Children's memory - the cause of alcoholism

Passion for alcohol often develops in the childhood memories, as scientists have found. Children whose parents drink more frequently and themselves begin to abuse alcohol and become victims of alcoholism.

Parents should not regularly appear in front of the children with a glass of wine or a gin and tonic in the evening. Children's Memory   carefully captures such moments, because the child is constantly needed an example to follow. The image of the father or mother with alcohol in their hands is deposited in Children's storage   and it is imprinted in the subconscious, so growing up, children themselves involuntarily drawn to alcohol. It's origins teenage alcoholism .

If the parents are regularly applied to alcohol, their children can enjoy a drink in 13 years, as found by experts from independent research Joseph Roundtree Foundation. The Foundation conducted the survey on the background of the ever-growing concerns in the UK about the ever-growing problem teenage alcoholism .

It was found that 25% of adolescents 13-14 years of age have not once were applied to alcohol. And by 15-16 years in the taste of vodka or wine know more than half of the children. Of these, a quarter drank at least five or six doses in the last time been touched alcohol. This is significantly higher than the recommended daily limit for adults.

By age 16 to 80% of teenagers have experienced a state of extreme intoxication, and in many cases, they drank deliberately. Although this issue decisive role model belongs to friends and friends of adolescents, the role of the family is also important. In particular, the researchers found that the degree of the negative consequences of drinking observation dad or mom tantamount, as if the first dose of alcohol the child personally tried in six years.

Allergies to dust: what we do not know about it?

As the results of a survey conducted by a major Russian news site, only 56% of people, including those who do suffer from allergies to dust supposedly are informed about who is the real source of their suffering.

Allergy to mites

In fact, the allergen acts as house dust mites, with most of it affects children. Doctors have found that two-thirds of children with asthma was the cause of the disease is allergic to house dust mites (KDP).

Cold or allergy?
Intrigue allergy KDP that it has similar symptoms to SARS, so cold, general weakness and other signs of distress adults often blamed on the cold, cold weather, and a weak immune system. However, doctors warn, if the painful condition regularly pursued for a year, in autumn and winter intensifies, the most likely reason is the body's reaction to house dust mites.

For reference:
According to an anonymous European study of 4016 people in Europe (France, Germany, Italy and Spain), 57% of respondents admitted that they felt constantly recurring symptoms within a year, coinciding with the symptoms allergy to mites   house dust (constant runny nose, sneezing attacks, nasal congestion, eye irritation and breathing difficulties). 60% of them linked the symptoms with the onset of cold weather, 50% believed the cause of pollen allergy, 28% - dust and only 21% - dust mites, among whom 15% had a diagnosis "allergic to the KDP." Moreover, all 57% of the respondents confirmed that well-informed about the allergy to mites and its consequences.

Allergy symptoms negatively affect quality of life for allergy sufferers. Rhinitis, conjunctivitis, dermatitis - only a partial list of symptoms. Any of these becomes a cause of ill health, deterioration of attention, sleep loss. In children, it often leads to a decline in energy and underachievement at school. In addition, with inadequate treatment of allergy to the KDP may develop into a chronic form, and "overgrown" other forms of the disease: an allergy to pollen, cats, and other irritants.

Dust mites - who are they?
There are about 50,000 species of mites, and all of them are harmless to humans. Dust mites live almost everywhere. They are very small in size and reach almost 0, 6 mm, so to see them with the naked eye is impossible. Do not believe it, but in one gram of dust they can accommodate up to 2 thousand pieces, and the mattress - up to half a million. However, house dust mites are sinatropnymi organisms, ie, living among the people, but not causing him harm. They feed on dead skin cells, particles of hair, nails, dandruff.

As the mites cause allergies?
Despite its harmless, a few common species in Europe contain its waste products and protein bodies, which are strong irritants. The cause of allergy are not only living mites, even after their death they cause allergic reactions in humans. Considered dangerous concentration of 500 insects per gram of dust that triggers an asthma attack. If the number exceeds 1,000, then the person with a predisposition to develop chronic allergic rhinitis.

