NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES (NCDs)
Silent conditions. Lifelong impact. Early action saves lives.
Non-communicable diseases are illnesses that do not spread from person to person. They often develop slowly, sometimes without obvious symptoms, but they can greatly affect quality of life if not detected early.
🔹 Main Types of NCDs
1️⃣ Metabolic Conditions
These affect how the body controls sugar, fats, and blood pressure.
Diabetes – high blood sugar levels
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) – increased pressure in blood vessels
👉 Often called silent killers because symptoms may appear late.
2️⃣ Other Non-Communicable Diseases
These affect different organs and systems of the body, including:
Cancers
Heart diseases
Chronic lung diseases (like asthma and COPD)
Kidney disease
❤️ Why Early Detection Matters
Most NCDs can be controlled or slowed down when found early.
Regular screening, check-ups, and healthy lifestyle choices lead to:
Better treatment outcomes
Fewer complications
Longer, healthier lives
🩺 Don’t wait for symptoms. Get screened early.
Your health today shapes your tomorrow.

🌿 ASTHMA AWARENESS – Alpha Care Annex
Asthma is a long-term condition that affects the airways, making it hard to breathe when they become inflamed and narrowed. With proper care, people with asthma can live full, active lives.
🔎 Causes of Asthma
Family history (genetics)
Allergies (dust, pollen, pet dander)
Childhood respiratory infections
Environmental pollution and smoke
⚠️ Exacerbating Factors (Triggers)
Cold air or weather changes
Dust and strong smells/perfumes
To***co smoke
Exercise without proper control
Stress and strong emotions
Respiratory infections (flu, common cold)
🚨 Reasons for Asthma Attacks
Asthma attacks happen when triggers cause:
Airway swelling
Tightening of airway muscles
Excess mucus production
This leads to cough, wheeze, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.
🩺 Diagnosis
In Adults:
Medical history and symptom review
Lung function tests (spirometry/peak flow)
In Children:
Symptom patterns (coughing, wheezing, night symptoms)
Response to asthma medication
Lung tests in older children
💊 Treatment
Prevention (Controllers):
Daily inhalers to reduce inflammation
Avoiding known triggers
Allergy management
Control (Relievers):
Quick-relief inhalers during attacks
Emergency care for severe symptoms
🫁 Asthma & Pneumonia
People with asthma have more sensitive lungs
Lung infections like pneumonia can worsen asthma
Poorly controlled asthma increases risk of complications
Vaccination and early treatment help protect the lungs
✅ Support at Alpha Care Annex
We provide:
Asthma screening and diagnosis
Patient education and trigger control guidance
Inhaler prescriptions and monitoring
Gentle, professional care for both children and adults
Early care prevents severe attacks. If you or your child has frequent cough, wheeze, or breathing difficulty, visit Alpha Care Annex for support. 🌿

🩺 ACUTE & CHRONIC TONSILLITIS – SIMPLE HEALTH TALK
Tonsillitis means swelling and infection of the tonsils (the small tissues at the back of the throat).
It affects both children and adults.
Acute tonsillitis comes suddenly and clears with treatment
Chronic tonsillitis keeps coming back or never fully goes away
🔴 Common Symptoms
Painful sore throat
Pain when swallowing food or drinks
Fever
Swollen tonsils (sometimes with white spots)
Bad breath
Swollen glands on the neck
Children may refuse to eat or be very irritable
🧪 How Tonsillitis Is Diagnosed
The doctor will:
Look at the throat
Ask about symptoms and how often they occur
Do tests if needed to check for bacterial infection
💉 Use of Panadar (Benzathine Penicillin)
Panadar is a long-acting antibiotic injection
It is used when tonsillitis is caused by bacteria, especially strep throat
One injection works in the body for a long time
Helps clear infection and prevents repeat attacks
⚠️ Given only after confirming the patient is not allergic to penicillin
🛡️ Why Preventive (Prophylactic) Treatment Is Important
Some people get tonsillitis many times a year.
Preventive treatment helps:
Stop frequent infections
Protect children and adults from serious complications
Reduce hospital visits and missed school or work
❤️ Tonsillitis and Heart Problems
If strep throat is not treated properly, it can lead to rheumatic fever.
This illness can damage the heart valves, causing rheumatic heart disease, which is lifelong.
👉 Treating tonsillitis early protects the heart.
🏥 Treatment Available at ALPHA CARE ANNEX
At ALPHA CARE ANNEX, we provide:
Accurate diagnosis
Safe treatment for acute and chronic tonsillitis
Benzathine penicillin (Panadar) when indicated
Gentle, professional care for children and adults
