  • Skin Care, Insect Bites and Stings
    DEPARTMENT KLINISCHE WETENSCHAPPEN | MEDISCHE DIENSTEN Kronenburgstraat 43/3, 2000 Antwerpen | Fax: +32 3 247 64 10 Updated version (20/05/2015 – AVG) see: www.travelhealth.be SKIN CARE, INSECT BITES AND STINGS Sun The closer you get to the Equator, the more intense sunlight becomes. Sunbathing in the tropics has to be done in moderation. Protective clothing and hats are recommended. Apply sun cream with high sun protection factor (30 or more) to exposed skin regularly (every two hours) and carefully. Apply sun cream after bathing and avoid long water exposure since sun stroke will be imminent in spite of reduced heat feeling. Avoid perfumed sun creams and check whether or not used creams or medication can cause "sun allergy" (photo-toxic or photo-allergic reactions). We would like to refer to point 5 of the European cancer code: avoid excessive exposure to sun and sunburn during childhood (increased risk of melanomas in later life). Do not take a course of sunbed sessions before going on holiday as the sun tan obtained through UV-A does not give any extra protection against the natural UV-rays. When using sun creams and insect repellents based on DEET, recent studies have shown that DEET reduces the effectiveness of the sun cream, but that sun creams do not have a negative influence on the effectiveness of DEET. It is advisable, therefore, to apply the insect repellent (DEET or another repellent) with the sun lotion and then to take additional precautions to protect against UV (e.g. a sun cream with a higher protection factor).

  • Allergic Reactions to Bites and Stings
    Allergic Reactions to Bites and Stings ASCIA EDUCATION RESOURCES (AER) PATIENT INFORMATION Most insect bites and stings result in a localised itch and swelling that settles within a few days. Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) to insects are relatively uncommon, and are usually due to bees, wasps or the Australian Jack Jumper ant. Fortunately, effective treatments are available to treat allergic reactions to bites and stings. Stinging insects are a common cause of anaphylaxis Allergies to venoms from stinging insects are one of the most common causes of severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) in Australia. Symptoms include an all over rash, swelling of tongue or throat, trouble breathing, gut cramps, diarrhoea, vomiting or even a drop in blood pressure (shock). Although the insects are all hymenoptera (which means membranous winged insects), their venoms are very different. Allergy to one type of stinging insect does not usually increase the risk of reaction to another. The Honey Bee is the most common cause of allergic reactions in Australia. Paper Wasps and European Wasps can sting multiple times. The European Wasp is becoming an increasing problem in Australia, is particularly aggressive and likes to get inside drink cans at barbeques, although the more familiar Paper Wasp is responsible for the majority of serious stings. The Australian Jack Jumper Ant (Myrmecia pilosula) is a medium sized black bull ant prevalent down the eastern side of Australia and Tasmania. It can be recognised by its characteristic hopping motion when it walks. It is a very aggressive ant and its sting can cause severe local pain. Severe allergic reactions are much more common than is seen with more common bull ants.

  • Avoiding and Treating Work-Related Insect Bites and Stings
    FACT SHEET Avoiding and Treating Work-Related Insect Bites and Stings This WorkCare Fact Sheet describes work-related bite and sting risks, symptoms, treatment and preventive measures. Bites and stings are a relatively common occurrence for people who work outdoors and in enclosed environments where bees and wasps, fire ants, insects and arachnids (spiders, scorpions, ticks and mites) feel at home. Employers and workers are encouraged to understand exposure risks, how to recognize and respond to stings and bites, and what they can do to prevent them. Under 29 CFR Part 1904 – Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) considers bites and stings to be recordable when an employee who is bitten or stung while working receives medical treatment beyond first aid. First aid is defined in1904.7 (b)(5)(ii). Exposure Risk Thousands of people in the U.S. are stung or bitten each year. Exposed arms and hands tend to be more susceptible to stings and bites among workers than legs and feet, which are usually protected by clothing and enclosed shoes. In a study of occupationally related bites and stings, the head, one of the most exposed body parts, accounted for one-tenth of cases involving insects and arachnids; a third of those cases affected the eyes. An estimated 90 to 100 people die each year in the U.S. as a result of allergic reactions to bites and stings. Overall, bite- and sting-related injuries and fatalities may be misdiagnosed as heart attack or sunstroke, or attributed to other causes, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).

Nowadays, however, they can occur in urban areas also. Lakhs of people every year are bitten or stung by someone or something. These emergencies include bites and stings due to various reasons. These bites or stings need to be identified and treated early as they affect some part or the whole of the body which can cause mild, moderate or severe reaction and can even be life-threatening. Most are not medical emergencies but however, treatment is usually required if there is bleeding, wounds or infection. All bites and stings are not same. Different First Aid treatment and care is needed depending on the type of insect or animal that has caused the bite. Some species are more dangerous and cause more harm compared to others. Hence, in this unit we shall discuss the different types of bites and stings, causes, recognition and first aid in these situations.