Is it possible to destroy dust mites?
According to popular myth, dust mites can "zapylesosit." But it is not. You destroy only a small fraction of organisms from the surface, but the pillows, upholstered furniture, toys will continue to multiply other colonies. Of course, dry and wet cleaning, frequent airing, observe the temperature in the apartment, wiping books, giving up carpets and other hygiene help reduce allergens and reduce their impact on the body. But even if the house you get rid of mites, then they will meet you at someone at a party, school, kindergarten, at work and elsewhere, so it is completely removed from my life dust mites fail.

How to help with allergies?
The best remedy for allergies - is the destruction of the stimulus, the allergen is an exception, however, as we said, make it virtually impossible. Symptomatic therapy of local or general purpose (antihistamine drops, sprays, tablets) is not able to resolve individual from disease, as well as to prevent the complications. Its main goal - to alleviate the symptoms of allergies, but to eliminate the disease is treated not.

According to doctors, allergists, the only way to alleviate the patient's condition is allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT). Moreover, it not only eliminates the symptoms of the disease and does not allow its transition into a more severe form, a treat allergy. The method comprises administering to the patient increasing doses of allergen extract, which is the cause of the disease. As a result, the immune system becomes resistant to the previously intolerable allergens. The positive effect of the treatment is observed in the first year of immunotherapy, and after a full course (3 to 5 years), the patient begins a long remission. Depending on the drug treatment can be carried out for both adults and children from five years old, but not necessarily prescribed by a doctor. The main thing - to avoid common mistakes, and at the first symptoms of the disease to apply to the allergist, especially when it comes to the health of the child.

Fedoskova TM, MD, physician-patient department of the Research Institute of Immunology:
"Diagnosis is complicated by the similarity mite allergy symptoms with chronic respiratory diseases non-allergic nature, and the children who are allergic to house dust mites are especially prone to infection and inflammation with symptoms such as otitis media, sinusitis, tonsillitis. In adult patients, it is - sleep disturbance and its consequences. Without adequate treatment can develop asthma. To avoid complications and to stabilize the allergy applied allergen-specific immunotherapy. Today is the only way to get rid of allergies for a long time and stop progression of the disease in more severe forms. Matches drug allergist in accordance with the severity of the disease, age and way of life of the patient. "

The researchers believe that the coefficient of being infected Malaria It can be reduced by 90%, while the micro-organism can be destroyed within 10-15 years in all areas where it still prevails.

More developed countries, such as Brazil and Saudi Arabia, or the state with a small population, most succeed in malaria control Scientists believe. In countries with very poor people, such as Angola, Chad and Somalia, this task becomes more difficult.

The same applies to countries such as Pakistan and Afghanistan, who suffer not only from an unstable political situation, but also on the very weak health systems.

Prostatitis is treated sex

Prostatitis and sex? It would seem that between these concepts have nothing to do, but quite a bit to understand the physiology of the male and it becomes obvious that it is possible and such!

It is known that prostatitis   - An inflammation of the prostate gland, which occurs most often because of stagnation in the prostate gland. Actually because it usually affects men, leading a sedentary lifestyle and work. Moreover, according to statistics, only in Russia suffers from it about 35% of men aged 25 to 45 years, that is in full blossom.

There is another significant risk factor for prostate, which, by the way, not all aware - a long abstinence. The fact that no sex gland function remains unclaimed, and it dooms her to stagnation.

Treatment of prostatitis is aimed primarily at improving the drainage of the prostate that is emptying it of accumulated secretions. That is why in addition to drug therapy, urologists frequently prescribed prostate massage. The complex it improves blood circulation in the tissues and it stimulates the secretory activity, preventing the stagnation of juice in the gland.

Almost similar processes that occur under the influence of finger urologist, observed during orgasm, namely, there is a progressive reduction of muscle cancer with simultaneous evacuation of secretions, which, of course, eliminates congestion in the tissues of the prostate.

