The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that almost half of all adults worldwide will experience a headache in any given year. A headache can be a sign of stress or emotional distress, or it can result from a medical disorder, such as migraine or high blood pressure, anxiety, or depression. It can lead to other problems. People with chronic migraine headaches, for example, may find it hard to attend work or school regularly.
Headaches are one of the most common ailments, with most people experiencing a headache at some point in their life.They can affect anyone regardless of age, race and gender. The most common causes of headache are tension and sinusitis. The pain may be a dull ache, sharp, throbbing, constant, intermittent, mild, or intense.
Bells palsy-causes |management |a brief medical studymartinshaji
Bell's palsy causes sudden weakness in your facial muscles. This makes half of your face appear to droop. Your smile is one-sided, and your eye on that side resists closing.
Bell's palsy, also known as facial palsy, can occur at any age. The exact cause is unknown, but it's believed to be the result of swelling and inflammation of the nerve that controls the muscles on one side of your face. It may be a reaction that occurs after a viral infection.
For most people, Bell's palsy is temporary. Symptoms usually start to improve within a few weeks, with complete recovery in about six months. A small number of people continue to have some Bell's palsy symptoms for life. Rarely, Bell's palsy can recur.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

1. CHAPTER 9
REHABILITATION OF INJURIES
• Rehabilitation is any process that seeks to restore a
patient to a previous level of health.
Rehabilitation of injury to the head, neck and face
Head injury
• Head injury refers to trauma of the head.
• This may or may not include injury to the brain.
• However, the terms traumatic brain injury and head
injury are often used interchangeably in medical
literature.
2. Classification
• Head injuries include both injuries to the brain and those
to other parts of the head, such as the scalp and skull.
• Head injuries may be closed or open.
• A closed head injury is where the dura mater remains
intact.
• The skull can be fractured, but not necessarily.
• A penetrating head injury occurs when an object pierces
the skull and breaches the dura mater.
• Brain injuries may be diffuse, occurring over a wide area,
or local, located in a small, specific area.
• A head injury may cause skull fracture, which may or may
not be associated with injury to the brain.
3. Continued…
Specific problems after head injury can include:
• Skull fracture
• Lacerations to the scalp and resulting hemorrhage of
the skin.
• Traumatic subdural hematoma, a bleeding below the
dura mater which may develop slowly.
• Traumatic extradural, or epidural hematoma,
bleeding between the dura mater and the skull.
• Traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage.
• Cerebral contusion, a bruise of the brain.
• Concussion, a loss of function due to trauma.
• A severe injury may lead to a coma or death.
4. Concussion
• Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an exchangeable
word used for the word concussion.
• This term refers to a mild brain injury.
• This injury is a result due to a blow to the head
that could make the person’s physical, cognitive,
and emotional behaviors irregular.
• Symptoms may include: Clumsiness, Fatigue,
Confusion, Nausea, Blurry Vision, Headaches,
and etc.
5. Continued…
• Common symptoms of head injury include coma,
confusion, drowsiness, personality change, seizures,
nausea & vomiting, and headache.
• Symptoms of skull fracture can include:
• leaking cerebrospinal fluid (a clear fluid drainage
from nose, mouth or ear).
• visible deformity or depression in the head or face;
for example a sunken eye can indicate a maxillar
fracture.
• an eye that cannot move or is deviated to one side
can indicate that a broken facial bone is pinching a
nerve that innervates eye muscles
• Wounds or bruises on the scalp or face.
6. Causes
• Common causes of head injury are motor vehicle
traffic collisions, home and occupational accidents,
falls, and assaults.
• Bicycle accidents are also a cause of head injury-
related death and disability, especially among
children.
Diagnosis
• The need for imaging in patients who have suffered
a minor head injury is debated.
• CT scan of the head should be performed
immediately in all those who have suffered a
moderate or severe head injury, an MRI is also an
option.
7. Management
• Most head injuries require no treatment beyond
analgesics and close monitoring for potential
complications such as intracranial bleeding.
• If the brain has been severely damaged by
trauma, neurosurgical evaluation may be useful.
• Head injury may be associated with a neck injury.
• Bruises on the back or neck, neck pain, or pain
radiating to the arms are signs of cervical spine
injury and merit spinal immobilization via
application of a cervical collar.
8. Rehabilitating Neck Injuries
• Most non-traumatic conditions that produce neck
pain can be managed with physiotherapy to
augment rehabilitation.
• One key role the physiotherapist can often play is to
reassure the patient that the injury is not serious.
• After that, the goal of immediate treatment is to
minimize pain and inflammation with
recommendations of anti-inflammatory drugs,
application of TENS, icing, and in some cases
immediate manipulation.
• The physiotherapist will perform an examination to
determine if manipulation is clinically warranted at
the onset of treatment.
9. Immediate Treatment
• A specific diagnosis of non-traumatic neck pain is
sometimes difficult to make, especially if the pain is
localized.
• Therefore, the physiotherapist’s key role can be in
assuring the athlete that the problem is not serious.
• If the patient has normal strength and reflexes and
a history consistent with mechanical pain, he or she
can be told with confidence that no significant
herniated disk or nerve injury exists, and that
resolution or control of symptoms is expected
without surgery.
10. Continued…
• In the acute phase, the goal is to minimize pain and
inflammation.
• Initial treatment of acute injuries consists of
manipulation, electrotherapy, and anti-inflammatory
drugs.
• Further, frequent self-administered ice packs to the
painful area for 10 to 15 minutes, and home stretching.
• The patient should discontinue activities that aggravate
symptoms.
• As pain and inflammation are being controlled, the
athlete is advanced to the recovery phase of
rehabilitation, where the goal is to recover lost function.
