Erectile dysfunction is a condition where one cannot get and maintain a firm erection for sexual intercourse. The term impotence is also used for the same condition, although the usage of the term is now restricted. There are multiple reasons for erectile dysfunction or ED. However, its risk can be reduced. Read on to know six tips to reduce the risk of ED. Maintain a healthy diet Maintaining a diet rich in natural foods, including fruits and vegetables, is considered healthy and reduces the risk of ED. Whole grains should also be included in the diet. Some foods to be avoided to reduce the risk of ED include red meat and processed foods. Principally, one should avoid anything that is not good for the heart.   Avoid high blood cholesterol and blood pressure High blood pressure and high cholesterol restrict the flow of blood through blood vessels, including the blood vessels that are responsible for bringing blood to the penis. While the doctor may check blood pressure upon visits, it is advisable to check blood pressure oneself at home using a portable blood pressure device. Lose weight Obesity is directly responsible for erectile dysfunction. As per studies, a man with a 42-inch waist has 50% higher chances of getting erectile dysfunction than a man having a 32-inch waist.

Hyperhidrosis is a common skin condition that causes excessive sweating. Hyperhydrosis arises when sweat gland stimulating nerves become overactive. Here are some of the types and triggers of hyperhidrosis. Types of Hyperhidrosis There are mainly two types of Hyperhidrosis – Primary Hyperhidrosis and Secondary Hyperhidrosis. Primary Hyperhidrosis Primary Hyperhidrosis is a condition where a person experiences excessive sweating without any cause. There is mostly no underlying medical condition that can be attributed to primary hyperhidrosis. The causes of primary hyperhidrosis are unknown, but many studies show that it may be heredity. It mostly begins either in childhood or after puberty. It is also known as primary focal hyperhidrosis as focal areas of the body such as feet, hands, underarms, head, and face are affected. Most people with primary hyperhidrosis may have excessive bouts of sweating at least once a week but not sweat while sleeping. Secondary Hyperhidrosis Secondary hyperhidrosis occurs because of an underlying medical condition such as infections, diabetes, heart disease, and hormonal imbalances. It could also be caused because an individual had a side effect to certain medications. Secondary hyperhidrosis is more common in adults than it is in children or adolescents. Secondary hyperhidrosis affects generalized areas, and an individual may also observe heavy sweating while sleeping.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) most commonly affects babies and children. As a result of the condition, they cannot use their muscles properly. In a child with SMA, there is a breakdown of the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, and essentially, the brain stops sending messages to control muscle movement. It is a very rare genetic disease and is found in 1 out of 10,000 people or 1-2 out of 100,000. In this article we will talk about the risk factors, diagnosis, and prevention tips for SMA. Risk factors Doctors and scientists have not yet found one single cause of SMA. However, some habits and lifestyle choices are likelier to develop complications, these are known as risk factors. They are: Sedentary lifestyle or inactivity for longer periods can lead to SMA. If one has motor weakness, being inactive can cause health problems, such as respiratory issues, constipation, and bedsores. SMA affects the immune system. Hence, one should avoid contact with people with contagious diseases. Coming in contact with a person with an infectious disease can slow down or weaken your immune system. Poor diet or food lacking sufficient nutrition does not help the body fight infections. Lack of nutrients makes the muscles weak, leading to inability to perform minor daily tasks.

In most cases of prostate cancer, tumors do not spread to the other parts of the body. While treatment options are available for common cancer types, not much research has been done on the uncommon ones. Here we will talk about some of the rare and common types of prostate cancer found in men: Adenocarcinoma Adenocarcinoma accounts for 95-99 percent of all prostate cancer types and is, therefore, one of the common types of prostate cancer. It arises in the glandular cells. This kind of cancer occurs when cell genes start to mutate and begin to multiply. This causes interference with tissue functions. The mutation of the abnormal cells can also cause tumors to grow and extend to other body parts. Prostate cancer of the small cell Prostate cancer of the small cell is one of the rare forms of prostate cancer. It can rapidly spread to other parts of the body. It doesn’t produce PSA because of its aggressive nature. This means a transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or biopsy is required to diagnose the small cell’s prostate cancer. In most cases, the small cell’s prostate cancer is diagnosed only at an advanced stage when it has spread to other parts of the body.
