What Is Herpes? - Types of Herpes 11 April 2024

Herpes (or herpes simplex to use the technical name) is a much-misunderstood medical condition. One reason is because it takes two forms, HSV-1 and HSV-2. HSV-1 typically affects the skin around the face and mouth while HSV-2 affects the genitals. Once a person is infected with the herpes virus, the infection is a lifelong one. The virus may remain dormant in the system for years and only appear when the body is exposed to a trigger. When an attack occurs, it normally results in skin sores that are itchy and painful. The sores typically last for 10 to 14 days. In many cases, people with the herpes virus never experience any symptoms at all.

What You Need to Know About Ovarian Cyst 09 April 2024

A woman has two ovaries, one on each side of the uterus. Each of the ovaries has a shape and size similar to an almond. The ovaries are where eggs develop and mature during the childbearing years. They are released in a regular monthly cycle. Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop in the ovaries or on the outer surface. This is a common development and, in most cases, the cysts are harmless and cause no discomfort or symptoms. Normally, they disappear within a few months without the need for any treatment. However, in some cases, the cysts can become large and rupture which can lead to severe complications.

Understanding Flat Feet 08 April 2024

A person with flat feet (also called “flatfoot” or “fallen arches”) has feet with little or no arch. This means that when they stand, the full sole is pressed to the floor with no visible arch. The arch may appear when the feet are lifted up and there is no weight on them. Everyone is born with flat feet but the arches normally develop by the age of 6. About 20% of children do not develop arches and they have flat feet as adults. Flat feet do not, in most cases, cause any problems or limit mobility. However, in some instances, they can be painful or make foot and ankle problems more likely. In such cases, medical treatment is required.

When veins that are close to the skin’s surface become enlarged and bulge out, they are known as varicose veins. While they can appear anywhere on the body, they are most common in the legs.
