Foot Warts - Verrucas, also called Warts, well-defined small growth of varying shape on the skin surface, caused by a virus. The wart is composed of an abnormal proliferation of cells of the epidermis; the overproduction of these cells is caused by the viral infection. The most common type of wart is a round, raised lesion having a dry and rough surface; flat or threadlike lesions are also seen. Warts are usually painless, except for those in pressure areas, such as the plantar warts, or Verrucas, that occur on the sole of the foot. They may occur as isolated lesions or grow profusely, especially in moist regions of the body surface. verrucas, verucas, verukas, verruca, veruca, veruka, feruka, ferruca, feruca, fruca, fruka, varuca, varuka, faruka, faruca, firuca, firuka, firruca,

Hemroids or Hemorrhoids  - noun

Veins in the wall of the anus; piles.  -

 Usually, hemroids. Pathology. an abnormally enlarged vein mainly due to a persistent increase in venous pressure, occurring inside the anal sphincter of the rectum and beneath the mucous membrane - an internal hemorrhoid,  or outside the anal sphincter and beneath the surface of the anal skin - external hemorrhoid.

Varicose Veins.

Greek Haima meaning blood, and 

Rhoos meaning flowing

The word hemorrhoid us derived from the Greek word 'aiva' (blood) and the word 'poia' (flow) The word pile is derived from the Latin word 'pila' (ball)

Hell on Earth.

Hemroids - also spelled Haemorrhoid and Hemroids, also called Piles, a mass formed by distension of the network of veins under the mucous membrane that lines the anal channel or under the skin lining the external portion of the anus.

A form of varicose vein, a hemorrhoid may develop from anal infection or from increase in intra-abdominal pressure, such as occurs during pregnancy, or whilst lifting a heavy object, or while straining at stool. This is constipation.

Sweating through heavy work, or even from a sweat rash can allow the internal pile to become external.

It may be a complication of chronic liver disease or tumours. The weakness in the vessel wall that permits the defect to develop may be inherited.

Mild haemorrhoids may be treated by such methods as the use of suppositories, generic creams, non-irritating laxatives, and warm baths. If clots have formed, or in the presence of other complications, the hemroids may be removed surgically.
 

Hemroids, also spelt Hemroids, Haemorrhoids, also called Piles, Roids, and Rhoids. Also called grapes, because when acute piles hang outside the body there is similar appearance to a bunch of grapes. Sometimes they are comically referred to as Heaps, as a play on the word, Piles. 

In Cockney Rhyming Slang, as the phrase "Apples & Pears" meant stairs,  "Farmer Giles" meant piles;  but as in many words, as the English Language changes, it has fell out of use. But you may still hear the phrase: "  . . . My farmers are giving me grief !"

Hemroids, are a mass formed by the stretching and swelling of the network of veins under the mucous membrane that lines the anal canal, or also under the skin, lining the external portion of the anus.

 
 
Toilet Paper - USA…1857 - New Yorker Joseph C. Gayetty produced the first packaged bathroom tissue in the United States in 1857 - The average person in the Western World use 57 sheets of toilet paper each day.

 

Constipation is perhaps the main cause of piles, mainly because everyone can suffer this, not everyone can get pregnant say, or often lifts heavy weights. Straining to pass stools will stretch and push the piles  downwards and over time piles will appear. 

CONSTIPATION - delayed movement of waste through the lower portion of your large intestine. Akin with the discharge of relatively dry, hardened feces from the anus, will severely aggravate piles. The quicker the waste passes through you the less likelihood of constipation. The lower part of your intestine removes water from the digesting liquids that have come from your stomach, but if the waste is delayed for any reason the waste will become harder and dryer, thus harder to discharge.

Among the causes cited for the disorder are lack of regularity in one's eating habits, spasms of the large intestine, metabolic diseases such as hypothyroidism or diabetes mellitus, neurological disorders such as a stroke, certain medications including morphine, codeine, antidepressants, and antispasmodics, lack of sufficient fiber in one's food, and excessive use of laxatives.

Constipation may also be caused by intestinal obstruction by tumors or polyps or by weakness of the abdominal muscles. Temporary constipation most often occurs in conjunction with a change or interruption in one's usual activities, as in travel, temporary confinement to bed, or a change in eating or sleeping habits.

