Brain Tumor Symptoms

Brain tumor symptoms depend on tumor type and location. New or progressive headaches, seizures, focal neurological changes (vision, weakness), and cognitive shifts warrant prompt medical evaluation; emergency care is needed for sudden severe signs.

Gonorrhea

Gonorrhea remains a common STI with many asymptomatic cases, growing antibiotic resistance, and risks for infertility and neonatal eye infection. Regular screening, condom use, timely treatment with recommended antibiotics, and public-health measures are essential.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy uses small, local injections of drugs, enzymes, vitamins, or plant extracts for cosmetic and pain indications. Evidence for body-contouring is limited and safety depends on the ingredients and the injector's training. Ask for credentials, ingredient lists, and consider FDA-approved alternatives for specific uses.

Symptoms Of Acid Reflux

Acid reflux (GERD) occurs when stomach contents flow back into the esophagus, causing heartburn, regurgitation, and sometimes cough or hoarseness. Left untreated it can cause esophagitis, strictures, or Barrett's esophagus. Management ranges from lifestyle changes and medications (H2 blockers, PPIs) to surgery or device procedures for selected patients.

Lung Cancer Signs

Lung cancer often causes no early symptoms. Know the common warning signs - persistent cough, blood in sputum, shortness of breath, recurrent infections - and the steps to lower risk: quit smoking, avoid secondhand smoke, test for radon, and consider annual low-dose CT screening if eligible.
