Diagnosing Asthma
It can be difficult to diagnose asthma, because its symptoms often resemble those of other respiratory or heart disease. The diagnosis is usually based on a description of symptoms, the set of medical history, physical examination and the results of some laboratory tests. Among diagnostic tests, include pulmonary function, blood tests, chest x-rays and allergy tests.
The pulmonary function represents a series of tests to measure lung function. The most common is the spirometry test, which uses a device called a spirometer to measure the quantity and flow (flow) of air entering the respiratory tract, then emerging. Evaluation of peak expiratory flow is another test to measure lung function. Using a peak flow meter, measure the rate at which air is expelled from the lungs. You can use this device to monitor asthma at home. Read the rest of this entry »
Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids are among the normal anatomy of the anal canal. Hemorrhoids are swelling parts – tissues with blood vessels – which could swell to the anus and leak proof air exit.

Laser Therapy : Acne Treatment
The anti-inflammatory, reducing edema and immune stimulating effects of this laser is particularly suitable for the treatment of acne.

An improved metabolism in the cells of the skin, the activation of intracellular reactions, increased enzymatic activity and ion transport in the cells normalizes the production of sweat and sebaceous glands and prevents the emergence of new pimples.

Stages of Cellulite
There is only one type of cellulite, but it can be in different stages. We have divided these into 4 stages based on our experience and research in this field.
1.First Stage
The first stage of cellulite is formed of fatty tissue under the skin (subdermalt fats). Adipose tissue begins to agglomerate and the body’s smallest blood vessels and lymph are partially destroyed so that the throughput is limited. The skin is not the nutrition it needs. Water begins to seep out of the broken capillaries. Fat cells begin to swell to 2-3 times its original size and they start to “lump” them together to harder balls. On stage one is the outer skin (epidermis) is still fresh and well-functioning, the deeper layer (dermis) is still quite functional. Still, there are no visible signs of the formation of cellulite.

Anemia
Anemia is an inadequate rate of hemoglobin in the blood. Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.
Anemia is the complete blood count, a hemoglobin below 11 grams per liter.
Anemia is not necessarily a lack of red blood cells. You can have a normal number of red blood cells, they are too small: a shortage of hemoglobin. Conversely, you can have red blood cells too big, apparently insufficient in number, whereas the hemoglobin may be normal: there is no anemia.
These parameters are identified on the blood count for red cells or erythrocytes or RBCs, or Hb hemoglobin, MCV, which defined the mean corpuscular volume and thus its size, which defined the MCH rates mean corpuscular hemoglobin, ie the a red blood cell contains about as hemoglobin.