Agree treatment of sex is much more pleasant than the prostate massage, but there is one catch: during inflammation of the prostate gland   testosterone synthesis in the testes is reduced, which "kills" sexual desire. Do not contribute to libido and pain during orgasm, which are observed in chronic prostatitis. Meanwhile, the secret continues to accumulate, and inflammation is enhanced even more. How to break this vicious circle?

To eliminate congestion in the prostate, doctors recommend that patients with a diagnosis of prostatitis take Vitaprost. It improves the function of the prostate, reduces swelling and inflammation, and simultaneously relieves the symptoms, including disturbances of erectile and orgasmic function. After removing the most acute symptoms, you can finally resume the intimate life, moreover, it is desirable to have sex every day and not once. Experts assure that this regular intimacy helps men regain a high level of testosterone and improve the condition of the prostate. So you love your passionate and women's health!

Gout is returned: a new old epidemic

Aristocrats disease gout, which previously suffered from completely alone kings, lords and dukes, are increasingly attacking ordinary people. In the UK alone the number of gout patients in the last 10 years has doubled.

The reason for this sudden surge of disease gout Which is observed in both developed and developing countries, including Russia, is an overreliance on food and drinks, as well as a sedentary lifestyle.

Most often, the acid builds up because of the abundance of fatty, unhealthy foods and large amounts of alcohol in the diet. Researchers in Australia recently decided to see how much has been extended gout   in New Zealand, compared with England from 1999 to 2009.

It turned out that the number of emergency admissions due to gout in the UK during this period increased from 1875 to 3496, that is almost doubled. The annual growth in the number of cases amounted to 7, 2%, which is faster than in New Zealand, with its 5, 5%. These studies are published in the Journal of Rheumatology.

"The incidence of gout is increasing because of the bad habits of people, - says Professor neyrorevmatologii University of Manchester Anthony James. - We have too much drink, we eat the wrong foods, almost no exercise and suffer from excess weight. Only a tiny part of the victims of gout are classified as thin people. Alcohol, especially beer contributes to the development of uric acid in the liver. And it also reduces the intensity of its output in the urine. "

Feng Shui apartment: bedroom and kitchen

Feng Shui says that the appearance of the apartment reflects the prosperity and harmony of the family ...

The bedroom and kitchen are perhaps the main room in the apartment - it is in their area there are the most important life-sustaining processes. We will talk about some of the plants, which feng shui apartments   It recommends following in the design of bedroom and kitchen.

Feng shui bedroom

Feng shui bedroom He says that first of all in the bedroom should be cozy and quiet - here do not have to enter any random sounds and odors. The bedroom should be located as far from the door as possible ie do not have a common wall with the kitchen and the bathroom: at least, do not put at the adjacent wall bed.

Quite a popular theory that sleep is necessary to strictly head north, does not apply to this Feng Shui. Universal recommendations in this regard does not exist: in particular bed bedroom place so as to avoid negative consequences, can only be a specialist.

Please note that the bed should not be sent "boom" from the corners of closets or cabinets, fixtures, antennas. And under the bed is not necessary to keep any unnecessary things - to the life-giving energy to circulate freely, the space under the bed should be free.

Feng Shui teaches that the marriage bed should be held as low as possible signs of separation. Therefore, the spouses is better if the bed is one unified for two. The same applies to the mattress - buy one big mattress, not two individual. And one big general blanket. If you sleep on a sofa bed, and a change of scenery is not yet possible, then cover the bed before going to bed with a thick soft blanket.

The door to the bedroom should not be directly opposite the bed. However, the bed should be positioned so that it lies on the people still could not see the door - in this case will not occur discomfort and apprehension.

Now the mirrors. The mirror is considered a magical objects that can both reflect the negative energy, and strengthen it. Placing the bed in relation to the mirror should be so that the box is out of the field of reflection and it does not arise "twins" of sleeping people. If the bed is opposite the wardrobe with mirrored doors, then in front of it at night is better to put a barrier, such as a screen.

