Sarcoidosis Information

Sarcoidosis Information:  Sarcoidosis is a disease of the lungs that commonly affects both men and women who are between the ages of 20 to 40 years old.  It is not known why  women seem to develop the disease more often than men though. Since there is no cure for the disease, it is important that those who have the highest risk of developing sarcoidosis understand what the cause, symptoms, and methods of treatment are.

Sarcoidosis Information

Cause

Doctors think that it may develop from the inhalation of foreign particles into the lungs. The body  covers the particles with a coating to protect the person from being injured by them. Over time, the coated particles grow in size and multiply, so a person ends up having blocked air passages.

Symptoms

The blocked air flow and distortion of the lungs from this disease causes a person to have a persistent cough and difficulty breathing. They may also develop a red rash on their skin, red eyes, and blurred vision. And if the sarcoidosis goes untreated, it can spread to the rest of the body, which can lead to an enlarged liver, kidney stones, and impairment of the nervous system response.

Treatment Options

The first step in treatment are medical tests to determine if a person has the disease. The test generally consist of   x-rays, a lung biopsy, or testing with a bronchoscopy.

There is very little sarcoidosis information on treatment options. Treating this disease is difficult because it seems to develop with little warning, and it disappears just as quickly. So there is no way to prevent its onset.

If a person gets to the doctor in time before it has a chance to spread throughout the body, they can receive steroids and anti-inflammatory medications that reduce the inflammation and swelling in the body though.

The medication  will help improve their breathing and reduce any of the other symptoms that they have.

Back Pain Relief, Therapeutic Garments-Wraps

Back Pain Relief Five Pro-Tips

Back Pain Relief: While back pain remains to be a common health issue that humans in any age can face, it is not something you can leave untreated or get away with.

Depending on the intensity and longevity, you can choose whether to go for remedies or consult a physician. Usually the pain is due to sprained muscles, wrong posture of sitting and sleeping, and prolonged arrangement of the body in a single position. Lower-Upper-Middle Back Pain Relief

Back Pain Relief  Tips

1)  You are never gone to get back pain relief if your posture is bad. Right posture is the secret behind your bones and muscles’ health. Doctor Mary Ann Wilmarth, a Board certified specialist of Orthopedic Physical therapy says, “Little things add up. You can increase the pressure on your back by 50% simply by leaning over the sink incorrectly to brush your teeth.”  Yes, it’s that easy to harm your back.

2)  Limit bed rest if you want back pain relief.  Going on a bed rest to cure back pain is good when it gives you results in two days. After two days, bed rest itself becomes the cause of increased strain. Studies also advise that people who stay active are less likely to develop back pain than those who aren’t.

3) Improve flexibility of your body as it keeps you from getting bodily pains. You can do this by engaging yourself in activities like meditation, deep breathing, yoga etc.

4) Strengthen your core. Abdominal muscles are the core of your back and back pain; try strengthening them. The best you can do is to go for exercises to make the muscles stronger.

5) Exercising gets you out of routine postures and puts the body in a neutral state. Simple exercises like partial crunches and wall sits can be very useful to cure back pain.

6) Heating and icing are the easiest and most effective home remedies for back pain. Back pain can be cured using both these techniques, but most doctors recommend using ice for 48 hours from when back pain starts, particularly in case of injuries.

Therapeutic Garments-Wraps

Kelley’s  Therapeutic Garments-Wraps can be used for pain. The majority of our products are made using a patented method to create multi-pocket assemblages called WhatEver PocKits®. You can buy a  kit to ease your pain or your pet’s pain. Yes, we do have therapeutic garments for pets too. The kits help you ease pain naturally. Our WhatEver PocKits® are ideal for therapeutic, rehabilitative and general uses. They are proudly made in the USA. Our mission is to bring attention through our therapeutic garments to alternative methods of dealing with pain and keeping the body strong, vibrant and healthy.

If you want to use our therapeutic garments for rehabilitative purposes, you can insert exercise weights into the pockets of the assemblages. You can also just put in things you’ll need while maintaining an active lifestyle such as water bottles, sports drinks, cell phones and more.

When To Use Our Therapeutic Garments-Wraps  As A Cooling Kit?

Outdoor activities, especially those that you participate in during the hottest times of the day and year, could lead you to overheat, become fatigued, perspire excessively, and more.

Cool compresses or other cooling devices can relieve many of the symptoms related to overheating.  It’s a common and accepted medical practice to add cooling elements like ice to ease body discomforts.

Our therapeutic garments provide places for you to include these elements with ease so you can continue being your active self without stopping.

If you are already injured, the optimum time to cool the area is immediately after the incident occurs. Our therapeutic garments, combined with cold packs, can relieve muscular discomfort caused by physical activities that require the extended use of the arms and legs.

When to Use Our Therapeutic Garments-Wraps  With Heat?

Over time, the value of heat treatments for easing or preventing pain in muscle tissue has been well proven. Muscles that tend to cramp, for example, can benefit from the application of heat before strenuous exercise. This enriches the blood supply to the appropriate area. When you have localized injury or pain, which may be caused by torn muscles and connective tissues, our therapeutic garments can provide heat to the area. This will speed up and enhance the healing process.

Other Uses for Our Therapeutic Garments-Wraps

Our therapeutic garments can help you when participating in outdoor activities by being a great location to keep things you need such as water and hydrating fluids. They will remain cold. You can also insert cell phones, keys, glasses or other items into the pockets of our kits.

Wraps For People and Pets

Wraps For People and Pets

To use as a cooling  wrap simply insert the ice/heat packs into the pockets of the wrap.

You and your pet can now be seen out in public without wearing a medical looking wrap.

When Should Ice Be Used?
For the greatest benefits, use ice after exercise and not before. In the Journal of Sport Rehabilitation (Feb/1994), a study on the ankle was conducted to see if ice should be used on an injury before exercise. The finding showed decreased temperature reduces the joint  sensitivity and thereby alters joint position sense, exposing the joint to possible injury. In conclusion, cooling a body part prior to athletic performance is  “probably a bad idea.”

It was once believed the use of ice was only beneficial in the first 24 hours after an injury. Recent scientific studies have shown the benefits of ice over the long term. During the initial stage of an acute injury (within 24-48 hours), or during the chronic stage (after 48 hours) ice can be very beneficial in promoting wellness.
