What causes Diarrhoea? - 2

People of all ages can get Diarrhoea and the average adult has a bout of acute Diarrhoea about four times a year. In the United States, each child will have had seven to 15 episodes of Diarrhoea by age 5.

What causes Diarrhoea?

Acute Diarrhoea is usually related to a bacterial, viral, or parasitic infection. Chronic Diarrhoea is usually related to functional disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease.

A few of the more common causes of Diarrhoea include the following:

Bacterial infections. Several types of bacteria consumed through contaminated food or water can cause Diarrhoea. Common culprits include Campylobacter, Salmonella, Shigella, and Escherichia coli (E. coli).

Viral infections. Many viruses cause Diarrhoea, including rotavirus, Norwalk virus, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, and viral hepatitis.

Food intolerance. Some people are unable to digest food components such as artificial sweeteners and lactose-the sugar fauna in milk.

Parasites. Parasites can enter the body through food or water and settle in the digestive system. Parasites that cause Diarrhoea include Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, and Cryptosporidium.

Reaction to medicines. Antibiotics, blood pressure medications, cancer drugs, and antacids containing magnesium can all cause Diarrhoea.

Intestinal diseases. Inflammatory bowel disease, colitis, Crohn's disease, and celiac disease often lead to Diarrhoea.

Functional bowel disorders. Diarrhoea can be a symptom of irritable bowel syndrome.

How to get cured of diarrhoea - 1

Diarrhoea is a common problem that usually resolves on its own. However, it could be dangerous if a person becomes dehydrated. Causes of Diarrhoea include viral, bacterial, parasitic infections, food intolerance, reactions to medicine, intestinal diseases, and functional bowel disorders. Treatment involves replacing lost fluid and electrolytes. Depending on the cause of the problem, a person might also need medication to stop the Diarrhoea or treat an infection. Children may need an oral rehydration solution to replace lost fluid and electrolytes. Call the doctor if the person with Diarrhoea has severe pain in the abdomen or rectum, a fever of 102 degrees or higher, blood in the stool, signs of dehydration, or Diarrhoea for more than 3 days.

To know more about Diarrhoea and its causes just take a look at here...

What is Diarrhoea?

Diarrhoea is loose, watery stools. A person with Diarrhoea typically passes stool more than three times a day. People with Diarrhoea may pass more than a quart of stool a day. Acute Diarrhoea is a common problem that usually lasts 1 or 2 days and goes away on its own without special treatment. Prolonged diarrhoea persisting for more than 2 days may be a sign of a more serious problem and poses the risk of dehydration. Chronic Diarrhoea may be a feature of a chronic disease.

Diarrhoea can cause dehydration, which means the body lacks enough fluid to function properly. Dehydration is particularly dangerous in children and older people, and it must be treated promptly to avoid serious health problems.

An open letter to all young mom

Our children are our pride: we get immense pleasure to witness each development and never tire of talking about their milestones. While pictures and videos keep alive these moments, nothing can really be as vivid as the memories that we moms store away in our hearts. Starting this week, we introduce this new column to you, our readers. Send us a mood picture of your child with a caption of your choice and we will print it here. Let us share the beauty of the lovely moments with each other.

I am not a mother and I will be the first to admit that I really don't possess a maternal bone in my body.

And even though I have never walked in your shoes, I have a deep, abiding respect for what you do. I know how difficult motherhood is and I know that with all its dilemmas and sacrifices, it's also extremely rewarding. It is also extremely important.

You just shape young minds. You are the first interaction children have with other human beings; with life, nurturing, education, values, manners, with love and affection. Therefore, I must ask, what is it with some young mothers these days?

A few days ago, I was in a mall shopping for sundries, but my experience was sullied by a screaming child. Not just the occasional outburst, this was incessant shrieking. The phrase, "plaintive wail" comes to mind. I made my way over the Men's Department to take a peek at this erstwhile junior banshee.

It was a little girl, strapped in the trademark red shopping cart; her older brother frantically kicking at a display of folded T-shirts as the norm, blithely ignoring her obnoxious charges, rifled through a sale bin.