And most importantly: the bedroom should only be sleeping! In this room, Feng Shui, you can not work or pedaling the bike. Even the shelves should not be, not to mention the computer. All activities, business life should take place outside the walls of the bedroom, the space which is intended only for rest and lovemaking.

Feng Shui kitchen

Kitchen is the place of vigorous activity, so there should prevail Yang energy, but so as not to violate the general energy balance. Feng Shui kitchen   It teaches that an excess of metal attached to a modern look, but it makes the cold kitchen that evokes negative emotions. And when in the kitchen too much wood, the atmosphere is grim and stiff.

The kitchen should be light, with artificial lighting should not be harsh.

If the kitchen space is small and dark, the kitchen wall to make better light. Saturated bright colors in the interior of the kitchen, feng shui should not be.

One of the most important principles feng shui kitchen It is that the person who is behind the stove, was facing the door, but in any case, not your back. In modern apartments this is quite difficult to achieve, but Feng Shui recommends to hang a mirror over the stove, an object with a mirror or reflective surface.

Make sure that the element of fire (stove, microwave) were separated from the water element (refrigerators, sinks, dish dryers). Between them is a must element of wood - wooden furniture, a plant, or even an image of the plant.

According to feng shui plate heat represents prosperity and wealth. For this reason, it should not be placed near a window. You do not want your wealth flew out of the house?

Bed linen for a healthy sleep

Not only buy quality linen. Behind him it is still necessary to be able to take care of ...

A certain part of his life, we have been known to spend a dream. And linen, not only helps to better sleep, but also carries an aesthetic function - a vacation in a beautiful bedroom is still much nicer.

Quality linen   must meet certain criteria:

The dense fabric.   Even if it is a rare weaving cloth, it should not be sparse. High-quality fabric has at least 60 stitches per square centimeter. Otherwise underwear starts to "unravel" after several washings.

Linen seam.   Good bedding linen stitched by a special seam - just turn it inside out in order to verify this. On bad underwear visible raw edges and easy single suture.
Another important caveat - the thread must be strong and in harmony with the tone of linen and it itself should smell fresh textiles. If the kit is based on a strong smell of paint, then it is guaranteed in the wash faded.

Coloring.   Lingerie different high-end sound and harmonious coloring, and besides - good solid package.

Fabrics for bed linen

Cotton.   Cotton fiber is almost entirely composed of natural polymer - cellulose. Its properties give fabrics of cotton good strength, durability, and perfect ability to absorb moisture. Cotton conducts heat well, but at the same time prone to rapid contamination. In addition, products made of cotton and are stained strongly "sit down" after washing and do not tolerate elevated temperatures during washing.

Satine.   This rather dense fabric made from twisted cotton yarn double weave. One advantage satin is that it hardly wrinkled.

Percale. Percale   - Rugged denim. From it, for example, manufactured parachutes and sails. On bedding is specially treated percale. It is compact, does not pass the surface of the feathers and fluff. But at the same time soft.

Calico.   Denim little crumpled, easily washed and well ironed. Calico is one of the most suitable for the production of bed linen, because of its hygiene and environmental cleanliness.

Natural silk.   This is the most expensive material of construction for bedding. Under quality silk meant, first of all, the product of Japanese weavers, cheaper manufactured in China or Turkey.

Linen. Clean linen heavily wrinkled and hard iron. Recently, for the production of bed linen used blended fabrics of cotton and linen.

Jacquard.   The dense fabric with woven pattern. Sometimes cotton, synthetic or blended. Jacquard fabric, usually retain the useful properties of all the fibers from which they are made and acquire additional strength and durability. Linens Jacquard considered elite.

Bamboo . Linens Bamboo   perfectly absorbs moisture and evaporates it, contributing to the natural regulation of body temperature. Besides that linens made of bamboo   has antibacterial properties, it is hypoallergenic and does not cause skin irritation.

