How dangerous are male genital infections?

How dangerous are male genital infections?


Genital burning in men can be caused by anything from a simple allergic reaction to a serious sexually transmitted disease. In some cases, the genitals may also burn due to urinary infection.


If there is no serious problem but it just itches, then it can also be caused by underwear. Especially in the summer season, the inner clothes become wet and damp with sweat. As a result, the rash becomes infected and causes itching, burning and peeling of the skin.






The risk of infection is also higher in those who wear 'synthetic fabric' underwear.


what to do




- Cotton should be used for inner clothes. Cotton cloth can keep the genitals dry for hours by easily removing the moisture and sweat from the genitals.


- Changing underwear daily.


- You can sleep without underwear at night. By doing this, if there is a problem of burning and itching, it will give relief to some extent.


Allergic reaction


Sometimes the use of moisturizers, gels or soaps can also cause allergies. The chemicals in these products can cause itching and burning.


Therefore, if this problem occurs, it is advisable to stop these products for a few days or consult a doctor.


what to do


- If it is a chemical reaction, then the genitals and its surroundings should be thoroughly washed with warm water twice a day.


- After that, wipe with a cotton cloth and put on a cotton inner garment.


Genital dryness during intercourse


Not only underwear, genitals can also burn during sexual intercourse. This problem bothers most men who experience intense burning.


This problem can be due to lack of lubricant. It can cause not only burning but also genital pain and red spots.


what to do


- If a condom is not used during intercourse, a safe type of lubricant can be used.


- Attention should be paid to the cleanliness of the genitals.


- If there is a problem with burning even after three days, it is advisable to see a urologist.


sexually transmitted disease


Sexually transmitted infections are also a common cause of male genital burning. This problem is seen as a symptom in sexually transmitted diseases like herpes, ringworm, gonorrhea and chlamydia.


To guess that it may be a sexually transmitted disease, symptoms such as reddening, soreness, discharge of pus, pain during intercourse are seen along with burning of the penis.


The main cause of sexually transmitted infections in men is having too many sexual partners and not using a condom during intercourse.


what to do


- If you suspect the symptoms of a sexually transmitted disease, you can see a sexologist or a urologist.


- Timely identification of sexually transmitted diseases and drug treatment according to the problem is possible.


Fungal infection


Symptoms such as burning, white blisters, and frequent itching are seen even when there is growth of fungus (thrush) on the penis. However, this problem is less common in men than in women.


But lack of attention to hygiene, not changing underwear daily, wearing cold underwear and having unprotected sex with a sexually infected partner can cause fungal infection.


what to do


- If there is an infection, if antifungal medicine is used, the infection will gradually disappear along with the symptoms. But the medicine should be taken only on the advice of a doctor.


- Regardless of whether there is a problem or not, you should always pay attention to hygiene and make a habit of having sex in a safe manner.


Urinary tract infection


In case of urine infection, it can be easily recognized as the symptoms are clear. Burning when urinating, feeling full in the bladder and frequent urination are the main symptoms of urinary infection.


what to do


- Antibiotics are used in its treatment. If you take the medicine recommended by the doctor after looking at the condition, you will recover quickly.


Eczema or psoriasis


Skin problems like eczema or psoriasis can also make the penis and the area around it dry. Due to this, there are problems like itching, burning, swelling of the skin.


what to do


- Dermatologist or urologist can give some medicine depending on the condition.


- Do not bathe with hot water in this condition. And don't rub it on the skin. It can cause more problems by creating wounds on the skin.


Kidney stones


Kidney stones are small lumps or clusters made of minerals and salts that can form anywhere in the urinary tract.


Its causes are low fluid intake and frequent urinary infections, low citrate in urine, bowel problems, taking HIV antiviral drugs and scoliosis drugs, increased uric acid levels, and in some cases, stones can also occur due to low water intake.


Because of this, there is excessive burning during the discharge of urine from the urethra. Also, symptoms like lower back pain and fever are seen.


what to do


- There are different methods of treatment according to the type, size, location and structure of stones. Small stones can be treated with medication.


- If the stones are small, the patient is made to increase the amount of medicine and water. Because of this, the stones are easily washed away with the urine.


- In case of very large kidney stones, surgery or laser treatment may be recommended to remove them.


Problems with the prostate gland


Even if there is a problem with the prostate gland, there may be an intense burning sensation in the penis. Its size increases with age. When the number of cells in the prostate gland increases, the size and weight of the gland increases.


The cover or shell of the prostate gland is not so flexible. As the flexibility of the prostate gland is limited, when this gland grows, the urethra begins to be pressed, so the urine does not get an easy passage.


As the gland enlarges, the urethra becomes narrower and longer  It happens. The symptoms of which are burning urine, pain, blood in urine and delayed urination.


what to do


- According to the doctor's advice, treatment according to the symptoms, use of drugs, use of alpha blockers and other drugs that dry the prostate gland can be very effective.


