			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-396" title="bladder infection" src="http://www.mylasiciliana.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/bladder-infection.jpg" alt="bladder infection" width="248" height="293" />Bladder infections are considered very serious point that they have an effect on the bladder or spread of kidney and prostate. Especially suitable for bladder infections are people with a history of urinary tract obstruction, such as kidney stones are found or an enlarged prostate. In addition, women in the age of twenty hours and fifty are more likely to suffer from this infection.</p>
<p>There are home remedies that must be taken to enable them to remove the bladder infection. Often it is assumed that consumption of barley, lemon juice, calendula, nettle, thyme, marshmallow, milk, corn, lady&#8217;s finger, the juice of watermelon, onions, cabbage, garlic, pomegranate juice, orange, pineapple, banana peel, yogurt, parsley and plenty of water, etc. This may reduce bladder infections.</p>
<p>In addition, the use of cucumber juice is the most important are the benefits in the treatment of cystitis. The patient must have a glass of fruit juice mixed with two teaspoons of honey. It is recommended that the patient receives a tablespoon of fresh lime juice, three times a day.</p>
<p>Another valuable resource for this disease is the use of oil of sandalwood. The patient should be administered in doses of five drops gradually at first, and this dose may be increased to 10-30 drops. The patient may also cold and hot compresses for the treatment of cystitis.</p>
<p>Avoid alcohol, coffee and tea drinks containing caffeine, as it is you who should be prohibited. Protecting water that the pathogen of urinary tract and the urine is diluted, drink plenty of water.</p>
<p>Drink the most effective way to prevent bladder infection, cranberry juice to prevent bacterial growth, and is limited to the walls of the bladder, thereby reducing the incidence of bladder infections. Another method is the use of Lysimachia, Chinese herb, because it prevents the formation of gallstones. We recommend that the patient has blended a mix of garlic juice and oil in a glass of hot water. A small amount of baking soda in a glass of water will be beneficial for the patient because it helps reduce infection. Besides, the most frequent cause of relapse of the disease slows the need to urinate for a long period, so that the patient is advised to avoid slowing down the urine.</p>
<p>Eat fruits like pineapple can be an advantage, because an enzyme called bromelain, which is trusted to make sense to reduce the urinary tract contains. Besides, the most frequent cause of relapse of the disease slows the need to urinate for a long period, so that the patient is advised to avoid slowing down the urine. In addition, maintaining good hygiene is the key to reducing disease. To prevent this disease, you must renounce the use of tight clothing, especially underwear, because it creates an environment conducive to bacterial growth.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-393 alignleft" title="lung cancer" src="http://www.mylasiciliana.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/lung-cancer-300x240.jpg" alt="lung cancer" width="300" height="240" />It is true that smoking often leads to lung cancer, the fact that 10% of patients with cancer, now or never smokers who can not be easily explained.</p>
<p>Cancer in its simplest definition is the result of a possible mutation or change that occurs in a gene. And sometimes there simply is no more (slow or prevent) a gene evolution, and no way to have inherited the genes that control. If a particular gene, the gene for the receptor of epidermal growth factor is mutated, the mutation is essential to give the green light to the tumor cells grow and divide. This situation is totally unavoidable.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, prevention of lung cancer, does not eliminate the possibility, now the leading cause of death. This does not mean that it&#8217;s okay to take some risk behaviors. They should all steps that you can control the risks in your life. Do not smoke, webbing set, responsibly and avoid drugs and alcohol, all forms of risk control.</p>
<p>The risks can be controlled</p>
<p>Although prevention of lung cancer is not guaranteed, there are ways to keep in order to limit the risk of developing lung cancer to a minimum. Consider environmental factors.</p>
<p>Probably the best lung cancer, leading to the prevention of smoking (and not later) is away from tobacco smoke as a burning cigarette and smoke exhaled preserved. Passive smoking in the long term can be just as harmful as firsthand smoke. When you inhale smoke, continue to hazardous chemicals that enter the respiratory system, although at lower levels. If you live with a smoker or spend much time with one, ask the person to smoke outdoors or in a place where you do not need to inhale the smoke.</p>
