Small Cuts big Infections!


In this fast running world minor injuries in our day to day life are quite common. Children bring cuts and burns to home after their daily game. Housewives often cut fingers while their husband in hurry to run to office. In this situations we always consider these things as very minor and neglect it. We do not consider going to hospital for such small instances. But we should keep few things in mind while doing this. Whenever there is a cut in the body it works like an open door for bacteria to enter. If proper care is not taken then the so-called minor injury turns out to be a huge infection. Generally people are not totally aware of the consequences resulting in ignorance.
Lets understand this thing by a common incidence. Assume that you are preparing breakfast. Everyone is hungry and eager to run away. In this haste situation you try your best to cope up. And doing so you often cut your finger. This will cause some bleeding. Without thinking anything you clean it up with the first cloth you find near you. After this you wash the blood from your hand. Sometimes tie some cloth to it and that's all. You remove it in sometime and continue your work again. Whenever you undergo this things you do not realize how many bacteria you invite in your body.
Was the cloth used by you clean?? Does the water you used to clean wound actually cleaned up your wound?? Is it enough to this small injury??
Certainly you did not think of this at all. You should always keep in mind that the cloth that you are using should be very clean. Even a clean cloth is risky because it may look neat but you never know how many bacteria resides there. It is a good idea to keep some sterile cotton at home. Always use sterile things to deal with the cuts and wounds. Now many people know that cleaning the blood is good thing but they don't know how to clean it up. Tap water contains a lot of bacteria which can easily enter your body through that wound. So if you want to use water then again use sterile water. Again using some antiseptic for cleaning is always good. At last cover it properly with some bandage. Don't leave the wound open till it is completely healed. Lot of bacteria from air to may spoil the situation.
It is said that bleeding from small capillaries or very small arteries can clot faster in cold temperature. So now you realize if you do not care enough then the minor cut may turn into major infection. It is safe to have a small first aid kit with you. Which may include things like clean cotton, antiseptics, savlon, betadine, soframicine, bandages, few pain killers and other necessary things. You can consult your doctor for the proper kit. Moreover always check the expiry date for the things that you keep with.
Always take care for small cuts as they may turn up to big infections^
Stay healthy and live healthy..

Advantages of Water.

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH

It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven a its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases: Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.

METHOD OF TREATMENT

1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water

2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minute

3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.

4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours

5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.

6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:

1. High Blood Pressure - 30 days

2. Gastric - 10 days

7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards - daily.

This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times. It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life. Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active. This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain... For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. A serious note about heart attacks: Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...
