If you have injured your joint and even after taking a break from Sports and other activities, You still experience symptoms such as pain. It could be that you’re suffering from an undiagnosed sprain. To better explain what that is. Let me show you the shoulder joint. This, which you can see here is the humerus. Now, The head of the humerus is articulating with the glenoid fossa of the scapula. The scapula is the shoulder blade. This which you can see here is the carco. Humeral ligament and ligaments help stabilize the joints in the human body. What can usually happen is that upon an examination, The doctor does not notice that the joint is unstable in a certain position or during a certain movement. Normally, The patient takes a posture. A Specific posture when an X-Ray Scan or an MRI scan is performed and we might not immediately notice that a ligament is ruptured that is what the sprain is an overstretched or a ruptured ligament. So, What happens next? Well, The patient leaves the clinic and soon the hematoma and the swelling disappear and everything appears normal but the instability in the joint remains and as the patient uses this joint or tries to Bear more weight become Physically Active the symptoms might come back and the pain might persist. These ligaments must not always be completely ruptured. They can be partially ruptured and that is where all these issues start. Joints are stabilized in different directions by different ligaments. These ligaments are different from joint to joint and they have different functions ligaments are usually present on all sides of the joint and they usually have their primary function during a specific movement or in a specific position. Besides these ligaments additional stabilities provided to the Joint by the surrounding muscles and this is not to be underestimated. So for example, Around the shoulder joint, There are muscles that we commonly call the rotator cuff muscles. They are a very important stabilizing component for the shoulder joint and they do stabilize The Joint but that further complicates inaccurate diagnosis of a minor injury or a rupture of a ligament. Through this temporary stabilization by the muscles a joint might appear perfectly fine and healthy but is it really why does it hurt and this is where there are two things, Where doctors can truly help two things that I would like to explain, The first thing is a proper clinical examination that is performed in order to identify if a possible instability of the joint is present additionally during the clinical examination. We might find that the patient experiences spasms of the surrounding muscles because of the pain in the joint or along the ligament. These muscles also can experience a spasm because they help stabilize the injured joint. A skilled clinician could be able to palpate ligaments from their origin all the way to the insertion and the patient might experience pain upon this palpation. Now not every ligament can be palpated but if it can it takes skills and knowledge to be able to do this. Before I explain this, Really second important thing that a doctor has to know and has to perform. I would like to ask you to help us reach other people who suffer from joint instability and Pain by subscribing to this Channel and liking this video and I’m asking you to do this because YouTube and other platforms will simply not suggest this video to people suffering from these symptoms. If we don’t get enough of likes and subscriptions that’s just how their algorithms work so you can help us inform other people as well. Now, Back to the topic if you’re already subscribed, The second thing that can be done is to perform an MRI scan in order to identify which ligament has been injured. This is really important because an MRI scan is capable of identifying and displaying soft tissues such as ligaments in the human body but sometimes it can happen that a ligament has torn a part of the bone as it ruptured or a bone simply fractured in the near proximity of the spot where the pain is present so it is really smart to actually perform an X-Ray Scan first in order to exclude a possible fracture. It is really important to have complete Diagnostics performed in accordance with the guidelines published by the American Association for the surgery of trauma because workouts Sports and training sessions using your joints without properly identifying what is causing the pain and instability can irreversibly and permanently damage your joints and also progress to a much worse scenario in which the joint becomes immobile. It is not easy to perform these clinical examinations because every joint is different and it is not easy to understand and properly analyze these Medical Imaging scans so we could all benefit from these videos. If you’re a doctor and you want to make videos like these then go to anatomsky.com but if you have more questions about pain and sprain or joint issues then go to simtomsky.com/help/sprain

Depression Caused By Vitamin D Deficiency
Being sad or experiencing depression can be life-changing. It not only affects your mood and your feelings but it also can affect your job and school as well. No matter how much someone loves you, If you’re constantly depressed and sad. They might be less attracted to you. Simply because their brain Associates less happy moments with you. Now, Somebody might be a very thoughtful and meaningful person and not you know they find meaning in everything. So, They will still develop some affection but that is often not the case. Depression can cause chaos in someone’s life and worst thing about it is that we often don’t know what to do against it. Sure, You can treat it with antidepressants or simply try to ignore it and move on with your life somehow. However, Sometimes depression is caused by an underlying organic issue. Psychological symptoms almost identical to those of pure psychogenic. Depression can be caused by vitamin D deficiency. Furthermore vitamin D deficiency can cause a secondary hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroidism can lead to depression and of course you can then try to treat vitamin D deficiency by simply taking more vitamin D or getting more sunlight exposure. Things however are not always that simple a vitamin D can have dangerous consequences such as skeletal deformations and fractures as well as osteoporosis osteoporosis can lead to death if the femur the longest bone in the human body is fractured and the bleeding is not stopped. Lower vitamin D is also associated with lower immune Readiness of the body and therefore patients are more easily infected and they can more easily end up having lethal conditions such as sepsis but besides these consequences of vitamin D deficiency the causes of it the underlying causes for vitamin D deficiency can be very dangerous and lethal as well vitamin D production depends on multiple organs and that includes skin that gets sunlight exposure but it also includes gastrointestinal tract and besides that also liver and kidneys so the most common cause we think about when it comes to vitamin D deficiency is this lack of sun light exposure but chronic inflammatory bowel diseases can cause vitamin D deficiency as well and so can chronic kidney disease vitamin D deficiency is extremely common in a liver patients and liver failure patients and last but not least cancers such as lymphomas can cause it as well. So, the therapy for vitamin D deficiency or simple prevention can be simple but is it enough vitamin D3 can be taken orally in different dosage is recommended for different groups of patients. We differentiate between the elderly and children but also between healthy population and population with additional risk factors but because of all of these issues. I’ve mentioned and Illustrated it is not smart to Simply assume that only sunlight exposure or a pill can fix it. A skilled doctor should be able to recognize signs and symptoms that indicated something might be wrong and this might not only increase the patient’s life quality if these causes are treated but it can also save the patient’s life. So, depression itself has to be investigated as well not every depression is simply psychogenic these dangerous and organic causes for depression or vitamin D deficiency have to be ruled out. Both of you doctors and patients we have something for you if you’re a doctor and you want to make videos like these then go to anatomsky.com but if you’re more interested in depression then go to symphomsky.com/help/depression we try to help the best we can.
