Diarrhea and Treatment
Diarrheal disease or defecate diarrhea is one of the diseases that often about babies and toddlers. What is diarrhea? What should be done? What are the causes of diarrhea? This diarrhea can be prevented? How should treatment of diarrhea?
What is Diarrhea?
If your baby or child’s sudden change in bowel movements than usual, both the frequency / amount of waste water to be used, and out in the liquid than solid consistency, it is diarrhea.
A newborn baby will generally defecate for more than ten times a day, and larger babies will have bowel time each day there are 2-3 times a day, or there are only 2 times a week. In other words you need to know what is NORMAL for your baby or child from the habit of their bowel.
Cause of diarrhea:
* Virus (most common cause of diarrhea – and usually because Rotavirus) symptoms: Berak-poop water (watery), foamy, blood NO mucus, sour smell.
* GE (stomach flu) most of the virus.
* Bacteria – Berak2 with blood / mucus, abdominal pain. —- Requires antibioka as drug therapies.
* Parasite (Giardiasis) – Berak blood + / – and mucus, abdominal pain .—— need antiparasite
* Children’s therapy with the use antibiotilka – If diarrhea occurs when a child is in the treatment of antibiotics, then call your doctor.
* Allergies milk, – diarrhea usually occurs a few minutes or hours after drinking the milk, usually in allergy to cow’s milk and products made from cow’s milk.
* Infection of bacteria or viruses that accompany other diseases; such as urinary tract infections, ear infections, measles, etc..
Symptoms of Acute Diarrhea (Diarrhea Sudden):
The cause of acute diarrhea (sudden diarrhea) are linked because the virus, typical poop-poop water (watery), foaming, NO blood or mucus, and smelled of acid.
Diarrheal disease transmission is contact with infected feces directly, such as:
- Food and beverages that have been contaminated, either already contaminated by insects or contamination by dirty hands.
- Playing with toys contaminated, especially in infants often include hands / toys / anything into the mouth. Because the virus can survive on the surface the air until a few days.
- Use of water sources contaminated water and not cooked properly
- Washing and use of milk bottles that are not clean.
- Not washing hands thoroughly after defecation or cleaning feces infected children, so that contamination of the furniture and equipment held.
Diarrhea Treatment
Because the causes of acute diarrhea / diarrhea is a sudden virus linked, then NO treatment that can heal, because it usually will heal by itself after a few days. So diarrhea treatment is intended to treat existing symptoms and prevent dehydration or lack of fluids.
Acute diarrhea can be cured by continuing ONLY usual feeding and drink / just enough fluids.
To remember NOT to give drug treatment to stop the diarrhea, since diarrhea itself is a body defense mechanism to remove the contamination of food from the gut. Trying to stop the diarrhea with drugs such as clogging the pipeline that will go out and cause back-flow and will aggravate the channel.
Because the diarrhea is the body’s defense mechanism, will heal itself after a few days – (14 days) which contains more diarrhea – from water (watery) began berampas, it reduced the frequency and recovery.
The important thing is to prevent the diarrhea and dehydration symptoms.

Genital ulcer
* Caused by a virus (Human Papilloma Virus or HPV)
* It comes in the form of one or more sores or lumps between a month until a year after having sex with the disease

* This genital ulcer can be cured, she must perform a pap smear every time change intimate partner
FLEAS Gender
* Very small (less than or equal to 1 / 8 inch), brownish gray berwana, settled on pubic hair.
* Can be cured with a liquid medicine rubbed on genital hair
FLEAS UNDER THE SKIN
* Similar to genital lice, but smaller in size and settled under the skin
* It causes small wounds and itching all over body

Creutzfeldt Know
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is a degenerative neurological disorder that is very rare and incurable.
Spongiform encephalopathy infectious disease is caused by prions, which are often referred to as prion diseases. Other prion diseases include Gerstmann-Sträussler syndrome-Scheinker (GSS), fatal familial insomnia and kuru in humans, as well as cattle spongiform encephalopathy commonly known as mad cow disease, chronic wasting disease (CWD) in deer, and scrapie in sheep.
Prions are believed to cause Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease at least 2 shows a stable conformations. Conformation in the native state, is water soluble and present in healthy cells. Until 2006, no known biological function. Other circumstances konformatif less water soluble and easily forms a protein aggregate.
People also can contract Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease through gene mutation (needs to be defined), which only occurs in 5-10% of all cases.
CJD prion is dangerous because it increases the protein from folding into a state of illness, which causes the increase of insoluble prions in affected cells. The mass of misfolded proteins disrupts cell function and cause death. Mutations in the gene for the prion protein folding can lead to mistakes mostly alpha-helical regions into beta pleated sheets. Changes in conformation disables the ability of the protein to undergo digestion. Once the prion is transmitted, the defective proteins invade the brain and are produced in the feedback loop is supported himself, causing exponential spread of prions, death within a few months, although some people known to live for ever 2 years.
Stanley B. Prusiner was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1997 for the discovery prionnya. More than 1 decade, University neuropathologist Laura Manuelidis Yale dubious explanation for the disease. In January 2007 he and his colleagues published an article in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and reported that they found a similar virus particles (but so far without finding nucleic acids) in less than 10% strains of scrapie-infected cells and in mouse cell strains infected agent of CJD from humans.