In most cases, dietary and lifestyle changes can help relieve constipation.
Hemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels of the rectum. The hemorrhoidal veins are located in the lowest area of the rectum and the anus. Sometimes they swell so that the vein walls become stretched, thin, and irritated by passing bowel movements. When these swollen veins bleed, itch, or hurt, they are known as hemorrhoids, or piles. Hemorrhoids are classified into two general categories: internal and external.

STOOLS or Feces, also spelled faeces. Also called excrement, or poo or shit, the solid bodily waste discharged from the large intestine through the anus during defecation - going to the toilet.

Feces, or bodily waste solids are normally removed from the body one or two times a day. About 100 to 250 grams  - 3 to 8 ounces, of feces are excreted by a human adult daily.

Normally, feces are made up of 75 percent water and 25 percent solid matter. About 30 percent of the solid matter consists of dead bacteria; about 30 percent consists of indigestible food matter such as cellulose; 10 to 20 percent is cholesterol and other fats; 10 to 20 percent is inorganic substances such as calcium phosphate and iron phosphate; and 2 to 3 percent is protein. Cell debris shed from the mucous membrane of the intestinal tract also passes in the waste material, as do bile pigments  - bilirubin,  and dead leukocytes - white blood cells. The brown color of feces is due to the action of bacteria on bilirubin, which is the end product of the breakdown of the haemoglobin - red blood cells. The odor of feces is caused by the chemicals indole, skatole, hydrogen sulfide, and mercaptans, which are produced by a bacterial action.

Many diseases and disorders can affect bowel function and produce abnormalities in the feces. Constipation is characterized by infrequent evacuations and the production of excessively hard and dry feces, while diarrhoea results in frequent defecation and excessively soft, watery feces. Bleeding in the stomach or intestines may result in the passage of blood with the stool, which appears dark red, tarry, or black. Fatty or greasy stools usually indicate pancreatic or small-intestine afflictions. Typhoid, cholera, and amoebic dysentery are among diseases spread by the contamination of food with the feces of infected persons.

The main job of the digestive system is to further process our food / organic fuel, after it has come from the stomach. Inside the lining of this 22 foot, or nearly seven meter canal, is a mass of veins that take  / absorb water from the organic material, and put it back into our blood system, to be further purified via the kidneys. 

Take the Test. Eat some Sweet Corn and check how long it takes for it comes out. This can be as short as 12 hours of as long as a few days. The shorter the time generally shows a more healthy digestive system.
 

Mild hemroids may be treated by with the use of suppositories, non-irritating laxatives, and baths. One favorite method is the use of creams that shrink the skin and therefore make the piles smaller, allowing them to retract back up into the anus.  If clots have formed, or in the presence of other complications, the hemroids may be removed surgically.

Many ano-rectal problems, including fissures, fistulae, abscesses, or irritation and itching - pruritus ani, have similar symptoms and are incorrectly referred to as hemroids. Hemorrhoids usually are not dangerous or life threatening, unless severe blood loss occurs. In most cases, hemorrhoid symptoms will go away within a few days, and may never return, or be a rare occurrence. Then, you may have them quite often, and these will need attention.
 

Bacteria   -   A diverse group of ubiquitous microorganisms all of which consist of only a single cell that lacks a distinct nuclear membrane and has a cell wall of a unique composition. Bacteria are usually classified by means of Gram’s stain, whether or not they require oxygen (see aerobic respiration; anaerobic respiration), and on the basis of shape. A bacterial cell may be spherical (see coccus), rodlike (see bacillus), spiral (see spirillum), comma-shaped (see vibrio), corkscrew-shaped (see spirochaete), or filamentous, resembling a fungal cell. 

The majority of bacteria range in size from  0.0001 –  0.0005  mm. Many are motile  - self-propelled motion, under appropriate circumstances, using their flagella to swim. They also possess an outer slimy capsule, and produce resistant spores -  endospores. In general bacteria reproduce only asexually, by simple division of cells, but a few groups undergo a form of sexual reproduction -  conjugation. Bacteria are largely responsible for decay and decomposition of organic matter, producing a cycling of such chemicals as carbon (see carbon cycle), oxygen, nitrogen (see nitrogen cycle), and sulphur. A few bacteria obtain their food by means of photosynthesis (including the blue-green algae, now regarded as bacteria), some are saprophytes, and others are parasites, causing disease. The symptoms of bacterial infections are produced by toxins.