- If it has been a long time and the medicine stops working effectively, or if the size of the prostate gland is very large, surgery is necessary.


- Surgery is now possible through binoculars and laser technology. So that the complexity is less.


HIV-infected sex life: how easy, how safe?

 HIV-infected sex life: how easy, how safe?


30-year-old Kiran Wali (name changed) from Kanchanpur is HIV positive. He says that his sex life has changed after being infected.


Because of the notion that HIV is a sexually transmitted disease, the society's view of HIV-infected people is different. That's why I find it difficult to talk to others about this issue," he says.






Because they are not able to openly discuss sexual and reproductive health like normal people, infected people do not have much knowledge about this matter. It is about the whole health of HIV-infected people. But Kiran says that there is not much to say about sexual and reproductive health.


He says that the sexual life of the infected person is similar to that of normal people, but because of taking drugs and having reduced immunity, the sexual desire may be reduced.




Women have to face more problems than men infected with HIV. HIV-infected women have more problems than normal women because their immunity is weaker. But there is no provision for special tests and treatment for them. Kiran says that the relevant authorities should pay attention to this matter.


HIV is a virus that destroys the human immune system. It is a microscopic virus that attacks the human immune system. As a result, the immune system becomes very weak and becomes unable to fight against diseases and infections. If it is found that HIV has entered the body of a person, that person is said to be infected with HIV.


The sexual life of the infected should be discussed


The main cause of HIV transmission is unprotected sex with an HIV infected person. But even after being infected, a person has a sexual life. Anup Adhikari, a research expert on the state of sexual and reproductive health rights, says that most of them do not know how to proceed with their sex life.


Counselors are available where infected people take ART (anti-retroviral therapy). But they do not give much information about sexual and reproductive health to infected people. Information is only given that ``wear a condom when having sex.''


Wearing a condom while having sex does not cover everything about sex. Why wear a condom? What happens when you wear it? What happens if you don't wear it? If both the husband and wife are infected, then why should they wear a condom? Officials say that information about such things should also be given to them.


Even if both husband and wife have HIV, condoms should be used during sexual intercourse. Because the virus is weak in one partner and strong in the other. In this case, having sex without a condom can cause the two viruses to mix with each other and increase the viral load. If this happens, the possibility of other infections will increase,” he says.


Infected people also have sexual desire. In this case, many infected people do not know what to do to achieve sexual satisfaction. There is not much center for counseling in this matter. Therefore, officials suggest that awareness should be spread among HIV-infected people about sexual and reproductive health.


If one of the two partners does not have HIV and the other only has it, then if two people have unprotected sex, then the child born from them may also have HIV. In this case, this may cause discord and discord between the couple. In this case, the official says that they should be informed that they can give birth to a healthy child if they pay attention to certain things and take the advice of a doctor.




A mother with HIV can give birth to a healthy baby


Shukraraj Tropical and Communicable Diseases Hospital Tekuki Medical Officer Dr. Leena Devkota says.


If the husband and wife are taking ART drugs regularly, we will check the status of the viral load. If the viral load in the body of an HIV-infected person is clinically low, the children born to infected women are healthy," she says. "An infected mother must take medication regularly to give birth to a healthy child."


If the husband is HIV infected but the wife is not infected, when they plan to have a child, the HIV infected husband should take medication to reduce the viral load. In addition, the healthy wife should also be given HIV medicine. Devkota says.


In this case, we give 'pre-exposure prophylaxis' medicine, that is, HIV medicine is given before the disease. This medicine is given until pregnancy occurs. After pregnancy, we stop giving medicine. After stopping the medicine while pregnant, husband and wife should not have any contact. In this way the mother is also safe and the child born from that mother is also safe. When the mother is HIV negative, the child will automatically become negative. Devkota says.


Children infected at birth need counseling


A child born infected at birth should be informed about it after understanding. Because some parents do not let them know that they are HIV infected. In this case, when they engage in sexual activities after becoming adults, it creates a problem.


If they come to know that they are infected after reaching adulthood without proper counseling, they may develop a sense of revenge such as 'If I am infected through no fault of mine, I will also pass the infection on to others'.


therefore Anup Adhikari, a research expert on sexual and reproductive health rights, says that parents should adequately discuss sexual and reproductive health issues with HIV-infected children.


"Parents should discuss sexual and reproductive health issues with an HIV-infected child," he says.


According to the official, the infected should reduce the viral load by taking regular medication. After that, you should only have sex with your partner using a condom. The method of using a condom should also be correct. The partner should know about his infection. It is not necessary to have a partner for sexual satisfaction, they should also be informed that sextoys (sex toys) can also be used,'' says the official.


Now there is no risk of HIV?


HIV positive was considered as a terrible infection. The disease, transmitted through unprotected sex with an infected person, was described as 'fatal'. Therefore, people used to fear that they might have HIV infection even when they get a common sexually transmitted disease.


