Health / Hepatitis B: 8 Common Ways You Can Be Infected With The Virus- Healthcare Daily by Publichealth: 8:28am On May 06, 2021
Hepatitis B infection is caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). The virus is passed from person to person through blood, semen or other body fluids.

It does not spread by sneezing or coughing. Rather, eight common ways that HBV can spread are:

1. Sexual contact. You may get hepatitis B if you have unprotected sex with someone who is infected. The virus can pass to you if the person’s blood, saliva, semen or vaginal secretions enter your body.

2. Sharing of needles. HBV easily spreads through needles and syringes contaminated with infected blood. Sharing IV drug paraphernalia puts you at high risk of hepatitis B.

3. Accidental needle sticks. Hepatitis B is a concern for health care workers and anyone else who comes in contact with human blood.

4. Mother to child. Pregnant women infected with HBV can pass the virus to their babies during childbirth. However, the newborn can be vaccinated to avoid getting infected in almost all cases. Talk to your doctor about being tested for hepatitis B if you are pregnant or want to become pregnant.

5. If you have unprotected sex with multiple sex partners or with someone who is infected with HBV

6. Men who have sex with other men (gay) risk hepatitis infection.

7. If you live with someone who has a chronic HBV infection, you risk being infected.

8. If you have a job that exposes you to human blood, such as laboratory workers, doctors, nurses, etc., you are at risk of hepatitis infection.




Signs and symptoms of hepatitis B range from mild to severe. They usually appear about one to four months after a person has been infected, although the symptoms could see them as early as two weeks post-infection. Some people, usually young children, may not have any symptoms, even when they have been infected. Their symptoms may manifest when they are grown. In other words, they can carry the virus for a long time without knowing it.

Hepatitis B signs and symptoms may include:

• Abdominal pain

• Dark urine

• Fever

• Joint pain

• Loss of appetite

• Nausea and vomiting

• Weakness and fatigue

• Yellowing of your skin and the whites of your eyes (jaundice)

Have you noticed any rashes since the itch started?

Like someone recommended before, You should see a doctor (especially a dermatologist).
Your problem could be due to scabies, or some other causes. Your doctor would tell you better.

You could read more about SCABIES here or chat with us on our twitter handle (for privacy reasons), and one of our doctors would get back to you.

Health / 6 Major Things You Should Know About Genital WARTS- Healthcare Daily by Publichealth: 7:08am On May 05, 2021
Genital Warts is a common Sexually Transmitted Infection.
Imagine that two months after your last sexual experience, you woke up one morning and had pain or itch around your private part and anus and you are wondering what is happening. As the pain increased, you decided to check and know what is causing the pain because you had a good night without intercourse or even masturbation. As you unzipped your cloth and pulled down that inner-wear, lol and behold, all you saw were fleshy bumps around your private part.

Now you are wondering where this came from as you always have clean inner wears and it has been long since you had the last sexual activity.

Today, we would tell you 6 things you should know about these fleshy bumps that you have. They are:



1. Genital warts can cause pain, itching and feeling of discomfort within the private part/ and anus.
2. Genital warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) which can majorly be transmitted through sexual intercourse.
3. The virus that causes Genital warts, can also be seen on the hands and other parts of the body.
4. The warts affect both women and men.
5. The warts can be treated, but the virus that causes the infection (HPV) cannot be cured.
6. Genital warts caused by HPV can be prevented through the use of vaccines.


If this is your case, you can read more about GENITAL WARTS here and ways forward.

You can also ask any questions if you have any, and we would do our best to answer as much as we can.

Health / Are You Pregnant? Why You Should Start Going For Antenatal Care by Publichealth: 3:27pm On May 04, 2021
Once upon a time, i had a pregnant aunt that was claimed to have been killed by charms from a co-wife. when i enquired about what happened, i was told that when she was almost due for delivery, she started CONVULSING and before you know what was happening, she passed on.

What she died from is a Condition called ECCLAMPSIA. It is a medical condition that is seen in pregnancy. If my aunt had attended Antenatal care, she wouldnt have died from Ecclampsia. No pregnant woman should be allowed to die from a preventable cause and that is why today, i want to talk to us about the Benefits of Antenatal Care.


Screening:
Good antenatal care includes regular screening which can detect and prevent early complications such as hypertension and diabetes in pregnancy; both of which can affect the unborn baby.