 

Although many people have haemorrhoids, not all experience symptoms. The most common sign of internal haemorrhoids is a coating of bright red blood on the stool, on toilet paper, or in the toilet itself. Constipation is characterized by infrequent evacuations, and the production of excessively hard and dry faeces. It is the straining, the hardness and ungiving nature of these stools, that not only damage the anal canal, and the many veins there, causing bleeding, but also cause the internal piles themselves.

Constant stretching and straining, over sometimes years of defecation, allow any internal haemorrhoid to protrude down through the sphincter of the anus, and lodge outside the body. This can become sore, very irritating and painful. This is known as an external, or protruding haemorrhoid.
Hemorrhoids - Constant stretching and straining, over sometimes years of defecation, allow any internal hemorrhoid to protrude down through the sphincter of the anus, and lodge outside the body. This can become sore, very irritating and painful. This is known as an external, or protruding hemorrhoid.

Symptoms of external hemroids may include a painful swelling or hard lumps around the anus, that are caused when blood clots form inside the end-veins. This condition is known as a thrombosis of the external hemorrhoid. it is this that resembles the look of a bunch of grapes and this is very disabling. 

In addition, more straining, rubbing, or cleaning around the anus may cause further irritation, with bleeding and severe itching, which may produce a vicious cycle of other symptoms. 
 

The Treatment for Haemorrhoids differs depending on the severity of the problem. By far, most of the time treatment is simple and done at home.

 

Hot Sitz baths, or Hip Baths.

A Sitz bath is recommended around twice a day and after each bowel movement for at least 10 minutes. Sit in just a few inches of warm water, and rub gently, for a few moments. This is the best way to lessen the swelling and the pain. Be sure to be gentle and thoroughly dry the skin.

 

Dietary changes

  • Drink as much water as you can, within reason. Eat more fibrous green vegetables, which will make stools bulkier, and more pliable to relieve constipation. Some constipation sufferers may benefit from increasing the amount of bran and fiber in their diet.

Stool softeners

  • Stool softeners - certain drugs or preparations,  might also help. You should be cautious though in always choosing a laxative for your constipation. If a laxative causes watery, runny stools, it can cause an infection of the haemoid.

Sitting Restrictions

  • Doctors also recommend people with hemroids, not to sit for long periods of time. Long sufferers will feel more comfortable sitting on an air doughnut / rubber ring.

  • Over-the-counter medications

    • Many creams, ointments, and suppositories are sold as pain relievers and medicines for hemroids. Whilst they can be quite successful for mild attacks,  these medications are of little help in bad cases and sometimes might even cause the hemroids to take longer to heal. Always consult your doctor.

Medical Treatment

  • Thrombosed Hemroids

    • If you develop a hemorrhoid with a clot - a Thrombosed Hemorrhoid, you will feel some pain. If the pain is not severe and the swelling is not too much, many times the doctor can treat you with hot Sitz baths, and the bulking up the stools. This will allow some dispersal and some relief. If the pain is intolerable or the swelling is acute, it might be necessary to remove the blood clot / Hemorrhoid. This procedure can sometimes be done in a doctor's office or in an ER, but must not be attempted at home, due to possible grave blood loss. Before the clot is removed, the hemorrhoid is made numb with a local anesthetic. After the area is numb, the doctor will make a small cut in the hemorrhoid to remove the blood clot, or remove the Hemorrhoid itself, if it is clearly a vein-end. You will be started on Sitz baths at home, and any dressing should be removed when you take your first one about 6-12 hours after the clot has been removed. Almost everyone has great relief of their pain after the clot is removed,  and will require generic pain-killers during the interim. 

Rectal prolapse occurs when part or all of the wall of the rectum slides out of place, sometimes protruding out of the anus. See this illustration of rectal prolapse..

  • Prolapsed internal hemroids

    • If you have prolapsed internal hemroids, which you are unable to push back yourself, then your doctor may need to reduce them. Sometimes your doctor or nurse  is able to gently push the hemroids back into place. If the hemroids are too swollen though, then you may need a surgical procedure. If the hemroids remain swollen and trapped through the anus and nothing is done, then this vein will not receive enough blood, and start to die. If this occurs, it will eventfully become infected, and the infection can spread throughout the blood, making you very sick. 

