Lung cancer: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment

Image
A type of cancer that occurs in the lungs is lung cancer. Two spongy organs in your chest are your lungs that take in oxygen as you inhale and release carbon dioxide as you exhale. The main cause of cancer deaths worldwide is lung cancer. People who smoke have the highest chance of lung cancer, but people who don't smoke can still get lung cancer. With the amount of time and number of cigarettes you have smoked, the risk of lung cancer increases. You will greatly lower the risk of contracting lung cancer if you quit smoking, even after smoking for several years. Lung cancers can affect almost any part of the lung, but 90-95% of lung cancers are caused by epithelial cells, cells that line the larger and smaller airways (bronchi and bronchioles), which is why lung cancers are often referred to as bronchogenic or bronchogenic cancers. (Another word for cancer is carcinoma.) Cancers can also arise from pleura (called mesotheliomas) or rarely from supporting tissues such as blood vessel...

Why are diabetics more prone to COVID-19?

Image
Diabetes is a disease that can quickly slip out of control if we let our defenses down, as those of us with diabetes know all too well. We can't afford to let that happen with this pandemic around. The pandemic of COVID-19 is proving to be the main case of 2020, impacting almost every nation worldwide. A devastating threat to the world that cannot be ignored has been caused by the pandemic. For two main reasons, the COVID-19 pandemic struck fear in the hearts of nations and their people all over the world: it is very contagious, and it can kill. Fever, dry cough, fatigue, and headaches are the most prevalent symptoms recorded. In other words, the effects are no worse than the normal flu with most individuals.

If you've been diagnosed with diabetes, you understand that regula...

Things you need to know about pulmonary hypertension

Image
Pulmonary Hypertension is a serious condition that if ignored can get worse with time. Taking treatments to reduce the symptoms can make living with the disease easier.

When the blood pressure in small arteries of lungs becomes high, they get blocked or narrowed. This makes the blood flow very difficult and raises the pressure in the lungs.

What is Alzheimer's? What are its symptoms & where to seek treatment?

Image
Alzheimer`s disease, named after the doctor who first described it (Alois Alzheimer) is a physical disease that affects the brain. During the course of the disease, proteins build up in the brain to form structures called “plaques” and “tangles”. This leads to the loss of connections between nerve cells and eventually to the death of nerve cells and loss of brain tissues. People with Alzheimer `s also have a shortage of some important chemicals in their brain. Then these chemical messengers help to transmit the signals around the brain. When there is a shortage of them, the signals are not transmitted as effectively. Neurological diseases are among the most frightening diseases that humans face. Alzheimer`s is a progressive disease that means gradually over time, more parts of the brain are damaged. As this happens, more symptoms develop. They also become severe. Therefore it is important to seek medical attention as early as possible if early signs are seen. Some of the symptoms...
