What is "asthma"?

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways in the lungs. This inflammation can cause symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing, and chest tightness. Asthma symptoms can vary in intensity and frequency, and they may be triggered by factors like allergens, exercise, cold air, or respiratory infections. While there is no cure for asthma, it can be managed effectively with medications such as inhalers to control inflammation and open the airways, as well as by avoiding triggers and adopting a healthy lifestyle. Regular monitoring and treatment can help people with asthma lead active and fulfilling lives while minimizing the risk of flare-ups and complications.

What is "Covid-19"?

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It mainly spreads when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes, releasing saliva or mucus. Symptoms can vary but commonly include fever, cough, fatigue, body aches, and loss of taste or smell. While most cases are mild, some individuals may experience serious complications, particularly older adults and those with underlying health conditions. Preventive measures like wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and getting vaccinated help reduce the spread of the disease and protect people against serious illness.

What is "diarrhea"?

Diarrhea is a common condition where a person passes loose or watery stools more frequently than usual. It can be caused by various factors, including viral or bacterial infections, food poisoning, dietary changes, medications, or underlying medical conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Symptoms of diarrhea may include frequent bowel movements, abdominal cramps, bloating, nausea, and sometimes fever. Treatment typically involves staying hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids, consuming bland foods, and avoiding foods and drinks that can worsen diarrhea, such as caffeine and dairy products. In some cases, over-the-counter medications may help ease symptoms. However, if diarrhea persists for more than a few days, or is accompanied by severe symptoms like dehydration, blood in the stool, or high fever, it is important to seek medical attention.

Podstatné jméno

Wha is "human immunodeficiency virus"?

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks the body's immune system, specifically targeting CD4 cells, which are crucial for fighting off infections. HIV can lead to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a condition in which the immune system becomes severely weakened, leaving the body vulnerable to infections and certain cancers. HIV is primarily transmitted through sexual contact, sharing needles, or from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding. While there is no cure for HIV, antiretroviral therapy (ART) can effectively control the virus, allowing people with HIV to live long and healthy lives. Prevention actions such as practicing safe sex, using clean needles, and HIV testing are essential for reducing the spread of the virus.

What is "measles"?

Measles is a highly contagious viral infection caused by the measles virus. It primarily affects children and is spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes, releasing saliva or mucus. Symptoms typically include high fever, cough, runny nose, red eyes, and a characteristic red, spotty skin rash that usually starts on the face and spreads to the rest of the body. Measles can lead to serious complications such as pneumonia, encephalitis, and even death, especially in young children and those with weakened immune systems. Vaccination is highly effective in preventing measles and is part of the routine vaccination schedule in many countries.

What is the "plague"?

Plague is a serious bacterial infection caused by a bacterium called Yersinia pestis. It is usually spread through the bite of infected fleas, which can carry the bacterium from rodents to humans. Plague has historically caused widespread pandemics, like the Black Death in the Middle Ages, but today it is rare and mostly occurs in specific regions, particularly in parts of Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Symptoms may include fever, chills, weakness, swollen glands, and difficulty breathing. Quick treatment with antibiotics is crucial to prevent serious complications and death. Public health measures, such as controlling rodents and preventing flea bites, are also important for stopping the spread of plague.

What is a "stroke"?

A stroke occurs when part of the brain does not receive enough oxygen and nutrients because the blood supply is cut off or reduced. This can happen because of a blockage in an artery, known as an ischemic stroke, or the bursting of a blood vessel, known as a hemorrhagic stroke. Symptoms of a stroke include sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body, difficulty speaking or understanding speech, confusion, trouble walking, dizziness, and an intense headache. Immediate medical attention is critical for treating a stroke, as early treatment can minimize brain damage and improve outcomes. Treatment may involve medications, procedures to remove blood clots, and rehabilitation to regain lost functions.

What is a "blister"?

A blister is a small, fluid-filled bump on the skin. It forms when the outer layer of the skin becomes damaged, often due to friction, burns, or irritation. The fluid inside the blister helps protect the damaged skin and promote healing. Blisters can vary in size and may be painful or itchy. They usually heal on their own within a few days as the body reabsorbs the fluid and the skin underneath repairs itself. Avoiding further irritation and keeping the blister clean can help prevent infection and promote faster healing.

What is a "carrier"?

A carrier is a person or animal that has microorganisms in their body that can cause diseases but does not show symptoms of the disease. Despite not being sick, carriers can still spread the infection to others. This can happen with various diseases, such as typhoid fever or certain types of viral infections. Identifying carriers is important in controlling the spread of infectious diseases, and measures may include monitoring, isolation, or treatment to prevent transmission.

What is an "epidemic"?

An epidemic is an outbreak of a disease that spreads quickly and affects a large number of people within a community, region, or population at the same time, in contrast to a pandemic, which is a global outbreak of a disease. An epidemic often involves illnesses that were previously controlled or uncommon in the area. The spread can happen through person-to-person contact, contaminated food or water, or other methods. Public health measures, such as vaccination, quarantine, and hygiene practices, are typically used to control and prevent further spread of the disease.

What is a "pandemic"?

A pandemic is a global outbreak of a disease that affects a large number of people across multiple countries or continents. Unlike an epidemic, which is limited to a specific area, a pandemic has a much broader geographic impact and can lead to widespread illness and disruption. Examples include the COVID-19 pandemic and the 1918 influenza pandemic. Controlling a pandemic typically involves working together across countries, widespread public health measures, vaccination campaigns, and efforts to reduce the spread of the disease through quarantine and hygiene practices.
