Behavior disorder of children

Behavioural disorders in children

All young children can be naughty, defiant and impulsive from time to time, which is perfectly normal. However, some children have extremely difficult and challenging behaviours that are outside the norm for their age.

The most common disruptive behaviour disorders include

oppositional defiant disorder (ODD),
conduct disorder (CD) and
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

These three behavioural disorders share some common symptoms, so diagnosis can be difficult and time consuming. A child or adolescent may have two disorders at the same time. Other exacerbating factors can include emotional problems, mood disorders, family difficulties and substance abuse.

Oppositional defiant disorder

Around one in ten children under the age of 12 years are thought to have oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), with boys outnumbering girls by two to one. Some of the typical behaviours of a child with ODD include:

Easily angered, annoyed or irritated
Frequent temper tantrums
Argues frequently with adults, particularly the most familiar adults in their lives, such as parents
Refuses to obey rules
Seems to deliberately try to annoy or aggravate others
Low self-esteem
Low frustration threshold
Seeks to blame others for any misfortunes or misdeeds.

Conduct disorder

Children with conduct disorder (CD) are often judged as ‘bad kids’ because of their delinquent behaviour and refusal to accept rules. Around five per cent of 10 year olds are thought to have CD, with boys outnumbering girls by four to one. Around one-third of children with CD also have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Some of the typical behaviours of a child with CD may include:

Frequent refusal to obey parents or other authority figures
Repeated truancy
Tendency to use drugs, including cigarettes and alcohol, at a very early age
Lack of empathy for others
Being aggressive to animals and other people or showing sadistic behaviours including bullying and physical or sexual abuse
Keenness to start physical fights
Using weapons in physical fights
Frequent lying
Criminal behaviour such as stealing, deliberately lighting fires, breaking into houses and vandalism
A tendency to run away from home
Suicidal tendencies although these are more rare.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder


Around two to five per cent of children are thought to have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

(ADHD), with boys outnumbering girls by three to one. The characteristics of ADHD can include:



Inattention – difficulty concentrating, forgetting instructions, moving from one task to another without completing anything.

Impulsivity – talking over the top of others, having a ‘short fuse’, being accident-prone.

Overactivity – constant restlessness and fidgeting.



Risk factors in children’s behavioural disorders


The causes of ODD, CD and ADHD are unknown but some of the risk factors include:



Gender – boys are much more likely than girls to suffer from behavioural disorders. It is unclear if the cause is genetic or linked to socialisation experiences.

Gestation and birth – difficult pregnancies, premature birth and low birth weight may contribute in some cases to the child’s problem behaviour later in life.

Temperament – children who are difficult to manage, temperamental or aggressive from an early age are more likely to develop behavioural disorders later in life.

Family life – behavioural disorders are more likely in dysfunctional families. For example, a child is at increased risk in families where domestic violence, poverty, poor parenting skills or substance abuse are a problem.

Learning difficulties –problems with reading and writing are often associated with behaviour problems.

Intellectual disabilities – children with intellectual disabilities are twice as likely to have behavioural disorders.

Brain development – studies have shown that areas of the brain that control attention appear to be less active in children with ADHD.



Diagnosis of children’s behavioural disorders


Disruptive behavioural disorders are complicated and may include many different factors working in combination. For example, a child who exhibits the delinquent behaviours of CD may also have ADHD, anxiety, depression, and a difficult home life.


Diagnosis methods may include:



Diagnosis by a homoeopaths or psychologist or child psychiatrist

In-depth interviews with the parents, child and teachers

Behaviour check lists or standardised questionnaires.



A diagnosis is made if the child’s behaviour meets the criteria for disruptive behaviour disorders in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders from the American Psychiatric Association.


It is important to rule out acute stressors that might be disrupting the child’s behaviour. For example, a sick parent or victimising by other children might be responsible for sudden changes in a child’s typical behaviour and these factors have to be considered initially.


Treatment of behavioural disorders in children


Untreated children with behavioural disorders may grow up to be dysfunctional adults. “Generally, the earlier  the intervention, the better the outcome is likely to be”.


A large study in the United States, conducted for the National Institute of Mental Health and the Office of School Education Programs, showed that carefully designed medication management and behavioural treatment for ADHD improved all measures of behaviour in school and at home.