Iron Deficiency Anemia – Healed With Water
How to treat iron deficiency “Anemia”? Treating iron deficiency anemia usually seems like a simple task. Well, What has to be done is simply increase the iron levels in your blood. Well, You can do so by increasing the iron intake. Well, You can do that through diet or just taking some supplements, eating food that’s rich in iron. It might do the trick but in certain conditions such as let’s say bleeding in our gastrointestinal tract. so here we have the esophagus and then somewhere around here is the stomach and down there we have the small intestines and the large intestines and if there is a bleeding. It actually might cause more demand for iron because we’re losing these red blood cells that contain iron. So, If we lose red blood cells, We have to build them and they look kind of like a disc shape so if we look at them a little bit from above that would be their shape and so conditions such as kidney failure can also affect our iron levels because kidneys do have an influence on how Iron is absorbed in our gastrointestinal tract. Right, So the simple idea. Well, I’m going to eat iron-rich food or I’m going to take some supplements. It might not do the trick. Right? It may not be that simple so simply without a lot of Investigation assigning the iron deficiency anemia to one of these causes such as bad diet you know or just trying to bluntly treat it with more iron supplements can be a problem. We need to understand what is the underlying condition. Iron deficiency anemia can be caused by a whole variety of diseases such as inflammation that comes with diseases or the bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract as I’ve said cancers and many different conditions in different organ systems. So, Definitely iron deficiency in general requires an investigation of patients health but also search for these specific diseases but if we can safely exclude all these deadly causes and serious conditions and we are convinced right. We are convinced that iron deficiency anemia could be simply fixed by taking some supplements, some iron supplements. Well, Then there is a wonderful place on this planet for that or a place where you could actually get a therapy, get your cure but also have a vacation in a country called Yugoslavia which doesn’t exist anymore. There was a hospital and a rehab center in a town of cerebrinita a lot of iron deficient patients used to come to that area and spend weekends in that hospital. The major reason for that are water. Well, Which contain high iron concentration and these Waters with iron are actually 100 natural. No one is adding iron to the water. It’s there just from nature right, as a gift from the nature. A solution contains the iron that is that did not corrode so the iron did not oxidize yet so the water is clear right. However, The area around it surrounding, The river is actually Brown. It’s brown because the iron is oxidizing in fact there are no plants growing around it because of the iron concentration. The iron in the water is not brown because it didn’t corrode yet so this water cannot be transported if they pack it in plastic bottles it becomes oxidized the iron and then it turns brown so Therefore, all the patients who wanted a nice weekend or a nice vacation relaxing in the nature and getting this natural source of iron. We’re able to have it by coming through that by going to that place right and the war broke out in the 90s and the genocide that has followed has left the town of cerbernitza empty and abandoned the neighboring houses and hospitals were destroyed and burned to the ground and even though in the past 30 years the peace has prevailed and all the people who caused the War are long time in prison. These Healing Waters never received proper promotion and they have been forgotten some locals from time to time. If they’re diagnosed with iron deficiency know about these Waters and they go there to get their health ocean besides the major well which has iron enriched water. There are other nearby water wells that are used for treating diseases of sinuses and certain skin conditions if you want to know more about this place then go to simtomsky.com/help/anemia but if you’re a doctor and you want to make videos like these then go to anatomsky.com
Is It Really Constipation – How to tell
I mean, We’ve all been there. You know having trouble passing stool and it has happened to many of us but we were able to figure it out. You know or it just went away on its own. We usually tend to assume that serious conditions are causing it and that could be true you know. Uh! One might have Ops the patient in conditions such as the stenosis of the gastrointestinal tract. So, For example here you have your esophagus then you have your stomach over here and then you got small intestines and then the large intestines and anywhere you could. You know in some patients cancers as cars. Could be present but in reality many patients don’t even have constipation and they just assume it. So not every time you have harder consistency or lower frequency of your stool can you easily assume it’s constipation. So, Constipation can be diagnosed using strictly defined clinical criteria and that brings us to the actual question. Well, What criteria? what is the constipation? So the correct definition of constipation is basically passing stool happens less than three times a week and that continues on for a period longer than three months. Right besides this objective measure where we can just, you know look at the clock and the calendar and see the actual result? um, Personal impression of incomplete passing of the stool. Uh, Bloating in the abdomen and painful abdomen. So, Those are the Hallmark symptoms of this condition. So, If you simply sometimes have issues it doesn’t mean that it’s constipation right away. In such cases, Medical treatment may not be necessary but simple lifestyle modification can be helpful but if you truly believe that you have these symptoms and what if these symptoms are extreme but they only last two months. right? what if you do have these symptoms. right? but they didn’t but the symptoms were there only for two months not three months you know well what if the constipation doesn’t fit into this definition but yet it is causing you extreme and tremendous pain issues and that’s of course making you sad while in such cases treatments can be considered and there is a whole variety of treatments that we will explain in the next video.