Recognized Disease Herves
Smallpox disease or so-called ‘Herpes’ by the medical community is a skin inflammatory disease characterized by the formation of bubbles of water in groups. Chickenpox or Herpes diseases have 2 kinds of classes, and Genetalis Herpes Herpes Zoster.
Genetalis herpes is an infection or inflammation (bubble blister) on the skin especially genital (vagina, penis, including dipintu rectal / anus and the buttocks and groin / groin) is caused by herpes simplex virus (VHS), The Herpes Zoster or by another name ‘ shingles’ is a skin infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus that causes bubbles in the liquid almost the entire body.
Herpes zoster infection is also said to the skin disease which is a continuation of the chickenpox (chicken pox) because of a virus that attacks are the same, only there is a difference with chickenpox. Herpes zoster has a characteristic smallpox larger bubbles and clusters in certain parts of the body, can in the back, forehead or chest.
How Smallpox Disease Transmission (Herpes)
In general, all types of herpes can be transmitted through direct contact. However, in herpes zoster, as was the case of smallpox (chickenpox), the process of transmission can be through sneezing, coughing, contaminated clothing and touch up bubbles / blisters that burst. Genital herpes disease (genetalia), transmission occurs through sexual behavior. Herpes genetalis so this disease often suffer from dibagian mouth oral sex. The symptoms will arise in the period 7-21 days after a person is in contact (infected) varicella-zoster virus.
Someone who has had chicken pox and then recovered, the virus is not 100% lost from the body, but hiding in the dorsal ganglion cells sensory nervous system of patients. When the immune system (immune) weakened, the virus will re-attack in the form of herpes zoster which caused symptoms similar to chickenpox disease (chickenpox). For someone who had never had chicken pox, if attacked by varicella-zoster virus is not directly experienced herpes zoster but had chicken pox first.
Signs and Symptoms of Smallpox disease (herpes)
Signs and symptoms caused by the herpes virus attacks in general are fever, chills, shortness of breath, pain or sore dipersendian in one section collapsed, the appearance of reddish spots on the skin that eventually form a bubble liquid. Other complaints that patients are sometimes perceived abdominal pain.
Handling and Treatment Diseases Smallpox (Herpes)
In people with smallpox are the most important thing is to keep the bubble does not burst so that the liquid does not leave a mark and become the entrance for other bacteria (secondary infection), among others, by giving a talcum powder to help lubricate the skin. If the patient can not stand the cold conditions it is recommended not to bathe, because it can lead to shock.
The drugs given to people with smallpox is intended to reduce the symptoms of existing complaints such as pain and fever, such as paracetamol given. Giving Acyclovir tablets (Desciclovir, famciclovir, valacyclovir, and penciclovir) as an antiviral aims to reduce fever, pain, complications and the inability to protect a person from the immune system against the herpes virus. We recommend Acyclovir medication during the emergence of pain or burning feeling on the skin, do not need to wait for the emergence of a bubble of fluid (blisters).
In a serious condition in which someone immune system is very weak, small-pox disease (herpes) should get treatment terapy intravenous (IV) Acyclovir. In an effort to prevent a person should get the varicella-zoster vaccine immunization. In healthy children age 1 – 12 years is given only once. Imunasasi be given once again at puberty to establish immunity to 60% – 80%. After that, to improve it, give immunizations once again as adults. This acquired immunity can last up to 10 years.

Herpes Disease, Know?
Herpes Simplex is characterized by recurrent episodes of vesicles containing the skin or mucous membranes, the liquid and the feeling now.
Herpes simplex causes rashes on the skin or mucous membranes.
The rash disappears if the virus remains dormant in a state in the lymph nodes (the body of the neuron) that the meaning of the infected feed.
Periodically, the virus becomes active again and began to multiply, often causing a rash of blisters in the same location as the previous infection.
The virus may also in the skin without the bubbles are actually found in this situation is a source of infection for others.
The appearance of a rash can be triggered by:
- Sun exposure
- Fever
- The physical or emotional stress
- Immune system suppression
- The drugs or certain foods.
Cause
There are 2 types of herpes simplex virus, which infects the skin, HSV-1 and HSV-2.
HSV-1 is the cause of cold sores (herpes labialis), and the wound of the cornea (keratitis, herpes simplex), usually transmitted through contact with secretions or around the mouth.
HSV-2 usually causes genital herpes is spread primarily by direct contact with the wound during sex.
Symptoms
Herpes simplex is through a renaissance of deafness, discomfort or itching, which marks a few hours to 2-3 days before the estimated bubble.
Blisters surrounded by red May appear anywhere on the skin or mucous membranes, but more often in and around the mouth, lips and genitals.