Treatment is usually multifaceted and depends on the particular disorder and factors contributing to it, but may include:



Parental education – for example, teaching parents how to communicate with and manage their children.


Family therapy – the entire family is helped to improve communication and problem- solving skills.

Cognitive behavioural therapy – to help the child to control their thoughts and behaviour.

Social training – the child is taught important social skills, such as how to have a conversation or play cooperatively with others.

Anger management – the child is taught how to recognise the signs of their growing frustration and given a range of coping skills designed to defuse their anger and aggressive behaviour. Relaxation techniques and stress management skills are also taught.

Support for associated problems – for example, a child with a learning difficulty will benefit from professional support.

Encouragement – many children with behavioural disorders experience repeated failures at school and in their interactions with others. Encouraging the child to excel in their particular talents (such as sport) can help to build self-esteem.

Medication –only homoeopathy drugs are safe to help control impulsive behaviours.

Things to remember



Some children have extremely difficult and challenging behaviours that are outside the norm for their age.

These problems can result from temporary stressors in the child’s life, or they might represent more enduring disorders. The most common disruptive behaviour disorders include oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), conduct disorder (CD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Boys are more likely than girls to suffer from behavioural disorders.

Treatment options include parent management training, cognitive behaviour therapy,homoeopathy medication and treatment for associated problems.

OSTEO ARTHRITIS

A common disorder in aged person now a days is been knee pain either both side or one side. The main symptoms are they have intense pain while walking or rising from sitting, unable to squat, difficult to stand for long, swelling of joint, crackling of joints, change in shape of legs etc..

Patient usually prefer immediate pain relief so the take high powerful pain killers some times with steroids. This will 100% leads to liver pathology or acute or chronic renal failure an irreversible change.

The main reason for increasing in renal failure cases is intake of so much pain killers and powerful antibiotics.

Another important thing is some people do some foolish advertisements like they will cure osteoarthritis or this product will cure this never fall in these business traps and waste your money.

The reason for knee pain is osteoporosis degeneration of knee joint and narrowing of joint space so these are irreversible change so it can't be cured only palliation can be done.

The best and harmless and free from.side effect medicine is homoeopathy so always go for homoeopathy for these irreversible disorder so other organs would be safe and saved.

WHEY PROTEIN

WHEY PROTEIN:

Milk is made of two proteins, casein and whey. Whey protein can be separated from the casein in milk or formed as a by-product of cheese making.Whey protein is considered a complete protein and contains all 9 essential amino acids and is low in lactose content.

USES:

People commonly use it as supplementation, alongside resistance exercise, to help improve muscle protein synthesis and promote the growth of lean tissue mass.

Whey protein composition:

Whey protein is a mixture of the following:

*.Beta-lactoglobulin
*.Alpha-lactalbumin
*.Bovine serum albumin
*.Immunoglobins.

Whey protein types:

There are three primary types of whey protein :

whey protein concentrate (WPC),
whey protein isolate (WPI), and
whey protein hydrolysate (WPH).

Let's look at each of these in turn:

*.Whey protein concentrate- WPC contains low levels of fat and low levels ofcarbohydrates(lactose). The percentage of protein in WPC depends onhow concentrated it is. Lower end concentrates tend to have 30% protein and higher end up to 90%

*.Whey protein isolate- WPIs are further processed to remove all the fat and lactose. WPI is usually at least 90% protein
*.Whey protein hydrolysate- WPH is considered to be the "predigested" form of whey protein as it has already undergone partial hydrolysis - a process necessary for the body to absorb protein.
WPH doesn't require as much digestion as the other two forms of whey protein.

In addition, it is commonly used in medical protein supplements and infant formulas because of it's improved digestibility and reduced allergen potential.

BENEFITS OF WHEY:

Possible health benefits of whey protein There are many benefits associated with the consumption of whey protein, and researchers are constantly finding new possible therapeutic properties.
Note that many of these potential benefits are based on single studies and more evidence is required before making definitive judgement.Aiding weight loss According to one study, published in Nutrition & Metabolism, people who took a specialized whey fraction "lost significantly more body fat and showed a greater preservation of lean musclecompared to subjects consuming the control beverage." Anti-cancer properties Promising results were published in the journal Anticancer Researchfor the use of whey protein concentrate (WPC) and glutathione modulation in cancer treatment. Lowering cholesterol According to a study published inThe British Journal of Nutrition,"there was a significant decrease in total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol at week 12 in the whey groupcompared with the casein (group)." Asthma Whey protein could improve immune response in children with asthma. One study, published in the International Journal of Food Science and Nutrition, found that children with asthma who were supplemented with whey for one month hadan improved cytokine response. Lowering blood pressure and reducingrisk of cardiovascular disease Research published in the International Dairy Journal found that beverages that were supplemented with whey protein significantly reduced blood pressure in patients with hypertension, their risk of developing heart disease orvstroke was also lower.A study published in the journal Clinical and Investigative Medicine found that whey protein may help the HIV patients from weight loss.