Illustration of rectal prolapse

  • Surgery 

  • If you have continued bleeding, and hemroids that cannot be pushed back, uncontrollable pain, and severe rectal itching, surgery is required to cure this problem. The surgeon can inject the hemroids with a drug that drastically shrinks them, or even place small rubber bands around the hemroids to cut off the blood supply, thus allowing them to die off in a controlled manner. Less commonly used treatments are cryo-therapy in which the hemorrhoid is essentially frozen off, or laser therapy, in which the hemorrhoid is burned off, cauterizing the ends. Sometimes, it is necessary for the surgeon to actually cut the hemroids off. In this case you will need to be put to sleep or have a spinal anaesthetic.

 

Blood cells

There are a number of different cell types in circulation in the blood stream. Here's a quick review:

Red cells carry oxygen to the cells of the body. They are essentially bags of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrying molecule. Hemoglobin binds oxygen to iron atoms, which give the hemoglobin and thus the cells their distinctive red color.

 

White cells (neutrophils) are of several types:

 

Polymorphonuclear cells, or "polys" for short, fight bacterial infections by engulfing bacteria and digesting them. They form PUS and are the chief ingredient of an abscess.

Lymphocytes are the virus killers. There are two types of these:

T-cells which remember what germs we've been exposed to and how to kill them. T-cells are the key component of the immune system that is missing in AIDS.

 

T-Cells and Platelets - One White Cell - Several Red.

B-cells that secrete the actual antibodies that attach to viruses and bacteria and identify them as things to be destroyed - rather like tagging the target with a laser so that the smart bomb will home in and blast the target.

Monocytes are cells that are related to lymphocytes but have a killing and cleaning function. They cruise through the tissues of the body cleaning up debris and killing any bacteria they find. They are often increased in viral infections - a reassuring finding that your doctor may note on your child's blood count.

Eosinophils are cells which are strongly related to allergy and the recognition of foreign things in the body like parasites.

Basophils are cells that are also part of the allergy and parasite recognition system.

Platelets are the cells that plug leaks in the vascular system, the clotting cells.

Prion - An an infectious protein particle called a Prion or Prion Protein. These prions appear to have the ability to recruit other normal proteins and induce them to alter their structure to become more prions, that act as vehicles of infection. This is quite different from other infectious diseases, commonly caused by bacteria or viruses. Prions are not a genetic.

NEW ICE-AGE BY 2080 - READ IT HERE ! ! MITES - Any of about 20,000 species of tiny arthropod invertebrates belonging to the subclass Acari - sometimes Acarina, or Acarida, of the class Arachnida. Mites live in varied habitats: in brackish water, in fresh water, in hot springs, in soil, on plants, and as parasites on and in animals. Parasitic forms may live in the nasal passages, lungs, stomach, or deeper body tissues of animals. Some mites are carriers of human and animal diseases. Plant-feeding mites cause damage by feeding on leaf tissues or by transmitting viral diseases. Mites are small, often microscopic in size—the smallest being about 0.1 mm (0.004 inch) in length and the largest being about 6 mm (0.25 inch)—and they usually have four pairs of legs. In general, they breathe by means of tracheae, or air tubes; in many species, however, respiration takes place through the skin ASTEROIDS - also called minor planet, or planetoid, any of a host of small rocky bodies, about 1,000 km or less in diameter, that orbit the Sun primarily between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It is because of their small size and large numbers relative to the nine major planets that asteroids are also called minor planets. The two designations are frequently used interchangeably, though dynamicists, astronomers who study individual objects with dynamically interesting orbits or groups of objects with similar orbital characteristics, generally use the term minor planet, whereas those who study the physical properties of such objects usually refer to them as asteroids. ANTS - any member of the approximately 8,000 species of the insect family Formicidae - order Hymenoptera. Ants occur worldwide but are especially common in hot climates. All ants are social in habit; i.e., they live together in organized colonies, and they range in size from 2 to about 25 millimeters, about 0.08 to 1 inch. Their color is usually yellow, brown, red, or black. A few genera, e.g., Pheidole of North America, have a metallic luster. AIDS - Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome, a fatal transmissible disease of the immune system, caused by the Human Immuno-deficiency Virus - HIV. Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome was allegedly first recognized in Zaire, in 1976. Three thousand acres of life-giving plants are still eaten away by some circumstance every hour of every day. That is FIVE ACRES at every sweep of this clock. - CAN YOU HELP? Greenhouse Effect - An effect occurring in the atmosphere because of the presence of certain gases - Greenhouse Gases - water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, and nitrous oxide, that absorb infrared radiation. Short-Wave Light and ultraviolet radiation from the sun are able to penetrate the atmosphere and warm the earth’s surface. This energy is re-radiated as infrared radiation, which, because of its longer wavelength, is absorbed by such substances as carbon dioxide, instead of passing through. The overall effect is that the average temperature of the earth and its atmosphere is increasing - the so-called Global Warming or ultimately the Global Ending Syndrome.
Forest Land - Forest covered with trees and undergrowth. Over 20% of the Earth's land-surface is forest, providing valuable oxygen, timber, and habitats for wildlife. Northern coniferous forests consist largely of pine, spruce, and firs. The World is Starving - 50,000 people die every day due to the lack of food, drugs and medical care. Sahara desert Facts - The Sahara Desert is a great desert area, North Africa, the West portion of the broad belt of parched land that extends from the Atlantic Ocean eastward past the Red Sea to Iraq. The entire desert, the largest in the world, is about 1600 km wide and about 5000 km long from East to West. The Taliban - Persian Tālebān - Students. Also spelled Taleban. An ultra conservative political and religious faction that emerged in Afghanistan in the mid 1990s following the withdrawal of Soviet troops, the collapse of Afghanistan's communist regime, and the subsequent breakdown in civil order. The faction took its name from its membership, which consisted largely of students trained in Madrasah's Islamic religious schools, that were established for Afghan refugees in the1980s in northern Pakistan Lucifer - In Christian tradition, the leader of the angels expelled from heaven for rebelling against God. Known thereafter as Satan (Hebrew: adversary) or the Devil, he presides over the souls condemned to torment in Hell. He is identified with the serpent that tempted Eve (Genesis 3.1–6) and the great red dragon cast out of heaven by Michael (Revelation 12.3–9). The exact nature of Lucifer’s sin was much debated; the commonest view is that his sin was pride. TERMITES - any of the cellulose-eating social insects that constitute the order Isoptera. Cellulose in this case refers to wood. Termites have for millions of years been eating the majority of fallen trees, dead trees and rotting trees, from all around the world. It is said that the world would be totally covered in a ten meter pile of rotting timber, if it was not for the Termite.

