Spring fatigue syndrome is a condition marked by a combination of fatigue, sleepiness, reduced appetite, and difficulty concentrating during the spring season. It occurs as the body temporarily adjusts to the increasing daylight hours of the season. It usually improves on its own within a few weeks and can be managed with exercise, a regular routine, and a balanced diet. However, fatigue that persists regardless of season may have a different cause, so please consult a medical specialist in that case.2026-06-26

Stroke
#stroke, #dementia, #vascular dementia, #high blood pressure, #snoring, #weakness in the arms or legs, #difficulty moving one side of the body
Stroke is a medical emergency that occurs when a blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked or ruptures. A blocked blood vessel is called a cerebral infarction, and a ruptured one is called a cerebral hemorrhage. If symptoms appear, going to the emergency room immediately is the most important way to reduce aftereffects. Stroke is also closely related to dementia. The main symptom of stroke is the loss of a specific bodily function, such as paralysis of the arms or legs. The most important factor in treatment is the golden time (the critical time window for treatment), so please be sure to consult a medical specialist for an accurate diagnosis. If abnormal symptoms appear, call 119 (Korea's emergency number) or go to the emergency room immediately.2026-06-26

A wrist fracture occurs when a person puts a hand out to break a fall and the impact is transmitted to the wrist. It commonly occurs after falls on icy roads in winter, and older adults and women with osteoporosis-weakened bones can fracture even with minor impact. If left untreated, it can lead to wrist deformity, limited joint motion, and arthritis. If you have pain and swelling in the wrist after a fall, please consult an orthopedic specialist.2026-06-26
