This fusion turns into a large lesion causing erythema, which is superficial reddening of the skin, pruritis a severe itching of the skin and non pitting edema ( swelling in certain parts of the body) pain is rarely experienced. In the long run this forms into a deep crater with a crusted, blue-black central eschar. If this goes untreated symptoms remain for 2 weeks; the eschar will then loosen and fall off, granulation tissue will then form a scar. Systemic accompanying symptoms include low-grade fever, malaise, and occasionally lynphadenopathy, that is a disease that affects the lymph nodes. Inhaled anthrax spores produce nonspecific symptoms after about 1- to 5-day incubation period.
Your joint is surrounded by tissue called the synovium, which supports and protects it. The synovium makes fluid that helps the cartilage and bones of your joint move smoothly. When you have RA, your immune system attacks the synovium causing inflammation, or swelling, and other RA symptoms. Left untreated, an inflamed synovium can damage your cartilage and bone. When this happens, the muscles and tissues that surround the joint weaken.

3.8. IMPACT OF EDENTULISM ON ORAL HEALTH: (definition) Missing teeth can cause impairment, limitation of function, physical, mental, and social handicap [19]. Thus, the impact of edentulism on general body should be observed by measuring the major dimensions of health: physical symptoms and functional capacity, social function. This means that well-conted endpoints of demographic significance can be used to understand the world wide problem of this disease. 3.8.1.EFFECT ON NORMAL PHYSIOLOGY: Bone loss is an ongoing process after edentulism [20], affecting the lower jaw four times more than the upper jaw [21].
This is caused by stomach muscles trying to force food past the outlet of the pylorus. Metabolic alkalosis occurs (decreased serum chloride, increased ph and bicarbonate or CO2 content). Babies given certain antibiotics, such as erythromycin, in the
This abnormal mucus can clog the airways which will lead to severe problems with breathing and bacterial infections in the lungs. These infections will cause an individual to cough and wheeze. Inflammation is caused as well. Over time, mucus buildup and infections result in permanent lung damage which includes the formation of scar tissue and cyst in the lungs. Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) located
The cells are located in the pancreas, and they are responsible for producing insulin. The ensuing deficient in insulin results in amplified urine and blood glucose. IDDM is a chronic disease resulting in high mortality rate throughout the globe. The disease is not curable, but patients learn to manage it throughout their lifetime. Some of the classical symptoms of the disease include loss of weight, urinating frequently, extreme thirst as well as hunger (Cooke & Plotnick, 2008).
Systemic Lupus Erythematousus (SLE) it’s the most serious form of lupus. 15% of people who have it first start feeling sick when they are teens. Systemic Erythematousus can affect the skin, joints, and tendons. It may also affect organs like the brain, heart, lungs, and kidneys. Coetaneous (skin) Lupus is a skin disease that causes a rash on the face, neck, scalp, and ears.
“Meth causes the blood vessels to constrict; it cuts off the steady flow of blood to all parts of the body. Heavy usage can weaken and destroy these vessels, causing tissues to become prone to damage and inhibiting the body's ability to repair itself.” (Visible Signs, paragraph 1) A really big appearance change that happens when using this drug is the aging process. The body loses the elasticity and luster that causes you to look young in such a short amount of time. Another really bad thing that can happen to your body with all the Methamphetamine use is the hygiene of the mouth. “The drug causes the salivary glands to dry out, which allows the mouth's acids to eat away at the tooth enamel, causing cavities.” (Meth Mouth, second
Sickle Cell Anemia Bill Hammond 1/17/13 Akron Institute Anatomy & Physiology II What is the disorder? The disorder is caused when red blood cells form a crescent, sickle like shape. These cells cause anemia by how easily they break apart. These damaged cells only live about 10-20 days and they also block blood flow by clumping together and sticking to blood vessel walls. The blockage of blood flow can cause severe pain and permanent damage to the brain, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, spleen, and bones.