Proper care of the bed linen

Even the most beautiful new bed linen must be washed before they obscure bed. Before washing linens should be turned inside out. You should always separate the linen from natural fabrics (such as cotton) and artificial, because they have different temperature conditions of washing. In addition, synthetic fibers can cling to the fibers of bed linen from natural fabrics and spoil it.

Change the bedding should be at least once a week. If the label does not have special instructions, then wash bedding   desirably at a temperature not lower than 50 ° C. Wash bed linen   (especially the elite) should be on the delicate cycle, and that is important - in the half-filled drum. These measures contribute to gentle washing and thorough rinsing of laundry. Spots before washing should be treated in accordance with the recommendations for the care of this type of product.

Separately - on how to   washable silk bedding . At first, washable silk bedding   better manually. We can not allow the impact of silk chlorinated chemicals, use only warm water and soap - non-alkaline. When rinsing, you can add a few tablespoons distilled white vinegar to the water to neutralize alkali traces, or a few drops of hair conditioner - to give additional silky underwear. Squeeze silk underwear before drying is impossible.

Silk bedding   fatty stains can be washed in the infusion of mustard, then the fabric shrinks and fades less than when washing detergents. A glass of dry mustard to soak in a little water and stir until the batter konstinstentsii. The solution was filtered into a warm (40-45 ° C) water (10 L) and allowed to brew for 2-3 hours. Wash should be no soap or detergent, and the infusion of mustard should be changed 2-3 times during washing. Rinse the laundry needed in water with ammonia (1 teaspoon per 10 liters of water). And, for the last time - in cold water, adding a vinegar (5 tablespoons. L. 10 liters of water).

Faded cotton sheets can refresh follows: soak laundry for a day in a solution containing 2-3 tablespoons of detergent cotton fabrics the same amount of turpentine and 10 liters of water, and then washed in the usual manner. Alternatively, soak clothes in the warm (30-40 "C) solution of vinegar (1 teaspoon to 1 liter of water).

To iron or not iron linens, the owner decides to herself, If you're ironing, you should know that ironed linen is desirable not overdried, but on the contrary, slightly moist. Moreover, the inside-out.

To remove tracks from a hot iron to the linen of white linen and cotton fabrics, yellowed land soaked in cold water, and then wipe it with a bleach solution (1 teaspoon to 1 cup water).
Tan on the laundry can be removed with the help of onions: cut the head, wipe the stain and wash it with detergent.

Passion for clean - dignity or paranoia?

The rush to clean the apartment from the trash that had accumulated over the cold months, familiar Russian women: spring we - the traditional time of general cleanings, almost a tradition, a ritual. And each "harvest" season, again traditionally possible to count the victims of love for the first ...

Irina Markova did her best to her reputation as an exemplary wife and mistress are not laid down a single spot - in an apartment Ira always perfect order reigned. On a day when the guests were to descend, she decided to hang new curtains on the windows. Then I noticed that after a rain on glasses were ugly divorce.

At the sight of this "outrage" Irina became ill. What do think about it? Blushing with anger, she rushed to wash the windows. Her husband, who returned from a hike of alcohol, found Ira with a rag in his hand, which she was trying to reach out to the far outer corner of the window. At the same time it seemed that the woman had completely forgotten about what is on the eighth floor window sill: it is almost completely popped out.

The husband tried to pull her away from the window, saying that for this purpose there are special devices. He saw in the store a special brush with a long handle. But Ira stained glass in the form of more and more annoying. Well, can not she nedomytyh windows - and all!

Throwing up his hands with a rag, she was stubborn determination leaned forward even more and ... women do not even realize where suddenly gone prop under her leg, heart startled why flicked somewhere in the throat. But in the next moment inhuman pain shot through her, and then swept over the darkness ... The doctors did everything possible to save the life of a woman, so ridiculous that fell out of the window. Almost a month-il was in a coma, and only recently woke up and began to speak. When the poor woman will recover, experts say they can not.

