How to prevent foot cramps. #5964

Muscle cramps commonly occur in the feet and legs, often during the middle of the night when you are sleeping. A random restless or stretching movement can induce a hard contraction of a single muscle that can’t be voluntarily relaxed. Overuse of a muscle, dehydration, injury, muscle strain or simply holding a position for prolonged periods may result in a muscle cramp.
To reduce the risk of muscle cramps, drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, warm up before your workouts, cool down afterward and don’t over fatigue your muscles. If you often get foot or leg cramps at night, stretch your feet and legs before going to bed.

Wellness #6514

Gallbladder the little organ under your liver can be host to a common complaint: gallstones (usually crystalized cholesterol from bile), which can cause abdominal pain. To avoid them, maintain a normal weight, exercise regularly and get your fat from nonmeat sources (e.g., fish, avocados or nuts).

Fall allergies help #6544

For a fast relief try pushing your tongue against the roof of your mouth for 5 seconds, then use one finger to press the spot between your eyebrows for 5 seconds; continue alternating for several times. This causes the “vomer-bone,” which runs through the nasal passages, to rock back and forth, easing congestion in about 20-25 seconds. Repeat as needed.

Bladder Problems and Aging #6570

“As a man’s prostate gets larger he can’t empty his bladder as well,” says Travis L. Bullock, M.D. board certified in urology and female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery, “and then he’s going to go more often.” Women, too, may have more bladder issues as they age. “After menopause, they’re at much higher risk (for urinary leakage),” says Melissa Kaufman, M.D., Ph.D., and associate professor of urologic surgery at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. “Once you have hormone loss during aging, (tissues in the pelvic floor and bladder) don’t rebuild as readily as they used to, so it predisposes to urinary incontinence.” While aging can set in motion changes in the body that affect the bladder, both Kaufman and Bullock are quick to point out that incontinence is not something you should simply accept as part of getting older. “It’s a very treatable problem,” says Bullock. “It’s not something people have to live with.”
