What causes brain aneurysm and how to prevent them?

---

Are they pathologic or genetic related disease? Can excercise, running, vitamins or foods protect from this vascular disease or must be the micro-catheter base procedure with coils or Onyx?
From the Analyst’s resources, the high risk factors are alcohol, hypertension, hardening of the arteries, smoking, infections, deficiency of potassium and coper. A small study also says antibiotic Dyxolyne seems helping to stop the growth of abdominal aneurysm.
What are the recent discovery? Does Dyxolyne or other antibiotic therapy work?
A brain aneurysm is a ballooning-out of the wall of an artery in the brain. Often this wall is weakened by disease, injury or an abnormality present at birth. Aneurysms are often caused or made worse by high blood pressure. They aren't always life-threatening, but serious consequences — such as a stroke — can result if one bursts in the brain. This is called a hemorrhagic (or bleeding) stroke.

When a blood vessel on the brain's surface ruptures and bleeds into the space between the brain and the skull (but not into the brain itself), it's called a subarachnoid hemorrhage. When an artery in the brain bursts, flooding the surrounding tissue with blood, it's called a cerebral hemorrhage.

Several imaging techniques, such as X-ray angiography, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) or computed tomography (CT), are used to detect aneurysms. An aneurysm may be small and not cause symptoms. A doctor will want to check it regularly to see if it's enlarging. Symptoms of an aneurysm depend on where it's located. Aneurysms in the brain can cause impaired vision and headaches. The larger an aneurysm becomes, the more likely it is to burst.

Brain aneurysms are generally treated surgically. A metal clip is secured around the base of the aneurysm. Another type of treatment involves 'packing' the aneurysm with microcoils (small, flexible wire coils). These are delivered and inserted into the aneurysm using a catheter  (+ info)

What is the likelyhood of developing peyronies disease when a patient has a cystoscopy performed?

---

I developed a severe upward bend in my penis within 3 days of having a cystoscopy. The doctor who performed the cystoscopy literally shoved the scope past a constriction in my urethra, which was created by the 'clamp' put on my penis by the assistant and left on my penis for 15 minutes. By the way, it was excruciatingly painful when the doctor did shove the scope past the constriction and there was A LOT of blood. I now have peyronies disease. I had very little anatomical curvature to my penis prior to the cystoscopy. I have had several verapamil injections and the plaque has reduced, but the 45 degree upward bend has not changed. Since it is widely accepted that peyronies disease is caused by trauma to the penis, is it also known that a cystoscopy can actually cause peyronies disease through physical trauma to the penis?
I have heard of developing such symptoms after undergoing cyctoscopy.
As with any surgical procedure, there are some risks involved with a cystoscopy. Complications may include: profuse bleeding; a damaged urethra; a perforated bladder; a urinary tract infection; or an injured penis.
You should contact your phsycian immediately in order to find a proper diagnose to this problem. espcially that you u have mentioned bleeding.  (+ info)

Constriction of the penis?

---

What happens if you wear a constriction ring around your penis for too long? I had one on and after I took it off it remained red. Will it go away over time?
You don't want to fool around with your tool if you want to use it the rest of your life.  (+ info)

Is there any evidence that caffeine can cause SD problems or numbness in hands & feet due to vein constriction

---

I am a heavy coffee drinker..I have had problems with numbness in feet and hands for quite a while..no apparent reason. I have had an SD problem also for quite a while...not requiring Viagra. I just wonder if there is a connection.
I had some difficulty donating platelets at the blood bank and the nurses said it could be from too much caffeine. They told me my veins were constricting.
Thank you grimmyte, but it is not a ED problem..an SD problem. I;ve seen 2 doctors and the second one said my problem was something to do with brain enzymes and there was nothing he could do.
Erections are caused by blood flowing into the penis, so if the blood vessels feeding the penis are smaller for some reason, then you can have problems with erectile dysfunction. You see this sometimes with diabetics. Although a lot of caffeine can make your blood vessels constrict, I would think it would require an enormous amount to get them to constrict enough for this happen--assuming there was nothing else wrong.

I am much more concerned about your nerves than your blood vessels. If you have a problem with blood vessels constricting and not allowing enough blood to get through, you are going to experience pain--not numbness. Numbness is more likely to indicate that there is something wrong with your nerves. Whatever is affecting the nerves in your hands and feet could also be affecting the nerves that run to your penis (and also control the blood vessels that run into and out of your penis).

I really think you should be checked out by a doctor. It might be something simple like a vitamin or mineral deficiency, but it could also be something worse. Whatever it is, I think the sexual dysfunction is something worth trying to fix.  (+ info)

What is the name of this sexual condition?

