Hypertension: 高血压: 完全图解





Pruritis: 如何应对痒

1. Gentle skin care: regular use of moisturizers and occlusives, avoiding hot baths and showers, avoiding harsh soap, and use of air humidification.
2. If a primary skin lesion is present, topical corticosteroids (皮质激素) should be used. Note: 尽量用中低强度的激素。面部尤其要避免高强度激素。
3. Oral antihistamines: such as Benadryl (OTC). Be aware of sedation. 

Ankle Sprain: 脚崴了怎么办

Ankle Sprain 分为两种: 内崴和外崴。 多数是因为内崴。

程度分为I,II,III级。
I级为轻微:没有韧带拉伤,表现为痛。
II级为部分韧带拉伤,会有痛,淤血,不太能承重。
III级为重度:韧带完全断裂,或有骨折,痛,有淤血,不能承重。

脚崴了后,应该自我检测踝关节,如有按压痛,要立即去急诊拍片以排除骨折。 若自我判断为II,III级,均要立即去急诊。

 I,II级的保守治疗可简括为PRICE。
P: Protect Ankle,不要承重。
R: Rest Ankle,不要过分活动踝关节。
I: Ice, 冰敷。
C: Compression, 上绷带。
E: Elevation, 抬高患脚。

如果你不能分清楚到底是脚崴了还是其他部位的问题,参见下面的网站。那里有全面的解释。

Cluster Headache (丛集性头痛)

Tension Headache (紧张性头痛)

Stanford Hospital's Meredith Barad, MD, Discusses Migraine Headaches

This is an excellent talk on Migraine Headache(偏头痛)

Hippocratic Oath


I swear by Apollo, the healer, Asclepius, Hygieia, and Panacea, and I take to witness all the gods, all the goddesses, to keep according to my ability and my judgment, the following Oath and agreement:

To consider dear to me, as my parents, him who taught me this art; to live in common with him and, if necessary, to share my goods with him; To look upon his children as my own brothers, to teach them this art; and that by my teaching, I will impart a knowledge of this art to my own sons, and to my teacher's sons, and to disciples bound by an indenture and oath according to the medical laws, and no others.

I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.

I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion.

But I will preserve the purity of my life and my arts.

I will not cut for stone, even for patients in whom the disease is manifest; I will leave this operation to be performed by practitioners, specialists in this art.

In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction and especially from the pleasures of love with women or with men, be they free or slaves.

All that may come to my knowledge in the exercise of my profession or in daily commerce with men, which ought not to be spread abroad, I will keep secret and will never reveal.

If I keep this oath faithfully, may I enjoy my life and practice my art, respected by all humanity and in all times; but if I swerve from it or violate it, may the reverse be my life.
