    Long Covid

    What Is Long Covid

    Long COVID or long-haul COVID is a series of health problems persisting or developing after an initial COVID-19 infection. Symptoms can last weeks, months or years and are often debilitating.

    Many of the symptoms that have been documented in people with long COVID are similar to those that occur during the initial bout of illness. These symptoms include: Fever, Coughing, Difficulty breathing, or shortness of breath, Fatigue, Brain fog (difficulty thinking or concentrating), Joint or muscle pain, Headache, Diarrhea, Skin rashes and Loss of taste or smell.

    New symptoms that were not part of the initial bout of COVID may develop for the first time in the weeks or months after the initial infection. these can include: Mood changes, Chest pain, Heart palpitations, Stomach pain, Sleep problems, Dizziness or lightheadedness upon standing, A feeling of pins-and-needles in the body, Exhaustion or other symptoms after physical or mental activities (known as post-exertional malaise) and Changes in menstrual cycles.

    FIBROMYALGIA

    WHAT IS FIBROMYALGIA

    Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory and mood issues. Researchers believe that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain and spinal cord process painful and nonpainful signals.

    The primary symptoms of fibromyalgia include:

    Fatigue

    Cognitive difficulties

    Widespread pain

    RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

    WHAT IS RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

    Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that can affect more than just your joints. In some people, the condition can damage a
    wide variety of body systems, including the skin, eyes, lungs, heart and
    blood vessels.

    An autoimmune disorder, rheumatoid arthritis occurs when your immune system mistakenly attacks your own body's tissues.

     

    Unlike the wear-and-tear damage of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis affects the lining of your joints, causing a painful swelling
    that can eventually result in bone erosion and joint deformity.

    Signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis may include:

    Tender, warm, swollen joints

     

    • Joint stiffness that is usually worse in the mornings and after inactivity

     

    Fatigue, fever and loss of appetite

    PELVIC CONGESTION SYNDROME

    WHAT IS PELVIC CONGESTION SYNDROME

    Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) is a condition that is caused by what are basically ‘pelvic varicose veins’. Due to differences in anatomy of
    the pelvis, it usually affects females more than males. As with varicose
    veins in the legs, if the valves fail in the pelvic veins, blood that
    should be pumped out of the pelvis and back to the heart stays inside
    dilated varicose veins within the pelvis. This both stops the normal
    blood circulation to the pelvic organs and also causes these large
    varicose veins to push on the pelvic organs – the bladder, bowel, vagina
    and also the pelvic floor.

    SYMPTOMS:

    The pelvic pain you experience with PCS may feel dull, achy or heavy. Less
    commonly, the pain may feel sharp and intense. You may notice the pain
    on the left side only (most common), on the right side of your body or
    both sides. Often, pain starts during or soon after pregnancy. It may
    worsen with future pregnancies.

    The pain associated with PCS may feel worse:

    At the end of the day.

    Before and during your period.

    During intercourse and afterward (dyspareunia).

    When you stand or sit for long periods (but it feels better when you lie down).

    Other symptoms include:

    Varicose veins in your pelvis, butt, thighs, vulva and vagina.

    Frequent bouts of diarrhea and constipation (irritable bowel).

    Peeing accidentally from laughing, coughing or other movements that stress your bladder (stress incontinence).

    Pain when you pee (dysuria).

    CAUSES:

    There are a few possible reasons that veins become structurally unsound with PCS:

    Pregnancy: One theory is that PCS is related to blood vessel changes during
    pregnancy. Blood vessels expand 50% of their normal size during
    pregnancy to manage the extra blood flow needed to support a developing
    fetus. These changes may cause long-term damage to your blood vessel
    walls, causing veins to remain dilated even after you’ve had your baby.

    Estrogen: Pelvic congestion syndrome is uncommon among people who’ve experienced
    menopause, suggesting that estrogen may be involved. Estrogen levels
    decrease after menopause. Estrogen’s effects on your blood vessel walls
    may make you more susceptible to defects that lead to PCS.

