Another cause of headaches
is sinus problems, which can
happen for some people at
certain times of year rather
than another. Between the
"sniffles"
and
"colds",
common in the winter,
trouble often brews with
folks with sinus issues. No
matter when these problems
persist, many people who get
sinus
infections
have
increased pressure in the head
due to the sinus and thus also
get headaches. The only way
to alleviate the headache is to
alleviate the sinus pressure.
Sinus Pressure must be fully
evaluated by a family doctor.
Common conditions that can
cause sinus pressure are
sinusitis, or sinus infections,
which can be serious. Commonly sinus congestion can
be treated with antibiotics for
serious cases or other methods such as saline rinse or
Millions of Americans
suffer from headaches, large
and small. Every day people
endure throbbing pains in
their head due to headaches,
many times without seemingly any good reason..There
are several different types of
headaches and each need to
be treated in different ways.
There are classic migraine
type headaches. Patients with
migraines typically report
seeing an aura, or light disturbance, they are usually bothered by light and must sit in
the dark for hours. They may
also have nausea and vomiting which will sometimes
actually alleviate the headache. These headaches have
varying causes and thus varying treatments.

leeway to invest in higher
yield investments, which
offer greater growth potential,
yet he chooses a more conservative path. Does this sound
like you? If so, your dislike of
risk may be hampering your

Veterinary medicine is a
rapidly changing field with
the advent of new technologies, pharmaceuticals and
surgical techniques. Here are
some items that are up-andcoming for 2016.
Fitbits for dogs: Okay, not
exactly a fitness tracker, but
an activity tracker that a dog
wears like a collar. While it
may seem like a novelty, the
practical application is being
able to follow the amount of
activity your pet is getting to
help judge if he is slowing
down. Arthritis or some other
medical issue may be going
on and should be investigated.
Joint supplements: Yes,
these have been around for a
while now, but new ingredients are making them even
more effective. With wide
safety margins and few drug
interactions, these can really
help our pets get around
better as they age. Because
this is still an unregulated
industry, it is important to be
using a quality product and
we can help with recommendations.
Allergy control: Many pets
get seasonal allergies manifested by itchiness. Corticosteroids such as prednisolone
have been the main-stay of
allergy management. Dogs
and cats do not respond to
antihistamines as well as
people and there has been
much research looking for
medications that can help.
We now have new oral and
injectable
allergy-control
products that are very safe
and effective and give us an
alternative to steroids.
Dietary therapy: In veterinary medicine, many disease
conditions are managed, at
least partially, with diet. New
therapeutic diets that address
stress, obesity and chronic
disease can add to our arsenal
of treatment options.
Vaccines: The pharmaceutical industry is constantly
researching how to improve
vaccines. We now have
recombinant technology that
reduces vaccine reactions.
This same technology is
being investigated for use in
treating certain cancers.
Pet insurance: This is not
new by any means, but is
becoming more mainstream.
Having the ability to afford
the necessary care for your
pet lets us provide the best
possible treatment without
cost being the deciding
factor. All the new innovations come with a price-tag,
but we want to be able to
offer the best for your pet.
Part of our job as veterinarians is staying abreast of all
of these advances and decid-
different
resources
and
programs available in our
community to address addiction, mental health, or isolation problems that you may
be having. There are people
to direct and guide you five
days a week at A Clean Slate.

local programs that can assist
you and computers that can
help you learn how to make
your new year's resolution
become a reality.

(NAPSI)Choosing
the
right mattress can be a very
stressful experience. With so
many choices, gimmicky
sales and often-times commissioned salespeople, the
decision can often be rushed
and without careful consideration. Before you decide, a
first step is to look at
whether memory foam or
innerspring is the right
choice for you, and it often
depends on the unique needs
of you and your family.
Which is right for you
depends on your needs.
Heres a look at a three key
considerations that can help.
1. Consider Construction:
An innerspring mattress is
engineered with tempered
steel coils and in premium
models the coils are
individually
wrapped.
Wrapped coils respond and
contour better to your body.
The innersprings firmness
and durability is determined
by the thickness of the coil as
well as its coil density or
number of coils. The higher
the coil count, the firmer the
mattress.
Most premium models have
two layers of coils and a
thick pillow top for added
comfort and support. A
premium
innerspring
mattress is traditionally what
you experience in a luxury
hotel. Memory foam, commonly referred to as viscoelastic foam, was developed in the early 1960s
about the time NASA
improved the safety of
aircraft cushions. Its main
purpose is to expertly
Q: Im sixteen and my
boyfriend
pushes
and
shoves me when he gets
upset. Will he grow out of
it? He says this just means
he loves me. Is this true?
A: Never accept mean,
disrespectful or violent treatment as a normal part of a
relationship or mistake it for
what it means in to be in a
healthy, caring relationship.
When someone regularly
mistreats you, it erodes your
self esteem and can lead to
other problems such as
depression or smoking.
One thing to remember is
that abusive behavior can
happen to anyone. Unfortunately, its common in your
age group. In fact, about two
in 10 female high school
students report being physically or sexually abused by a
dating partner.
If your boyfriend is pushing
and shoving you, he is
displaying abusive behavior
toward you, not affection and
caring. Physical abuse such
as pinching, slapping or
hitting often begins with
emotional or verbal abuse.
That may include teasing,
putdowns, jealously and
controlling behavior.
The first step is to recognize
that your boyfriends behavior is totally unacceptable
and an indication that he is
wrong for you. Now is the
time to get out of this
relationship. Dont be afraid
to reach out for help by
asking a guidance counselor
or trusted adult.
You also should also be
aware of what makes a
relationship unhealthy. Here
are some signs of an abusive
relationship, according to the
Office on Womens Health:
Constantly texting or sending instant messages to
monitor you.
Insisting in getting serious
very quickly.
Acting very jealous or
bossy.
Pressuring you to do
sexual things.
Posting sexual photos of
you online without permission.
Threatening to hurt you or
them if you break up.
Blaming you for the abuse.
When people mistreat
others, it is often because
they themselves have been
on the receiving end of this
type of behavior. So they are
just imitating the abusive
behavior of family members.
Since they never learned
healthy coping skills for
dealing with lifes ups and
downs, they simply act out