For various reasons, it was not easy for those infected with HIV to live a normal life. What happens after contracting HIV? Can they work or not? How many live? The question would have been thrown at them. Because the infected people did not receive medical treatment in the beginning. The drug was not researched. Therefore, the risk of death due to infection was high.





But now the situation is not like that. There is no discussion of HIV infection, nor the fear of possible death from it.


Medicines are now readily available. Even those infected with HIV can lead a normal life by taking medication for chronic diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. Because of this, now the fear of this disease has decreased.




Has the fear of HIV decreased or the infection rate?


The HIV infection rate has decreased slightly. But the fear has decreased a lot. Medicines were not available when the infection spread in Nepal. Even if it was available, the other infected person would get the medicine only after the death of the first infected person.


Now, as soon as HIV infection is detected, medication is started after counseling. Medicines are started in 3-4 days after the infection is confirmed. After taking the medicine, the infected person does not get AIDS, which has reduced the fear.


According to the data of the National AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Diseases Control Center, it has been found that the HIV infection rate is decreasing in Nepal. In two decades, the rate of new HIV infections has decreased by almost 84 percent. Likewise, deaths due to AIDS have decreased by 71 percent.


Reasons for reducing the fear of HIV


The main reason for the decrease in the fear of HIV is that drug treatment is becoming more effective. As soon as it is infected, treatment is available. As a result, the number of infected people is decreasing all over the world. Public awareness about this infection has also spread well, so the number of new infected is decreasing. Even those who are infected do not reach the stage of AIDS.


Although the fear has decreased, there has been no change in the behavior of HIV infected people. There has been no change in their view. The risk of HIV infection is now higher in the age group of 18 to 40 years.


The belief that life ends after HIV infection is no longer the case. If the drug is taken regularly, there will be no death due to HIV. Infected people can also live like other normal people.


Even the infected can live a full life


Even those infected with HIV can live a full life. New HIV drugs are now available, and people who take them regularly can live their entire lives.


If one of the husband or wife is HIV positive and one is negative, then the one who is negative is given medicine called Prep. Those who are positive take their own medicine. By doing this, the child born from that couple becomes negative and the partner also becomes negative, so as many as 15 children have been born.


Symptoms of HIV infection


No symptoms may appear for five to seven years after HIV infection. Common problems such as fever and diarrhea may not be seen, so many people think that 'I am healthy, I have no health problems'. People do not think that they are at risk of HIV. During this time, he may be transmitting the infection to others. If the symptoms appeared as soon as the infection occurred, then everyone would have access to treatment.


Symptoms start appearing only after 5-7 years of HIV infection. After infection, the body is unable to fight the infectious disease, which causes symptoms such as fever, diarrhea and weight loss for a long time.


HIV is a type of virus. It attacks and weakens our immune system. When someone is infected with HIV, their body becomes unable to fight off infectious diseases. The HIV virus destroys these cells of the immune system. If the HIV virus is not treated on time, the infection starts to increase in the body and it can lead to AIDS.

How does Pantop work when eaten with gastric?

 How does Pantop work when eaten with gastric?


Acid is produced in the stomach every day, which helps in digesting food. This acid must be released from the stomach for digestion. But sometimes, for some reason, more acid is produced than required. It is called gastric.



Increased acid causes heartburn, heartburn and loss of appetite. In this case, the medicine taken for relief is pentaprazole. Pentaprazole is a proton pump inhibitor drug. This drug is colloquially known as pan top. The proton pump is the digestive juice, which is in the stomach layer. This medicine controls the secretion of digestive juices.





In what situation to use?


- Digestive problems especially when there is too much acid from the stomach or gas



- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (regurgitation after eating)


- In case of swelling in the esophagus, which carries food through the mouth to the stomach. (This problem causes chest burning, discomfort and loss of appetite.)


- Heartburn (For heartburn, medicine should be taken only on the advice of a doctor. Because heartburn can sometimes be caused by heart problems.)


- Ulcer problems


- If there is a tumor in the stomach


How does it work?


This drug belongs to proton class. When our stomach produces more acid than necessary, in that case sour belching, stomach ache and reluctance to eat occur. In this case, the work of this drug is to reduce or stop the amount of acid by disrupting the work of cells that produce acid in the stomach. As soon as its quantity decreases, the symptoms related to stomach pain will decrease.


This medicine also prevents the negative effects on the esophagus caused by acid.


How to take this medicine, when to take it?


It is a medicine that is swallowed by keeping it in the mouth with water. It should not be broken or chewed. But while taking medicine, it should not be taken on the basis of Hachuva. It is necessary to consult a doctor before taking any medicine.


This medicine should always be taken on an empty stomach. And, if you take it only occasionally, you should take a small amount.



How much to take depends on the health condition. It is a normal condition, one can be taken in the case of belching and sour water coming into the mouth. In many cases, it may be necessary to take more. Which is determined by the doctor.


In what condition should this medicine not be taken?


Women with liver disease, lack of calcium in the blood, low levels of magnesium, potassium, pregnancy and breastfeeding women should not take this medicine.


