"These painful or itchy bumps are caused when shaving irritates the skin.

With Days Getting Shorter, Are You at Risk for Seasonal...
8 October 2022
SATURDAY, Oct. 8, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- When summer turns to fall, the shorter days can cause some people to feel the "winter blues." Now one expert offers information on how to cope with seasonal depression, which comes during the cold, dark months of the year.Also known as seasonal affective disorder (SAD), the condition can reflect a change in serotonin levels and be linked to depression."According to the Mental Health America National Organization, symptoms of seasonal depression can be similar to those that occur with depression," said Jeannie Larson, a professor at the University of Minnesota. "It can sometimes be difficult to discern SAD from other types of depression."A diagnosis of seasonal depression can only be made after two consecutive occurrences of depression that...
EPA Could Get Tough on Leaded Fuel in Airplanes
7 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 7, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has taken a major step to curb the largest remaining source of airborne lead pollution. The agency has proposed a so-called endangerment finding that aircraft that use leaded fuel cause or contribute to pollution that could harm public health and welfare.A majority of aircraft that use leaded fuel are smaller piston-engine aircraft that carry two to 10 passengers. Commercial jet aircraft don't use leaded fuel.The proposed endangerment finding is considered a first step in using EPA's authority under the Clean Air Act to address this source of lead pollution."When it comes to our children the science is clear, exposure to lead can cause irreversible and lifelong health effects," EPA Administrator...
America's Teen Athletes Are Bouncing Back After Pandemic...
7 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 7, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Before the pandemic, Theodore Kleinman, then a rising high school freshman, was excited to earn his spot on the varsity track team. Aside from staying in shape, he was also looking forward to making new friends and being part of a group.Unfortunately, COVID shutdowns derailed those plans. Now, as a junior, the New York City teen is finally back on track -- literally and figuratively. "I feel so much better now that I am running and participating in meets regularly," he said.Now, a new survey shows that Kleinman is not alone: Many teen athletes reported feeling depressed or anxious when sports were canceled during the early days of the pandemic, but many are feeling better physically and mentally now that they are playing sports again."We had...
Gun Injuries to Kids Rose During Pandemic
7 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 7, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Firearm sales in the United States broke records at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.Now, researchers have found that firearm injuries to children also increased during the pandemic's first two years compared to the preceding year.“We experienced an increase in pediatric firearm-related injuries in spite of a decrease in total pediatric emergency department visits during the COVID-19 pandemic," said senior author Dr. Irma Ugalde. She is director of pediatric emergency medicine research at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. “These findings parallel the increase in background checks and firearm sales across the nation following the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. A significant increase in firearm injuries occurred in African...
Fractured Skulls, Broken Bones: Bike Injuries Still Common for Kids
7 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 7, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Over 1 million U.S. children and teens — many of them male — have broken bones and fractured their skulls in bicycle injuries over the past 20 years, according to new research that brought together two decades of data.Boys aged 10 to 15 were particularly at risk. Nearly 87% of kids with skull fractures were not wearing helmets. More than 65,000 children were injured in biking accidents involving motor vehicles, according to the analysis, despite efforts to make biking on roadways safer.“The results of our study suggest that continued efforts teaching road safety and promoting helmet use should be targeted towards all children, but with additional efforts being directed towards the most affected population, namely 10- to 15-year-old...

7 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 7, 2022 (HealthDay News) – Travelers flying from Uganda will be funneled to one of five U.S. airports so they can be screened for Ebola amid an outbreak in that African country, federal officials announced Thursday.Passengers who have been in Uganda within the previous 21 days will fly to Kennedy Airport in New York; Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey; O'Hare International Airport in Chicago; Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport; and Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C., the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.No cases of Ebola have been reported outside Uganda at this time, but the Biden administration warned physicians to be watchful for any cases. The virus is highly contagious and often deadly, spreading...
Could Synthetic Turf Raise Kids' Odds for Injuries, Concussions?
7 October 2022
FRIDAY, Oct. 7, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- At some schools, grassy sports fields have been replaced by easier-to-maintain synthetic turf.But it turns out that may be more likely to cause player injuries.Noting that synthetic turf football fields have been associated with more ankle and knee injuries, medical student Ian Chun studied differences in impact force between natural grass and turf fields.He will present his findings Saturday at a meeting of the American Academy of Pediatrics, in Anaheim, Calif. "Injuries in sports have always been an accepted consequence of play and competition but in recent years the national discourse around sports safety has changed," said Chun, a third-year medical student at the University of Hawaii."Armed with injury prevention strategies and better...
