Treatment Methods for Diabetes

Exactly how diabetes is treated depends on a number of factors: which type the patient has, how severe it is, the age of the patient and others.

What Is Diabetes?

The word diabetes is common enough. Nearly everyone has heard it and may know someone who has it. But how many know what it is? Diabetes is a medical condition identified by continual abnormally high levels of glucose in the blood.

Risk Factors for Diabetes

The causes of diabetes are complex and only partly understood. Why any particular person gets diabetes isn't completely known. Complicating the situation is the fact that there are different types of the disease, though Type 1 and Type 2 are the most common. Each results from a combination of environmental and genetic influences.

Conjunctivitis

Conjunctivitis is an eye problem in which the conjunctiva, which is the mucous membrane that covers the eyelid and the white part of both eyes, becomes inflamed. There are two main types of Conjunctivitis, or pink eye as it is more commonly referred to. The first results from a bacterial or viral infection and the other results from an allergic reaction.

Revise Your Resumé

One important thing to remember is that your resumé should always be up to date so that you can take advantage of any opportunities that come your way.

Set the tone with music

There’s no doubt that music can affect our mood. But what you may not know is that the type of music you listen to can also have an impact on your wellbeing.

Baby Milestones

Development milestones begin even before birth. They're often easy to see using ultrasound and other techniques. But after birth, some may be harder to spot.