She was either unable to hear the decibels with which her daughter was screaming or willfully chose to ignore the situation. I looked for any obvious sign of discomfort. None that I could see.

Did the child have a disability that was discernible? Again, nothing that I could see. All indications pointed to this being nothing more than a very unruly little girl, undisciplined, unattended and futile demanding attention.

The young mother did nothing to quiet or comfort the child, at least she did nothing during the excruciating 12.7 minutes that I had to spend in the department next to them. The child was loud, annoying and extremely bothersome. I shook my head; another shopper covered his ears. Yet, the young mom seemed oblivious to everything.

Sadly, I have seen this scene repeated many times. So, my question is how could this happen? Why does this happen?

When I was a child, I would have NEVER acted this way and certainly had I, the situation would have been handled efficiently. The fear of my mother's pinch or slap was, as had, if not worse than the actual physical contact. Then there was the fear of the dreaded "you just wait till we get home" spanking.

I cannot say every young mother is guilty of this, but obviously, when a young child is screaming, a basic knowledge of biology and gynecology will tell you that a younger mother is usually part of the equation.

Additionally, I do not know what was coursing through this particular young mother's mind; why she allowed her child to scream without blinking an eye, but from the perspective of my incredibly victimized ears, I would think her completely selfish. She showed an utter lack of consideration for the shoppers around her. I would go one step further and say she showed utter disdain for everyone in the store.

I do not understand this at all. What happened to respect? Is good taste now passe? Has breeding just become another word for procreation? Now, permit me to reiterate that I understand the plight of all you young mothers. You are tired, you are frustrated and probably completely unappreciated for all your efforts, but does that negate appropriate displays of manners, tact and diplomacy?

The reality is this - young children, especially unruly ones, have no business being in public. Parents have no right to foist ill-mannered children on the populace. Sorry, but this is true.

Young, unruly children should not be in nicer restaurants. Young children have no business in theaters, especially during movies not geared for kids. And DO NOT tell me that sometimes children misbehave because they feel bad. I understand this, but if that is in fact the case, why then are they out in public and not at home?

And furthermore, if you have no other recourse than to take your child with you, then you should have the sense to train ...yes, I said TRAIN your children to behave correctly and respectfully in public. If they do not and their behavior is disruptive in any way and you as a parent refuse to handle the situation either by calming or removing them from the premises, then you should be held responsible and fined exorbitantly for disturbing the peace.

Calcium may significantly improve kid's bone health

The new findings show that for those children who have inadequate calcium intake, increasing dietary calcium has a significant impact on bone development.

A study has found that higher intakes of calcium may significantly improve bone health in children. To determine how the intake of dietary calcium affects bone mineral content (BMC) - a marker for bone strength - in children, researchers used an evidence-based approach to assess data from 21 randomized clinical trials with more than 3,800 children.

Statistically pooled data revealed that those kids who had inadequate calcium consumption prior to the start of these studies experienced a substantial increase in their total body BMC that was approximately 25 times greater than children who already consumed adequate amounts of calcium.

Equally important, the study suggests the existence of a calcium threshold for bone health, that is, the level of calcium intake that triggers a significant effect.

"Dairy and other foods that are rich in calcium are thought to be important for the growth and strengthening of bones in children and adolescents," said Michael Huncharek, Director of the Meta-Analysis Research Group and lead author of the study. "In the US, dairy products tend to be the preferred source of calcium since diets that exclude dairy are often deficient in this important nutrient" he added.

Just get name meaning of your baby

Boy or Girl - we people always in the perception that everyone calls them by their unique names that we have given to our baby. Yeah! We people are always looking for a cool and delightful name for a baby boy of girl. But the problem is, we could not get all-exclusive name meaning that has full of potential with its description at one place? Is there any way to get it easily?

Parents, now there is no need to worry about it; because I have found a comprehensive website named "NamesPedia.com". Yeah! It is the source that helps you in the selection of name meaning for your baby boy or girl. This is only one ideal website for all parents and also for all those people who are in search of meanings for names. Just get your expected result with this interactive website.

What's wrong with baby? Yeah! They are crying!

Babies cry. There is no way to avoid it. It can be difficult at first, but you will soon learn to anticipate her needs, and wipe away her tears. Here are the most common reasons baby's cry.