  • Transcriptional Inhibition of Hypertrophic Scars by a Gene
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE Transcriptional Inhibition of Hypertrophic Scars by a Gene Silencer, Pyrrole–Imidazole Polyamide, Targeting the TGF-b1 Promoter Hisayo Washio1, Noboru Fukuda2, Hiroyuki Matsuda2, Hiroki Nagase3, Takayoshi Watanabe3, Yoshiaki Matsumoto4 and Tadashi Terui1 Synthetic pyrrole–imidazole (PI) polyamides bind to the minor groove of double-helical DNA with high affinity and specificity, and inhibit the transcription of corresponding genes. We examined the effects of a transforming growth factor (TGF)-b1-targeted PI polyamide (Polyamide) on hypertrophic skin scars in rats. Hypertrophic scars were created dorsally in rats by incisions. FITC-labeled Polyamide was injected to investigate its distribution in the skin. Expression of TGF-b1, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), collagen type1, and fibronectin mRNAs was evaluated by reverse transcription PCR analysis. The extent of fibrosis and the expression of TGF-b1 were evaluated histologically and immunohistochemically. Polyamide was distributed in almost all nuclei of skin cells. Expression of TGF-b1 mRNA reached a peak at 3 days after skin incision. Expression of CTGF and extracellular matrix mRNAs was increased continuously even after the peak induction of TGF-b1 mRNA. Injection of Polyamide completely inhibited both the development of scars and the induction of growth factors and extracellular matrix mRNAs. The treatment also markedly inhibited fibrotic changes and reduced the numbers of vimentin-positive spindle-shaped fibroblasts. Injection of Polyamide also reduced established

  • Notes to General Risk Assessment Form RA1
    Produced by the Health and Safety Department, the University of Edinburgh Health Risks from Working Outdoors: There are several health hazards which may affect people who work outdoors. Some of the main hazards which people may be exposed to include: Exposure to UV radiation from the sun: UV radiation from the sun causes damage to skin. The main effects include sunburn, blistering, skin ageing, an in the long term may lead to skin cancer. Skin cancer is the most common from of cancer in the UK, with over 40,000 new cases diagnosed each year. There are three main types of skin cancer: 1. Basal cell carcinoma (rodent ulcer) This type of cancer is usually found in people over 60. It is often linked with years of working outdoors, outdoor sports, or life in the tropics. The most likely sites are on the face and hair bearing skin. Appearance may vary, but there is often a nodule which slowly grows to 0.5cm over a couple of years. It may look translucent or pigmented, and may develop a raised pearly border with a non-healing ulcer in the centre. This type of cancer does not usually spread to form secondary cancers, however early treatment is vital to prevent extensive tissue damage around the site of the cancer. 2. Squamous cell carcinoma This type of skin cancer mainly occurs in older people usually following long exposure to UV radiation as in outdoor work. Appearance is usually of a warty lump, nodule, ulcer, or sore which does not heal. Squamous cell carcinomas also have a very high cure rate, but early treatment is vital in order to prevent tissue damage.

  • External Use of Mother Tinctures
    EXTERNAL USE OF MOTHER TINCTURES AESCULUS AND HAMAMELIS Piles A combination of these two herbs in an ointment or cream provides relief from painful piles, but you should seek professional help so that they can be treated ‘from the inside’ to prevent their recurrence (see page 222). ARNICA Never apply Arnica externally to open wounds, cuts or grazes — that is, to broken skin — as it can cause a nasty rash. Bed sores Use for the first stage of pressure sores caused by a long confinement in bed. Bruises Apply the ointment, cream or lotion directly to the affected part (remembering to use it only on unbroken skin) as soon as possible. If you can do this before the bruise has started to discolour (even if it has already swollen), it will simply be re-absorbed by the body, especially if you take Arnica internally as well. Rub ointment or cream in gently, or if you are using lotion apply it on a piece of lint or gauze and keep in place until the swelling has subsided — usually a matter of several hours. Corns Apply the ointment two or three times a day for relief. Sore muscles Rub Arnica ointment or oil into sore, bruised muscles after exertion (such as gardening or skiing) and take the appropriate internal remedy if your symptoms are severe. Sprains/strains (first stage) Rub in Arnica ointment or cream, or wrap the sprained joint in a lotion-soaked bandage. This will deal with the initial swelling. Wasp stings Dab the wound with neat tincture immediately after being stung.
