I have an endoscopy result with following results
diffuse erythema+ and final impression says diffuse gastritis.
Can anybody explain what does they mean?
Diffuse means scattered and erythema is redness. Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining. You have redness and inflammation in your stomach, spread around rather than in just one place. With this result your doctor should be able to prescribe medicine to help.  (+ info)

What are some treatments for severe Idiopathic craniofacial erythema?

---

I think i have severe Idiopathic craniofacial erythema because my face goes red whenever someone even says my name. School it is most common and im getting tired of being scared to go to school fearing by face will turn red and it gets worse when everyone notices. I feel like im on fire and then i can't concentrate on school work, or ask questions or comment so my face goes red so i dont get very good "participation" marks. Please help me.
According to experiencefestival.com, "A number of treatments are available. The most successful non-invasive procedure is cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which attempts to alleviate the anxiety felt by sufferers.

"In extreme cases a surgical procedure known as Endoscopic Transthoracic Sympathicotomy (ETS) is available. Pioneered by surgeons in Sweden, this procedure has recently become increasingly controversial due to its many potential adverse effects. Patients who have undergone the procedure frequently complain of compensatory sweating and fatigue. ETS is now normally only considered in extreme cases where other treatments have been ineffective."

I checked out Wikipedia.org for the definition of Endoscopic Transthoracic Sympathicotomy, and it says that, "Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) is a surgical procedure where certain portions of the sympathetic nerve trunk are destroyed. ETS is used to treat hyperhidrosis, facial blushing, Raynaud's disease and Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. By far the most common complaint treated with ETS is palmar hyperhidrosis, or "sweaty palms". In this disorder, the palms may constantly shed so much sweat that the affected person is unable to handle paper, sign documents, keep clothes dry, or shake hands. The result is often social phobia so severe as to be disabling.

Sympathectomy refers to the destruction of tissue anywhere in either of the two sympathetic trunks, long chains of nerve ganglia lying along either side of the spine. Each trunk is broadly divided into three regions: cervical (up by the neck), thoracic (in the chest) and lumbar (in the lower back). The most common area targeted in sympathectomy is the upper thoracic region, that part of the sympathetic chain lying between the first and fifth thoracic vertebrae."

I hope you find something that will bring you the relief I'm sure you're desperate for.  (+ info)

Can anyone tell me anything about erythema multiforme?

---

My brother-in-law has it and is at a loss as to what has caused it. So far the doctor has given him steroids and antihistamines for the itch. That works as long as he takes the steroids but when the regimen is over, it comes back. Any suggestions?

Does any one have advise on skin therapy and treatment for Erythema Annulare Centrifiguum?

---

I would use Luxiq, Eucerin, and Sarna. I'd like to avoid Luxiq as much as possible, I was wondering if you have any alternative, natural treatments during flare-ups.
No treatment is usually needed as they usually go away anywhere from months to years. The lesions may last from anywhere between 4 weeks to 34 years with an average duration of 11 months. If there is an underlying disease then by treating and removing the disease it will stop the lesions. It usually doesn't require treatment, but topical corticosteroids may be helpful[6] in reducing redness, swelling and itchiness.

Some supported and not supported methods of having an effect on EAC include:

Photosensitive so it can be moved/reduced with appropriate sunlight (beware as it easy to have too much sunlight and cause sunburn).
Vitamin D
Immune system - hence it will increase in size/number when the immune system is low or overloaded.
Hormone Drugs
Disulone
Topical calcipotriol - a topical vitamin D derivative has been known to be beneficial  (+ info)

How long does erythema last?

Hi

My mum has had a bad reaction to some acne treatment cream (freederm gel) and it has resulted in two very bad rashes on her face (cheeks)?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythema

If it is caused by acne treatment, then how long will it take before it clears up?

She has an antibotic cream and calamine lotion to help.
If the erythema appeared soon after the acne treatment, then most likely your mom is having contact dermatitis due to the application of that acne cream.

So as soon as your mom stop the use of that cream, the rashes will clear up in few days depends of the severity and secondary lession following the rashes.

No need to apply antibiotic cream if there is no infection or errosion.
Calamine lotion just help to soothe and reduce itchiness.  (+ info)

What would a therapists response be if a client had "Erythema" reaction after therapy?

---

If you don't mind can you also add in a response for:

Hyperamia

Headaches

Vertigo on rising

Discomfort

Excessive urination

Thank you in advance
THIS IS HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT. Not me having all of these reactions...
Get them a drink of water or juice to be sipped, they should sit up slowly and dangle their feet over the edge of the bed/table for a few mins before attempting to stand. Ther erythema could be a local reaction to friction or an allergy to something used on the skin.  (+ info)

i had test done and it was given to me on the paper with this saying.erythema,granularity and nodularity in the anastomosis compatible with gastritis.? i have been having problems with my stomach since i had the gastric bypass.stomach pain and a lot of bowel movement. not really normal.
there is evidence of redness cause by increase blood supply like a blister(erythema), presence of granule-like(granularity) and presence of nodules(nodularity) where they join(anastomosis) the stomach and small intestine(duodenum is 1st part of the small intestine) - all these findings are consistent with gastritis - which means inflamation of the stomach lining.

there, all the big words were explained.
