			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you experience  low back pain, there is a high chance that tight and weak muscles somewhere in your body have taken bones out of alignment.</p>
<p>One thing anyone with low back pain needs to do is make the distinction between a dysfunction and an injury.</p>
<p>Injuries can cause back pain, including injuries to the upper limbs, shoulders, neck, spine, etc. Injuries can occur also cause back pain if the rotator cuffs are disturbed.</p>
<p><span id="more-73"></span>The rotator cuffs comprise acromion, tendons, such as the rotator cuffs, which rest at the upper bones at the arm, and connect with rotator cuff muscles. The muscles are at the top of the upper arm bones, and below the shoulder joints. Rotator cuffs are clusters of smaller muscles, tendons, etc, and attach to various parts of the body. If the tendons are torn and/or ruptured it can cause back pain. The injuries usually occur when sudden impacts or forces target the region. Exerting the muscles can also cause injury. If the tendons are damaged, it causes inflammation and swelling, which obviously creates pain.</p>
<p>Such problems are treated with rest, ice packs, compression, and elevation. Shoulder injuries are seen when the arm is thrown out of socket. The injuries occur from falls, overexerting muscles, etc. The doctor considers such injuries carefully, since fractures may arise, which start within the humerus. In some instances, surgery is mandatory to correct the problem.</p>
<p>Additional injuries include arc pain, shoulder freeze, tendonitis, subacromial bursa, acromio-clavicular, and so on. The Bursa is a sac filled with fluids that serve as padding to reduce friction. The purpose of the bursa is to make movement easy and to avert rubbing of the joints. The bursa can cause problems when the shoulders are suddenly tossed over the head. Treatment for subacromial bursa conditions, include steroid regimens, physical therapy, meds, etc, especially when inflammations sets in. The condition can cause back pain, since bursa is an assistant to the joints, cartilages, bones, and synovium. Bursa works by playing down the risks of joint damage. If bursa inflames it compresses the nerves, or tendons. What happens after is failure, especially once the joints rub. The soft pockets amid the bones that overlap and protect other bones can cause serious back pain, since inflammation has set in from bursa disorders. The tension caused from inflammation hits the muscles, overexerting these muscles, which the sensory nerves are slowed down and movement is limited.</p>
<p>Posture is the pose we receive from bearing muscles and joints. If a person slouches, often it can cause back pain, since the muscles and joints are not moving, as they should. Physical therapy and meds are often employed to correct the problem. Sitting at long intervals can also cause back problems, especially if the lower back is not supported. In fact, sitting incorrectly can bend the spine at the lower back and cause serious pain. Back pain in this nature may arrive from sport activities as well, such as heavy lifting, repeated twisting, and so on. Slouches can correct back problems by learning how to sit and stand in proper positions. The back when damaged from slouching affects the lumbar. In addition, the slouchier will need to learn correct techniques of lifting.</p>
<p>Back pain can arrive from slipped disk, sciatica, sacro-iliac, etc. Slip disks is a Herniated nucleus pulposa (HNP) disorder. Slip disks is rupturing of the “intervertebral disk.” The intervertebral disk sits amid the Spinal Columns and next to the backbone.</p>
<p>Slipped disks start at the spinal canal, nerves, gelatinous core, and finally at the disks. When the nerve roots are pressured, the disk can slip, causing herniated nucleus pulposa. Sciatica is a sort of slipped disk, since the pain sends sharp, electrical shock-like pain down the canal of the spine, sending a distressing ache that starts at the back. The pain carries onto the legs. The pain is at times intermittent, yet other times it can lead to chronic pain syndrome. Surgical procedures are often required to correct the problem.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Simply put, ‘natural skin care’ is caring for your skin in a gentle, natural and chemical-free way.. The term ‘natural skin care’ support, which allows the skin to take care of itself (without any help of synthetic materials  or chemicals). The natural skin care is all &#8216;about inculcation of good habits as a result of everyday life. Many natural skin care measures are actually the same as the general body care.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.abthealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/natural-skincare.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-76" title="natural-skincare" src="http://www.abthealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/natural-skincare-300x300.jpg" alt="natural skincare 300x300 How to Practise Natural Skin Care" width="300" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-75"></span></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s see what these natural skin care measures.</p>
