Keratoconus is a thinning disorder of Cornea( the front transparent part of the eye). In about 15-20% cases, a hereditary pattern can be seen. It can occur in children, however the majority of cases are diagnosed in young adults. Frequently changing glass prescriptions may be a clue. Corneal topography aids the diagnosis. Treatment options available are CXL( Collagen Cross Linking) to stop the progression and glasses, contact lenses, Intacs and Cairs for visual rehabilitation in early stages. Advanced cases go for corneal transplants like DALK and Penetrating Keratoplasty. Eye rubbing is considered important in the evolution of the disease process. #Worldkeratoconusday

Every April 17, we commemorate World Haemophilia Day, dedicated to raising awareness about haemophilia and related bleeding disorders. Haemophilia, an inherited condition, disrupts normal blood clotting, leading to spontaneous bleeding and bruising, especially post-surgery or injury. Treatment typically involves injecting clotting factor concentrate into a vein, effectively preventing or minimising bleeding episodes. Let's unite in combating these disorders today. Stay vigilant about your health, seek medical attention promptly, and remember, timely action can prevent further complications.

Inflammation is the body's response to injury or infection – if left untreated, it can spread to other parts of the body, leading to chronic health problems. Research has shown that oral inflammation can have a significant impact on systemic health: inflammation around impacted teeth, poorly integrated dental implants or implants with inflammation, and old extraction sites can cause low-grade chronic infection. This can lead to systemic inflammation in the gut, brain, skin, and joints.⚕ Inflammation in the jawbone is a bone marrow infection and bone marrow is the foundation of our immune system.

Psoriasis is often thought to be an adult condition, but it can affect individuals of any age, including children. In fact, psoriasis in children is not uncommon, though it may sometimes present differently than it does in adults. The condition is a chronic autoimmune disorder that causes rapid skin cell turnover, leading to thick, scaly patches on the skin. Both genetic and environmental factors can play a role in its development, and early diagnosis and treatment are important for managing the symptoms and improving quality of life for affected individuals, regardless of age. www.hormonereset.in #PsoriasisAwareness #FunctionalMedicine #HealthyLiving #AutoimmuneDisorders #guthealth #rootcausemedicine #psoriasis #psoriasiswarrior #PsoriasisAwareness #FunctionalMedicine #SkinHealth #AutoimmuneDisease #functionalmedicinedoctorbangalore #functionalmedicinepractitionerbangalore