ACNE THE COMMON PROBLEM

Acne Vulgaris


Acne usually begins in the teenage years and disappears after eight to10 years. In some cases, it can persist until the 30s and even 40s.

Acne is caused by inflammation of the hair follicles. It most commonly affects the face, back and chest Features include blackheads, whiteheads, pimples (zits) and cysts. In severe cases, acne may lead to permanent scarring.

Cysts are lumps under the skin that have pus and other tissue in them, but do not come to a head like pimples do. They can cause scarring, blotchy, uneven skin colour and pitting.

Unfortunately, acne hits people at a time when they most want to look their best. Acne can make teenagers feel embarrassed and bad about themselves.

If your acne is severe, causing scarring or severe distress, then you may need a referral to a HOMOEOPATH for treatment. After a course of treatment most people are cured of their acne.

While there are various surgical and laser treaments that can help acne scarring, the best treatment for acne scarring is prevention. Seek professional homoeopath advice for acne early.

If you are concerned about skin problems or skin care, you should talk to your doctor for information about possible treatments.



Acne - hormones and genetics

At the start of puberty, androgen hormones are released into the body. Both boys and girls have androgens, but boys have more of them. Androgens cause the oil glands in the skin of the face, neck, back, shoulders and chest to enlarge and to produce more oil (sebum).

Bacteria that normally live on the skin surface digest the oil and by-products from this digestion irritate the skin, block the pores and produce blackheads, pimples and cysts.

Girls tend to reach puberty earlier than boys and develop acne at a younger age. Acne can become worse or ‘break out’ at certain times of a girl’s menstrual cycle, usually just before a period.


Psychological 

“Increased acne severity is associated with increased stress levels”.-The national institute of health


Infectious 

Staphylococcus aureus and propionibacterium acnes are common cause for acne



Self-help strategies for acne

Suggestions to manage acne include:


Cleansing – using cleansers specifically developed for acne-prone skin can help. Try washing the affected areas twice per day. Don’t overdo it. Too much cleansing can cause other skin problems, such as dryness or skin irritations. Try to keep hair clean and off the face and neck, as oil from the hair can make acne worse.
Make up – choose water-based, oil-free products where possible to avoid worsening acne by clogging the pores with oils or powder. Make up should be thoroughly removed before going to bed.
Don’t squeeze – picking and squeezing pimples can make them worse and lead to scarring.
Diet – there is some weak evidence that a low-Glycemic Index diet may help some people with  acne. Many people think that lollies or chocolate cause pimples. Research has not shown any  strong link with these foods, but if you notice that eating certain foods causes pimples for you,  try avoiding them.



Treatment for acne – non-prescription

A cleanser for acne-prone skin may be all that is needed for mild acne. Don’t rely on advertisements or the advice of friends.

Treatment for acne – professional  HOMOEOPATH

If your acne is not improving with over-the-counter treatments or if you have more severe forms of acne, you will need to see your doctor. Your family doctor can assess your acne, determine if you are developing any scarring and prescribe treatments specific for your type of acne.

Medication can lead to significant improvements in how the skin looks and can reduce the number of new pimples.

Medical treatments are oral and as homoepaths say its better to treat internally than using external application.


In homoepathy its treated according to individual, cause, aggravating factor, nature of acne etc
permanent cure without any side effect or hormonal effects.

Where to get help


a well qualified govt. registered homoepath 


Things to remember


Acne is a medical problem that causes outbreaks of blackheads, pimples and cysts.
The triggers for acne include some of the hormones associated with puberty and the menstrual cycle.
Self-help strategies include cleansing the affected areas, using water-based make up and resisting the urge to squeeze or pick at spots.
see your homoeopath for early and better treatment.
