Mosquitoes - the little flying killers # Introduction to Mosquitoes -- My dengue fever made me curious about mosquitoes. After I recovered, I searched on Google and found out – the history of mosquitoes. I had forgotten what I had studied in school when I was young. Dengue fever made me remember it again. I realized again – ‘We are a very ignorant people’. Mosquitoes are deadly creatures in our region. Different types of mosquitoes carry different types of germs. Anopheles, Aedes and Culex are the three types of mosquitoes that are most common in our country. They are easy to recognize by sight. To live a healthy life, we must be aware of the factors that are around us that cause health problems. Mosquitoes are carriers of various diseases, that is, they carry mosquito-borne viruses. Malaria is spread through the bite of female Anopheles mosquitoes. Dengue fever and chikungunya fever are spread by the bite of Aedes mosquitoes. And Culex mosquitoes spread filaria or gout disease...

Rheumatic Fever A few days ago, I went to the hospital to see a relative of a patient with Corona's shock syndrome. Then I met another acquaintance. He came to the doctor with his child. The boy is suffering from rheumatic fever. A risky health problem is rheumatic fever. Those of us who are fortunately healthy only know the name "rheumatic fever", many do not have a proper idea about its severity. But - to lead a healthy life , we need to know. Experts say that rheumatic fever is not a common fever. If not treated properly, various heart-related complications can occur after rheumatic fever.

There are many forms of ‘fever’ During the Corona period, my house helper got a fever. We all thought - he has Corona. But after a few days, we were confused by the symptoms of fever and sent him to the doctor. The doctor said - he has typhoid. We were saved from making a big mistake. So, in case of fever or any health problem - let the doctor diagnose it without diagnosing it yourself. How to understand typhoid? There are also many forms of ‘fever’. So to recognize this ‘fever’, you need to know, for example - how can you understand whether someone has typhoid fever or not? Experts say - the severity of typhoid fever is usually high and increases step by step. Even if the fever is reduced slightly with medicines like paracetamol, it does not completely cure it. This fever can last for more than seven days. Along with this, the body may become weak along with headache, vomiting, diarrhea. Constipation also occurs. The patient may become almost unconscious or delirious due t...

Problem - Fever for a long time? Although the severity of Corona is not that great now, our fear has not gone away yet. Whenever we have a fever, we first think of Corona. Just as the patient himself is afraid, everyone around him, including the family, becomes suspicious. A similar incident happened with my house helper. Later, we reassure ourselves - it is not Corona when we have a fever. Even then, awareness of some fevers is important. There is no substitute for awareness for a healthy life. Fever for a long time has not completely subsided even with medication. After being somewhat better for a few days, the fever comes again. Nothing is detected in the health tests. If someone has this, it is quite a matter of concern. Not only from the patient's side, but prolonged fever for unknown reasons is also a big headache for doctors. Experts say that if a fever of more than 38 degrees Celsius persists for more than three weeks and nothing is found in the initial tests, it is c...

Thick phlegm (mucus) Once, on a long train journey, an old gentleman was sitting next to me. He was coughing a lot and was coughing out the window. I was also sitting in the seat opposite him, next to the window, so I could see his phlegm. I saw thick phlegm. When I asked him if he had seen a doctor, he said, “The phlegm is thick, it will be too late to cure the problem” I didn’t say anything to him, I just said – you should see a doctor. Later, I asked a doctor I knew – what does “thick phlegm” mean? The doctor said – Many people have coughs and fevers every day. Many people, young and old, suffer from coughs when the season changes or when they catch a cold, have a sore throat or swollen tonsils. In most cases, this phlegm is not that complicated, they are viral infections, asthma or bronchitis, tonsillitis or inflammation of the airways. The doctor said - but "thick phlegm" means the problem has become complicated. The reason for the color of the phlegm to change t...

There are two other species of 'Corona' - MERS-CoV and SARS Although the fear of Corona is currently subdued among us. Still, my curious mind is interested in knowing and reporting on any subject in depth. So I searched for various journals to find out more. From the research report, it is known that there is an outbreak of MERS-CoV or Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus in Saudi Arabia and other countries in the Middle East. This virus was first detected in Saudi Arabia in 2012. By 2015, MERS-CoV had spread to about 21 countries in the world - including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Kuwait, Turkey, Oman, Algeria, etc. At that time, the World Health Organization identified MERS as a future pandemic and listed it for urgent research. Research shows that camels usually transmit 'MERS-CoV' to humans. Like Corona, there is a risk of infection to other people if they come into close contact with an infected person. This virus ...