Apartment cleaning: Attention, danger!

Traumatology voice say that the increase in injuries during the traditional spring cleanings apartments   - This is our bane. So be mindful of safety measures, an elementary prudence and caution. In order to protect persons and eye parsing mezzanines and balconies, it is possible - as though it may sound funny - wear sunglasses or a mask of diving. And in any case, do not lean out of the windows open. Really, there is no order in the apartment is not worth your injury.

Passion for clean, what experts think

Renowned US psychologist Ruth Benedict said that clean house   We must always maintain, because only in this case, people can not only organize your mind, but also his life. Ruth advised their patients as frequently as possible to restore order in the house - such cleaning could be a good therapy for nerve health. But at the same time, many psychologists, and Ruth in particular, admit some people just need a mess.

"They find it difficult to spread out on the shelves, all that is going on in their head, they seemed to lurch from one idea to another, but that is what gives them the inspiration for something new", - experts say.

  Conducted by US personnel Ajilon Office survey found that people who are recognized for such quality as a passion for cleanliness - earn less than those who recognized that they exist in the pleasant atmosphere of confusion. Experts explain this fact as follows: "When, in our field of vision are very different things, the brain unconsciously starts looking for the logical connections between them and thus develop their creative thinking."

BTW
Confusion, oddly enough, can make people happier. When people do not live in an environment museum ordering, and more at ease, this means that they are free to interact with things and not become their slaves - which helps the consciousness to perceive their environment more harmonious.

Many experts agree that the obsessive desire to direct clean house   often there is not so much the need for purity, as for purely psychological reasons. Neat need to feel the master of his life, and compensates for the cleaning of the internal need - bringing order to the apartment becomes a way to feel that he is subject to at least something.

Another reason may be pathological cleanliness neurosis and stress. Rush to restore order in stressful situations is sometimes a way to escape the mechanical action and calm. But if there is any violation of the order causes panic attacks or anxiety, you need to see a specialist - it can be a symptom of a serious breakdown.

To passion for cleanliness does not interfere with enjoying life, psychologists are advised to identify their individual optimal level of chaos and maintain it. But if you can not for half an hour to find the right thing under the rubble of other items, your mess - is not art.

During the procedure, doctors found a special locking body around the spine, and also benefited from a bone graft taken from the patient's pelvis. Luckily, Natalie kept the sensitivity of the lower extremities after spine fracture , So the chance of recovery she had.

But none of the doctors, and I can not imagine that it would happen so quickly. Typically, patients with spinal cord injuries are months and Natalie got up and went in 10 days after surgery. For surgeons local clinic the girl became the most successful patient with such severe injuries.

"They told me that I was on the verge of paralysis, - says Natalie. - The turning point was very serious. And when I'm 10 days again began to walk, their surprise there was no limit.

Nose SOS signals

What if this happened to you or your child?

Expert - otolaryngologist, MD, Ph.D., head of advisory and diagnostic department of the Moscow Institute of Pediatrics and Pediatric Surgery Vladimir Belov .

Consider that the nose on one side can move down only in boxers and fans waved their fists - a big mistake. After this injury is often domestic in nature.

Information

Noses are broken not only in the fist demolition, but also during normal game in which one person to another can accidentally lit in the face with his elbow, the ball or puck. This injury often results in a bad fall, for example, a ladder, roller skates or bike. In winter directly into the child's nose can be "imprinted" sled comrades who could not wait to ride a roller coaster after another. Also, breaking noses and had children who were listening to bad and Safety teacher too close to swinging the swing. Hyperactive kids and careless adults who do not look at his feet are at risk of slipping and hitting the most prominent place on the face of the curb or rock, and at home - on the rim bath or sink. In general, none of the kids and adults are not guaranteed by such troubles.

