  • What is Coronary artery disease?

     What is Coronary artery disease?

    Coronary artery disease is known as ischemic heart disease (IHD). It contains some cluster of diseases like stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death. The symptoms of Coronary artery diseases are chest pain or pain in the shoulder and neck. Sometimes there may be some symptoms of heartburn. 
    This may cause due to exercise or emotional stress, hypertension, smoking, diabetes, obesity, high blood cholesterol, etc. the mechanism includes fall of blood flow and oxygen due to atherosclerosis. 
    This can be prevented by having a healthy diet, regular exercise, and keeping regular weight. This can be diagnosed by ECG, Echocardiogram, nuclear scan, CT angiography. It can be treated by coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), Coronary stent, and Angioplasty.
    Coronary Artery Disease is caused by damage to the coronary arteries, which are majorly responsible for carrying oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to the heart. The buildup of cholesterol plaque tends to block the arteries, reducing blood flow to the heart, resulting in reduced function. 
    In some cases, damage to the coronary arteries can also occur due to other reasons, and limit the amount of blood flowing to the heart. Partial blockage results in chest pain, shortness of breath, etc, and complete blockage leads to a heart attack. The initial symptoms of Coronary Heart Disease are not prominent, with a majority of cases only being diagnosed when the conditions progress quite a bit.

  • Which is the best treatment for lower respiratory tract infections?

     

    Which is the best treatment for lower respiratory tract infections?

    Respiratory infection is pretty common. Treatment is necessary because it affects the way you breathe. So, timely attention is necessary. Now, talking about lower respiratory tract infection, it affects the lungs and the part below the vocal cords. Bronchitis, tuberculosis, and pneumonia are some common examples.

    Lower respiratory tract infection symptoms include:

    1) Sore throat
    2)Runny nose
    3)Dry Cough
    4)Difficulty breathing
    5) Fever
    These symptoms can get severe. So, you need to pay attention at the right time.
    Lower respiratory infection treatment can vary from home remedies to professional treatment. Initially, you can start with home remedies and take enough rest. 
    You can combine these with OTC medications to get some initial relief. If that doesn’t work you need to visit a certified doctor. Contact him and inform him about your condition. He will diagnose and provide you with a customized line of treatment. This might include antibiotics and inhalers. 
    Now, if the case is severe, the doctor may use IV fluids, breathing support, and antibiotics. So, the respiratory infection treatment depends on your diagnosis. Don’t forget to visit the doctor because, in the end, only professional help works.

    Which is the best treatment? 

    Your immune system. If you expect magic from your MD, he’ll give you a prescription for a “wide spectrum” antibiotic. That’s one that kills any bacteria it encounters, good and bad. Yes, we have good, protective bacteria, in all of us.
    By the time you get the prescription paper, your immune system will have already identified the one bacteria that has invaded those cells, where they are, and has made antibodies against only them. All will be killed in five or six days; the prescribed antibiotic will be at least two days late, compared to your white blood cells, and may actually kill a few of the invaders, but most of its damage will occur in your gut, after you swallow the pills.
    There is growing concern that antibiotics are disrupting and weakening the gut biome, possibly enough to allow unnatural bacteria to take their place. Some suggest that is behind many of what they call autoimmune diseases, that seem to come from nowhere. Be careful with antibiotics; they’re suspected of causing MRSA mutations that no antibiotic can kill. Those with weak immune systems are endangered.

  • Which is the world’s most dangerous or serious disease? Share Experts Views

     Which is the world's most dangerous or serious disease? Share Experts Views

    Well.. I would not mention here any philosophical “disease” like greed or ego or something. I would not even mention any other medical disease, yet I would stick to the medical grounds. According to me, the worst disease a person can possibly have is a mental disease.
    It’s said that your attitude and state-of-mind makes you feel good and with a correct approach you can fight even the deadliest disease on earth, like cancer. Many people have battled with this demon and tasted triumph. 
    So in total what you need to heal is a healthy brain and a positive attitude, a spirit to get better and a self-encouraging set of thinking. But, what if things go wrong right up there where all of this charging has to be done.
    When you are not feeling content with your own mind, how can you even manipulate it? Many times these diseases remain undiagnosed and with time they go worse, if not treated. 
    Mood disorders, depression, schizophrenia, paranoia, bipolar disorder, psychosis are just a few among them. People with such disorders feel helpless, puzzled, and stuck in their own black-holes of mood. Mood swings, hallucinations, delusions, despair, aggression are just a few of the feelings that a mental patient feels. 
    In most cases, patients do not even realise/accept their ailment. These diseases though are not clinically fatal like other ones, yet deaths due to mental ailment are quite high throughout the world, and the number is increasing every year. 
    These deaths are not directly due to the ailment, instead, the patient kills himself (commits suicide) due to the chaos created in mind. 
    Some patients even become homicidal. With a mental disease, the patient is not only the sufferer, the family equally suffers. 
    Due to the lack of awareness and sufficient knowledge, the patient is sometimes jeopardized by the family and mostly by society, which results in serious outcomes.
    With proper treatment and medication regime, a mental patient can live a better life. But even this has got a lot of hurdles. The patient rejects the treatment in the first place. 
    If the patient gets ready, society makes the next stumbling stock. Mental diseases are usually stigmatized and visiting a psychiatrist is considered a taboo. 
    Especially here in India, you can’t visit a psychiatrist as freely as a physician in order to avoid a disgusting and ridiculous tag given to a mental patient by society. So how can you get better if you don’t even reach out for help.
    That was my take on this topic. May be many people would not agree with my views. I have seen a cancer patient as well as a mental patient in my life and this answer is the conclusion.