<p>Well, the first and most important natural skin care measure &#8211; &#8216;Drink plenty of water.&#8217; Around 8 glasses of water daily is essential. The water helps in flushing out toxins from the body in a natural way. It helps the entire body and helps maintain good health for all organs (not just the skin).</p>
<p>General cleanliness is also an inexpensive way of natural skin care. Daily shower, wearing clean clothes and sleeping on a clean mattress / pillow are all part of general cleanliness. After all, clean skin is the key to keeping the skin disorders at bay.</p>
<p>Regular physical activity, the next thing the cards. Exercise increases the blood that helps to get rid of the poison and the organization&#8217;s management is sound. Exercise also helps to overcome stress, which is the biggest enemy of good health.</p>
<p>Healthy foods and eating habits is also recommended for natural skin care. Certain types of food (eg oily food), I can not cause acne and should be avoided as far as possible. My diet should be a mixture of different nutrients to ensure healthy food. Raw fruits and vegetables are known to the freshness of the body and help to rid the body of toxins.</p>
<p>A good sleep is also instrumental in maintaining good health and overcoming stress. As a natural skin care measure, a good sleep delays slacking of skin.</p>
<p>Beat the stress of another natural skin care treatment. Stress causes overall damage to the body and health. Drink plenty of water, getting a sound sleep and exercise has already been mentioned as stress Busters. Indulging in a warm bubble bath, listening to music and playing your favorite sport is also a good way to beat stress. Yoga is another way of beating stress, but the fast gaining popularity among the masses.</p>
<p>Avoid excessive exposure to sun (by wearing long-sleeved clothes, hat and umbrella etc), and the other natural skin care strategy. The sunscreen is also recommended if necessary.</p>
<p>Many traditional, home-made natural skin care products / measures are known to be very effective. These measures are not only natural and easy to follow, but relatively cheap.</p>
<p>In addition to the many natural skin care products are available in the commercial market. These include things like lavender oil, aloe vera, etc., which do not have any side effects.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bad breath, or Halitosis is one of the most common problems that tend to unnoticed easily. No one dare to tell you about your Bad breath in order to avoid  embarrassment.  But it can become the cause of serious embarrassment for the  vistim.</p>
<p>Causes of bad breath ?</p>
<p>Bad breath is a common health problem which greatly affects the day today activities of so many people. The offensive odor from the mouth is unpleasant to those who come in close contact with bad breathers. The problem will be doubled by psychological trauma leading to depress ion. The sufferers from this problem wil be isolated from the society. This can even lead to marital disharmony.</p>
<p><span id="more-71"></span>Literally speaking all humanbeings are bad breathres. Oral cavity contains millions  of  anaerobic bacteria like fuso bacterium and actinomyces which acts on the protein of food materials and putrifies them. This process results in the formation of offenssive gases like hydrogen sulphide,methyl mescaptan,cadaverin,skatol,putrescine ect causing bad odor. If oral hygiene is not maintained properly all will suffer from  bad breath. Most of us control this by regular brushing,tongue cleaning and gargling. Even after maintining cleanliness in the mouth some individuals suffer from offenssive smell due to various causes which has to be diagnosed and treated properly.</p>
<p>Some common causes of bad breath.</p>
<p>1) Poor oral hygiene:</p>
<p>If oral hygiene is not maintained properly the mouth becomes the seat for millions of bacteria which produce offenssive gases by degrading the food debris. Bad breath is severe in those who do not brush their teeth regularly and clean their mouth after every food. Snacks taken inbetween meals can also produce bad breath because of improper cleaning.<br />
Badbreath is common in almost all people in the morning on waking. During sleep there is less production of saliva .Saliva  has got some antibacterial properties which help to keep the mouth clean. Saliva conains oxygen molecules which is needed to make oral cavity aerobic. So the reduction in it&#8217;s quantity during sleep makes a favourable condition for anaerobic bacteria.</p>
