Make up and skin care is generally regarded as womens forte. Men seldom indulge in Make up and skin care. Many men do care for their skin but make up is really alien to most men. Treating make up and skin care as different topics wouldnt make sense; after all, make up will work only if the skin is healthy. So how do you exercise make up and skin care, together? Here are some tips for make up and skin care:* Always have skin care on mind, whether you are buying products for make up or actually applying them onto your skin after you have bought them. So what you are buying is a make up and skin care product, not just a make up product. Check the ingredients to see if it contains things that you might be allergic to. Also check if it contains high concentration chemicals that can harm your skin.* Make up and skin care is also about testing the products before using them. So, apply the make up on a small patch of skin e.g. earlobes and check how your skin reacts to it.* Keep track of expiry date on your make up products and never use them beyond the expiry date. In fact some products (e.g. vitamin C based products), if not stored properly, get spoilt much earlier than the expiry date. * Cleanliness is an important part of make up and skin care procedure. Sharpen your eye-liners regularly and keep all your makeup equipment clean at all times. You might fix a date, each month, for overhauling of your equipment. As part of cleanliness, your make up and skin care procedure should also include keeping your hair clean at all times. * Nail care is another important aspect of make up and skin care. Use a good quality nail polish and always keep your nails clean. Once you are done with cleaning and polishing your nails, you should rub in cuticle oil at the edges of the nail. * If you have deep-set eyes, you should use a liquid eye liner instead of a pencil one. This will prevent smudging at the deep edges of your eye-lid. * If you have a skin disorder e.g. acne, you should not apply heavy or chemical based make up. Consult your dermatologist if you are not sure about the make up products that you can use while you have acne or other skin disorder. Never try to squeeze pimples/ acne. Remember that make up and skin care should not conflict each other. * Use a mild make up remover (instead of just washing it away). * Another important make up and skin care procedure is the following golden rule: Never sleep with your make up on* While applying a deodorant, make sure that you maintain the recommended distance between the nozzle and your skin (as mentioned on the deodorant pack).So, make up and skin care should always go hand in hand. Do not try to treat make up and skin care differently.

The most common causes of indigestion are gastro esophageal acid reflux and functional dyspepsia.

Gastroesophageal Acid Reflux:

Acid reflux can result from a variety of physiologic defects. Reduced lower esophageal sphincter (LES) tone is an important cause of reflux in scleroderma and pregnancy.

Many individuals exhibit frequent transient LES relaxations during which acid bathes the esophagus. Overeating and aerophagia can transiently override the barrier function of the LES, whereas impaired esophageal body motility and reduced salivary secretion prolong acid exposure.

Gastric Motor Dysfunction

Disturbed gastric motility is purported to cause acid reflux in some cases of indigestion. Delayed gastric emptying is also found in 25-50% of functional dyspeptics.

Impaired gastric fundus relaxation after eating may underlie selected dyspeptic symptoms like bloating, nausea, and early satiety.

Visceral Afferent Hypersensitivity

Disturbed gastric sensory function is proposed as a pathogenic factor in functional dyspepsia. dyspeptic patients experience discomfort with fundic distention to lower pressures than healthy controls.

Other Factors

Helicobacter pylori has a clear etiologic role in peptic ulcer disease, but ulcers cause a minority of cases of dyspepsia. Infection with H. pylori is considered to be a minor factor in the genesis of functional dyspepsia.

Analgesics cause dyspepsia, while nitrates, calcium channel blockers, theophylline, and progesterone promote acid reflux.

Other exogenous stimuli that induce acid reflux include ethanol, tobacco, and caffeine via LES relaxation. Genetic factors may contribute to development of acid reflux.

Differential Diagnosis

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Functional Dyspepsia

Functional dyspepsia, the cause of symptoms in 60% of dyspeptic patients, is defined as 3 months of bothersome postprandial fullness, early satiety, epigastric pain, or epigastric burning with symptom onset at least 6 months before diagnosis in the absence of organic cause.

Ulcer Disease

The most common causes of ulcer disease are gastric infection with H. pylori and use of NSAIDs.

Other rare causes of gastroduodenal ulcer include Crohn’s disease and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome a condition resulting from gastrin overproduction by an endocrine tumor.

Malignancy

Dyspeptic patients often seek care because of fear of cancer. Esophagealsquamous cell carcinoma occurs most often in those with histories of tobacco or ethanol intake.

Other risk factors include prior caustic ingestion, achalasia, and the hereditary disorder tylosis. Esophageal adenocarcinoma usually complicates long-standing acid reflux.

Other Causes

Alkaline reflux esophagitis produces GERD-like symptoms in patients who have had surgery for peptic ulcer disease.

Opportunistic fungal or viral esophageal infections may produce heartburn or chest discomfort but more often cause odynophagia. Other causes of esophageal inflammation include eosinophilic esophagitis and pill esophagitis.

LYCOPODIUM:

It suits to the patients with vigorous appetite ,but after eating a small quantity of food he feels so bloated
