Monkeypox: What You Need to Know

A new viral threat is spreading fast, and it's essential to stay ahead of the game. Monkeypox, a rare disease that originated in Africa, has gone global, and we need to take action.

Recognize the Symptoms

Don't ignore these warning signs:

- Fever
- Headache
- Fatigue
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Painful blisters and rashes (often starting on the face, then spreading to other parts)

Protect Yourself

Take these simple steps to avoid Monkeypox:

1. Wash your hands: Frequently and thoroughly with soap and water.
2. Avoid close contact: Steer clear of people with symptoms or who have recently traveled to affected areas.
3. Don't touch: Avoid direct contact with infected animals, surfaces, or contaminated materials.
4. Keep surfaces clean: Regularly disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects.
5. Get vaccinated: If you're in a high-risk group or have been exposed, consult your healthcare provider about the vaccine.
6. Practice safe s*x: Use protection and avoid intimate contact with someone who has symptoms.
7. Stay informed: Follow trusted health sources for updates and guidance.

What to Do If You're Exposed

If you've been in close contact with someone with Monkeypox or have symptoms:

1. Seek medical attention: Immediately consult your healthcare provider.
2. Isolate yourself: Stay away from others to prevent spread.
3. Follow treatment: Adhere to your healthcare provider's guidance and treatment plan.

Stay safe, stay informed, and support those affected.

Alphabetical Health Series

Welcome to our Alphabetical Health Series! Each week, we'll be exploring a new health topic, from A to Z. Our goal is to educate and raise awareness on various health conditions, are treatments, and wellness tips.

This Week: Asthma

Asthma 101

Asthma is a chronic lung disease that's characterized by airway inflammation, hyperresponsiveness, and reversible obstruction. But what does that even mean?

- Causes: Asthma can be triggered by a combo of genetic and environmental factors, like family history, allergies, respiratory infections, air pollution, and to***co smoke.

- Symptoms: If you have asthma, you might experience wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and nocturnal symptoms (aka nighttime attacks).

- Treatment: The good news is that asthma can be managed with the right treatment, including inhalers, medications, and lifestyle changes.

- How Inhalers Work: Inhalers deliver medication straight to the lungs, where it can work its magic. It binds to specific receptors, relaxes airway muscles, and increases airflow.

- What's Happening in the Lungs: Chronic inflammation leads to hyperresponsiveness, airway constriction, and thickening of airway walls and blood vessels.

Stay tuned for our next post on B!
