Pity feet

We demand a lot from our feet with the weight from entire part of our body trunk put on them. Our poor aching feet take more punishment in one day than all other parts of the body put together. In this regard, proper footwear is very important. Poorly fitting shoes can really kill you. Because your feet support your body structure, you tend to walk, stand and sit differently when your feet are in pain. This will turn hurt your back and neck. Let's look at the differences between 2 popular shoe's design:

So, what kind of shoes to wear?

According to the consultant podiatric surgeon and spokesman for the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists in Uk, Dr O'Neill says '"The feet aren't designed to work in either flats or high heels. The ideal heel size is around an inch." However it is not mention that it can't murder on your feet. The best thing is change your shoe style often. Besides, you need to walk around bare-footed at home to give your feet a good rest from any sort of footwear and walk to work in trainers, not flats.

"Runny" nose and nosebleeds

I'm sure all of us have been experienced in ''runny" nose while exposed to cold air. Do you had ever think why it is happen? In our nasal cavity, there are ciliated cells structured of the respiratory mucosa which create a gentle current that moves the sheet of contaminated mucus posteriorly toward the throat where it is swallowed and digested by stomach juices. When exposed to cold air, our nasal cilia become sluggish, allowing mucus to accumulate in the nasal cavity and then dribble out the nostrils. Together along with the fact that water vapour in expired air tends to condense at these lower temperature help explain why you might had "runny" nose on a crisp. On the other hand, rich plexuses of capillaries and thin-walled veins underlie the nasal epithelium and warm incoming air as it flows across the mucosal surface. When the inspired air is cold, the vascular plexus becomes engorged with blood, thereby intensifying the air-heating process. How great The Creator? If we don't have this mechanism, can you imagine how will you look like when you inhale -4°C air into your lung in certain country during winter? However, during hot day, some of us might had experienced nosebleeds because of the abundance of blood vessels at this area dilate and get nearer to the surface in order to loses some heat. There are possibilities that some of the blood vessels burst and cause bleeding.

Why don't skeletons have noses?

Great question! When you look at a human skeleton, you see an empty hole where the nose should be. That's because most of the nose is made of different stuff than the skull, which is the bone behind the face and covering the brain. At the top of your nose are two little nasal bones that form the bridge of your nose. Touch the area on your nose where glasses sit and you'll feel those bones. But the rest of your nose is made of cartilage. This is a flexible material that's softer than bone. If you press the tip of your nose, you'll feel the cartilage. This stuff doesn't last longer as long as bone after death which is why skeletons don't have nose.

Bagaimana kedutan di wajah terjadi?

Kedutan biasanya wujud apabila usia kita semakin meningkat. Pada usia muda, kedutan pada kulit mungkin disebabkan oleh perkara lain misalnya ketika kita menjeling, ketawa atau mengerutkan dahi. Kita dapat lihat kulit akan mengerut sedikit dan menghasilkan kedutan yang bersifat sementara. Namun, satu hari kelak, anda akan mendapat kedutan kekal kerana ia merupakan sebahagian daripada proses penuaan.

Persoalannya, apakah yang meyebabkan kedutan pada orang tua? Kadangkala kedutan disebabkan otot di bawah kulit semakin lemah. Anda mula mendapati kesan graviti apabila kulit yang melekat kepada otot mula kendur sedikit. Kadangkala kedutan disebabkan oleh lapisan kulit hilang keanjalan justeru meyebabkan ia mula berlipat dan berkedut. Anda dinasihatkan untuk tidak terlalu lama terdedah di bawah cahaya matahari tanpa memakai pelindung. Anda juga dinasihatkan untuk TIDAK MEROKOK. Jika anda tidak peduli tentang paru-paru anda akan rosak, cubalah ambil berat bahawa merokok akan menyebabkan muka anda lebih cepat berkedut.
