that's otitis externa , probably a mixture of bacterial and fungal infection based on your history. do you feel any fullness in the affected ear ? any discharge ? decrease hearing ? if yes, then have it examined right away. you'll need an anti-fungal and antibacterial ear drops for your case.

 

actually before di had decreased hearing and discharge on my left ear. cured with ofloxacin. then after a week bumalik.

recently biglang nawala sa right ear naman biglang may unting discharge and masakit siya

you have a condition that is called hematospermia, which means the presence of blood in the semen (ejaculate).

 

Blood in semen can be caused by many conditions affecting the male genitourinary system. Areas affected include the bladder, urethra, the testicles, the tubes that distribute semen from the testicles (known as the seminal vesicles), the epididymis (a segment of the spermatic ducts that serves to store, mature and transport sperm), and the prostate gland.

 

Patients with hematospermia should be evaluated by a urologist to identify or rule out medical causes.

Another Public Service Message For All MTC Peeps:

 

 

 

Do not turn on A/C immediately as soon as you enter the car!

 

 

 

 

Please open the windows after you enter your car and do not turn ON the

air-conditioning immediately. According to a research done, the car dashboard,

sofa, air freshener emits Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen- take note

of the heated plastic smell in your car). In addition to causing cancer, it poisons

your bones, causes anemia, and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure

will cause Leukemia, increasing the risk of cancer may also cause miscarriage.

 

 

 

 

Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50 mg per sq. ft. A car parked indoors with

the windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene. If parked outdoors

under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F, the Benzene level goes up

to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level... & the people inside the car will

inevitably inhale an excess amount of the toxins.

 

 

 

 

It is recommended that you open the windows and door to give time for

the interior to air out before you enter. Benzene is a toxin that affects your

kidney and liver, and is very difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.

Hello Doc,

 

tanung ko lang ubo ako ng ubo ilang araw na nakakalipas tapos bumili ako sa generics pharmacy ng carbocistien para to ease the coughing pero mukhang wala pa din ubo pa din ako ng ubo. . . . May history ako ng asthma dati at feeling ko bumabalik. Aminado ako nawala na kasi sa sched ko yung swimming activities that strengthened my lungs kasi busy sa work.

 

So ano po ba ang ma-irerekomenda niyo or i-rereseta ninyong gamot?

 

Salamat po! :thumbsupsmiley:

Increase your fluid intake and rest. Sabi nga, if symptoms persist better consult your friendly neighborhood MD for proper evaluation and management .IMHO, Cough is only a symptom of a disease and you need to treat the disease for you to get well.

some health tips for all MTC peeps :

 

 

THE CORRECT WAY OF EATING FRUITS

 

We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it, and just popping it into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how, and when to eat.

 

What is the correct way of eating fruits?

* IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS!

* FRUITS SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH.

 

If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss, and other life activities.

 

FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD.

Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so.

 

In the meantime the whole meal rots, and ferments, and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach, and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.

 

So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You have heard people complaining - every time I eat water-melon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat bananas, I feel like running to the toilet etc - actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach.

 

The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food, and produces gas, and hence you will bloat!

 

Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes all these will not happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.

 

There is no such thing as some fruits like orange, and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did a research on this matter.

 

If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness, and normal weight.

 

When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT From the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits, because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste.

 

Cooking destroys all the vitamins.

 

But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it.

 

You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body.

 

Just eat fruits, and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!

 

 

KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, Vitamin E & fiber. Its Vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.

 

APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away?

Although an apple has a low Vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of Vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke.

 

STRAWBERRY: Protective Fruit.

Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & prote ct the body from cancer-causing, blood vessels-clogging free radicals.

 

ORANGE : Sweetest medicine.

Taking 2 -4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer.

 

WATERMELON: Coolest

Thirst Quencher Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant > dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene - the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are Vitamin C & Potassium.

 

GUAVA & PAPAYA: Top awards for Vitamin C.

They are the clear winners for their high Vitamin C content . Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes.

 

 

 

A serious note about heart attacks

 

HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)

 

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...

 

Let's say its 6.15 pm and you're driving home. Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm, and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home. Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.

 

 

'HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE':

 

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly, and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.

 

However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly, and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, deep, and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.

 

A breath, and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.

 

Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart, and keep the blood circulating. . The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm.

 

In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!
