Dear Doctor, I jammed my finger playing basketball and it hurts to bend it. What should I do?

Dear Reader, A “jammed” finger can signal one of three scenarios. One of the joints was either: sprained, dislocated/relocated, or fractured. If your finger looks deformed, ice it gently, seek medical attention, and get an x-ray immediately. If one of the finger joints is swollen and slightly purple in color, you can try “buddy taping” the finger to the next closest finger for protection and see how it does for a few days. Again, if pain and swelling are prominent, have it examined by a sports medicine professional.

Dear Doctor, I’ve seen a foam roller at my health club and recently my sports doctor recommended it to me for my back. Is it helpful?

Dear Reader, In my experience, a foam roller is the “best thing since sliced bread.” A foam roller is a solid cylindrical tube that is either 2 or 4 feet in length and approximately 6 inches in diameter. This device is well recognized in the PT/sports medicine world as providing my- ofascial stretching to improve circulation and healing. When used properly, it provides an excellent stretch to muscles and feels incredi- bly good. It only takes a minute to use and you can use the roller to increase flexibility, decrease muscle soreness and promote healing. Seeing a physical therapist would be a great way to learn how to use one, but you can also find numerous foam roller stretches and tech- niques via YouTube. Most sporting goods stores sell them as well as retail outlets.

Arbor Day in Union City

SUBMITTED BY NELSON KIRK

On April 30, 2016, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints did creek clean up, mulch spreading and milkweed planting at William Cann Civic Center Park. Volunteers from the church pulled out about 200 pounds of litter from the creek. The work will help the water quality of the creek and the plantings will help support the butterfly population. At Casa Verde Park volunteers planted 71 Blue Atlas Cedars and mulched around all the trees. They also installed a sit up bench in the fitness course area. This work will help complement our new basketball court at the park.

SUBMITTED BY LOTUS HALBOWER

About two years ago, after having significant problems learning how to read, write and spell, a six year old girl, named Makayla Hal- bower, of Union City, was diagnosed with dyslexia. At first, she was scared and sad. She felt left out academically and socially. Having dyslexia made her feel different and less equal to the other students in her class. With tutoring, parental and other supports, Makayla feels very dif- ferently now! She is confident and empowered. Mikayla has just writ- ten a children’s book about her journey and wants other students who are diagnosed with dyslexia or other learning differences to feel better about themselves. The book, called, “Dyslexia Rules!” is available through Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com/dp/151516442X Now, eight years old and in the 4th grade, Makayla has discovered the truth about her talents and strengths. Dyslexia comes with power, if you choose to embrace it. Read her story. Learn her truth. End the stigma that surrounds dyslexia when that label gets placed on a child.

A solar-powered charging station for electric cars, a smartwatch app for pedestrian safety and prosthetic devices for veterans were among the winning projects of this year’s Samsung Solve for Tomorrow con- test. Students from the public schools named national winners earlier in April were honored at an annual awards luncheon attended by con- gressional leaders in Washington, D.C. Among the national winners were students from Mission Valley ROP/James Logan High School, who were recognized for using STEM skills to design and construct a fully functional, solar- powered charging station. While in Washington, D.C., the winners also had the opportunity to meet with their respective congressional representatives and present their projects. “We are so happy to give the students this opportunity to show their congressional representatives what they have been work- ing on,” said Ann Woo, senior director of Corporate Citizenship at Samsung Electronics America. “Their projects, while addressing local Scan for our FREE App or issues, could have an impact on communities across the country.

Young environmentalists raise public awareness

SUBMITTED BY PEYA IN THE PARK

Since 1971, the President of the United States has worked with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to recognize K-12 students who promote environmental awareness through the President’s Environmental Youth Award (PEYA). The large variety of winning PEYA projects produced by young students over the years covers such areas as: restoring native habitats, recycling in schools and com- munities, construction of nature preserves, tree planting, and installing renewable energy projects. On January 23, several sophomores and juniors from Mission San Jose High School, Fremont, were seen at Lake Elizabeth presenting their submitted projects at “PEYA in the Park,” with a view to raise public awareness to specific environmental issues. This was achieved through engaging the community with hands-on interactive experience. Among the topics covered were: water conservation, hand- recycling paper, reducing meat consumption, and endan- germent of honeybee population. Participation in the PEYA program is believed to be a life- changing experience for many of our young people. They in turn help to inspire members of the public to become ready stewards of our natural environment. Page 18 WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE May 17, 2016
