In this article I present a real case study documented with photos: how herpes symptoms changed with softlaser treatment. If you are looking for comprehensive information about softlaser treatment for herpes, read our detailed guide Softlaser treatment against herpes – Home therapy.
Erysipelas, also known as orbánc, is a bacterial skin infection that typically affects the face, legs, arms or other skin areas. The most common pathogen is the bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes, which enters through breaks in the skin and causes the infection.
Regular at-home monitoring of the blood's oxygen-carrying capacity and condition is necessary in heart and respiratory diseases and in anemia. A pulse oximeter device provides this.
For foot-related complaints it's worth consulting a professional. Few people probably know exactly how a pedicurist, podiatrist or special foot care professional can help. These occupations are related. To help clarify, I asked Anna Németh, master special foot care practitioner, lecturer and instructor, for her input. Dr. Zsolt Zátrok (ZZs): What are the roles of the pedicurist, the podiatrist and the special foot care professional? Anna Németh (AN): All three professions deal with foot problems, but their training and competencies differ.
Acetic acid iontophoresis is a non-invasive electrotherapy procedure in which acetic acid is delivered to the heel bone (calcaneus) spur area or other calcified soft-tissue lesions (e.g. calcific shoulder tendinopathy) using a mild direct current (DC). The treatment aims to relieve chronic pain and reduce the mechanical effect of calcific deposits — not to “dissolve” the spur. This guide reviews the current clinical evidence, the proposed mechanisms, and the limitations of the method.
The stability of the knee joint is provided by the leg muscles surrounding the joint, namely the thigh extensor muscles (front) and the hamstrings (back), as well as the calf muscles. If these muscles are strong, they hold the joint stably. This reduces the load on the bones forming the joint and lowers pain. There are other reasons to re-strengthen the muscles as well. Thus it is important after an injury and even before and after joint replacement surgery.
In this article I demonstrate how to regain the strength of the muscles around the knee joint.
In this video I present the DuoBravo ETS device, which is an important device in the final phase of stroke rehabilitation.
More and more people are questioning today's medical practice — specifically that almost every problem is expected to be "fixed" with medication. For most chronic patients, lifelong drug therapy produces little better results than doing nothing. A medicine does not move your muscles or joints. It does not change what you eat, or which harmful habit is destroying you. Public thinking about healing is outdated and overdue for renewal. Everything calls out for a change of approach. Lifestyle medicine is a new movement that may offer better solutions for today's most common diseases than what can be expected from pills and surgeries.
Medical fitness is a healthcare service aimed at achieving improvements for patients through exercise. Within this framework, physicians, physiotherapists and medical fitness trainers work together to create an individualized training plan for the patient that takes into account the patient's specific health condition and goals. Medical fitness programs generally target conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, joint pain, overweight and stress.
Cholesterol appears as a “bogeyman” in almost every medical conversation, yet it is in fact an essential substance: a building block of cell membranes, a component of bile acids, and the precursor molecule for vitamin D, cortisol and sex hormones. Most of the cholesterol in our body is produced by the liver; a smaller portion is obtained from the diet.
High blood pressure (medically called hypertension) is today the most common disease among Hungarians! When I graduated from university in 1991, official data showed about 1.6 million people in our country were affected. Today nearly three times as many — 4.2 million people with blood pressure problems — are registered. In my opinion there are two main reasons for this: lifestyle on one hand, and seriously flawed medical treatment protocols on the other. But let’s not rush ahead; we’ll go step by step. By the end of this article you’ll understand.