    STROKE

    WHAT IS STROKE

    Stroke occurs when blood flow to an area of brain is cut off. When this happens, brain cells are deprived of oxygen and nutrients and will start to die within minutes. When brain cells die during a stroke, abilities controlled by that area of the brain such as memory and muscle control are lost. A small stroke may only cause minor problems such as temporary weakness of an arm or leg. A larger stroke can permanently paralyze one side of patient's body. The exact location of the stroke also determines the damage that occurs to the nervous system. Some people recover completely from strokes, but most survivors will have some type of disability.

    Symptoms of stroke include sudden numbness or weakness of face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body; trouble speaking or seeing; confusion; loss of balance; dizziness and severe headache.

    About 85 percent of strokes are ischemic strokes. Ischemic strokes occur when the arteries to the brain become narrowed or blocked, causing severely reduced blood flow. There are two main types of ischemic strokes - thrombotic stroke and embolic stroke. A thrombotic stroke occurs when a blood clot (thrombus) forms in one of the arteries that supply blood to your brain. A clot may be caused by fatty deposits (plaque) that build up in arteries and cause reduced blood flow (atherosclerosis) or other artery conditions. An embolic stroke occurs when a blood clot or other debris forms away from the brain, commonly in the heart, to be swept through your bloodstream to lodge in narrower brain arteries. This type of blood clot is called an embolus.

    Another type of stroke is hemorrhagic stroke. Hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain leaks or ruptures. Brain hemorrhages can result from many conditions that affect blood vessels, including uncontrolled high blood pressure (hypertension), overtreatment with anticoagulants and weak spots in the blood vessel walls (aneurysms). There are two main types of hemorrhagic stroke - intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage. In an intracerebral hemorrhage, a blood vessel in the brain bursts and spills into the surrounding brain tissue, damaging brain cells. Brain cells beyond the leak are deprived of blood and also damaged. High blood pressure, trauma, vascular malformations, use of blood-thinning medications and other conditions may cause an intracerebral hemorrhage. In a subarachnoid hemorrhage, an artery on or near the surface of the brain bursts and spills into the space between the surface of the brain and skull. The bleeding is often signaled by a sudden, severe headache. A subarachnoid hemorrhage is commonly caused by the bursting of a small sack-shaped or berry-shaped outpouching on an artery known as an aneurysm. After the hemorrhage, the blood vessels in the brain may widen and narrow erratically (vasospasm), causing brain cell damage by further limiting blood flow.

    A transient ischemic attack (TIA), a.k.a. ministroke, is a brief period of symptoms similar to a stroke. A temporary decrease in blood supply to part of the brain causes TIAs, and it often lasts less than five minutes. Like an ischemic stroke, a TIA occurs when a clot or debris blocks blood flow to part of the brain. A TIA doesn't leave lasting symptoms because the blockage is temporary.
    A stroke is a medical emergency, regardless of whether it is a major stroke or a short-lasting TIA. The key to survival and recovery is prompt medical treatment. Early action can minimize brain damage and potential complications.

    IRRIATABLE BOWEL SYNDROME

    WHAT IS IRRIATABLE BOWEL SYNDROME

    Irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, is a group of symptoms that affect your digestive system. It’s a common but uncomfortable gastrointestinal disorder. People with IBS get excessive gas, abdominal pain and cramps.

    IBS is a type of functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorder. These conditions, also called disorders of the gut-brain interaction, have to do with problems in how your gut and brain work together.These problems cause your digestive tract to be very sensitive. They also change how your bowel muscles contract. The result is abdominal pain, diarrhea and constipation.

    Often, people with IBS have normal bowel movements some days and abnormal ones on other days. The type of IBS you have depends on the abnormal bowel movements you experience:

    IBS with constipation (IBS-C): Most of your poop is hard and lumpy.

    IBS with diarrhea (IBS-D): Most of your poop is loose and watery.

    IBS with mixed bowel habits (IBS-M): You have both hard and lumpy bowel movements and loose and watery movements on the same day.

    Symptoms of IBS include:

    Abdominal pain or cramps, usually in the lower half of the abdomen.

    Bloating.

