了解阴道炎，关注阴道健康
了解阴道炎，关注阴道健康 By Island Hospital | May 13, 2024 12:00:00 PM 阴道炎是很多女性难以启齿的妇科疾病之一。 研究表明，不少患有阴道炎的女性为此而感到焦虑和羞耻。其中，这种心理状态在阴道炎反复发作的女性群体中尤为严重。 然而，患上阴道炎并不可耻。今天，让我们通过这篇文章，一起来全面了解阴道炎这个常见的妇科疾病吧！ 简单了解阴道分泌物 深入了解阴道炎之前，我们得先了解阴道分泌物，因为这是诊断阴道炎的重要依据。 阴道分泌物也被称为“白带”，主要由阴道皮肤细胞、寄生在阴道内的各种细菌以及子宫等分泌的液体组成。这些分泌物不仅有抗菌的功效，同时也起着润滑阴道的作用。 正常的阴道分泌物一般呈白色或透明，不会有强烈或难闻的气味。根据月经周期和荷尔蒙变化等因素，阴道分泌物的粘稠度和分泌量也有所不同。怀孕期间、进行性活动时或服用口服避孕药后，阴道可能会产生较多的分泌物。 什么是阴道炎？ 顾名思义，阴道炎是发生在阴道的炎症。 患上阴道炎的原因一般包括： 不当的个人卫生习惯：不常或过度清洁阴道、排尿或排便后习惯由后往前擦拭 阴道长期处于潮湿的环境中 阴道受到刺激或产生过敏反应 阴道或盆腔组织损伤 阴道菌群失调 阴道感染了细菌、真菌等致病微生物 雌激素水平下降 阴道炎的种类 阴道炎可分为非感染性和感染性两大类。 非感染性阴道炎多由阴道受到刺激、损伤或产生过敏反应所致；感染性阴道炎则由细菌、原虫、病毒、真菌等致病微生物引起。 感染性阴道炎的类型繁多。其中，细菌性阴道炎、念珠菌性阴道炎及滴虫性阴道炎属于常见的感染性阴道炎。 阴道炎的症状 普遍上，阴道炎的症状包括： 阴道分泌物的气味、颜色或分泌量出现变化 阴道红肿、疼痛或瘙痒 性交和排尿时感到疼痛 阴道轻微出血 值得注意的是，不同类型的感染性阴道炎会出现不同的症状，详见下表： 阴道炎种类症状 细菌性阴道炎 阴道不会感到瘙痒。 阴道分泌物呈泡沫状；灰白色。 阴道分泌物带有腥味。 念珠菌性阴道炎 阴道瘙痒。...

手足口症来袭，你准备好了吗？
手足口症来袭，你准备好了吗？ By Island Hospital | Apr 19, 2024 12:00:00 PM 手足口症是全球常见的传染病之一。可是，你了解这个疾病吗? 只有小孩才会感染手足口症吗？这个疾病的症状只会出现在手、脚和口腔吗？曾经感染手足口症的人是否就终生免疫了呢?… 若你对上述问题仍有些许疑惑，这篇文章将让你更了解手足口症。一起来看看吧! 什么是手足口症？ 手足口症 (Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease, HFMD) 又名发疹性水疱性口腔炎。由于这个疾病主要导致手、脚、口腔等部位出现疱疹，故俗称为“手足口症”或“手足口病”。 这个疾病是由多种肠道病毒引起的传染病。其中，肠道病毒71型 (Enterovirus 71, EV71) 和柯萨奇病毒A16型 (Coxsackievirus A16, Cox A16) 是最常见的病原体。 值得注意的是，手足口症虽多发生于5岁以下的儿童，但各年龄层都有感染此疾病的风险。不过，成人的症状一般比儿童来得轻，故容易被忽视。 手足口症的症状 手足口症的潜伏期通常是3 至 6 天。过了潜伏期，手足口症患者将出现以下症状： 轻度症状中度症状重度症状 发烧 (37.2°C以上) 咽喉疼痛 全身不适 舌头、牙龈、脸颊内侧、手掌、脚掌、臀部或生殖器出现小水疱或皮疹，伴有疼痛感 食欲不振...