Does any medicine interact with this medicine?


People who are taking Atazanavir, Nelfinavir, Amplicin, Delaviserdine, Iron Salt, Ketoconazole should not take this medicine. Because these drugs can react with Pantop drugs and cause other side effects.


Should not be used for a long time?


It doesn't make any difference to eat pantop sometimes. But if you eat more, it can be harmful. Some people have a habit of taking this medicine when they have a stomach ache. If you eat this way continuously, it can cause problems such as weakening of bones, polyps (meat growth) in the stomach.


How fast does it give results?


This medicine starts working two hours after taking it. Its effect lasts for 24 hours. It may take up to four weeks to see its effectiveness and relief from symptoms.



This drug is sold in three forms.


– 20 mg delayed-release oral tablet


– 40 mg delayed-release oral tablet


– 40 mg granules for delayed-release oral suspension


In some cases, this drug is also given through a needle.


How to store?

How does the cockroach spread, what diseases can it transmit?

 How does the cockroach spread, what diseases can it transmit?


Cockroachs are found in everyone's house and kitchen. Especially in summer, the chain gives more pain. As the weather temperature rises, the chains in the house and kitchen start to loosen. It not only creates random garbage, but spreads diseases by sitting on food and utensils.



Epidemiologist Dr. Such chains that enter the house through sewers, basins, gardens and directly attack food and transmit disease germs to food. Sher Bahadur explains again. But if people eat such foods, people may suffer from diarrhea, cholera, typhoid fever, and viral infections, he says.


Food poisoning


When cockroaches infest food, it releases a type of bacteria. The chain contains bacteria that spread the virus called Salmonella. Its consumption can cause food poisoning and typhoid.


Allergies


Due to chainsaw, it causes allergy problem in sensitive people. It can cause skin problems. The chain produces saliva from the mouth. Because cockroaches live in the kitchen, their saliva remains on the utensils used to cook food and also on the bed. Which causes swelling, itching and burning due to allergy problems.


Infections caused by bacteria


Studies have shown that because cockroaches live in places like bathrooms and sewers and eat dirty food, the bacteria called Pseudomonas aeruginosa is present in the stomach of cockroaches. The bacteria is in the food eaten by the cockroach. When a person eats the same food, it causes problems in the digestive process and can cause various digestive diseases and sepsis, i.e. infection in the blood.


Similarly, according to the World Health Organization, the disease is not transmitted because of the chain, but it plays an auxiliary role in transmitting the disease. Apart from that, cockroaches carry the eggs of various parasites, which can cause problems such as eye swelling, itching, burning, and skin infections.


Dr. is very strong to remove the chain. Repeat. Various studies have shown that the reproductive capacity of cockroaches will increase and the immune capacity will also be strong. "Therefore, apart from easily digesting insecticides, it cannot be easily removed as the chain stays in the corner of the house," said Dr. Pun says, "But in Nepal, no study has been done on chains."


How to avoid?


The best way to prevent diseases transmitted by cockroaches is to keep the house clean. The cleaner the house is, the less likely it is to get a chain. Keeping dirty dishes clean or washing them daily, keeping store rooms, underground parking dry and clean, grocery items, dirty clothes, egg crates and other things being brought home, if you take a good look once, you can prevent chains from coming into the house. Apart from that, by closing the sewers, garbage and water sources, you can avoid diseases that can be transmitted by snakes.

For this study, the researchers collected 280 chains from 17 countries in 6 continents. According to them, the cockroach that is currently spreading around the world is of the German species. Researchers claim that its origin is in Southeast Asia 2100 years ago.


How did the chain spread?


It is seen that the chain has spread around the world through two routes. Chains are believed to have reached Western countries from West Asia 1200 years ago.

The grams of such products available in the market are different. Accordingly, its price also varies. Generally, its price starts from 200.


This is how cockroaches spread disease in the kitchen


Even after the summer season starts, one should be careful in eating. Food spoils quickly. On top of that, flies and cockroaches contaminate food. Flies can be controlled, but it is difficult to control after the chain spreads.


Especially, the chain that lives in the corner of the kitchen is also safe in places like the toilet drain. Thus it is not so easy to eradicate the chain because it is safe anywhere and has high reproductive capacity.


This is a life that has been on earth for thousands, millions of years. Chains are found in every house. Chains are found in the corners of the house. There are chains everywhere, bedroom, kitchen. Such chains contaminate food. When we eat such food, we get stomach problems. Vomiting or diarrhea may occur.


There is a possibility of food poisoning due to chain link. Apart from this, typhoid can also be a problem. Why this happens is that the chain is the main source of spreading the virus called Salmonella.


Allergies are caused by cockroaches. It can cause skin problems. Especially the chain produces saliva from the mouth. Such saliva can remain in any kitchen item. Saliva remains on dishes and food. In addition, the saliva of the snake remains in the bed of the mosquito, which causes the problem of allergies.


