection. The bubble that covers the head of the penis can be a breeding place for bacteria and germs that can cause infection. By lifting the bubble through circumcision, the risk of infection can be significantly reduced. \n\n 2. Preventing health problems \n\n Circumcision can also help prevent health problems associated with constipation in children. Some of the problems that can be avoided through circumcision include phimosis, a condition in which the pleura cannot be easily pulled back into the head of the penis, and balanitis, which is inflammation in the penis head. By doing circumcision, children can be avoided from this health problem. \n\n 3. Improve hygiene \n\n By lifting the pleura through circumcision, the hygiene of the penis area can also be improved. The bubbles that cover the head of the penis can cause accumulation of dirt and bacteria, which can cause unpleasant odors and other hygiene problems. By doing circumcision, the genital area becomes easier to clean and hygiene is easier to keep. \n\n 4. Reduces the risk of cancer \n\n Circumcision has also been shown to reduce the risk of cancer in men.
