When to seek medical treatment for a rash?

Rashes can occur in any area of your body or all over your body. Some rashes may appear and go away while some others may never go away. Even though some rashes may not be life-threatening, they can still be an indication of a more serious matter. In case, you see a rash and you notice the following symptoms you must consult a dermatologist:

Fever with a rash: If you are experiencing a fever with a rash, then you should rush to the emergency clinic. The rash can be due to an infection or allergic reaction. Rashes can be caused by an infection which may include measles, mononucleosis, scarlet fever and shingles.

Rash all over your body: A rash that covers your entire body indicates the presence of a more serious matter such as allergic reaction or an infection.

A sudden rash that spreads rapidly: A rash may suddenly appear and it can also start spreading rapidly because of an allergy. Allergies caused by medication is common and it can be serious sometimes. You can even go through an issue in breathing in which case you will have to visit an emergency room or call 911.

The rash starts blistering: When your rash is made up of blisters or when your rash becomes open sores, it can be either due to any internal cause, a reaction towards medicine or because of an allergic reaction. You will need medical attention if your rash starts affecting the skin around the eyes, your mouth or your genitals.

The rash is painful and infected: You must immediately consult with a physician if you are affected by painful rashes. Itchy rashes can lead to infection if you scratch it. You can identify an infected rash by the pain, swelling, warmth or crusting in the area of the rash.

Rashes come in many forms and can be due to several causes. Rashes may take up to several days to heal completely. Instead of treating your rash on your own, you must visit allergy testing centre in Illinois.

A Round of Applause for Pujara

One could have sliced the tension in the air, with a knife, that day. The crowd waited with abated breath, for the verdict and once the conclusion was reached broke into ear-drum shattering applause. Cheteshwar Pujara had scored a triple hundred, a second in First Class Cricket. The triple hundred is in fact the fifth in Cheteshwar Pujara’s profile. He had previously attained a similar number once at the Under-14 level, twice at the Under-22 level and twice more in the Ranji trophy tournaments.

The amazing feat could not have transpired at a more appropriate time- just days before the upcoming One Day International series against England. The achievement not only secured him a spot in the Indian cricket team, but also will hold his position in good stead prior to facing the Brits at the ODIs. The right handed batsman, who usually takes his own time at the crease, showed he is all serious business when he brought out his aggressive side to slam 352 runs off 527 balls, which is incidentally the highest a Ranji trophy player has ever scored. Previously he was the highest scorer of the Indian team that toured England during the summer of 2010.

Cheteshwar Pujara has always proved that he is not without mettle since his foray into the cricketing franchise. He scored his very first triple century for local side Saurashtra at the National U-14 tournament, when he was just twelve years of age. He has maintained a consistency in his game since then, which is more than what you can say for some of the so called prolific players of Indian cricket team. He made his Under-19 Test debut against the England team in 2005. He helped India to victory by scoring 211 runs. Then came the 2006 Under-19 Cricket World Cup, in which he was adjudged the leading run scorer with 349 runs from 6 innings. He scored his first International test century against New Zealand on 23 August 2012. But it was not until his ‘second debut’ that he began to be accepted as a regular in the squad.

He has also played Indian Premier League team Kolkata Knight Riders for the first three seasons. After this he was bought by Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2011 but a knee injury rendered him inactive for nearly a year. With Rahul Dravid and V.V.S Laxman out of the picture, India looks to this talented player to fill in the shoe of the next best middle order batsman.

Losing Weight: The Best Treatment of PCOD or PCOS And Infertility in Pune

PCOD Treatment in Pune

Delayed or absent periods, excessive hair growth on face and pimples, obesity and enlarged ovaries with multiple cysts are diagnostic features of PCOD or PCOS.

Excessive production of androgens by the ovaries, hyperinsulinemia and anovulatory periods are the main features of the ailment.

At least a third of the ladies suffering from PCOD are infertile. PCOD is the commonest cause of infertility, as it prevents ovulation.

Women who conceive in spite of PCOD have a higher incidence of miscarriages, gestational diabetes and hypertension, preeclampsia and premature deliveries.

Ladies with delayed periods are also more prone to develop cancer of the lining of the uterus or endometrial cancer.

They are also more prone to develop hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, heart disease and strokes.

Thus it is vital that we treat PCOD properly.

The young ladies put on oral contraceptives get periods regularly only till the course is on and then go back to being as irregular as before.

Medication like Clomifene and metformin are also prescribed to stimulate ovulation and reduce insulin resistance, but both can be naturally achieved by getting the girls to get slimmer and fitter.

All young ladies put on oral contraceptives and other fertility treatments suffer from unpleasant side effects, nausea, oedema and weight gain. Most are miserable and highly stressful during the treatment and chances of success are small.

Eating healthy, exercising regularly and losing weight is a far more assured, safe, happy, healthy and enjoyable way of overcoming obesity, PCOD and infertility. Ladies also develop much better skin and hair health.