    Bowel movements that are harder or looser than usual.

    Diarrhea, constipation or alternating between the two.

    Excess gas.

    Mucus in your poop (may look whitish).

    TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA

    WHAT IS TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA

    Trigeminal neuralgia is a rare nerve disorder that affects the face. It causes sudden and severe pain in the face, which people describe as a shooting, electric shock-like pain in the teeth, jaw, gums, and other areas of the face.

    Type 2, or TN2, is the atypical form of the disorder and is characterized by a constant pain that people have described as aching, stabbing, and burning at a lower intensity than TN1. A person may experience both types of pain, sometimes at the same time, which can be incapacitating.
    Someone with trigeminal neuralgia may have one or more of the following symptoms:

    sudden attacks of severe, shooting pain in the face that last between seconds to around 2 minutes
    pain affecting one side of the face
    excruciating pain in the lower or upper jaw, teeth, or cheek, or — more uncommonly — in the forehead or eye
    a sense that an attack of pain is about to happen, although they typically start suddenly
    a slight ache or burning sensation after the most severe pain has subsided
    regular episodes of facial pain for days, weeks, or months at a time, which may disappear and not return for months or years

    Pain attacks in trigeminal neuralgia can be triggered by:

    eating
    drinking
    brushing teeth
    talking
    wind blowing across the face
    touching the face, such as when shaving

    PALMOPLANTAR PUSTULOSIS

    WHAT IS PALMOPLANTAR PUSTULOSIS

    Palmoplantar pustulosis is an autoimmune disorder marked by the appearance of fluid-filled pustules or blisters on the hands and feet.
    Autoimmune disorders cause the immune system to attack healthy cells. In the case of palmoplantar pustulosis, the immune system attacks the healthy skin on the hands and feet.
    The symptoms of palmoplantar pustulosis often vary. The most common symptom for people with palmoplantar pustulosis is sores that develop on the hands and feet.

    Some other common symptoms a person may experience include:

    small blisters on the hands or feet, often with yellow pus
    cracked skin
    tender, red skin
    itchiness
    scaly skin
    pain
    dry skin
    thick skin
    For most people, symptoms start with their skin becoming tender and red on their hands and palms. The red areas eventually form pustules that may appear as patches on the skin. The pustules are often filled with a white or yellow liquid.

    It is typical for the pustules to come and go. As they dry, the skin typically turns brown and dries, leading to cracks forming.Common risk factors include:

    smoking
    history of smoking
    family history of psoriasis
    presence of another autoimmune disorder
    family history of palmoplantar pustulosis

    CANCER

    WHAT IS CANCER

    Cancer is a generic term for a large group of diseases that can affect any part of the body. Other terms used are malignant tumours and neoplasms. One defining feature of cancer is the rapid creation of abnormal cells that grow beyond their usual boundaries, and which can then invade adjoining parts of the body and spread to other organs; the latter process is referred to as metastasis. Metastases are the primary cause of death from cancer.

    HEPATITIS

    WHAT IS HEPATITIS

    Hepatitis refers to an inflammatory condition of the liver. It is commonly the result of a viral infection, but there are other possible causes of hepatitis.

    These include autoimmune hepatitis and hepatitis that occurs as a secondary result of medications, drugs, toxins, and alcohol. Autoimmune hepatitis is a disease that occurs when your body makes antibodies against your liver tissue.

    The five main viral classifications of hepatitis are hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. A different virus is responsible for each type of viral hepatitis.

    The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 354 millions people currently live with chronic hepatitis B and C globally.

    Hepatitis A

    Hepatitis A is the result of an infection with the hepatitis A virus (HAV). This type of hepatitis is an acute, short-term disease.there are natural medicine to sort it permanently

    SJOGERN'S SYNDROME

    WHAT IS SJOGERN'S SYNDROME

    Sjogren’s is a chronic disorder of the immune system. It is an autoimmune condition, meaning that healthy tissues and cells are
    mistakenly attacked by the immune system

    It happens when white blood cells infiltrate saliva glands, tear glands, and other exocrine tissues, leading to decrease in tear and saliva
    production. This can lead to dryness in the mouth, eyes, skin, nose,
    upper respiratory tract, and vagina.

    AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS

    WHAT IS AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) refers to a group of progressive, neurological diseases that cause dysfunction in the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord that control muscle movement.
    ALS attacks the nerve cells used in voluntary muscle actions, actions that a healthy body can control, in the arms, legs, and face, for example. The targeted cells are called motor neurons.

    As ALS progresses, these cells degenerate and die. They stop sending messages to muscles, and the brain can no longer control voluntary movement. Over time, the muscles weaken and degenerate.
    Common symptoms include:

    difficulty with daily activities, including walking
    increased “clumsiness”
    weakness in the feet, hands, legs, and ankles
    cramping and twitching in the arms, shoulders, or tongue
    difficulty maintaining good posture and holding the head up
    uncontrolled outbursts of laughing or crying, a condition called “emotional lability”
    changes in thinking or memory
    slurred speech and difficulty with voice projection
    pain
    fatigue
    problems with saliva and mucus
    difficulty breathing and swallowing, in the later stages
    causes of ALS include:

    Disorganized immune response: The immune system may attack some of the body’s cells, possibly killing nerve cells.
    Chemical imbalance: People with ALS often have higher levels of glutamate, a chemical messenger in the brain, near the motor neurons. Glutamate in high quantities can be toxic to nerve cells.
    Mishandling of proteins: If nerve cells do not process proteins correctly, the resulting atypical proteins might accumulate and cause the nerve cells to die.

    PROSTATE CANCER

    WHAT IS PROSTATE CANCER

    Prostate cancer is cancer that occurs in the prostate. The prostate is a small walnut-shaped gland in males that produces the seminal fluid that
    nourishes and transports sperm.

    Prostate cancer is one of the most common types of cancer. Many prostate cancers grow slowly and are confined to the prostate gland, where they
    may not cause serious harm. However, while some types of prostate cancer
    grow slowly and may need minimal or even no treatment, other types are
    aggressive and can spread quickly.

    Prostate cancer may cause no signs or symptoms in its early stages.

    Prostate cancer that's more advanced may cause signs and symptoms such as:

    Trouble urinating

    Decreased force in the stream of urine

    Blood in the urine

    Blood in the semen

    MIGRAINE

    WHAT IS MIGRAINE

    A migraine is a headache that can cause severe throbbing pain or a pulsing sensation, usually on one side of the head. It's often
    accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and
    sound. Migraine attacks can last for hours to days, and the pain can be
    so severe that it interferes with your daily activities.

    Symptoms

    Migraines, which affect children and teenagers as well as adults, can progress through four stages: prodrome, aura, attack
    and post-drome. Not everyone who has migraines goes through all stages.

    Prodrome

    One or two days before a migraine, you might notice subtle changes that warn of an upcoming migraine, including:

    Constipation

    Mood changes, from depression to euphoria

    Food cravings

    Neck stiffness

    Increased urination

    Fluid retention

    Frequent yawning

    Aura

    For some people, an aura might occur before or during migraines. Auras are reversible symptoms of the nervous
    system. They're usually visual but can also include other disturbances.
    Each symptom usually begins gradually, builds up over several minutes
    and can last up to 60 minutes.

    Examples of migraine auras include:

    Visual phenomena, such as seeing various shapes, bright spots or flashes of light

    Vision loss

    Pins and needles sensations in an arm or leg

    Weakness or numbness in the face or one side of the body

    Difficulty speaking

    Attack

    A migraine usually lasts from 4 to 72 hours if untreated. How often migraines occur varies from person to
    person. Migraines might occur rarely or strike several times a month.

    During a migraine, you might have:

    Pain usually on one side of your head, but often on both sides

    Pain that throbs or pulses

    Sensitivity to light, sound, and sometimes smell and touch

    Nausea and vomiting

    Post-drome

    After a migraine attack, you might feel drained, confused and washed out for up to a day. Some people
    report feeling elated. Sudden head movement might bring on the pain
    again briefly.

