EDUCATIONAL TUESDAY!!!! WHAT DOES THE COLOR IS MY SNOT OR SPUTUM MEAN??????????

Sputum color can indicate different health issues, with clear or white often being normal or signaling congestion, while yellow or green phlegm frequently suggests a viral or bacterial infection as the body fights it off. Red or pink phlegm indicates bleeding, which can be from a minor irritation or a more serious condition, and dark brown or black sputum can be caused by old blood, inhaled dust or soot, or a serious infection, all of which require medical attention.

The color of your phlegm can tell you what’s going on with your respiratory health. Different colored hues may signify different conditions or infections affecting your respiratory system.

White or clear phlegm: This is normal.
White phlegm with yellowish tint: It could be normal or signal an infection or inflammation.
Yellow or dark yellow phlegm: It could mean a viral or bacterial infection or chronic inflammation.
Green phlegm: It could mean a viral or bacterial infection or chronic inflammation.
Pink phlegm: It could mean heart failure.
Red phlegm: Bloody phlegm can come from the nose or lungs and signal irritation, infection or cancer.
Dark brown phlegm: This is concerning for an infection, such as bacterial pneumonia.
Gray phlegm: This is likely normal and tends to be a variation of white phlegm.
Black phlegm: This is rare, but it can mean old blood or be from something you inhaled.

Regardless of the color, WE CAN HELP!!!! Stop by 136 Block Street today and let us show you!!! STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY!!!

EDUCATIONAL TUESDAY!!! SKIN INFECTIONS.....VERY COMMON THIS TIME OF YEAR WITH THE WEATHER CHANGING......

The four main types of skin infections are bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic. Examples include boils and impetigo (bacterial), warts and shingles (viral), ringworm and athlete's foot (fungal), and scabies and lice (parasitic). Each type is caused by a different microorganism and requires specific treatment, so it is important to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

Bacterial
Caused by bacteria, often entering through a cut or wound.
Symptoms can include red, swollen areas of the skin, warmth, oozing fluid, and pus-filled bumps.
Examples: Impetigo, cellulitis, boils, and folliculitis.

Viral
Caused by viruses like herpes and papillomavirus.
Symptoms can appear as blisters, warts, or sores.
Examples: Warts, shingles, chickenpox, and cold sores.

Fungal
Often thrive in warm, moist areas of the body.
Symptoms frequently include circular, scaly, and itchy patches with well-defined borders.
Examples: Ringworm, athlete's foot, and yeast infections.

Parasitic
Caused by tiny parasites that infest the skin.
Symptoms can include intense itching.
Examples: Scabies, lice, and creeping eruption (caused by hookworms).

Skin infections can look similar, but it's important to know the cause for proper care.

EDUCATIONAL TUESDAY!!! WHY AM I COUGHING?????????????????

Cough causes range from common irritants like smoke and allergies to medical conditions such as asthma, postnasal drip, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Infections (like the common cold or flu), certain medications (like ACE inhibitors), and chronic lung diseases (such as COPD) can also cause or contribute to a cough. A cough is your body's reflex to clear irritants or mucus from your throat and airways.

Common causes
Irritants: Smoke, dust, pollen, pet dander, and other pollutants or chemicals can irritate the airways.

Infections: Colds, flu, and sinus infections are common causes of acute (short-term) coughs.

Allergies: Allergic reactions can cause a persistent cough.
Medical conditions

Postnasal drip: Mucus from the nose runs down the back of the throat, triggering a cough.

Asthma: This can cause wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath, along with a cough.

GERD: Stomach acid flows back up the esophagus, irritating the throat and causing a cough.

Chronic lung diseases: These include COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), bronchiectasis, and others, often associated with chronic coughing.

Infections: Infections further down in the airways, like bronchitis and pneumonia, can cause a cough with mucus.

Medications
Certain drugs, most notably ACE inhibitors for high blood pressure, can cause a dry cough as a side effect.
Nasal sprays can sometimes trigger a cough.

EDUCATIONAL TUESDAY!!! LET'S TALK ABOUT DIABETIC FOOT ISSUES.

WE ARE HAVING A DIABETIC SHOE EVENT SOON!!!!

Diabetic foot care involves daily washing, drying, and inspection of your feet for cuts, blisters, and sores. You should wear comfortable, well-fitting shoes and socks, and never go barefoot. Other essential steps include trimming toenails straight across, moisturizing dry skin (but not between your toes), and seeing a doctor for professional foot checks at least once a year.
Daily care
Inspect: Check your feet every day for cuts, redness, swelling, sores, or blisters. Use a mirror to see the bottoms of your feet if needed.
Wash: Wash your feet daily in warm, not hot, water with mild soap.
Dry: Gently pat your feet dry, paying special attention to drying between the toes.
Moisturize: Apply lotion to dry skin to prevent cracking, but avoid putting it between your toes.
Protect: Wear socks and well-fitting shoes, even indoors, to prevent injury.
Nail and skin care
Trim nails: Cut toenails straight across and file any sharp edges.
Avoid DIY: Do not try to cut corns or calluses yourself.
Professional help: See a foot doctor (podiatrist) if you have difficulty trimming your nails, very thick nails, or need professional treatment for corns and calluses.
What to avoid
Do not go barefoot: Always wear footwear to protect your feet from injury.
Do not use harsh chemicals: Avoid using medicated corn removers or harsh chemicals on your feet.
Do not use excessive heat: Do not use heating pads or hot water bottles on your feet.