If your little one is wailing, work your way down the list and chances are you will find something that helps.

She is hungry:

Once you learn to recognize the signs that your baby wants to cat - she will fuss, make noises, and root around for your breast if you pick her up - you will get pretty good at feeding her before she starts to really cry. Until then, checking to see if she is hungry is a good first step when your baby cries. Food might not stop her crying right away, but let her keep eating if she wants to. She will stop once her stomach is full.

She needs a fresh diaper:

Some babies let you know right away when they need to be changed. Others do not mind when their diapers are soiled - it's warm and comfortable to them. (Parents are often surprised when they pick up their infant and find she's been sitting in a dirty diaper and never made a sound.) Either way, this one is easy to check and simple to remedy.

She is too cold or hot:

Newborns like to be bundled up and kept warm. (As a rule, they need to be wearing one more layer than you need to be comfortable.) So when your baby feels cold, like when you remove her clothes to change her, she will express her discomfort by crying. You will learn how to quickly change a diaper and wrap your baby back up. Be careful that you do not overdress her, since she is less likely to complain about being too warm than about being too cold and won't cry about it as vigorously.

She wants to be held:

Babies need a lot of cuddling. They like to see their parents' faces, hear their voices, and listen to their heartbeats, and can even detect their unique smell (especially Mom's milk). After being fed, burped, and changed, many babies simply want to be held. You may wonder if you will "spoil" your child by holding her so much, but during the first few months of life that is not possible.

Infants vary a lot in how much they want to be held. Some demand a lot of attention, while others can spend long periods of time sitting calmly by themselves. If your baby likes the attention, pick her up, wear her in a front carrier or sling, or place her next to you.

She cannot take it anymore:

While newborns often thrive on attention, they can easily become overstimulated and have a meltdown. You may find that your baby cries longer than usual after spending a holiday with many adoring family members or has periods at the end of each day when she seems to cry for no reason.

Newborns have difficulty processing all the stimulation they receive - the lights, the noise, being passed from hand to hand - and can become overwhelmed by too much activity. Crying is their way of saying, "I have had enough." This usually happens when your baby is tired. Take her somewhere calm and quiet and let her vent for a while, and then see if you can get her to sleep.

She does not feel good:

If you have just fed your baby and checked that she's comfortable (she can be troubled by something as subtle as a hair wrapped around her toe or a clothing tag that's poking her), but she is still crying, consider checking her temperature to make sure she is not ill. The cry of a sick baby tends to be distinct from the hunger or frustration cry, and you will soon learn when your baby's cries "just don't sound right" and she needs to be taken to the doctor.

None of the above:

Sometimes you might not be able to figure out what is wrong. Many newborns develop periods of fussiness when they are not easily soothed. These fussy periods can range from a few minutes of crying to full-blown colic. Colic is defined as inconsolable crying for at least three hours a day and at least three days a week.

Even if your baby is not crying this much, these episodes may be difficult for you.

Adults too can suffer from Whooping Cough

Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is not just restricted to childhood, but may infect one at any age. But the risk of a pertussis infection can be greatly reduced by vaccination, as Marion Riffelmann of Krefeld Institute for Infectious Diseases in Germany and her colleagues have found in their study. Their findings have appeared in the current edition of Deutsches Arzteblatt International.

Pertussis is actually one of the classical diseases of childhood, occurring mainly in unvaccinated babies. The clinical course at this age may be severe; pertussis is the most frequent fatal infectious disease in newborns.

Nevertheless, the number of reported attacks of whooping cough in schoolchildren, adolescents and adults has markedly increased in recent years. Roughly 0.2-0.5 percent of adolescents and adults fall ill each year with pertussis and a protracted cough.

About 25 percent of adult patients develop complications, such as seizures, inflammation of the middle ear or circulatory collapse, reports Eurekalert.

Although the standard treatment with antibiotics interrupts the chain of infection, it does not influence the symptoms. Riffelmann said the most effective pertussis prevention is vaccination with a combination vaccine. However, regular boosters are needed, as the vaccination protection continuously decreases after five years.