Cockroach stomach bacteria gets into the food. It causes problems in digestion. According to a study, the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is found in the stomach of cockroaches. It causes urinary tract infections, digestive problems and sepsis.


Chain is an enemy for asthma patients. An increase in the number of cockroaches in the house means more problems for asthma patients.


How to avoid?


-Sangla spreads very fast in summer. Its ability to produce children is high. Can't even be killed easily. Because even if its head is cut off, it can stay alive for a few days. It usually hides in kitchen corners, beds, drawers, etc. In this way, some home remedies can also be used to get rid of the hidden chains.


- The first way to get rid of cockroaches is to clean the house. A clean and bright place is not suitable for it.


- Grind garlic, onion and pepper equally. Prepare the solution by mixing the paste with water. Now put that solution in a bottle and sprinkle it on the corner of the chain. After regular spraying of the solution for some time, the problem of chain link is relieved.


- Dry and baking soda should be mixed in equal amounts and placed in a place where the cockroaches live. A little water should also be kept next to it. After eating soda, it drinks water and dies. Baking soda is harmful when it enters its stomach.


Make soap solution by dissolving detergent in water. Any type of soap can be used for this. This solution should be sprayed on the place where the chain stays with the medium of the sprayer.


How did the chain spread around the world?

For the study, the researchers collected 280 chains from 17 countries on 6 continents.


 Be it a bed or a drawer. Whether it is a kitchen faucet or a bathroom faucet, we are seeing chains. 6 Legs No matter how much you beat this worm, it will not die immediately.


Even if you kill them by spraying pesticides, they will appear again in the same number after a couple of days. Where did the chains that occupied the corners of the house originate and how did they spread around the world? Researchers have found interesting facts about this.



A recently published study showed that cockroaches originated in India and Myanmar and gradually spread elsewhere. It has been studied through chain genetics.


It has explored the thousand-year history of how cockroaches reached Europe and other continents through South East Asia. According to the study, cockroaches spread around the world by traveling with other species or people.


For the study, the researchers collected 280 chains from 17 countries on 6 continents. According to them, the cockroach that is currently spreading around the world is of the German variety. According to researchers, its origin is in Southeast Asia 2100 years ago.


Professor Stephen Richard, who studies insect genetics at Baylor College of Medicine, told the AP, "This research is not just related to one insect. It is also related to insects and humans.


It is seen that the chain has spread around the world through two routes. It seems that cockroaches came to Western countries from West Asia 1200 years ago. According to the researchers, cockroaches came to the West from bread baskets. After that, the researchers claim that the chain entered Europe from the soldiers of the British East India Company who reached Europe 270 years ago.


Researchers say that the German cockroach, a common species found around the world, originated from Myanmar or India. They say that they moved from there.


Cockroaches of the German species are considered to be the most deadly. It is found in warmer or cooler places. This type of chain is more common in bathrooms and kitchens. It infects humans with diseases such as salmonella or E-coli. "The origin of the German cockroach is a bit of a mystery," says the researcher.


If we look at historical facts, cockroaches were more widespread in Europe towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Researchers say that cockroaches are now more common in Africa and Asia.


The German chain connects with Asia. The Bay of Bengal region is believed to be its origin. Although this species is seen to have reached western countries from India and Myanmar 1200 years ago, researchers say that it reached Germany 250 years ago.


Studies have shown that its spread has increased since the 20th century. According to the researchers, the heaters used in the vehicles and the rooms and the pipes connected to the houses have further helped in its spread.

How healthy are you? It can be detected by the color of urine

 How healthy are you? It can be detected by the color of urine


Red, yellow, pink and green. Sometimes the color of urine can be like a rainbow. It can also be purple, orange or blue in color. Many such changes in the color of urine cannot be considered a normal condition.



Our body removes waste through urine. It also flushes out the nitrogenous wastes that are formed by mixing proteins, muscles and red blood cells in the body.


In addition, many other substances such as vitamins and medicines that we eat are excreted from the body through urine.


There are some elements which should not be present in urine. So, when you have a health problem, the question that the doctor often asks is, 'What is the color of your urine?'


From the answer to this question, what is the health condition of the doctor and what kind of treatment can be given? It is easy to guess roughly.


red color


If the color of the urine is red, it indicates that there is blood in it. It can cause problems in any part of the body related to the urinary system. If there is blood in the kidney, bladder, prostate or any tube connected to the ureter, the urine may be red.


Similarly, how blood is excreted through urine depends on many physical conditions. For example, what is the amount of blood in the urine? Looking at how fresh? And, are there other problems while urinating?


If there is a lot of bleeding, the color of the urine looks like 'red wine'.


Such bleeding can be due to many reasons. For example, kidney stones, cancer, trauma, any infection in the urinary tract. Even if you eat beetroot more than necessary, the color of urine can be red.


Under normal conditions, our urine looks like yellow color and orange color. It also depends on how much water we drink.