    HASHIMOTOS

    WHAT IS HASHIMOTOS

    Hashimoto's disease is an autoimmune disorder affecting the thyroid gland. The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of
    the neck just below the Adam's apple. The thyroid produces hormones that
    help regulate many functions in the body.

    An autoimmune disorder is an illness caused by the immune system attacking healthy tissues. In Hashimoto's disease, immune-system cells
    lead to the death of the thyroid's hormone-producing cells. The disease
    usually results in a decline in hormone production (hypothyroidism

     

    Hashimoto's disease progresses slowly over the years. You may not notice signs or symptoms of the disease. Eventually, the decline in
    thyroid hormone production can result in any of the following:

    Fatigue and sluggishness

    Increased sensitivity to cold

    Increased sleepiness

    Dry skin

    Constipation

    Muscle weakness

    Muscle aches, tenderness and stiffness

    Joint pain and stiffness

    Irregular or excessive menstrual bleeding

    Depression

    Problems with memory or concentration

    BURNING MOUTH SYNDROME

    WHAT IS BURNING MOUTH SYNDROME

    Burning mouth syndrome is the medical term for ongoing or recurring burning in the mouth without an obvious cause. You may feel this burning
    on your tongue, gums, lips, inside of your cheeks, roof of your mouth
    or large areas of your whole mouth. The feeling of burning can be
    severe, as if you injured your mouth with a very hot drink.

     

    Symptoms of burning mouth syndrome may include:

     

    A burning or scalding feeling that most commonly affects your tongue, but also may affect your lips, gums, roof of your mouth, throat
    or whole mouth.

    A feeling of dry mouth with increased thirst.

    Taste changes in your mouth, such as a bitter or metallic taste.

    Loss of taste.

    Tingling, stinging or numbness in your mouth.

     

    The cause of burning mouth syndrome may be primary or secondary.

     

    Primary burning mouth syndrome

    When the cause can't be found, the condition is called primary or idiopathic burning mouth syndrome. Some research suggests that primary burning mouth syndrome is related to problems with the nerves involved with taste and pain.

     

    Secondary burning mouth syndrome

    Sometimes burning mouth syndrome is caused by an underlying medical condition. In these cases, it's called secondary burning mouth syndrome.

     

    Underlying problems that may be linked to secondary burning mouth syndrome include:

     

    Dry mouth, which can be caused by some medicines, health problems, problems with the glands that make saliva or the side effects of cancer treatment.

    Other oral conditions, such as a fungal infection of the mouth called oral thrush, an inflammatory condition called oral lichen planus or a condition called geographic tongue that gives the tongue a maplike appearance.

    Not getting enough nutrients, such as a lack of iron, zinc, folate (vitamin B-9), thiamin (vitamin B-1), riboflavin (vitamin B-2), pyridoxine (vitamin B-6) and cobalamin (vitamin B-12).

    Allergies or reactions to foods, food flavorings, other food additives, fragrances or dyes, dental materials, or mouth care products.

    Reflux of stomach acid that enters your mouth from your stomach, also called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

    Certain medicines, especially high blood pressure medicines.

    Oral habits, such as pushing your tongue against your teeth, biting the tip of your tongue, and grinding or clenching your teeth.

    Endocrine disorders, such as diabetes or an underactive thyroid known as hypothyroidism.

    A very irritated mouth, which may result from brushing your tongue too much or too hard, using abrasive toothpastes, overusing mouthwashes, or having too many acidic foods or drinks. Dentures that don't fit well may cause irritation that can make symptoms worse.

    Psychological issues, such as anxiety, depression or stress.

    DYSTONIA

    WHAT IS DYSTONIA

    Dystonia is a disorder that affects the way the body moves. It causes the muscles to contract, which makes them move involuntarily or get stuck
    in an abnormal position. Dystonia can affect the entire body or a
    certain part, and the movements can sometimes cause pain.

    Symptoms may start slowly—you might notice that your handwriting is deteriorating. Sometimes you may get cramps in the feet or, more
    noticeably, you may lose control over a foot and find that it contracts
    or drags along.