CULVER CITY, CA May 19, 2005 – Topher Grace has joined the cast of Spider-Man® 3, it was announced by director Sam Raimi and producers Laura Ziskin and Marvel Studio's Avi Arad. Grace will join Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, and Thomas Haden Church in the blockbuster franchise. Spider-Man 3 is scheduled for release on May 4, 2007, and will reunite returning cast members with director Sam Raimi and producers Ziskin and Arad, the successful filmmaking team responsible for the first two films. Fleas have been around for millions of years - a fossilized flea found in Australia is said to be 200 million years old. It does not differ significantly from today's fleas. Different species can be found from the Arctic Circle to the Arabian deserts - even penguins have fleas which counteract the cold by ensuring that their growth into adulthood coincides with the time when penguins are sitting firmly on their eggs, thereby keeping both fleas and their young in a warm environment! SMELLY FEET - Most of the body sweats to keep us cool, and help remove some waste products from the body. Every square cm of the sole of the foot and the palms of your hands have about over 500 sweat pores, totalling 250,000 little holes, that is more than other part of the body, even more that under the arm-pits. Hay fever An allergy to pollen, which leads to sneezing, a streaming nose, and inflamed eyes. Treatment involves taking antihistamines or, in severe cases, steroids. - ALLERGIES - hypersensitive reaction by the body to foreign substances - antigens, that in similar amounts and circumstances are harmless within the bodies of other people. World Trade Center - A complex of several buildings around a central plaza in New York City that in 2001 was the site of the deadliest terrorist attack in American history. The complex—located at the southwestern tip of Manhattan, near the shore of the Hudson River and a few blocks northwest of Wall Street—was built by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey as a central facility for businesses and government agencies involved in international trade. Until the 2001 attack, it was notable for its huge twin towers, each of which had 110 stories. The roof of One World Trade Center reached to 1,368 feet (417 meters), and Two World Trade Center was 1,362 feet (415 meters) tall. Designed by Minoru Yamasaki and officially opened in 1972, the towers were the world's tallest buildings until surpassed in 1973 by the Sears Tower in Chicago. (See Researcher's Note: Heights of Buildings.) Each of the twin towers had 97 passenger elevators, 21,800 windows, and roughly an acre (0.4 hectare) of rentable space per floor. An observation deck was situated on the 107th floor of the south tower (Two World Trade Center), and a television-broadcasting mast 360 feet (110 meters) high was attached to the north tower (One World Trade Center). Mosquito - A small flying biting insect that could be described as a type of Fly. It lives worldwide, especially in the tropics. It has long legs and a slender abdomen, Culex Forma. In most species the males feed on plant juices or nectar. The females puncture the skin with a long proboscis, to suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including Malaria, Dengue Fever, Encephalitis and Yellow Fever. The mosquito is not strictly a parasite.
Asthma is not a new phenomenon, as its recent insurgence would suggest. - Asthma-like symptoms were first recorded around 3500 years ago in an Egyptian manuscript called the Ebers Papyrus. And a word with similar roots as Asthma was also seen in Homer's Iliad. The word comes from the Greek and means Labored Breathing. The word Asthma was first used to describe an illness 500 years later by the famous Greek physician, and father of Medicine, Hippocrates. The Romans also recorded this condition and used various remedies to try and cure it. ALL ABOUT BREEDING YOUR DOG - How To Breed Your Dog Huntington's Disease is due to a dominant and faulty genetic disorder on chromosome 4.  The consequence of the fault with this gene starts around or just before middle age,  and leads to a gradual physical, mental and emotional change in its victim. Huntington's Disease was named after the American, Dr. George Huntington, as in 1872 he was the first person to document an accurate description of the symptoms and the route of the disease. - The loss of these cells causes intense symptoms and eventually death. As the condition advances, it becomes more difficult for the patient to walk and speak. Memory and intellectual functions continue to decline, until the end. By far of the majority of patients are placed in hospices for special care. THE LOUSE - also called the Body Louse -Pediculus Humanus, one of the most common sucking lice, found wherever human beings live. There are two sub-species of the common human louse: Pediculus Humanus Capitis, the Head Louse, and P. Humanus Humanus, the body louse, or cootie. The body louse is an important carrier of epidemic typhus; other louse-borne human diseases are trench fever and relapsing fever CLONE - also spelled clon population of genetically identical cells or organisms that are derived originally from a single original cell or organism by asexual methods. Cloning is fundamental to most living things, since the body cells of plants and animals are clones ultimately derived from the mitosis of a single fertilized egg. More narrowly, a clone can be defined as an individual organism that was grown from a single body cell of its parent and that is genetically identical to it.

