Aspirin appeared and used fro treatment of headache alone or in combination with paracetamol and caffeine long time back .It was very much an effective remedy.But is notorious to cause stomach problem in form of gastritis, ulcers and bleeding.Then it was not used for many years till its beneficial effect in myocardial ischaemia and infarction was rediscovered.In low doses, as low as 75 mgs per day is prescribed to myocardial infarction patients to keep their blood more fluid i.e. to prevent thrombosis.It is also prescribed in combination with other thrombolytic agents.The advantage it has is low cost and easy availability. It is said that if heart attack is suspected and nothing is found a tablet of aspirin will prevent much damage to heart muscle.The potential side effect ,gastrointestinal bleeding can be prevented by other anti-ulcerogenic drugs. Researchers also say that aspirin helps in early diagnosis of colon cancer.The hall mark of colon cancer is painless bleeding per anus besides other symptoms.the bleeding tendency is probably facilitated by aspirin. It is still the drug of choice for a very important disease called Rheumatic arthritis having much dreaded sequelae of rheumatic heart disease. So in right doses and judicious combination it is a panacea for health.
At last there is some hope that monsoon will arrive in this part of world.Mercury is a little in the comfort zone in this dawn of longest day in Northern hemisphere.So I started my walk a little earlier,to be precise at 4 AM to avoid day light coming.As I approached towards the seashore the view inside the Bay of Bengal was somewhat likened to the number of lightened flats by the ships waiting for their turn to enter the Paradip Port.I could able to count about twenty ships.But I had learnt that there were about 50 ships in waiting.In the recent past this port is bustling with activity, thanks to the deepest draft here in the eastern coast of India. En route I noticed much more lightning activity inside the Bay of Bengal.Lightning is a high voltage electric current ,occurs due to the potential difference between clouds or between cloud and earth.This could prove fatal if faced.This high voltage current may cause instant death from cardiac arrest or may cause a flash burn with and the consequences . To avoid outdoor during lightning activity is the best.But if already in outdoors run for shelter in a nearby house.Never stand below a tree , tall structures or electric poles.If inside a car one can stay safe there as ” electric field inside a sphere is zero” and does not cause harm as per “Gauss” law .This update was given to me some years back by my elder son and reiterated by the younger.If inside house prefer to sit on non conductors such as wooden furniture.Should not go near the open doors or windows and never if wearing metal jeweleries.Unplugging electrical appliances and disconnecting cables are good preventing measures to protect those from damage. AS a lightning victim suffers from sudden cardiac arrest cardio-pulmonary resuscitative measures are to be started then and there and be shifted to a near by hospital later.Flash burn victims are to be shifted to a hospital and be managed there. paradip port

Osteoarthrosis of knee a debilitating condition will come and stay with the aging process.The best way to beat it is by physiotherapy combined with on demand simple analgesics like paracetamol and etoricoxib. So-many physiotherapies are described ,but by far swimming is the best.Swimming is the most energy consuming exercise.Combined with it a little diet modification in form of negative calorie balance will reduce weight of over weights/obeses to a great extent which in tern will relieve some weight off the knee joints.
While swimming water off loads weight from knees and at the same time gives resistance to knee movement thereby working at the joints to strengthen the muscles around the joints.Strengthening muscles give stability to the joint and flexibility to movement. Do you know swimming ? If not learn the skill to-day.
Typhoid an infection by Salmonella Typhi/Paratyphi of intestinal lymphoid collection also called Enteric fever is transmitted through contaminated food and drink .There are also human carriers of the disease.The disease is characterized by fever of long duration with rigors,cough and great prostration usually fatal if untreated. Diagnosis is based on clinical and Widal test .If treated adequately it is cured .Whether treated or untreated usually in pediatric age group patient may land up in perforation of intestine towards the end of second week or beginning of third week. It is invariably fatal. I have seen patients not doing well many years back.But not seen cases in the recent past perhaps due to advent of newer drugs. Another community problem is healthy carrier status.This occurs due to inadequate treatment of the disease, the bacteria houses in the gall bladder and infects that.Here the asymptomatic patient distributes disease as makes own hands infected . That is why it should be treated adequately.It also remains viable long time in the ice/icecreams made using contaminated water.
