Adenovirus is a virus that can cause infection in several parts of the body, including the respiratory tract, the eyes (conjunctiva), and the gastrointestinal tract. It mainly affects children, and infections occur throughout the year. Most cases recover with supportive (symptomatic) treatment, but people with weakened immunity can develop severe pneumonia, so caution is needed.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

#benign prostatic hyperplasia, #prostate, #lower urinary tract symptoms, #frequent urination, #nocturia, #urinary urgency, #sense of incomplete bladder emptying, #acute urinary retention, #alpha-blocker, #transurethral resection of the prostate, #headache, #a splitting headache, #migraine, #back-of-head pain, #urinating frequently, #frequent trips to the bathroom, #blood in urine, #red urine, #bloody urine

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a very common condition in men in which the prostate enlarges with age, narrowing the urethra and causing urinary symptoms. The prevalence rises with age, affecting about 50% of men in their 50s and 60% of men in their 60s. Without treatment, it can lead to complications such as acute urinary retention or kidney failure, so if you have symptoms, please consult a urologist.

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)

#hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, #bone marrow transplant, #autologous transplant, #allogeneic transplant, #graft-versus-host disease, #blood cancer, #leukemia, #lymphoma, #loose stool, #watery diarrhea, #frequent trips to the bathroom

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a treatment that transplants hematopoietic stem cells, the cells that give rise to white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. It was previously known as bone marrow transplantation, but the name changed once it became possible to collect these cells from peripheral blood as well. It is mainly used to treat blood-related malignancies, and both the treatment process and follow-up care afterward are important.

If you experience a sudden drop in blood pressure, please seek prompt evaluation by a medical specialist.

Prostate Disorders

Prostate disorders include benign prostatic hyperplasia, which causes difficulty urinating, and prostate cancer, which is increasing rapidly among men. Both conditions tend to have few or mild symptoms in their early stages, making them easy to overlook, but if left unaddressed, they can lead to serious complications such as urinary retention or kidney failure. If you have any urinary symptoms, please be sure to consult a medical specialist.

Rectal cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the rectum, the final section of the large intestine.

Syncope in Children and Adolescents

#syncope, #fainting, #adolescents, #hypotension, #orthostatic hypotension, #reflex syncope, #children, #arrhythmia, #feverish, #having a fever, #high fever, #low-grade fever, #fever, #collapsing, #loss of consciousness, #passing out, #racing heart, #pounding heart, #rapid pulse, #loose stool, #watery diarrhea, #frequent trips to the bathroom

Syncope is a temporary loss of consciousness that occurs when blood pressure drops suddenly and blood flow to the brain is briefly reduced. It is commonly called fainting. It occurs more often in adolescents and older adults, and caution is needed because injuries can occur when a person falls. Because there are many possible causes, if syncope occurs, please consult a medical specialist to identify the exact cause.
