Lung Cancer

The filters of cigarettes are supposed to filter out the bad things that you are smoking, so they do not go into your lungs. A lot of people think they are more dangerous, however they have no scientific link to causing cancer.

Endometriosis, a condition where tissue resembling the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, is classified into four stages based on the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) staging system. In Stage I, known as minimal endometriosis, few small implants or scars are present with minimal endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Stage II, categorized as mild endometriosis, involves more numerous implants, slightly deeper infiltration, and some scarring around the pelvic area. Stage III, or moderate endometriosis, exhibits more extensive implants, deeper infiltration, and significant scarring or adhesions, potentially affecting organs such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes. Finally, Stage IV, considered severe endometriosis, showcases widespread implants, deep infiltrations, and extensive scarring or adhesions, potentially impacting multiple pelvic and abdominal organs like the bladder, intestines, and rectum.

The treatment for your headache depends on what type of headache it is (there is a long list of different kinds of headaches) and what has caused it. For best results, consult a headache specialist who is trained to diagnosis and treat headache disorders.

No. Laziness can be a character trait, or it can be a learned behaviour.

Alternative treatments for conditions that cause the occurrence of papilledema include acupuncture, aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, massage, and herbal remedies.

The prostate's role in urination is related to its location and its potential to affect the urethra. When the prostate gland becomes enlarged, a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), it can compress the urethra, which passes through the prostate. This compression can lead to various urinary symptoms, including:

Increased frequency of urination: The narrowing of the urethra due to prostate enlargement can result in incomplete emptying of the bladder, leading to the need to urinate more frequently.

Urgency: The pressure on the bladder caused by an enlarged prostate can create a sudden and urgent need to urinate.

Weak urine stream: Compression of the urethra by an enlarged prostate can restrict the flow of urine, resulting in a weaker stream or difficulty initiating urination.

Difficulty starting urination: Enlargement of the prostate can obstruct the flow of urine, making it challenging to initiate urination.

Nocturia: Increased urination at night, disrupting sleep patterns, can occur due to an enlarged prostate.

These urinary symptoms are characteristic of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and are not typically associated with prostate cancer. However, if you experience any changes in urination patterns, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management.

There is no age limit or required age to have a toenail fungus. It is usually caused by poor hygiene and infections. So if you do not take care of your body properly especially your foot chances are high that you could get diseases like toenail fungus.

I have had some success using hydrogen peroxide for toenail fungus. Both big toenails and my left little toenail were almost black and painful to the touch. I started applying peroxide (just about the cheapest thing in the drugstore) to my nails, holding them up slightly to allow the peroxide to go under the nails. The stuff bubbles up and certainly appears to be doing something. I did this day and night for a couple of months and one of my large toenails and the little one cleared up completely. The other toenail has never cleared up but is definitely better. I am still applying the peroxide daily and it's under control but still noticeable. It sure won't cost you much to try this remedy and it can't hurt you, so why not try it? The medicine Lamisil which doctor's prescribe is about $300 a month and most insurance won't cover it. Good luck!

Tender and swollen spots on the head could be from scalp issues. If the hair follicles are irritated, this can also cause tender spots.

In very small or sick premature infants, the risk for necrotizing enterocolitis may be diminished by beginning parenteral nutrition and delaying enteral feedings for several days to weeks.

Bowel cancer is often referred to as colorectal cancer because it originates in the colon or rectum, which are parts of the large intestine, also known as the colorectum. The term "colorectal" is derived from "colorectum," which encompasses both the colon and rectum.

Here's why the terms are used interchangeably:

Anatomy: The colon and rectum are contiguous parts of the large intestine, forming a continuous tube through which waste products pass before elimination from the body. Bowel cancer can develop in either the colon or rectum, as they share similar tissue types and functions.

Cancer Origins: Most colorectal cancers arise from abnormal growths called polyps that develop on the inner lining of the colon or rectum. Over time, some of these polyps may progress to cancerous tumors. Since both the colon and rectum can be affected by these polyps and subsequent cancers, the term "colorectal cancer" is used to encompass cancers originating from either location.

Clinical Considerations: From a clinical standpoint, colorectal cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment strategies often apply to both colon and rectal cancers. Therefore, using the term "colorectal cancer" helps to encompass the entirety of the disease spectrum and facilitates comprehensive management approaches.

Public Health and Awareness: Using a single term like "colorectal cancer" helps streamline public health efforts, educational campaigns, and awareness initiatives. It ensures clarity and consistency in communication, making it easier for individuals to understand the importance of screening, prevention, and early detection efforts.

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), largely a genetic disorder may affect 35 percent of women in their reproductive years and close to 90 per cent of obese/ overweight women. The incidence of PCOS is rising among young women and is probably the largest contributor to female infertility.

Blindness and deafness aren't diseases. Helen Keller wasn't born blind and deaf, when she was young she contracted scarlet fever or meningitis. As a result she lost both her hearing and her sight.

As of my last update, there is no public information indicating that Stan Lee is currently sick. However, he has faced some health issues in the past. It is recommended to check official sources for the most up-to-date information.

Minamata disease was not named after the Mad Hatter; it was named after Minamata Bay in Japan, where the disease was first discovered in the 1950s due to mercury pollution. The Mad Hatter, from Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," was often depicted as suffering from mercury poisoning due to the use of mercury in hat-making during the 18th and 19th centuries.

People receive chemotherapy for various types of cancer. Chemotherapy is a systemic treatment that uses drugs to destroy cancer cells or slow their growth. It is used in different scenarios:

Primary Treatment: Chemotherapy may be used as the main treatment for certain types of cancer, either alone or in combination with other treatments like surgery or radiation therapy.

Adjuvant Treatment: After surgery or radiation therapy to remove or shrink the primary tumour, chemotherapy may be used to kill any remaining cancer cells that cannot be seen.

Neoadjuvant Treatment: Chemotherapy can be given before surgery or radiation therapy to shrink a tumor, making it easier to remove or treat with other methods.

Metastatic or Advanced Cancer: Chemotherapy is often used to treat cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic cancer) or is in an advanced stage where surgery or radiation alone may not be sufficient.

Palliative Care: In cases where the cancer cannot be cured, chemotherapy may be used to relieve symptoms, control the growth of the cancer, and improve quality of life.

The specific chemotherapy drugs used and the duration of treatment depend on factors such as the type and stage of cancer, overall health, and individual response to treatment.
