			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Carpal tunnel syndrome</strong> or CTS results in the numbness of the wrist due to swollen nerves. Carpal bones numbering to eight are present in the wrist and a ligament lies across the bones. The carpal tunnel is nothing but the space between the carpal bones and the ligament. Many other tendons and nerves pass through the carpal tunnel to connect forearm muscles to the hands.</p>
<p>Out of all these nerves is a main nerve called the carpal nerve that brings sensation to the fingers! When pressure is caused on this nerve, CTS develops and the person starts experiencing a pain that prickles through the fingers and hands. People involved in writing and typing an old people could <strong>suffer from CTS</strong>.</p>
<p>In pregnant women also the deviation in volume of flow of blood and bone lubricant liquid in the body could lead to this condition where pressure is put on the median nerve. The area swells causing a burning sensation in the fingers and hands. On all the fingers except the little finger, numbness and pain could be experienced.</p>
<p>Dryness of skin on fingers and hands, pain in the forearm and lack of coordination between finger and hand can also be experienced by pregnant women. If there is lack of grip then the condition can be termed as severe and <a title="Carpal Tunnel Treatment" href="http://carpaltunnel-tips.com/blog/carpal-tunnel-treatment/" target="_blank"><em>carpal tunnel treatment</em></a> will be needed. In either the pregnancy’s third or the second trimester, CTS occurs and after childbirth with a week or two it could disappear. While sleeping, elevation of burning sensation or pain could take place during pregnancy.</p>
<p>The condition is not serious generally; however pain could be reduced by avoiding some kinds of activities and attempting <a title="carpal tunnel exercises" href="http://carpaltunnel-tips.com/blog/carpal-tunnel-exercises/" target="_blank"><em>carpal tunnel exercises</em></a> of mild nature. Massaging palms and fingers and taking of frequent breaks is essential while writing or typing. Excess hand movements should be avoided which is otherwise necessary in certain jobs.</p>
<p><strong>Without the doctor’s consultation, pain killers and medicines should not be taken</strong>. While sleeping a special splint meant for the wrist is suggested for use and pain relief. The gynaecologist should be consulted if daily activities are being affected and severe pain is experienced.</p>
<p>A pill could be recommended for quick relief and if needed, after the delivery a simple surgery could be conducted. As a preventive measure salt intake can be reduced to prevent high fluid retention in the body.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tennis elbow is a condition that affects many athletes who play racket sports like tennis. It also affects other people who are not athletic but participate in strenuous activities for work. Construction workers are also likely victims of this condition. <a href="http://www.tenniselbowtips.com/"><strong>Tennis elbow treatment</strong></a> is necessary if you do not want to suffer from the pain this condition brings about.</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-357 aligncenter" title="tennis Elbow Treatment" src="http://www.shapharm.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/tennis-Elbow-Treatment-300x195.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="195" /></p>
<p>Many people who have this condition, also known as lateral epicondylitis, think that refraining from activity and sports is enough to alleviate the pain but there are also other methods to reduce pain and to fix the root problem in the elbow. To be able to know which course of treatment to take, it is essential to know the cause of the condition and the extent of the injury.</p>
<p>Lateral epicondylitis is a condition that is degenerative, meaning the condition gets worse if left untreated. The condition is caused by inflammation of the epicondyle which is a tendon in the elbow that holds the muscle that extends the wrist. This tendon is damaged as a result of trauma, overuse, and repeated stress to the area.</p>
<p>Symptoms include a burning sensation to the affected area in the outer elbow, pain and difficulty gripping things. The pain and discomfort will increase over time, especially if the patient does not seek proper tennis elbow treatment. Eventually the patient will have difficulty doing basic tasks such as gripping a mug of coffee or reaching for things.</p>
<p>Once you get this painful condition, your first goal should be to ease pain and decrease the chance of making the condition worse than it already is. A doctor may recommend using a brace to support your elbow and arm. This will put less pressure on your injured tendon and allow the elbow to heal faster. Using a brace though will limit your motions and weaken your muscles in the affected arm.</p>
<p>Some therapists advise certain exercises and stretching routines to bring back strength to the arm after extensive tennis elbow treatment. The exercises and stretches can also prevent future incidents of lateral epicondylitis because the muscles and elbow are strengthened and more able to fight stress and trauma to the area. Use these exercise routines as a preventive measure against tennis elbow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bloating is a common physical ailment among women across the world. If you have ever experienced bloating, you understand how inconvenient and uncomfortable it can be. However, there are methods you can use to keep bloating under control.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-346" title="Bloating Under Control" src="http://www.shapharm.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Bloating-Under-Control-300x136.jpg" alt="Bloating Under Control" width="300" height="136" /></p>
<p>In general, raw foods contain more bulk than cooked foods. For example, cooked carrots are less likely to cause bloat than raw carrots. Gassy foods are also major causes of bloating, such as broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, citrus, legumes, onions and peppers. Fried foods and spicy foods tend to cause bloating also. When consuming fried foods, digestion occurs more slow. And spicy foods irritate the stomach lining.</p>
<p>Salt is a well-known bloat culprit. The more salt consumed, the more water the body will retain, causing bloating to occur. Chewing gum can also contribute to that bloated feeling because excessive amounts of air are swallowed while chewing. Even food that contains sugar substitutes can cause the body to bloat, such as energy bars, sweetening packets and sugar-free cookies. The sugar alcohol in these foods contributes to bloating, gas, and in rare cases, diarrhea.</p>
<p>Besides food, certain activities can cause the body to bloat. Traveling by airplane is one such activity. Consider the fact that an airplane&#8217;s typical cabin air pressure ranges from 5,000-8,000 feet in order to give passengers a comfortable atmosphere. When the body is exposed to this range of pressure, the cavities within the body will expand up to 25 percent. As the cabin air pressure drops upon descent, the intestines will expand, which causes bloating.</p>
<p>And do not forget about getting a good night&#8217;s rest. Yes, the amount of sleep you get each night can play a role in body bloat. Experts recommend getting a minimum of seven hours of sleep every night in order to ensure proper digestive track functioning.</p>
