Nosebleeds: First aid

Nosebleeds, also called epistaxis (ep-ih-STAK-sis), are common. They happen when the tender blood vessels in the nose break. Common nosebleed causes can include changes of season, dryness, scratching, some medicines and injuries. People on blood thinners may have worse nosebleeds than do others. Most often nosebleeds are only annoying and not a true medical problem. But they can be both.

Follow these steps to treat a common nosebleed.

Sit up and lean forward. Keep the head up. Lean forward so the blood doesn't go down the throat. This could cause you to choke or have an upset stomach.

Gently blow your nose. This will clear any blood clots.

Pinch the nose. Use the thumb and a finger to pinch both nostrils shut. Breathe through the mouth. Keep pinching for 10 to 15 minutes.

Prevent another nosebleed. Don't pick or blow the nose. And don't drop the head below the heart or lift anything heavy for many hours.

If you have another nosebleed, try first-aid steps again. This time, spray both sides of the nose with a nasal spray that has oxymetazoline in it (Afrin). Do this after blowing the nose.

6 Most Common ENT Problems In Children

1. Ear Infections: Ear infections are extremely common in children (so much that some studies suggest five out of six children have an ear infection by the age of three).

6. Sleep Apnea: Sleep apnea refers to the temporary stopping of breathing while sleeping. Though it is more common in adults, children can also sometimes suffer from sleep apnea.

दांतों की सड़न – कारण, लक्षण, बचाव व उपचार

दांतों की सड़न का कारण : दांतों की सड़न एक बहुत ही आम समस्या है परन्तु यह हमरे मुंह के अन्दर होती है और किसी को दिखती नहीं इसलिए हम इसे नजर अंदाज करते जाते है।

1. खान पान: वह खाद्य प्रदार्थ जिनमे कार्बोहायड्रेट और शक्कर की मात्रा अधिक हो उससे दांतों की सड़न होने का खतरा ज्यादा रहता है, अगर खाद्य प्रदार्थ चिपचिपा हो जैसे की टॉफ़ी, मिठाई, पोटैटो चिप्स तो फिर सड़न का खतरा और भी ज्यादा रहता है।

2. दांतों की सफाई और उनकी बनावट : दांतों की ठीक तरह से सफाई ना करना सड़न को न्योता देने जैसा है। रोजाना दांतों को दो वक्त साफ़ करना जरुरी है। इस तरह से से आप मुंह मे मौजूद बैक्टीरिया की बढ़त को कम कर सकते है और साथ ही फंसे हुए खाद्य प्रदार्थ को भी साफ़ कर सकते हैं। दांतों को साफ़ रखने के लिए आपको सहीं तरीके से ब्रश करना, फ्लॉस करना और माउथवाश का प्रयोग करना चाहिए।

3. मुख में मौजूद बैक्टीरिया: कोई कितनी भी सफाई करे हर किसी के मुह में बैक्टीरिया होते हैं। परन्तु हम अपने मुख की सफाई कितनी अच्छी तरह से करते है यह तय करता है की बैक्टीरिया की तादात बढेगी या कम होगी। और अगर तादात बढेग तो क्या उनके लिए सड़न पैदा करने वाले कारक मौजूद है।

Q: Can I use cotton swabs to clean my ears?

No! It says so right on the back of the box: DO NOT USE IN EARS!

Using a cotton swab like a plunger in the ear canal pushes earwax deeper and deeper in. One problem is that if you push the wax deeper inside, there's no way for the wax to get swept out of the ear.

Also, cotton swabs can cause punctured ear drums and hearing loss. In severe cases, the cotton swab can damage many sensitive structures behind the ear canal and cause complete deafness, prolonged vertigo with nausea and vomiting, loss of taste function, and even facial paralysis.
