The kidney damage due to myeloma is fatigue, nausea, vomiting there also could be no signs and could cause foamy urine. Hyperviscostly syndrome can cause bruising from the mouth, nose, headaches, confusion, sleepiness, and problems with feeling their limbs. A bone marrow sample is taken to see what stage you can be treated

Partial Seizures is a condition that causes repeated seizures. Generalized Seizures takes place on both sides of the brain. Anything that affects the body also may disturb the brain and lead to a seizure. For example, fever, brain defect present at birth, brain infection, stroke,

Ventriculoperitoneal shunts, which reroute CSF to the abdomen and endoscopic third ventriculostomy, which places a fenestration on the floor of the third ventricle and allows for CSF to directly flow into the subarachnoid space, are both viable choices for management of hydroencephalus. Endoscopic third ventriculostomy has the additional advantage of obtaining a biopsy during the same procedure, allowing for staging of the tumor and consequently, better-informed decisions on treatment. If tumor progression or high-grade gliomas are identified after the initial intervention, patients can elect to undergo a mixed combination of more aggressive treatments, such as surgical resection of the tumor, radiotherapy, and

Unusually low blood sugar levels, brain injuries, strokes, brain tumors, cancer, the used of drugs such as cocaine, medications and flashing lights can be the cause of a seizure. Epilepsy is a disorder in which nerve cell activity is disturbed and causes seizures. However, doctors can use several tests to determine if a person

DISCUSSION The exact incidence of nasal septal perforation is unknown as most of the patients are asymptomatic and others may not seek medical attention2. Iatrogenic cause still continues to be a main reason for nasal septal perforation. Excessive nasal packing, post-operative septal haematomas and infections may result in septal perforations following surgery2.

Pathologies wherein tendons pull a portion of Cortical bone away from the bone surface, such as Osgood-Schlatter disease and avulsion fractures, are often well depicted with ultrasound. Stress fractures too small to be seen on radiographs can often be directly seen with ultrasound. Ultrasound is also a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring rheumatic diseases. The orthopedic pathologies which can be diagnosed with ultrasound are numerous. Ultrasound has a wide variety of uses in orthopedics that extend beyond routine diagnosis of bone irregularities.

3-CT It is radiological exam that uses x-ray tube to produce cross sectional images of the body by rotating around it and detecting the radiation coming out of it. This modality able to provide internal soft tissue details so it asses to reveal if any lymph node or organ are enlarged. CT are helpful in looking for any lymph in abdomen, pelvis, chest, head, and neck(2). and hepatosplenomegaly, or filling defects in the liver and spleen. CT is used for initial staging, assessing response to therapy , and for follow-up.(3)

The medical model looks at a mental illness as a result of physical problems within the body such as genetic faults, a chemical imbalance, or abnormal brain structure. Which means it can be treated medically. For instance there is evidence from brain scans to show that people who live with anorexia have increased activity within the serotonin systems and higher levels of dopamine receptors within the brain (News.bbc.co.uk, 1999). The medical model is the most recognised, most supported and most used when it comes to mental illness.

External periocular soft tissue and determine global integrity must be done before proceeding ocular functioning test. Some signs of possible globe rupture are 360of subconjunctival hemorrhage, misshapen pupil (peaked, corectopia), and at anterior chamber. If the globe is intact, the next most important exam element is the eye pressure. A slit-lamp examination can be another way to further evaluate the cornea and retina.

Newman et al 2009 found that the chronic demyelination of can have an excitatory effect on the spinal cord and focal lesions found in the spinal cord are common in early onset signs of MS. Other less visible and subjective symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis reported by this group include fatigue, pain, depression, sleep disturbances and reported decreased quality of life. Initial symptoms include blurred or double vision in which the Optic and Oculomotor neurons of the brain are affected. Women are qualitatively diagnosed more often than men and Newman et al. 2009 assessed the pain perception of this group.

Even though depression is a common issue among primary care patients, only few communicate openly with their primary care providers (Williams & Nieuwsma, 2016). Moreover, two-thirds of depressed patients at the clinic setting are present with only bodily symptoms, such as back pain and headache (Williams & Nieuwsma, 2016). The United States Preventive Services Task Force [USPSTF] (2009) commends general depression screening for adults aged 18 and older. However, this takes place only when there are some staff-assisted depression care supports, such as clinical evaluation, patient education, and follow-up calls. Otherwise, routine screening is not recommended, unless in a case where an individual is suspected of having depression based on self-report, clinical scrutiny, or risk factors for depression (USPSTF, 2009).

• Type 2 diabetes. • Kidney disease. • Family history of preeclampsia. • Other medical conditions that cause hormonal imbalances. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS As with all types of hypertension, postpartum hypertension may not have any symptoms.

In recent years we have seen an increase in the number of athletes who have been diagnosed with horrific diseases that can disable you in several different ways. There are people who have the diseases or have loved ones with the diseases that they put the blame for getting the diseases on the sports and the sport associations. This has caused the Major League sports associations to put more precautions and rules into the game, which in some cases has changed the way the game is played. Sports should make the game safer, but not at the cost of changing the game.

The brain is the most complex organ in our body. It serves as the command center of the human nervous system. The brain is composed of different parts and functions that are dependent upon each other. The brain consists of two distinct sides: the right and left cerebral hemispheres. The side of the brain that endures damage will impact the function on the opposite side of the body and impairs mental capabilities.
