Constantly Getting A Cold

The tufted

The jug is a kind of
glass bottle with a fine tip which leaves a thin stream of wine
when tilted.
This makes it possible to drink from a distance, without touching the lips
and
pass from hand to hand. I declared a strike and demanded a glass when I saw how it was used
the jug. To my taste, too much like the bedpan
glass
especially when they were full of white wine.

Why the increase in asthma crisis to return to class

It is time to launch the Alire a series of ideas about the return to school or college, to know why a reality. The reality is that health services will see an increase in asthma attacks in children and adolescents, from the months of September and October and this is a why, rather. many causes that now address:

In summer, the weather, decrease asthma symptoms, and consequently lower his guard and a certain tendency to suppress the control treatment. People with asthma and his family believe that when symptoms have subsided, and asthma is cured or did not need medication to be taken daily and produce many dropouts. This abandonment of controller medication can encourage relapse.

The incidence of respiratory infections has declined to almost nothing during the summer, increasing again when esneñanza centers are filled with students and easier transmission of viral colds being crowded into classes.

respiratory viruses such as rhinoviruses and common cold viruses are present in the mucus of the students and these viruses are responsible for the reactivation of the symptoms of asthma, since they are direct triggers. It is estimated that 80 percent of asthma exacerbations in childhood and adolescence may be associated with infection prior respiratory viruses.

In the summer months the school has been closed and the possibility of more dust when cleaning or have been used irritants to the airways, with the risk of asthma attack.

In September starts to increase humidity to improve the conditions for the proliferation of mites (which nest in house dust) and Alternaria (environmental fungus) and students with sensitization to these allergens experience inflammation of the bronchi .

When classes begin, they also begin sports and physical education in many cases have been interrupted by the summer recess. The exercise becomes a trigger for asthma attacks, especially when inflammation of the bronchi are present, due to the factors listed above.

In short, this increase is multifactorial: they enter the fall season with little control treatment or absent, increased respiratory infections and "allergies" by mites and fungi and environmental control at school, where they spend 5 to 7 hours each day, is often inferior to their homes, plus all the increased activity.

What can be done to reduce the risk of reactivation of asthma in the back to class?
a) is to ensure that appropriate preventive medication. If
had suspended during the summer should see your doctor to review and assess the reintroduction of preventive treatment.

b) Talk to the direction of the school or college at the beginning of the course , reporting the status of your son or daughter and the need to protect the school environment. This should be put in contact with other parents or through the Association of Parents of Pupils (AMPA) and claim a basic standard for respiratory hygiene school:

  • Prohibit smoking in all school
  • that classrooms are cleaned with substances that irritate the airways, the airing
  • classrooms when students are absent. That
  • not use loose chalk dust.
  • That the books are closed by glass doors in bookstores.
  • to avoid having carpets and rugs that collect dust

c) To prevent exercise-induced asthma.

  • preheating before exercise
  • Avoid sudden changes of environment.
  • Inhale through your nose and exhale through the mouth, while exercising. It should warm the air you breathe through your breath nasal.
  • must not forget that the daily preventative therapy can control the response to exercise most asmáticos.Aunque in principle can and should practice the one you like, select the sport that originated fewer symptoms.
  • Avoid exercise during a flare-active
  • Allow students to change clothes after sport or strenuous physical activities.
  • medication before exercise. If symptoms occur with exercise can be another effective measure to administer a medication prior to exercise and more effective for it is inhaled salbutamol or terbutaline, but there are others who can tell the doctor.

hope all these tips are useful for the educational community and serve to encourage "put the batteries" in the control of asthma, in partnership with their pediatricians, family physicians and nurse educators from asthma.

What Does Your Cervical Mucus Look Like Before Af

Make a wish

few days ago I got an email from these to make a wish, repeating a formula and wait for good fortune. Further stated, chickweed, that after doing your phone would ring.

The person who sent it to me is someone who appreciated and soon after gave him some jostling in the vain attempt to get him out of the cave:

- Do you rang the phone?
- No, but rang the doorbell. - Smiling triumphantly, the unfortunate.
- But do you really think that will fulfill your desire by this magic?
- We'll see, we'll see. - Held the smile, frank hope.

And the thing is I felt great pity, because as I mentioned appreciation to this person.

This morning I heard on the radio this news (the Macarena out for a walk around Seville clogging the citizens living well). When I passed the anger I was thinking about all the people who attend the beatification. And I felt sorry. The same kind of pity, because I realized that there was no difference between them and the person who sent me the ridiculous email.

Imagine the following experiment. I'll give you € 1,000 and then offer you two choices:
  1. flip a coin and if it comes up heads give you another 1,000 €, if tails do not give you any extra
  2. directly
  3. give you € 500 more

Spend half a minute to think and choose.

Now imagine this other experiment. I'll give you € 2,000 and then offer you two choices:
  1. flip a coin and if I remove it comes up heads € 1,000 and if tails you do not remove anything.
  2. I remove the face € 500
Spend another 30 seconds to think and choose.

Apparently most people take "b" in the first experiment and "a" in the second. And this is really funny (irrational as well) because in both experiments the "a" is the same in both experiments and the "b" is the same. Just think

If you choose "a" you get 50% of € 1,000 or € 2,000. If you choose "b" safely get € 1,500.

But depending on the experiment that we perceive as a risk of profit or loss will be more or less willing to take risks.

this idea I took the following video, a talk by TED Talks (with subtitles) by Laurie Santos. The video also extrapolates the experiment on monkeys to see to what extent this human irrational attitude is intricate in our biology (this extrapolation, however, gives me a little skeptical urticaria).