Best nutrition:
There are certain foods that should be avoided during pregnancy. Foods such as raw fish, undercooked eggs, and unpasteurised/soft cheese, which contain enzymes and proteins that are dangerous to a developing foetus. Your immune system is also working to for two, making it more susceptible to bacterial attacks. Antenatal care educates you about what foods to stay away from.


Important vitamins:
Prenatal vitamins play a big part in the health of your child. Even with a healthy diet, you will need supplements due to the additional hard work your body is doing. Additional key nutrients are typically found in folic acid and pregnancy multivitamins, both of which help support neural tube defects, baby’s development, and the prevention of anaemia.


For any questions about Antenatal care and its benefits, see: https://publichealthnig.com/antenatal-care-benefits-when-to-start/
or ask below, and a doctor from our team would do our best to respond when we can.



Important Message:
Please do not delay medical care at this time. If you have severe or worrying symptoms, please do not wait for our Online consult, but proceed to your nearest hospital for checkup.
Health / Re: Can A Delayed Ejaculation Actually Father A Child? by Publichealth: 3:22pm On May 04, 2021
Like i mentioned earlier,
If there is an Ejaculation, and the ejaculation contains Sperm, and the Sperms are Viable, You would be able to father a Child.

It is only when there is no viable sperms in your ejaculate, or no ejaculation at all that you should be worried.

You should check out possible causes of Male infertility here: https://publichealthnig.com/male-infertility-causes-treatments-prevention/

I am glad you are not having these symptoms anymore.

Anyone with similar Symptoms should see a doctor, particularly, a Urologist, to be sure that you do not have any anatomical or physiological impairment.


Eriokanmi:
Bros, I used to be in your shoes. My situation got so bad that I began to engage in menage a trois. I'd still get the 3 of them tired yet, nothing would come out. I'd have said you cooked up this story, had I not experienced it in the past. Ladies would always throng my place and call me all manners of names, a horse, Mr Big etc not knowing I was doing myself. Some girls i had an encounter with, ended up either breaking up with their bfs or they say they're not good in bed. Some would confront me and say, guy nobody has lasted so long on me like you do.. you're so unique.

The issue started from my undergraduate days when I used to masturbate. I chose not to have any gf until I graduated so I could focused on my studies. In fact, girls would easily get me irritated mere lookingat them. I used to believe they had nothing to offer me. By the time I graduated and got posted to serve, I began to experience this. The nerves supplying blood to the peniss which would stimulate sensitivity inside a lady wasn't active anymore. I was always very hard but I wouldn't cum and the girl would eventually say guy pls im tired and I would feel nervous and uncomfortable. One day my gf came to see me with her friend . Suddenly the rain started and they said they must get home that night. They entered the rain when it was getting too late. I persuaded them to stay and I'd leave the room for them but they refused. I jammed the door and bid them goodnight after looking for a taxi for them but no one was in sight. A few minutes later they both came back drenched. I gave them clothe to wear, then slept off. The one who's my gf joined later joined me. Long story cut short, my wahala started, I was into it for over 2 hours , nothing came out until my gf said she was tired meanwhile we were disturbing the other girl . I was in pain. I pleaded with her to please caress me but she refused. I now asked jokingly if she could allow her friend then and she said nope loudly...leave my friend out of it. My gf slept off after taking a shower but I was awake. Her friend was just lifting her head intermittently. I asked pls can you help me? Just caress my body and I'd be fine. it happened...up to another 2 hours we were into it until it came out and I was cool. You know what, that was the beginning of my travail, from 1, to 2 and 3 same time in bed until I got delivered.

I'm so happy I got delivered from this act. At some point I was acting as if I had been charmed. I used to do menage a trois for me to be able to cum and that would take like 3 to 4 hours in turn...crazy. This is hard to believe but many guys are out there still suffering silently from this but think they are enjoying.

Here's the cause and solution...

When you masturbate for years, you get used to it, your ejaculation would always be delayed by the time you meet your spouse and if care isn't taken, you could wound her internally or go wild.

Solution: Avoid masturbation. It's a bad habit, though a good measure to prevent STD and avoid distraction coming from the opposite sex. The end result isn't always a palatable one.

I believe you could gradually get over this and please endeavour oray about it...my experience and advice are for married men only please.
Health / Re: Can A Delayed Ejaculation Actually Father A Child? by Publichealth: 3:13pm On May 04, 2021
If there is an Ejaculation, Whether delayed or not, It will father a child as long as it contains Viable sperms.