    Other symptoms of dystonia can include:

    Involuntary and rapid blinking that you can't stop

    A sudden tightening or turning of the neck to one side, particularly when you’re feeling fatigued or stressed

    Difficulty speaking

    A tremor in your voice

    Symptoms that worsen with tiredness, stress, or lots of physical activity

    The symptoms of dystonia may stay the same or worsen over time.

    GENITAL HERPES

    WHAT IS GENITAL HERPES

     

    Genital herpes is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI). The herpes simplex virus (HSV) causes genital herpes. Genital herpes can often be spread by skin-to-skin contact during sexual activity.

    Some people infected with the virus may have very mild symptoms or no symptoms. They can still able to spread the virus. Other people have pain, itching and sores around the genitals, anus or mouth.

    Most people infected with HSV don't know they have it. They may have no symptoms or have very mild symptoms.

    Symptoms start about 2 to 12 days after exposure to the virus. They may include:

    Pain or itching around the genitals

    Small bumps or blisters around the genitals, anus or mouth

    Painful ulcers that form when blisters rupture and ooze or bleed

    Scabs that form as the ulcers heal

    Painful urination

    Discharge from the urethra, the tube that releases urine from the body

    Discharge from the vagina

    SMALL INTESTINAL BACTERIAL OVERGROWTH

    WHAT IS SMALL INTESTINAL BACTERIAL OVERGROWTH

    Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) occurs when there is an abnormal increase in the overall bacterial population in the small intestine — particularly types of bacteria not commonly found in that part of the digestive tract. This condition is sometimes called blind loop syndrome.

    small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) commonly results when a circumstance — such as surgery or disease — slows the passage of food and waste products in the digestive tract, creating a breeding ground for bacteria. The excess bacteria often cause diarrhea and may cause weight loss and malnutrition.

    While SIBO is often a complication of stomach (abdominal) surgery, this condition can also result from structural problems and some diseases. Sometimes surgery is needed to correct the problem, but antibiotics are the most common treatment.

     

    Signs and symptoms include: Loss of appetite, Abdominal pain, Nausea, Bloating, An uncomfortable feeling of fullness after eating, Diarrhea, Unintentional weight loss and Malnutrition

    CONSTIPATION

    WHAT IS CONSTIPATION

    Constipation is a problem with passing stool. Constipation generally means passing fewer than three stools a week or having a difficult time
    passing stool.

    Constipation is fairly common. A lack of dietary fiber, fluids and exercise can cause constipation. But other medical conditions or certain
    medicines may be the cause.

     

    Constipation is usually treated with changes in diet and exercise or with nonprescription medicines. Constipation may require medicines,
    changes in medicines or other treatments prescribed by a health care
    professional.

    Long-term constipation, also called chronic constipation, may require treating another disease or condition that can cause or worsen
    constipation.

    Symptoms of constipation include:

    • Fewer than three stools a week.
    • Hard, dry or lumpy stools.
    • Straining or pain when passing stools.
    • A feeling that not all stool has passed.
    • A feeling that the rectum is blocked.
    • The need to use a finger to pass stool.

     

    • Chronic constipation is having two or more of these symptoms for three months or longer.

    Causes

    Patterns of bowel movements vary from one person to another. The typical range is three times a day to three times a week.
    So it's important to know what is typical for you.

    In general, constipation occurs when stool moves too slowly through the large intestine, also called the colon. If the stool moves slowly,
    the body absorbs too much water from the stool. The stool can become
    hard, dry and difficult to pass

     

    Lifestyle causes

    Slow stool movement may happen when a person does not:

    • Drink enough fluids.
    • Eat enough dietary fiber.
    • Exercise regularly.
    • Use the toilet when there's an urge to pass stool.
                  
                  

    Medicines

    Constipation may be a side effect of some medicines, particularly opioid pain relievers. Other medicines that
    may cause constipation include some that treat the following
    conditions:

    • Pain.
    • High blood pressure.
    • Seizures.
    • Depression.
    • Disorders of the nervous system.
    • Allergies.
  • LARRY SHANE HERBAL FORMULAS