---

During a couple's love making session, the woman Vagina starts to constrict while being penetrated. The constriction becomes so tight that the man's penis can no longer be retracted. They had to be sent to
an operating room to be separated. I am not sure if this is fiction.
It is mostly fiction. When a woman's PC muscles contract and don't allow penetration then that is vaginismis, but the man will be able to pull out even if she contracts her muscles as tight as she can during sex.  (+ info)

Extra exercise to help flabby lower abdomen?

---

I am trying to loose 100lb, I have lost 30 so far, (exercise and diet). I have lost cm all over (30cm this month - biggest loss at the gym this month!), but the excess fat on my lower abdomen seems to be getting flabbier (if that is a word). I am not looking for short cuts, but I want to know if there are any extra exercises to help with the lower abdomen, and what should I do about supporting the flab as the diet and exercise continue to work.

I have Crohn's, which has made any constriction or abdominal exercise impossible in the past, and that is what I think has caused the blubber to settle there. So now the Crohn's is not causing any problems, I need to learn how to work these muscles again.

I am also using a skin firming moisturising cream, and it seems to be helping on my arms and thighs.

I am going to the gym (Curves) 4-5 times a week (30 min), swimming when I can, walking 3-4 times a week, and using 'The Bean' 4-5 times a week.

Thanks for all advice.
Any idea's?
So far, your cardio routine is fine, in helping you to crank up your metabolism to burn off more body fat from your entire body (that includes fat from your abs too).

I think you could improve the flabbiness in your lower abs by doing Pilates.

This is a superb exercise for abs, really.

The sheer action of pulling-in navel back into your spine in every exercise movement, is enough to flatten and strenghten your abs, beyond your expectation.

Plus, the exercise focus is on your core muscles (abs, butts, thighs, back and spine), so you get to tone and strengthen these muscles too.

The net result - you'll develop leaner, flatter abs, stonger and longer legs, thighs, and sexier butts and backs. Your posture also improves tremendously.  (+ info)

Do you wear a maternity bra to bed when breastfeeding?

---

I am unsure what to wear when it comes to bed time whilst breastfeeding. Usually I wear pj's without a bra, to relieve the constriction. However considering the leaking, I am assuming that new mothers wear a bra constantly? Are there other things you wear that are more comfortable to use during sleep?

Thank you for your advice.
They sell sleeping bras, or you can wear a nursing tank. Or sleep topless. At the beginning I was most comfortable in a soft pull on nursing bra with cotton nursing pads. I often put a towel or folded up receiving blankets under me because I was a big time leaker. Now that my son is 13 months old I don't leak anymore. I typically wear a tank top with a shelf bra.

You may not leak at all, or you may only leak a little bit. I'd have a sleep bra/nursing tank or two on hand, but ultimately it will be about what you find the most comfortable.  (+ info)

Can flat feet negatively effect my snowboarding?

---

The last 3 seasons I have gone snowboarding, I have been experiencing intense pain in my feet after my first run or two. The pain is a tightness and constriction on the arch of my foot that forces me to have to take breaks constantly.
Sounds like it could be plantar faciitis in the making, and you're lucky it hasn't gotten worse in the past three years. I know from wearing ski boots myself (after I became a flatfoot but before I got custom orthotics) how the inflexible sole can really put stress on your flat sole. I know exactly the feeling you are describing, but I never got to the point where I had to stop constantly.

Have you been stretching gently for awhile before you put your boots on? Give that a try next time. If you've got flat feet, have you got orthotics or even drugstore arch supports (like Dr. Scholl's or Superfeet or Spenco, etc), to give the sole of your foot some support? Or is your foot so flat that it will not tolerate any "arch" support?

Do some reading on plantar faciitis, including reading the tales of woe from PF sufferers, and you'll realize you don't want to roll the dice on this one. Go to a podiatrist (foot doctor) and get your feet checked out. I know in my case although I didn't develop PF (not yet, anyway), the constant pulling of my flat "arch" on that PF area, right where the plantar fascia attaches to the front of the heel, did cause a painful heel spur to form on my flatter foot. Ouch, it hurt. I could see it on an x-ray.

Get it checked out by a pro, that's why you want to visit a podiatrist, who will be able to assess your own situation, and chances are you'll be back to snowboarding without pain if you haven't already done too much damage by ignoring it.

The above has to do with the nature and state of your feet, which was your question. However, you should also consider your boots, and I've included some links for you to peruse below.

Good luck!  (+ info)