<p>2) Food habits:</p>
<p>The main cause of bad smell is due to degradation of protein by the bacteria and hence all food products rich in protein favours bad breath. Meat,fish,milk products, eggs,cakes,nuts,pear and ect can cause bad breath. Some food articles can produce particular type of smell which may be unpleasent. Raw onion can produce typical bad smell. It is said that an apple a day keeps the doctor away,a raw onion a day keeps everybody away. Eating groundnuts can also produce bad smell. However if proper cleaning is done smell can be reduced irrespective of the nature of food.  Irregularity in timing of food can also produce bad breath. Small food articles taken in between the meals can also produce bad smell.</p>
<p>3) Biofilm:</p>
<p>There is formation of a thin sticky coating  called biofilm on the tongue and oral mucosa. This coating is thick on the posterior aspect of the tongue where millions of gram negative bacteriae are seen .The thick coating on the tongue is always associated with badbreath. Even a  thin biofilm can make anaerobic condition favourable for bacterial proliferation.</p>
<p>4) Dental caries:</p>
<p>This is a destructive process causing decalcification with distruction of enamel and dentine resulting in cavitisation of the tooth. These are produced mainly by the lactobacilli . Food particles are deposited inside these cavities and are putrified by the anaerobic bacteria producing bad smell. Normal brushing will not remove the food debris easily and hence they are putrified completely. Caries are common in schoolgoing children and in those who donot maintain proper oral hygiene .Calcium and vitamin deficiency can also predispose caries.</p>
<p>5) Gingivitis:</p>
<p>Gum is a mucus membrane with supporting connective tissue covering the tooth bearing borders of the jaw .The main function of gum is protection .Gingivitis is the inflammation of the gum .Due to various causes gum tissue get infected resulting in swelling,pain and discharge. If the condition become worse the infection spread towards peridontal area leading to continuous discharge called pyorrhoea. Some times the infection goes deep producing alveolar abscess with discharge of pus. Infection can even reach the bone causing osteomyelitis.All these conditions can produce offenssive smell.</p>
<p>6) Gum retraction:</p>
<p>When the gums retract from the teeth a gap is developed which will lodge food particles and cause bad breath.</p>
<p>7) Dental plaques and tartar deposits; Plaques and tartar is deposited mainly in the gaps  between the teeth and gum. This will provide shelter for the food debris and bacteria causing  bad breath.</p>
<p> <img src='http://www.abthealth.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' title="All You Need to Know About  Bad Breath " /> Ulcerative lesions&amp; coatings:</p>
<p>Almost all ulcerative lesions of the mouth are associated with bad breath. These lesions may be caused by bacteria,viruses,food allergies or due to autoimmune disorders. Apthous ulcer is the commonest amoung ulcerative lesions. Others are herpes,fungal infections,vincents angina,infectious mononucleosis,scarlet fever,diphtheria,drug reactions  and ect. Cancerous ulcers produce severe bad breath. All fungal infections produce white coating(candidiasis). Leucoplakia is a white thick patch on the mucus membrane of the mouth &amp; tongue. It is considered as a precancerous condition. Offenssive breath is associated with these conditions.</p>
<p>9) Diseases of the salivary glands:</p>
<p>Saliva is very useful to supply oxygen to all parts of the oral cavity. Even a thin film of coating called biofilm can provide an anaerobic condition in the mouth. Saliva can wet these layers and make an aerobic condition which is unfavourable for the bacteria .Any condition which reduces the production of saliva can increase bacterial activity.  Some times the salivary duct is obstructed by stones or tumors.Cancer of the salivary gland is associated with offenssive odor. In suppurative parotitis purulant dischrge in to the mouth causes bad breath.</p>
<p>10) Tonsillitis:</p>
<p>Tonsils are a pair of lymphoid tissue situated  in the lateral wall of oropharynx. Inflammation of the tonsil is called tonsillitis. Bad breath is seen in both acute and chronic tonsillitis. Quinsy or peritonsillar abscess can also produce bad breath.</p>
<p>11) Tonsillar plaques &amp; tonsillar fluid:</p>
<p>If bad breath persists even after maintaining proper oral hygeine there is possibility of this condition. Serous fluid secreated from the folds of tonsil is very offenssive. Some patients complain that they hawk some cheesy materials from the throat;which are very offenssive in nature. These are formed inside the tonsillar crypts which contain thousands of bacteriae. In such conditions tonsillectomy gives noticiable relief from bad breath.</p>
