Feeling the heat? โ˜€๏ธ Heat cramps can sneak up on you during your summer workouts. If you start to feel muscle cramps from losing too much salt and not drinking enough fluids, follow these steps:

- Move to a cool, shaded area.
- Hydrate with an oral electrolyte solution from your pharmacy or a sports drink (skip the energy drinks).
- Massage and stretch your cramped muscles.
- Rest and avoid strenuous exercise for a few hours.

Stay safe and beat the heat! ๐ŸŒก๏ธ๐Ÿ’ง

๐Ÿ” HOW TO DO A TESTICULAR SELF-EXAM AND WHAT TO LOOK FOR

Testicular self-exams are crucial for early detection of any anomalies, which can mean the difference between a difficult-to-treat cancer and full recovery.

Recommended self-exam method:

- After a shower or bath: Heat relaxes the sc***um, making it easier to detect irregularities.

- Stand in front of a mirror: Check for any signs of swelling or redness on the scrotal skin.

- Hold your sc***um: Feel the weight of your testicles. It's normal for one to be slightly larger or lower than the other.

- Roll each testicle: Gently but firmly roll each testicle between your thumb and fingers. They should feel smooth. Check for any lumps, growths, or abnormal sensitivity.

- If you notice anything unusual: Make an appointment with your doctor. Your doctor can also perform this exam during your annual check-up if you prefer.

Stay proactive about your health! ๐Ÿฉบ

๐Ÿšฟ Hot tub rash: what it is, how to resolve it, and how to prevent it.

Identify it: Hot tub folliculitis occurs when the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa infects hair follicles in hot, wet environments like contaminated hot tubs, spas, or pools. Look for an itchy, red, bumpy rash, especially under your swimsuit.

Resolve it: This rash usually clears up on its own if you avoid the contaminated water. Use anti-itch medication to ease discomfort, and in severe cases, antibiotics might be needed.

Prevent it: After hot tubbing, remove your swimsuit and shower promptly. Wash your swimsuit regularly and only bathe in sanitary tubs. If you own a hot tub, regularly check the pH and disinfectant levels.

Stay rash-free and enjoy your soak! ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ›

Lice are tiny (1-3 mm) insects that live near hair roots and can also be found in eyebrows or beards. These greyish-white (or reddish-brown after feeding) parasites lay about 5 nits (eggs) daily, which hatch in approximately 10 days. Live nits, resembling swollen dandruff or sesame seeds, cling to hair within 6 cm of the scalp and are tough to remove.

Lice feed on human blood, causing itching and small red sores from their bites, often near the ears and nape of the neck. Itching can start 4-6 weeks after infestation.

Head scratching may indicate lice, but only a visual inspection with a fine-toothed comb can confirm it. Remember, finding nits doesnโ€™t always mean you have lice, as inactive or empty nits can remain post-treatment.

Stay informed and protect your family.