Tired And Itching – Is It The Hodgkin Cancer?
Feeling tired and having problems with itching? It is so common and so general that it’s really hard to pinpoint the cause for these symptoms. One way, I like to go about these things is to make sure there is nothing dangerous or lethal or deadly, That is causing these issues and so today i would like to talk about one deadly cause for tiredness and itching and yet in most cases, A curable cause you know when you are a teenager and you have your first kiss. It is highly probable that you will contract a virus called the ebv virus. The disease that this virus is causing is called the kissing disease because teenagers usually have it. You see that virus should not cause teenagers to die or something that serious. I mean, usually it could cause for example swelling of the lymph nodes or something like that some general viral infection symptoms but more importantly, That virus is associated with a more dangerous disease called hodgkin lymphoma. And that is a cancer. Around 40 percent of hodgkin lymphomas have been found to be associated with the ebv virus. This here is a reed sternberg cell groups of these cells distinguish hodgkin lymphoma from other non-hodgkin lymphomas. They look like owl’s eyes which is quite unusual, They look that way because those are nuclei inside of this cell. This cell has two nuclei that is unusual for a human cell. Human cells usually should have only one nucleus but these cells have two nuclei and besides that the clonal genoviral genome can be found in these cells. Hotchkin lymphoma also has the so-called hodgkin cells. These cells along with reed sternberg cells over here exhibit these membrane proteins. These membrane proteins allow us to identify them through proper diagnostic methods. These are membrane proteins and each cell exhibits different configuration of these proteins. So, For example, Reed sternberg cells have cd15 and cd30 cd15 and cd30 membrane proteins. Hodgkin cells also exhibit a whole variety of different membrane proteins and these cells can also be seen in a histological examination. How else would we be able to paint them if we were not able to actually see them but before we diagnose a patient with a hodgkin lymphoma and before we use sophisticated diagnostic procedures we have to assume that it is a hodgkin lymphoma or it could be a hodgkin lymphoma and that’s why we are looking at these other symptoms that might come along with tiredness and itching. We have to look at the other symptoms to understand should we actually do these blood tests and look at the lab results in the cells closely. We sadly cannot just randomly do all possible diagnostic tests without proper indications and so in this case if the patient is experiencing tiredness and itching we have to look for the swollen lymph nodes. Obvious regions we have to inspect are the lymph nodes of the neck area for example or inguinal region. Well besides that we need to look for these so-called b symptoms. They are somewhat common actually very common in patients who suffer from cancer and they include three things night sweats, fever and weight loss, especially a combination of these symptoms but if some of these symptoms is present with tiredness and itching then we have to think about possibility that the patient is suffering from a hodgkin lymphoma yet if none of these symptoms is present you know if we cannot find any swollen lymph nodes if the patient doesn’t exhibit any b symptoms well it could be that the patient simply does not recall his accurate weight and not every doctor is skilled enough to easily recognize every possibility of a swollen lymph node. Lymph nodes exist all over our body so we have to also consider the history of the patient the clinical history of the patient and if the patient actually has experienced pain but not every pain. These lymph nodes that i have just explained should not be painful. They should not be painful if they are painful then it could be something else but if they are not painful and swollen well that is an indication that the patient is suffering from a lymphoma but what kind of pain is actually indicating the presence of hodgkin lymphoma pain after drinking alcohol and that is quite specific if it’s together in the combination with other symptoms hodgkin lymphoma can be only diagnosed using proper diagnostic procedures and methods. If you want to know more about hodgkin lymphoma then go to our website simtomsky.com/help/hodgeking but if you’re a doctor and if you want to make videos like these then go to anatomsky.com and both patients doctors can subscribe to our channel and help us reach more people who might experience these symptoms.