<p>12) Pharyngitis&amp; pharyngial abscess:</p>
<p>Pharynx is a fibromuscular tube which forms the upper part of the digestive &amp; respiratory tract. Inflmmation of the pharynx is called pharyngitis, caused mainly by bacteria and viruses. Bad breath is present in pharyngitis along with other signs like cough and throat irritation. Abscesses in the wall of pharynx can also produce offenssive discharge of pus in to the throat.</p>
<p>13) Dentures:</p>
<p>Denture users may complain about bad smell due to lodgement of small food debris in between. Proper brushing may not be possible in denture users especially fixed dentures.</p>
<p>14) Tobacco:</p>
<p>Tobacco chewing is associated with bad breath. The smell of tobacco itself is unpleasent for others. Tobacco can irritate the mucus membrane and cause ulcers and coatings. Gingivitis and pyorrhoea are common in tobacco chewers. Tartar is deposited on the teeth mainly near the gums. Tobacco chewers get gastric acidity with eructations. All these causes offenssive smell.</p>
<p>15) Smoking:</p>
<p>Smokers always have  bad smell. It can also produce lesions in the mouth &amp; lungs causing bad breath.Smoking increases carbon dioxide in the oral cavity &amp; reduces oxygen level,causing a favourable condition for bacteria. Smoking reduses appetite &amp; thirst hence acid peptic disease is common in chain smokers.</p>
<p>16) Lesions in the nose &amp; ear:</p>
<p>Bad breath is occasionally seen in sinusitis(infection of para nasal sinuses). In case of post nasal dripping bad breath is common due to the presence of protein in the discharges. These proteins are degraded by the bacteria. Infection in the middle ear with discharge of pus in to the throat through the eustachian tube(passage from middle ear to the throat)can also cause offenssive odor. Chronic rhinitis(infection of mucus membrane of nose) and forign bodies in the nose can also produce bad smell in the expired air.</p>
<p>17) Diabetes mellitus:</p>
<p>Mostly all diabetic patients suffer from bad breath. Coated tongue,ulcers &amp;coatings in the mouth ,increased sugar level in tissues ect are responsible for bad breath.Bacterial growth in diabetic patient is very faster than non diabetic individuals.</p>
<p>18) Fevers:</p>
<p>Bad breath is common in almost all fevers. Even an acute fever can produce bad breath. Severe bad breath is seen in typhoid .Other infectious diseases like Tuberculosis , AIDS ect produce bad smell.</p>
<p>19) Fasting &amp; dehydration:</p>
<p>Dry mouth favours bacterial activity. So any condition which produce dryness in the mouth makes the breath offenssive. Eventhough the food particles are known to produce bad breath, fasting can also produce the same. Production of saliva is also reduced during fasting. Chewing and swallowing also helps to keep the mouth clean.</p>
<p>20) Bedridden patients:</p>
<p>Bedridden patients suffer from offenssive breath due to thick coating on the tongue. water intake is also limited in these patients. Regurgitation of food aggravates the condition. Since they talk less aeration in the oral cavity is reduced which favours anaerobic bacteria to become active.</p>
<p>21) Diseases of stomach &amp; esophagus:</p>
<p>Eructation of gas and food produce unpleasent smell. Abnormality in the function of lower sphincter can allow the food to regurgitate upwards causing bad breath. Bad breath is also common in gastritis,gastric ulcer and cancer of stomach.</p>
<p>22) Intestinal diseases:</p>
<p>Bad breath is common in patients suffering from ulcerative lesions of intestine like ulcerative collitis..Other diseases are malabsorption syndrome intestinal tuberculosis, peritonitis ect.</p>
<p>23) Diseases of lungs:</p>
<p>Lung diseases like pneumonia, lung abscess,chronic bronchitis,bronchiectasis,tuberculosis, lung cancer ect can produce bad odor during expiration.</p>
<p>24) Liver disorders:</p>
<p>Liver diseases like hepatitis, cirrhosis,can  cause bad breath.Gall bladder diseases with vomiting also causes unpleasent odor.</p>
<p>25) Psychiatric  patients:</p>
<p>Bad breath is common in psychotic patients due to poor hygiene,irregular food habits,less water intake and ect.</p>
<p>26) Somatisation disorder:</p>
<p>This is a psychiatric disorder charecterised by the presence of a physical symptom that suggest a medical illness .These patients come with physical complaints like pain,nausea difficult respiration, bad smell ect. This condition is diagnosed after detailed examination of the patient with all investigations.Since this is a psychiatric disorder it has to be managed with a psychological approach.</p>