As water becomes less, the color of urine becomes dark yellow and sometimes orange in color.


If you drink enough fluids, the color of urine will be thin and pale yellow. The substance that makes urine yellow is called 'urobilin'.


Its production process begins with the breakdown of old red blood cells in the body. Those blood cells that are not in good shape need to be removed from the body system.


In this process, a compound called bilirubin is formed. It exits the body to some extent through the urinary tract and to some extent through the intestines. Bilirubin is used in our liver to produce bile that is released when we eat. This pitta is important for digestion and helps break down fat in the body.


Bile stays in the intestines and passes out through the stool. Due to this pitta, the stool looks brown in color. Bile can also be unable to reach the intestine, which indicates gallstones or cancer blocking the bile ducts. In this case, bilirubin returns to the bloodstream. And it comes out through urine.


Therefore, the color starts to darken, appearing orange or brown. If the amount of bilirubin increases, the color of the skin also starts to turn yellow. This condition of the body is called 'obstructive jaundice' i.e. a type of jaundice.


In this case, if the amount of bilirubin increases, the color of the face becomes yellow. Some medications, including the antibiotic rifampicin, can cause orange urine.



Green and blue


Green and blue colors are rarely seen. If the color of the urine is green or blue while urinating in the toilet, the person may be surprised.


If green or blue dyes are used to color any food, the color of urine may be green or blue. Eating such foods in excess can cause such urine.


Taking some medicines like anesthetics, vitamins, antihistamines can also cause the color of urine to be green or blue. Some bacteria also make compounds, which are green in color.


Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria produce blue and green colored pyocyanin.


Urinary tract infection can be seen in rare cases. In such a situation, urinating may cause burning and pain.



female stomachache because poisonous food

purple


This situation is also rare. One possible cause of this is porphyria. It is a genetic disease that affects the skin and nervous system.


The second reason for this is a rare disease called Purple Urine Bag Syndrome. Which is due to urinary tract infection.


In this case, using a catheter (a device used medically to remove urine from the body) also makes the urine purple.


pink


A small amount of beetroot can cause the color of urine to be pink instead of dark red. In such cases, urologists compare it to red wine.


There may be other colors of urine, which are not part of the rainbow. Some are dark in color. Usually brown or black. When this happens, doctors may compare it to Coca-Cola.


other diseases


The color of the urine can be brown or black, which the doctor can compare to Coca-Cola. Sometimes this color appears when muscles are broken down and converted into a compound called myoglobin. Which is a sign of a serious disease called rhabdomyolysis. Therefore, excessive exertion or the use of some medicines may be necessary.


Similarly, bilirubin can also cause black and gray color. Bilirubin makes the urine so dark that it appears both black and brown in color.


Kidney swelling

This color can also be seen in acne (glomerulonephritis). Due to this, when passing through the urinary tract, the urine changes from red to brown in color and sometimes the urine can be colorless.


Urine should not be dark yellow in color. Likewise, a large amount of thin urine can also indicate some diseases. Whether it is due to diabetes or excessive alcohol consumption.


It shows how many different colors our urine can be and how many different problems it can indicate. And, this is by no means a list of every problem.


But understanding the reason for the change in urine color will help you decide whether to drink water or see a doctor.


Is frequent urination at night a sign of diabetes?


A night's sleep acts as a medicine for the tiredness of the day. If something disturbs the sleep, there will be many problems. Frequent urination at night is one of the reasons that disrupts sleep.


If you have to go through this problem every day, it is not normal. This problem is related to diet and lifestyle, Dr. Veer Hospital's chief consultant Eurosurgeon. Ravin Bahadur Basnet says.


"Frequent urination at night can also indicate diabetes, urinary tract infection or prostate disease," he says.


Drinking a lot of water makes you urinate frequently?


Many people think that because they drink a lot of water before going to bed, it is normal to urinate a lot at night. But it doesn't always happen. This can be a symptom of diabetes and other serious problems. Vinay Bhattarai says.


If you drink a lot of water before going to bed, sometimes you may urinate frequently at night. But if there is a problem of frequent urination at night, drinking water before going to sleep or drinking too much water may not be the reason, he says.


Dr. Bhattarai continues, “Diabetes increases blood sugar levels, which puts a lot of pressure on the kidneys and they cannot absorb the extra sugar completely. As a result, excess sugar is excreted through urine, but at this time, a large amount of water is also absorbed from the body. As a result, more urine starts coming out. In such a situation, when you feel very thirsty, the amount of water increases and you urinate frequently.


In diabetes, there is frequent urination not only at night but also during the day. If there is a problem of dry mouth and frequent urination, Bhattarai suggests getting diabetes checked.


Other causes of frequent urination


Dr. If you do not urinate frequently during the day, but you have to urinate frequently at night, it may also be due to heart problems. Basnet says. "If the heart is not working properly during the day, water accumulates in the lower part of the leg while standing and sitting," he says. Makes and may urinate frequently at night.'