腰痛怎么办？深入解析腰痛原因与解决方法！
腰痛怎么办？深入解析腰痛原因与解决方法！ By Island Hospital | Apr 8, 2024 3:00:00 PM 腰痛是常见的健康问题，任何人都可能受其影响。 2018年的数据显示，70%至85%的人在一生中至少会经历一次腰痛。 然而，持续的腰痛不仅影响生活质量，严重时甚至会导致行动不便，危害身心健康。 现在，让我们深入了解腰痛这一现象，看看腰痛时该怎么办吧！ 什么是腰痛？ 腰痛是指肋骨下方和臀部上方的身体部位疼痛，常发生于30岁至50岁的人群。 腰痛可分为： 特异性腰痛 (specific lower back pain)：因脊柱相关疾病或结构性问题而造成的腰部疼痛，或是从身体其他部位通过腰部传送来的疼痛。 非特异性腰痛 (non-specific lower back pain)：无法确定疼痛的具体病因或结构性原因的腰部疼痛，约90%的病例属于此例，如：腰部扭伤（俗称 “闪到腰”）等。 腰痛的痛感共有3种： 急性（痛感持续4周或更少） 亚急性（痛感持续4至12周） 慢性（痛感持续超过12周） 腰痛的原因 想知道腰痛时该怎么办，就得先知道造成腰痛的原因，才能对症下药。 以下是一些导致腰痛的常见原因： 退行性疾病：椎间盘相关疾病、骨关节炎、骨质疏松症等。 创伤性原因：韧带破裂或扭伤、肌肉痉挛或拉伤、背部创伤等。 结构性异常：椎间盘凸出或椎间盘脱出、脊椎滑脱、坐骨神经痛等。 炎症性疾病：脊柱关节炎等。 其他原因：腰部肌肉劳损、举重物的姿势不当、长期久坐、姿势不良等。 其中，退行性疾病是指随着人体老化、身体机能逐渐衰退而引起的疾病。 腰痛的诊断方式 造成腰痛的原因相当多样。 因此，医生一般会让你进行X 光检查、计算机断层扫描（CT...

想降低胆固醇？那就远离这些食物吧！
想降低胆固醇？那就远离这些食物吧！ By Island Hospital | Mar 25, 2024 11:00:00 AM 胆固醇是血液中的一种脂质 (lipid)，在人体的各种功能中扮演重要的角色。然而，当血液中含有过量的胆固醇时，这将妨碍血液的流通，从而引发一系列的健康问题。 每年，全球至少有440万人因高胆固醇相关疾病而丧生。 如果你的胆固醇水平过高，别担心！健康的饮食习惯是有助于降低胆固醇的。 在这个世界卫生日，让我们一起来关注心血管健康，看看胆固醇高的人究竟不能吃什么吧！ 什么是胆固醇？ 进入正题之前，我们先来简单了解胆固醇。 胆固醇是形成人体细胞膜的必要成分之一，同时也是合成胆汁酸、维生素D以及甾体激素的原料。 胆固醇共有两种——低密度脂蛋白（LDL，全称 low-density lipoprotein，俗称“坏胆固醇”）和高密度脂蛋白（HDL，全称 high-density lipoprotein，俗称 “好胆固醇”）。 其中，LDL是导致各种健康问题的元凶。 若血管内有过多的LDL，它们将在血管中形成脂肪沉积。长久以往，这些沉积物可能会破裂并形成凝块。这将阻断血流，进而引发心脏病、中风等其他疾病。 因此， 我们常说的 “胆固醇高” 通常是指LDL水平过高；“降低胆固醇” 一般上是指要降低LDL水平。 另一方面，HDL则负责将各种形式的胆固醇和脂肪沉积带给肝脏处理，再排出体外。这样，我们的血液就得以在血管中畅通无阻，从而有效降低罹患心血管疾病的风险。 胆固醇高不能吃什么？ 提高LDL（坏胆固醇）水平、降低HDL（好胆固醇）水平的食品是胆固醇水平过高的人应该少吃，甚至是不能吃的，具体详情如下： 高反式脂肪的食物 反式脂肪 (trans fat) 是人造的食用脂肪，主要存在于： 1. 精炼植物油玉米油 （0.25 g trans fat/100...

骨痛热症：完整指南
骨痛热症：完整指南 By Island Hospital | Mar 22, 2024 2:00:00 PM 骨痛热症，也称为登革热 (dengue fever) 和断骨热 (break-bone fever)，主要通过蚊子传播，是全球最普遍的蚊媒疾病之一。 20多年以来，世界各地的骨痛热症病例逐年增加。 根据世界卫生组织 (WHO) 的报告，骨痛热症的全球发病率由2000年的约50万例增至约420万例（2022年），每年更是平均夺走2万条人命！ 可见，骨痛热症的危害不容忽视。一起来深入了解这个疾病吧！ 什么是骨痛热症？ 骨痛热症是由骨痛热症病毒 (dengue virus) 引起的病毒性热病 (viral fever)。该病毒共有四个变种——DENV-1、DENV-2、DENV-3 和 DENV-4。 染上某个病毒变种后，人们将对该变种终身免疫。然而，若不幸接触到其他病毒变种，人们有机会再次感染骨痛热症，症状也将比之前更严重。 骨痛热症常见于热带与亚热带气候的地区，因为这些地区的气候炎热潮湿，为蚊子提供了生存、繁殖和传播病毒所需的理想条件。 骨痛热症的传播途径 骨痛热症主要通过带有骨痛热症病毒的雌性黑斑蚊（或称伊蚊，Aedes mosquito）传染给人类。与一般蚊子不同，黑斑蚊的身上及脚上拥有白色环纹，相当有辨识度。 当受病毒感染的蚊子叮咬人类后，该病毒将进入人体。接着，人们将在未来的3至14天（平均4至7天）内出现骨痛热症的症状。 骨痛热症的症状 一般上，大部分感染骨痛热症的人仅出现轻微症状，有时甚至没有任何症状。 轻微症状： 突发的持续性高烧 (39℃ 或以上) 皮疹（皮肤出现红色斑点） 骨骼、肌肉、关节、眼球后方以及头部剧痛 腺体肿大...