Time is precious

When your loved one yelling obscenities good, and from his nose bleeding, no need to disassemble, whether it's a bruise or a fracture. But we must seize the victim in his arms and rush to the doctor. The most important thing at this injury - to gain as much as possible. Especially quickly need to do if your nose hurt a child or teenager - the fact that young people tissue healing is very fast, so a week later to collect "puzzle" of the broken bones will be too late - they were by that time had themselves grow together (and Naturally, wrong). In adults, and especially older people, this process takes a long time, but still delay the visit to the doctor anyway should not be.

Many people with broken noses go straight to the emergency room, but would be better if they were immediately sent to the emergency room first aid and hospital. Better - where there lorotdeleniya. It is important to do this as soon as possible - ideally, in the first hours after the injury, because the earlier operation has been made, the faster and better healing will occur. Moreover, if the turn was a deviated septum, then put it in place can be only a few hours after injury. 2-3 days to do it will not succeed. So, if you need to correct the nasal septum, then have to do a special operation called "septoplasty".

On the way to the hospital to keep the broken nose of the victim an ice pack. Chill need to at the fracture site did not develop edema because otherwise carry out the operation (reposition the broken bones of the nose) will be impossible, because the surgeon is not able to carry out a visual inspection of the scene. The patient on the road to keep in reclining position, half-sitting. Stop bleeding from the nose to help sterile cotton swabs, and if not, you can simply tilt the person's head and gently press the nostril to the nasal septum. No other measures taken should not be - to do no harm.

If the face has an open wound, and there is a risk of infection in the hospital the victim may make an injection against tetanus.

Assemble again

The hospital ENT carefully examine and feel the nose of the victim, then under local anesthesia hold him rhino- or endoscopy (instrumental examinations of the nasal cavity). And will make an X-ray of the nasal bones. Based on these studies, it will diagnose and outline a strategy for the operation, if that proves necessary.

If swelling of the nose has not had time to evolve, the operation is best carried out immediately. If there is edema, the victim sent home, and if he has a concussion symptoms (nausea, dizziness) to leave for a few days in the hospital to receive medical treatment. After 5-7 days, when the swelling subsides, you can do the operation.

Reposition the bone fragments can be carried out under local or general anesthesia. The choice of anesthesia is different: depending on the age and the psyche of the patient, as well as the volume of transactions. The fact is that every crisis - is unique and to lay down the stone as it was, the surgeon sometimes just a few minutes, but when comminuted fractures usually have to tinker longer.

Teenagers and adults usually "darn" nose under local anesthesia. Injection anesthesia is not used - or fluid administration will break your nose and make the job a surgeon - so often held applicator anesthesia. During surgery, the surgeon using special tools (elevators, similar to the narrow blade) and own fingers collects the broken nose again. Then fix it from the inside with special tampons and outside - gypsum or contemporary material - thermoplastic, which is first lowered into the hot water, which softens, and then placed on the back of the nose, where tightly freezes.

Tampons are removed after 1-2 days, the plaster is removed in about a week. Within a month after the operation is necessary to protect the nose from re-injury as if there a new fracture, nose to collect a second time will be much harder. Therefore, the first time a person with a newly assembled nose will not be able to play sports and play outdoor games.

It should also be wary of infections, and sleep better, not utykayas pillow. Specific recommendations for the care of victims of the doctor gives in each case individually.

Life can not turn back

If the injury was more than 10 days to carry out repositioning will be too late. But this does not mean that now a person a lifetime to live with crooked nose. However, in this case the need is much more serious surgery - rhinoplasty. And it is not done under local and general anesthesia. To correct the shape of the nose, at the time of the intervention the doctor gets re-injured patient and only then assembles his new, straight nose. As a rule, the stronger sex rarely go on this operation only for the sake of beauty. Basically, they are pushing for this nasal breathing problems caused as a result of the injury once. Normally breathe through the nose prevents the partition curve. In this case, when rhinoplasty is performed, and an operation to correct the septum - septoplasty.