<p>Try to stay away from environmental contaminants that can cause lung cancer. These include asbestos, coal, soot, arsenic, nickel, chromium and radon. The use of asbestos is banned in the United States, but is still in the buildings and materials that were prepared just before use, was banned and in countries which have not adopted such a law. When possible, make sure to wear a mask in contact with asbestos or pollutants listed above and other protective measures in May taking the amount you inhale limited.</p>
<p>Can not stop moving to the periphery of lung cancer but no evidence of a link between CITES, with serious air pollution and increased lung cancer.</p>
<p>Life is full of choices, but when it comes to development decisions prevention of lung cancer that can make the difference between life and death, so choose wisely!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-382" title="hemorrhoids" src="http://www.mylasiciliana.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/hemorrhoids-286x300.jpg" alt="hemorrhoids" width="286" height="300" />With 70% of the American people being affected with hemorrhoids at some point in their lives, it&#8217;s important to find hemorrhoids treatment that really works. Hemorrhoids also spelt <a href="http://www.hemroidshemorrhoids.com/">hemroids</a> and is sometimes referred to as the &#8220;silent pain&#8221; due to peoples embarrassment to talk about it.</p>
<p>Internal hemroids are subepithelial vascular cushions consisting of connective tissue, smooth muscle fibers, and arteriovenous communications between terminal branches of the superior rectal artery and rectal veins.</p>
<p>External hemorrhoids or hemroid arise from the inferior hemroids veins located below the dentate line and are covered with squamous epithelium of the anal canal or perianal region. Hemorrhoids may become symptomatic as a result of activities that increase venous pressure, resulting in distention and engorgement. Straining at stool, constipation, prolonged sitting, pregnancy, obesity, and low-fiber diets all may contribute. With time, redundancy and enlargement of the venous cushions may develop and result in bleeding or protrusion.</p>
<p>Clinical Findings</p>
<p>A. SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS</p>
<p>Patients often attribute a variety of perianal complaints to “hemroids.” However, the principal problems attributable to internal hemroids are bleeding, prolapse, and mucoid discharge. Bleeding is manifested by bright red blood that may range from streaks of blood visible on toilet paper or stool to bright red blood that drips into the toilet bowl after a bowel movement. Rarely is bleeding severe enough to result in anemia.</p>
<p>B. EXAMINATION</p>
<p>External hemroids are readily visible on perianal inspection. Nonprolapsed internal hemroids are not visible but may protrude through the anus with gentle straining while the physician spreads the buttocks. Prolapsed hemroids are visible as protuberant purple nodules covered by mucosa. The perianal region should also be examined for other signs of disease such as fistulas, fissures, skin tags, or dermatitis.</p>
<p>Differential Diagnosis</p>
<p>Small volume rectal bleeding may be caused by anal fissure or fistula, neoplasms of the distal colon or rectum, ulcerative colitis or Crohn&#8217;s colitis, infectious proctitis, or rectal ulcers.</p>
<p>Approach for <a href="http://www.hemroidshemorrhoids.com/">hemroid treatment</a></p>
<p>A. Conservative Measure</p>
<p>Most patients with early (stage I and stage II) disease can be managed with conservative treatment. To decrease straining with defecation, patients should be given instructions for a high-fiber diet and told to increase fluid intake with meals. Dietary fiber may be supplemented with bran powder or with commercial psyllium bulk laxatives. Mucoid discharge may be treated effectively by the local application of a cotton ball tucked next to the anal opening after bowel movements. For edematous, prolapsed hemorrhoids, gentle manual reduction may be supplemented by suppositories or topical pads containing witch hazel that have anesthetic and astringent properties and by warm sitz baths. This the first treatment to make <a href="http://www.hemroidshemorrhoids.com/hemorrhoidsrelief.html">hemroids relief</a>.</p>
<p>B. Medical treatment</p>
<p>Patients with stage I, stage II, and stage III hemroids and recurrent bleeding despite conservative measures may be treated without anesthesia with injection sclerotherapy, rubber band ligation, or application of electrocoagulation (bipolar cautery or infrared photocoagulation). The choice of therapy is dictated by operator preference, but rubber band ligation increasingly is preferred due to its ease of use and high rate of efficacy.</p>
<p>C. Surgical Treartment</p>
<p>Surgical excision (hemorrhoidectomy) is reserved for &lt; 5–10% of patients with chronic severe bleeding due to stage III or stage IV hemroids or patients with acute thrombosed stage IV hemroids. Complications of surgical hemorrhoidectomy include postoperative.</p>
