This influence is a type of influenza is hosted by birds, but also affect other animals and especially humans. The virus is usually the influenza virus' A 'is a bit' different every time you broke the flu, because undergo evolutionary change. Obtain new virus, because the genetic mutation can be trained and given a number and a number of H-N, the differentProfiles pathogens. Some of the ones that are safe for the human population and did so in the past, H1N1 (Spanish flu, 1918-1919), H2N2 (Asian influenza, 1957-58), H3N2 (Hong Kong flu, 1968-69), etc. Some of these are identified extinct due to constant changes take place in the structure of the virus that destroys his ability for people not infected. Furthermore, new viruses, and currently are the most important pandemic (epidemic over a large geographical area) of threatVirus H5N1.

Making Cancer History

It's difficult to say why one person would get Cancer and another would not. Sometimes it may seem that Cancer cannot be avoided but there are things that one can do to reduce the risk of this most painful and sometimes fatal disease. You can start by living a healthy lifestyle and taking charge of your health. If Cancer can't be prevented, treatment is more likely to be successful if it's found early.

Early detection is finding cancer at an early state and is often easier to treat. Recognising symptoms and getting regular checkups help detect cancer early. Be aware of your body and don't ignore changes, as the sooner a report is made to your doctor, the sooner a problem can be dealt with.

Screening is the early detection of cancer by testing or checking for disease when one has no symptoms. Some cancers can be discovered this way and can be treated early.

It's important to note that no screening test for cancer is 100% accurate. For example a screening test can show signs of cancer when there is none, or not show cancer when there is.

Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer starts in the cells of the breast tissue. and covers an area larger than just the breast. It extends up to the colar bone and from the armpit across to the breastbone in the centre of the chest. It can also be found in men but is very rare. Breast Cancer can happen at any age, but most cases occur in women over the age of 50. It can be found and successfully treated if detected early.

A Mammography, a low-dose x-ray of the breasts, can be used to test for breast cancer.
Clinical Breast Examination (CBE) a physical examination of the breast by a trained professional.
Some women have a higher risk for breast cancer and should consider testing regularly if, you had breast cancer before; you have a history of breast biopsies; you have a family history of breast cancer.

Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer starts in the cells of the cervix and grows very slowly. The cells of the cervix start to change and become abnormal. These abnormal cells are precancerous, meaning that they are not cancer. Precancerous changes to the cervix are called cervical dysplasia.

Certain types of HPV virus can cause changes to cells in the cervix that may lead to cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer tests are, Pap Test which is a laboratory examination of cells taken from the cervix to detect changes. It can detect changes early before cancer develops.

Double Contrast Barium Enema is an x-ray of the colon and rectum, that uses a special dye called barium, that helps the doctor see the lining of the colon more clearly.

A person is at higher risk if a family member has the disease, has a personal history of colorectal cancer, is diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease or polyps or inherited condition of colon cancer.

Signs to look for aregeneral discomfort in the abdomen(bloating , fullness, cramps);change in bowel habits eg. Diarrhea or constipation; blood in the stools; narrower than usual stools; urgent need to have a bowel movement; feeling that the bowels have not been completely emptied;nausea and vomiting;fatigue; weight loss.

Stay in the shade or indoors, out of the sun during these times. Cover your skin if you have to be exposed to the rays of the sun, and wear a hat. Use a sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher.

Wearing sunglasses can prevent damage to the eyes. Avoid using indoor tanning equipment. Check skin regularly.

Signs to Look for are changes in shape colour and size of birthmarks and moles; sores that don't heal; patches of skin that bleed itch, or become red and bumpy.

Reducing the Risk of Cancer

You can reduce the risk of cancer by making healthy choices every day. At least half of all cancers can be prevented.

Take the necessary steps to become a non smoker and avoid second hand smoke. Eat 5 to 10 servings of fruit and vegetables a day. Choose high fibre and lower fat foods. Be physically active.