Frequent urination in men can be a symptom of prostate problems. As the age increases, the prostate gland increases and frequent urination occurs not only at night but also during the day.


"Urinary tract infection (UTI) due to the infection of the urinary tract, the problem of frequent urination at night also appears," said Dr. Bhattarai says, "Even if there is an infection in the kidneys, urine can come many times during the night."


He says that a woman's frequent urination at night is also a common early sign of pregnancy. He says that this problem appears when the growing fetus puts pressure on the bladder.


If you urinate frequently at night, you should first have a urine test to identify whether there is any health problem. If there is no identification from that, other tests such as ultrasound should be done," said Dr. Bhattarai says, "We find out whether there is any problem in the test. If a problem appears, it should be treated on the advice of a doctor.

How does the kidney work?

 How does the kidney work?


According to the famous medical journal "The Lancet", by the year 2019, around 700 million people worldwide are suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is estimated that more than 14 lakhs have lost their lives.



According to a national study based on Global Burden of Disease data (coordinated by Achyutaraj Pandey), 6-7 percent of the total population in Nepal are suffering from chronic kidney disease, while the death rate is two to three per million.


The kidney is an organ that filters out the excess water and impurities in the human body and sends them out of the body through urine. Each bean-shaped kidney is four to five inches long. In which there is a very small filter called nephron. Senior kidney disease expert Prof. This filter will send blood disorders and excess water out of the body. Dr. Divya Singh Shah says.


The kidney's job is to balance fluid levels in the body, filter waste and toxins from the blood, secrete hormones that control blood pressure, activate vitamin D to maintain healthy bones, and produce hormones (which direct the production of red blood cells).


Consultant Urologist Dr. Anil Pukar Sah says, 'Kidney plays an important role in maintaining the balance of minerals (sodium, phosphorus, potassium) in the blood.'




Kidneys filter about 200 liters of blood in 24 hours. In addition to removing the disordered substances in the blood through this process, Dr. Dr. will balance the amount of water in the body by taking out excess water through urine. Shah says.


Structure of kidney


There are two kidneys in the body. Kidneys are located behind the abdomen on both sides of the spine.


In an adult, the kidney is about 10 cm long, 6 cm wide and 4 cm thick. Each kidney weighs about 150 to 170 grams.


What effect does drinking a little water have on the kidneys?


The function of the kidneys is to filter the toxins in the body and remove them with urine. As the process of removing more water from the body - diarrhea, vomiting and sweating, and drinking less water, the blood pressure in the body decreases.




"When the blood pressure drops, the heart cannot circulate blood to the kidneys in the required amount, which affects the work done by the kidneys. Because of this, kidney disease specialist Dr. Nishant Acharya says.


Drinking less water in such a situation increases the risk of accumulating toxins in the body. Which also affects kidney function. In addition, there is a risk of kidney stones, kidney infection and even kidney failure," he says. "Therefore, to keep the kidneys healthy, you should drink three to four liters of water every day."


How does drinking a lot of water affect the kidneys?


As it is said, "If you eat too much of a pill, it will be bitter", Dr. Dr. Acharya says.


If you have to drink three to four liters of water daily, drinking four and a half liters or five liters of water will not have much effect. But drinking a lot of water on a daily basis puts a burden on the kidneys and can cause problems in the kidneys, he says.


A person who already has kidney problems has a reduced ability of the kidneys to filter water. Therefore, such patients should drink less water. Such people should drink water according to the doctor's advice.




Many organs of our body are active 24 hours a day, including the kidneys. Dr. The kidneys are doing their work even while sleeping at night. Acharya says.


Kidney is a careful organ. It can do what the body needs and doesn't need in a natural way," he says. "If someone goes without drinking water for a day, fasts, the kidneys manage the water that the body needs from other parts of the body."


Other causes of kidney problems


Kidney problems can happen to anyone, but people with diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and those who regularly take pain relievers are at higher risk. Similarly, if someone in the family has a kidney problem, other family members are also likely to have it. Senior nephrologist Prof. Dr. Singh says.


Symptoms of kidney failure


Pvt. Dr. Singh says, 'When you wake up in the morning, swelling of the eyelids, swelling of the ankles, body swelling, sudden weight gain, anemia, laziness, feeling tired, shortness of breath even after walking a little are the symptoms of kidney failure.'


There are also problems like bone pain, frequent urination, not much foam coming out when passing urine, and the color of urine is like tea.


Some kidney problems may not show any symptoms. But sometimes stomach ache, burning urine, fever may occur. If such a problem repeats, it may be a kidney problem," said Dr. Singh says.


What is the treatment for kidney failure?


After kidney failure, you should first go to the hospital and undergo tests to find out which stage it is. In Nepal, most of the people with chronic kidney problems go to the doctor only as a last resort.




There are five stages of kidney failure. The fifth stage is the last stage. Patients up to the fourth stage are cured by taking medicine. If it is in the first stage, it will not go to the second, if it is in the second, it will not go to the third. But medicine should be taken regularly.


