Snake bites are a serious health issue in India, resulting in over 46,000 deaths per year. The document provides guidance on first aid for snake bites, including what to do (keep the victim calm, immobilize the bitten limb, quickly transport to the hospital) and what not to do (suck out venom, apply tourniquets, try to catch the snake). It also identifies the four most medically important venomous snakes in India - the "Big 4" - and emphasizes the importance of prevention through education and being vigilant about snakes.
There are over 3,000 species of snakes. Two third of the snakes are non venomous. Most snakes are not aggressive. They will usually retreat from danger. However if they start to feel threatened, they will strike. Snakes can strike a distance up to one-half their body length. Do not handle a freshly killed snake - it can still inject venom.
Termites are abundant throughout Sydney especially in Northern Beaches and North Shore areas. If you want to know the warning signs of these pests, how to prevent their infestation and the treatment options, have a look at this.

What to do with Snakes in and around the Backyard?Christopher Dill
Snakes by nature are shy creatures that avoid human contact. They are beneficial since they consume pests like mice, grubs, slugs, insects and other forms of wildlife but some species can be highly venomous and they pose a great risk to people and animals. Animal removal experts are often called to get rid of indoor snakes.http://animalcontrolva.com/blog/snakes-around-backyard/

Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

1. SNAKE-BITE FIRST AID
MANAGEMENT
Snake-bite is one of the more serious health issues, especially in India where deaths
due to snake-bites (I am referring to venomous snake-bites) are estimated well over
46,000 every year. Even though actual envenomation takes place less often, it is best
to stay prepared for an emergency. This is not only for people residing in remote
rural areas (who are the majority victims) but also for urban city residents. There has
been a transformation of habitat for snakes from forest systems >> farmlands >>
villages >> towns >> cities, but owing to their extraordinaire adaptive nature, they
have managed to survive everywhere. No doubt there are only a few common
species that are found in and around human habitation, unfortunately the list
includes the BIG 4!
These four species make up the BIG 4 medicinally important snakes of India. They
are lethally venomous and occur commonly throughout most of India. Of course
there are other species that too demand utmost respect like other cobras Naja
spp., kraits Bungarus spp., coral snakes Calliophis spp. and Sinomicrurus sp., King
Cobra Ophiophagus hannah, sea snakes (Hydrophiidae) and some pit vipers
(Viperidae). Bites are however in smaller numbers from these mostly because of
their distribution and biological pattern.
Most of the snake-bites take place unknowingly when the snake is accidentally
threatened. Whatever be the reason, it is not unlikely that you might end up in a
situation where a simple strategy and presence of mind can prove to be a limb-saver,
in some cases, a life-saver.
Firstly, Things NOT to Do:
Suck out venom
Make incision to bleed out venom
Go to traditional healers or anything similar
Try out home remedies
Apply tourniquets
Apply ice
Clean out the bitten part
Try and catch/kill the snake
All of the above activities either do not work or are extremely dangerous to
perform. In fact, they will do more harm than good.
2. Following is what you can and should do:
+ Make sure the victim and others are at a safe distance away from the snake; do
not attempt to capture the snake, get the victim and others away from the snake
+ Try to memorize the snake’s appearance (from a safe distance!)
+ Remove watches / rings / other jewelry from the bitten part
+ Keep the victim calm and reassured, do not panic, as trivial as it may sound, it
makes everything from the victim's ability to deal with the situation to your ability to
make decisions better
+ Try to immobilize the bitten limb; do not make the victim run and avoid making
him/her walk if possible
+ In case of neurotoxic bites (All elapids and hydrophiids: Cobras, King cobras, kraits,
coral snakes and sea snakes), pressure immobilization (Sutherland method) with
long crepe or other stretchy bandage (5 - 10 cm wide, several rolls) and splint to be
applied immediately to the bitten limb, starting at the digits and working up to the
groin or arm pit.
+ Do not waste any time and arrange for a quick transport to the nearest hospital
treating snake-bite cases, as safely and comfortably as possible
+ If possible, note the time of bite and progression of symptoms
+ Describe the snake and the whole incident to the attending doctor
*Anti Snake Venom Serum is the only cure*
If your neighborhood has a high density of snakes, it is advisable to prepare a snake-
bite protocol (plan of action in case of an emergency) best suited to you. This can
simply be important contact people and numbers who should be informed first,
name / address of nearest hospital treating snake-bites, best mode of transport and
related details, name / contact no. of doctor, etc. Make sure all family members
understand their role in an emergency.
3. Snake-bite first aid: pressure immobilization method

Cobra
The above 4 species account for most snake-bite deaths in India. Please be extra
careful if you are around these.
4. Prevention is always better than cure:
+ Education: Know your local snakes, know the sort of places where they like to live
and hide, at what times of year, at what times of day/night or in what kinds of
weather they are most likely to be active
+ Be especially vigilant about snake bites after rains, during flooding, at harvest time
and at night
+ Try to wear proper shoes or boots and long trousers, especially when walking in
the dark or in undergrowth. Always check footwear before wearing them!
+ Use torch / flashlight when walking at night
+ Avoid snakes as far as possible, including snakes performing for snake charmers.
Never handle, threaten or attack a snake and never intentionally trap or corner a
snake in an enclosed space
+ Take great care when clearing vegetation, raking dry leaves in outdoors
+ If at all possible, try to avoid sleeping on the ground
+ Keep young children away from areas known to be snake-infested
+ Avoid or take great care handling dead snakes, or snakes that appear to be dead.
+ Keep your backyard free of junk and make sure your solid waste is managed
properly. Waste attracts rats and rats attract snakes.
+ If you see a snake, do nothing; let it go. Do not try to pick it up or kill it.
+ If a snake has entered your premises, call professional snake catchers.
*Snake-bite is painful, expensive, and extremely risky. Please do not get bit.*