Meningitis is an infection of the clear plasma-like fluid of a person's spinal cord and the same fluid that surrounds the brain. Meningitis is sometimes referred to as Spinal Meningitis. Meningitis is usually caused by a viral or bacterial infection; itis mean inflammation, so the infection causes an inflammation of these areas. The June Bug - Cotinus Nitida - Linnaeus - Really a Flying Beetle - " I'm coming to get you!! " - Cotinus Nitida - The June Bug, also called May Beetle, or July Bug - Any insect of the genus Phyllophaga, belonging to the widely distributed, plant-feeding subfamily Melolonthinae - family Scarabaeidae, order Coleoptera. These red-brown / green or even orange beetles commonly appear in the Northern Hemisphere during warm spring evenings and are attracted to lights. The heavy-bodied June beetles vary from 12 to 25 mm - 0.5 to 1 inch, and have shiny wing covers (elytra). They feed on foliage and flowers at night, sometimes causing considerable damage. June beetle larvae, called white grubs, are about 25 mm long and live in the soil. They can destroy crops, like, corn [maize], small grains, potatoes, strawberries, and they can kill lawns and pastures by severing the grasses from the roots. Health Problems?? We have many pages on a variety of ailments. ALLERGIES - ANTHRAX - ATHLETES FOOT - MALARIA - MENINGITIS - MRSA - SMELLY FEET - BEDBUG - Any member of the approximately 75 species of nocturnal insects of the family Cimicidae - order Heteroptera, that feed by sucking the blood of humans and other warm-blooded animals. The reddish brown, or mahogany adult is broad and flat. It is only 4 to 5 mm, less than 0.2 inch long. The greatly withered, scaly vestigial wings are inconspicuous and non-functioning. You know they are about, when you see you have mysterious bite marks - small red dots. You can also see small telltale black marks, on sheets and mattresses. Bedbugs also have a distinctive oily odor, that results from a secretion of scent from their stink glands. COCKROACHES - Dictyoptera - An order of insects comprising the cockroaches - suborder Blattaria) and the mantids - suborder Mantodea, occurring mainly in tropical regions. Cockroaches are oval and flattened in shape; some have a single well-developed pair of wings, folded back over the abdomen at rest, while in others the wings may be reduced or absent. They are usually found in forest litter, feeding on dead organic matter, but some species, e.g. the American cockroach - Periplaneta Americana, are major household pests, scavenging on starchy foods, fruits, etc. In most species the females produce capsules - the (oothecae containing 16 - 40 eggs. These are either deposited or carried by the female during incubation.
The human papilloma virus - HPV, causes several different types of warts, which are the most common type of skin infection. In some cases, the HPV virus dies within 1 or 2 years, and warts simply disappear. Verrucas, also called Warts, well-defined small growth of varying shape on the skin surface, caused by a virus. The wart is composed of an abnormal proliferation of cells of the epidermis; the overproduction of these cells is caused by the viral infection. The most common type of wart is a round, raised lesion having a dry and rough surface; flat or threadlike lesions are also seen. Warts are usually painless, except for those in pressure areas, such as the plantar warts, or Verrucas, that occur on the sole of the foot. They may occur as isolated lesions or grow profusely, especially in moist regions of the body surface. Clostridium Difficile, is now recognized as the chief cause of HAI - Diarrhea in the US and Europe, and not only in hospitals but also in nursing homes and other facilities for long term care. Initial recognition of this disease began in the 1970s, with reports of a serious, sometimes lethal colitis, characterized by the formation of pseudo-membranous plaques. The cause was identified as Clostridium Difficile in 1978.  Allergy - An abnormal reaction by the body to certain substances, including pollen, dust, certain foods and drugs, fur, moulds, etc. Normally all foreign substances (antigens) entering the body are destroyed by antibodies. Allergic people, however, become hypersensitive to certain antigens (called allergens), so that whenever they are encountered in future they stimulate not only the normal antibody reaction but also the abnormal symptoms of the allergy, such as sneezing and skin rashes. Allergic conditions include hay fever, some forms of asthma and dermatitis, and urticaria. Treatment includes the use of antihistamines and corticosteroids and desensitization. Athlete's Foot is a skin condition caused by a fungus, that typically occurs between the toes. This picture is the classic condition, and very common.