But if the patient has reached the last i.e. fifth stage, dialysis and kidney transplant are the only options.

However, in every married relationship there are minor conflicts and the couple resolves them and moves on. But sometimes even small quarrels take a big form and the matter reaches divorce. If so, what should be done to prevent the fight from getting bigger? What kind of habits can escalate the dispute with the spouse?

Leaving things unfinished


Someone's habit is to start an argument about something and then suddenly become silent. But silence is not the solution. It turns out to be like adding ghee to a burning fire. If you do this, your partner may feel like you are running away. Such behavior does not only increase the problem. The relationship will not be the same as before.


Treat each other as enemies


Unnecessary fights between husband and wife weaken their relationship. But after a fight, when they consider each other as enemies, a bigger problem arises.

How to make sex life easier for people with high blood pressure and heart disease?

 How to make sex life easier for people with high blood pressure and heart disease?


Sex is a natural need. However, many people with heart problems may have a question - doesn't sexual activity put the heart at greater risk?



It is natural to have this dilemma. Because as much as other health problems are openly discussed, not so much is discussed about sex. Patients do not openly ask questions about this due to hesitation with doctors. So that it may be affecting the sex life directly and indirectly.


Does having heart problems affect your sex life?


Factors such as physical and mental condition, appropriate person and environment can make a difference in the outcome of sex. But sex is a basic need and it is not considered a taboo subject even in any disease.


It is considered safe to have sex even in people with heart problems. According to a journal published in the Johns Hopkins Medicine Organization, cohabitation is considered safe for people with heart and high blood pressure who have no problem climbing stairs, walking and running for some distance. If there are no symptoms, there is no objection to intercourse.


But during the extreme stimulation of sexual intercourse, heart rate increases and blood pressure also increases, so the heart may be under more pressure. For this reason, it is necessary to take some precautions in people with heart artery disease. But it is not necessary to stay away from sexual contact.


If the chest becomes heavy during normal swaying or climbing stairs, there may be some risk of heart attack during sexual intercourse. In such a case, after examining a cardiologist, proper treatment can be given and sexual activity can be done after consulting about precautionary measures.


Post-heart attack condition


It is not good to do too much physical activity for the first two weeks after a heart attack. After that, when the chest is not heavy while swinging and it is easy to do moderate physical activity, then it is possible to have sex. But the condition of being able to have sex and not being able to have sex may differ from person to person.




How to facilitate sex life after a heart attack?


- Husband and wife should talk about their interests and situation without keeping any distance between them.


- A healthy person between husband and wife should help each other by understanding each other's situation.


- Do not have sex immediately after eating.


- Fear should be removed from the mind. Sometimes you can't enjoy sex if you are afraid of having heart problems during intercourse.


- If the chest becomes heavy during intercourse, it may be necessary to stop the activity immediately and take medicine of the "nitrate" group. What the doctor may have said during the consultation.


- If you feel uncomfortable, you should consult a doctor.


Effects of sex on hypertension and cardiovascular disease


In people with high blood pressure and heart disease, the interest in sex is low and the male sex is not stimulated, it takes more time to get excited, and the excitement may not last for a long time. Women may also experience less interest and vaginal dryness and more pain.


the reason


Just as fatty substances accumulate in the blood vessels of the heart and brain and become narrowed, the blood vessels of the penis and vagina also become narrowed when the blood pressure increases. And, the blood flow decreases, which can decrease sexual interest in both.


Sometimes, heart and high blood pressure patients think they are weak without any reason and weaken their self-esteem, so they don't show priority in sex and cannot get full satisfaction. A condition that requires psychological counseling.


Similarly, some medicines related to heart and high blood pressure also affect sexual function. Medicines of the 'thiazide' and 'beta blocker' group used for high blood pressure can reduce sexual interest, lack of extreme pleasure, and decrease in sexual stimulation.


Studies have shown that about 10 percent of young and old people taking these drugs have this effect. Similarly, drugs such as digoxin and sparonolactone, which are used for heart disease, can also reduce sexual desire and cause pain and swelling in men's breasts.


Those with heart rhythm problems may also experience lack of sexual desire and sexual satisfaction. In addition, sexual desire can decrease in diseases such as high blood pressure, various hormone-related conditions, kidney disease, and long-standing uncontrolled diabetes.


What is the solution?


Medicines such as Viagra can be taken to increase sexual arousal. But before taking this medicine, you should consult a doctor.


Alternative medicines can be used on the advice of a doctor, depending on the age and condition of the person, instead of the drugs of the 'thiazide' and 'beta blocker' group used for high blood pressure and the drugs like 'digoxin' and 'sparonolactone' used for heart disease.


Taking Viagra can be fatal for people who are taking drugs from the 'nitrate' group. Apart from that, people with very high or low blood pressure, recent heart attack patients, kidney and liver diseases should not take Viagra.
