Immunity

What is immunity?

 Why do we not get sick so often compared to the number of organisms we get in contact with?

What are the basic functions of the immune system and how does it work

So, the resistance to any kind of disease or to the causative organism that might cause the disease is the basic definition of immunity.

There are many cells tissues and organs that take part to provide immunity in our body and collectively they are called the immune system.

 The process of achieving the immunity by the cells and the organ is called the immune response.

The study of the all three immunity, immune system, and the immune response mechanism  is called immunology.

The most important function of the immune system is to protect our body from infectious diseases. There are other functions too like our immune system helps the body to reduce the growth of tumors, it also helps in the initiation of tissue repair and also in the clearance of dead cells and it also helps in the much-desired process of inflammation.

Historically speaking, that the stimulation of the immune responses by vaccination  has resulted in the eradication of deadly diseases like smallpox.

So, it becomes important that we take good care of our immune system and follow all the guidelines and protocols.

If a person has a weak immune system whether it is acquired or genetic, they are exposed to a large amount of diseases which would have been prevented by a healthy immune system and common cold being the best example for that.

In general, there are many benefits of the immune system which we will be discussing one by one in a more not-so-boring way!!!!!

So for now some more insights...

Think before you go for a immune system boosting… is it good or bad!!!!!!

The immune system can sometimes lead us to problems too and that too in a fatal manner.

Ever heard of a boosted immune system….. yes many supplement companies do say they boost your immune system…

Well, it may sound impressive but it is not, a boosted immune system can lead to many autoimmune conditions and that can cause many unwanted problems. It might cause inflammatory diseases which can be fatal and can cause death. otherwise, a normal immune system would not produce.

There are many autoimmune conditions that are known to the medical community that is caused by the so-called boosted or abnormal immune system.

So, if you have any complications regarding any supplements which you take or feel any unwanted change in your body, please go see your doctor.

People should take proper care in maintaining their immune system in a normal level because it is a very tricky thing in which you are in danger on both sides.

Conclusion

 It was a very brief introduction to the immune system and some kind of light on the boosted immune system, I hope that it was helpful to you in any way.

If you feel it will be helpful to people you know then share it to them

As always stay safe, informed, and healthy

What is anesthesia??

  What is anesthesia? Since when are we using anesthesia? What do anesthetists do to make us sleep? What function do these medications do? Is anesthesia only making us sleep or does it do any other functions? Have u ever undergone any kind of surgery in which the doctor sedated you? There are many people who have surgeries done because of various reasons. Many of those surgeries are painful and if it were to be done when we are in our natural senses we would not be able to survive the pain, sight, and even the feeling of the surgery. To prevent all of that people began using anesthesia. The surgeon could better have access to the patient. The patient would not feel the pain of him or her being cut open and would not see the organs and blood if not a fan of those kinds of scenarios. History Anesthesia has been going on along with surgery for centuries. The initial forms of anesthesia were basically derived from natural sources. those were plants like cannabis, mand...

  PITFALLS IN THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM There have been remarkable improvements in the field of technology and it has left its masks in the medical area too There have been too many advancements in the medical field itself too. the advancing medicine has lead to the emerging of way too many subspecialties in many fields. Those subspecialties provide us with a deeper knowledge of the specified field and thus more and more effective treatment can be given.  The subspecialties have been giving us better knowledge and treatment opportunities but there are some pitfalls that we cannot neglect. In the case of cardiology, there are many subspecialties  Subspecialties of the cardiology field include  1. cardiac  electrophysiology  2. echocardiography  3.  interventional cardiology  4. nuclear cardiology.

  So today we will talk about wounds very briefly . Everybody in their life has encountered a wound of some kind be it due to falling down on the ground and getting a scratch or getting some serious wounds like having to encounter an accident.   There are various kinds of wounds that are inflicted at the area of contact like it may be a cut a lesion or a laceration or it can be a serious wound where there might be excessive bleeding and more complicated factors like a fracture. It is important to document important historical information such as the mechanism as to how the person got that wound , timing when the person got that wound , location of the injury, and the degree of contamination like if the wound is open there is a high chance that bacteria and viruses can contaminate and cause inflammation . Associated symptoms of pain, swelling, paresthesia burning, or a numb feeling that occurs when we fall down or hit hard on the ground, and loss of function should be ide...
