Exercise Induced Pruritus

Ever started a run and a few minutes into it, you start to experience an itchy sensation all over your legs, and it's so overwhelming that you have to stop running to scratch? Well most people have complained about this and its about time we put a rest to your worries. Fact is, as your heart rate increases, blood flows faster, and the millions of tiny capillaries and arteries in your muscles begin to expand rapidly. These capillaries stay open to allow for maximum blood passage when you're fit, but if you're out of shape, your capillaries tend to collapse, not allowing as much blood to pass through. When your capillaries expand, the surrounding nerves become stimulated and send messages to the brain , which reads the sensation you get as itching. Unfortunately, your itchy legs are the price paid for falling off the exercise wagon. So if you want to prevent itchy legs, keep up with your regular exercise routine. Just like a red face or bulging veins during exercise, itch...

Problems of Nigeria’s Resident Doctors

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit. - Aristotle Every young Nigerian doctor's dream is to get well trained. This training is carried out by two nationally recognized postgraduate medical colleges namely: National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria ( NPMCN ) and West African College of Physicians/Surgeons ( WACP/WACS ). Their operations for many decades have produced seasoned medical specialists in different specialties and sub-specialties who have driven medical practice and training from rudimentary stages to where it is today. Albeit, the whole process has not been without certain burgeoning factors. FACTORS Three major factors among others have been identified to be militating against the central rationale of Residency Training in Nigeria. These factors include 1. Tr...

DOCOTAL: DIGITAL DOCTORS PART 2

Saving millions of lives After waiting for almost 5 hours to see the doctor at the General Hospital in Ikeja, Lagos State, Mr. Olutayo Ayinla was finally given an appointment to see the consultant Cardiologist. But wait… it wasn’t the next day, but in the next 35 days because of so many patients on the waiting list. I could see the anger and frustration on his face as he entered my office. "Doctor, how will I wait so long to see the Cardiologist?": he said. "What if something goes wrong with my heart?...what will happen if my condition deteriorates?...what if my failing health and constant palpitations prevent me from coming to the hospital?" These are the many questions I find difficult to answer, and this is also the plight that the general population faces when it comes to booking an appointment with a consultant in a general hospital. With the recent economic recession in the country, consulting with a Cardiologist in a private hospital will not only cost a fort...

The Habit Of Good Health

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit. - Aristotle Its's all about habit Having a sound health comes with its perks, it’s not a like a fairy tale where everything seems so easy, in order to maintain a sound health, you must create some habits , these habits will ensure that your health remains sound at all times. When you call something a habit, it means; something you love doing, and you do all the time. So, if you must maintain a sound health , you must love to do some things and you must be willing to do them at all times. The good thing about good health habit is that; you get used to them with time if you're not so used to them at first when you start. One odd thing about humans is that we often take as a habit; things that are not really beneficial to our health and t...