PILES - Hemroids and their symptoms are one of the most common afflictions in the Western world. In fact, hemroids can occur at any age and can affect both women and men. Because the presence of hemorrhoidal tissue is normal - it acts as a compressible lining which allows the anus to close completely. Unfortunately, hemroids tend to get worse over time, and disease should be treated as soon as it occurs. TICK - A widely distributed parasitic arachnid - related to Spiders and Scorpions, that sucks the blood of mammals, reptiles and birds, and may transmit such diseases as Typhus, Lymes Disease and Relapsing Fever. Its round body can be as small as a millimeter, or up to 30 mm long, with eight bristly legs. After feeding, the adults drop off the host and lay eggs on the ground. The larvae attach themselves to a suitable victim, feed, then drop off and molt into nymphs, which repeat the procedure. They have been compared to being similar to the Mite. An insect is a six legged creature, but all of this sized organisms once came from the same ancestor.
MALARIA - A serious, acute and chronic relapsing infection in humans, characterized by periodic attacks of chills and fever, anemia, enlargement of the spleen - splenomegaly, and often fatal complications. Malaria also is found in apes, monkeys, rats, birds, and reptiles. It is caused by various species of protozoa, a one-celled organism - called Sporozoans, that belong to the genus Plasmodium. These parasites are transmitted to humans by the bite of various species of mosquitoes belonging to the genus Anopheles . Worms, some say, have been around in one form or shape for about 600 million years. We actually share some DNA with all worms. There are perhaps up to 35,000 different types of these legless invertebrates, that we call worms. Some scurry about on the surface of the land, some live just beneath, whilst others bury themselves deep into the Earth's surface. Many live in the sea, and some have been found deep down on the bottom. Some are so small you cannot see them with the naked-eye, others are so big, they could be snakes. An Earthworm can live for ten years, living and eating in our gardens. They have no eyes, or ears and never sleep. Pound for pound, as they are made of mostly muscle they can be 1,000 times stronger than the strongest man, so next time you call a person a worm, think.
