HPV (human papillomavirus) is well known as the virus that causes cervical cancer. However, HPV can cause head and neck cancer (cancer that develops in the head and neck area), oropharyngeal cancer, tonsil cancer, and anal and genital warts not only in women but also in men. The HPV vaccine can also help protect men. If you have HPV-related symptoms or are considering vaccination, please consult an otolaryngology (ENT) specialist.2026-06-26

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a very common virus transmitted through skin-to-skin contact. More than half of sexually active women and men are estimated to have been infected with genital HPV at some point. Most infections clear on their own, but some types can cause conditions such as cervical cancer. Vaccination and regular screening are important.2026-06-26

Hypertension is a condition in which blood pressure, the force exerted on the walls of the blood vessels when the heart pumps out blood, stays persistently high; it is classified as a systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg or higher or a diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or higher. Hypertension often causes no symptoms, so it is called the "silent killer." If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications such as stroke, heart disease, and kidney disease, so evaluation by a medical specialist and steady management are needed.2026-06-26

Hypothermia refers to a drop in core body temperature to 35°C or below. The lower the body temperature falls, the more dangerous the condition becomes, and in severe cases it can lead to cardiac arrest. It can occur with prolonged exposure to extreme cold or cold environments, and extra caution is needed when alcohol has been consumed. If hypothermia is suspected, please call 119 immediately or go to a hospital.2026-06-26
