Here&#8217;s what you can do about it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most people associate&nbsp;<strong>high cholesterol<\/strong>&nbsp;with an unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, or aging \u2014 something that builds up slowly over time. But for some, elevated cholesterol isn\u2019t the result of lifestyle at all. Instead, it\u2019s inherited through a genetic condition known as&nbsp;<strong>familial hypercholesterolemia (FH)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83e\uddec What Is Familial Hypercholesterolemia?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FH is caused by a genetic mutation that leads to&nbsp;<strong>lifelong high LDL (\u201cbad\u201d) cholesterol levels<\/strong>, regardless of diet or activity. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about&nbsp;<strong>1 in 250 people<\/strong>&nbsp;has FH. Yet experts estimate that&nbsp;<strong>70\u201390 percent remain undiagnosed<\/strong>, leaving them at risk for serious heart problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without proper management, FH greatly increases the risk of&nbsp;<strong>early heart attacks and strokes<\/strong>. Detecting it early can be lifesaving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83e\ude7a Why Cholesterol Matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cholesterol itself isn\u2019t harmful \u2014 in fact, it\u2019s essential. Every cell in the body needs cholesterol to build membranes and produce hormones. But problems arise when&nbsp;<strong>LDL cholesterol<\/strong>&nbsp;builds up in the artery walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Excess LDL particles trigger inflammation, much like a splinter under the skin. Over time, this can damage artery linings and cause dangerous blood clots \u2014 the underlying process behind most&nbsp;<strong>heart attacks and strokes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u26a0\ufe0f Signs and Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most people with high cholesterol feel no symptoms until serious complications occur. FH is especially insidious because cholesterol levels are high from birth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In rare cases, very high cholesterol may cause:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fatty deposits in tendons (xanthomas)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yellowish patches on the skin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A white ring around the cornea of the eye<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But for most, routine&nbsp;<strong>blood tests<\/strong>&nbsp;are the only way to detect it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udd0e Who Should Be Tested?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Children:<\/strong>\u00a0Pediatric guidelines recommend cholesterol screening between ages\u00a0<strong>9\u201311<\/strong>\u00a0if a parent has FH. Some children may be tested earlier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Adults:<\/strong>\u00a0There\u2019s no age \u201ctoo early\u201d for testing. Anyone with a family history of\u00a0<strong>heart disease, stroke, or high cholesterol<\/strong>\u00a0should ask for screening.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s also important to test for&nbsp;<strong>lipoprotein(a)<\/strong>, another inherited cholesterol particle often elevated in people with FH, which further increases cardiovascular risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83e\udd57 Living With Inherited High Cholesterol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lifestyle changes alone won\u2019t normalize cholesterol in FH \u2014 but they still matter. According to cardiologists, healthy habits can&nbsp;<strong>cut cardiac risk by up to 80 percent<\/strong>, even when LDL remains high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Recommendations include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Eating fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and nuts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Limiting added sugars, sodium, red meat, and processed foods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Exercising at least\u00a0<strong>150 minutes of moderate activity per week<\/strong>\u00a0(walking, cycling, swimming)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoiding smoking entirely<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most people with FH will also need&nbsp;<strong>cholesterol-lowering medications<\/strong>, such as statins or newer therapies, to reduce LDL and protect the heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2705 A Winnable Battle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia may sound daunting, but experts emphasize that it\u2019s&nbsp;<strong>treatable and manageable<\/strong>. With the right combination of medical care, lifestyle adjustments, and early detection, people with FH can live long, healthy lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As cardiologist Dr. Ashish Sarraju explains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn most cases, I consider high

HFMD Cases Spike Among Young Children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DOH data showed that as of&nbsp;<strong>August 9<\/strong>, there have been&nbsp;<strong>37,368 HFMD cases<\/strong>&nbsp;across the country since January \u2014 far higher than the&nbsp;<strong>5,081 cases<\/strong>&nbsp;recorded during the same period in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Health officials noted that&nbsp;<strong>most of the patients are children aged one to three years old<\/strong>, consistent with the disease\u2019s prevalence among children under five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While HFMD is generally mild and self-limiting, the DOH warned that complications such as&nbsp;<strong>meningitis, encephalitis, and polio-like paralysis<\/strong>&nbsp;can occur if left untreated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83e\udda0 Transmission and Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HFMD spreads easily through&nbsp;<strong>direct contact<\/strong>&nbsp;with infected individuals, as well as through droplets and contaminated objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Common symptoms include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fever lasting one to two days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Painful mouth sores<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rashes and blisters on the hands, feet, and buttocks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Patients are advised to undergo&nbsp;<strong>isolation for seven to 10 days<\/strong>&nbsp;until fever subsides and rashes disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DOH emphasized the importance of strict hygiene practices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Utensils and personal items used by the patient must be kept separate and disinfected.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The isolation room must be thoroughly cleaned once the patient recovers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Health Secretary&nbsp;<strong>Ted Herbosa<\/strong>&nbsp;underscored the need to teach children&nbsp;<strong>proper handwashing techniques<\/strong>, especially if they have been exposed to HFMD cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udca1 Preventive Measures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To reduce the spread of HFMD, health experts recommend:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Frequent handwashing with soap and water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Regular disinfection of frequently touched surfaces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wearing protective gear (masks, gloves,

leptospirosis cases \u2014 which surged following recent tropical storms \u2014 are now on a downward trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only&nbsp;<strong>18 cases<\/strong>&nbsp;were reported nationwide from&nbsp;<strong>August 17 to 21<\/strong>, a significant drop from the&nbsp;<strong>1,112 cases<\/strong>&nbsp;recorded in the week following storms&nbsp;<strong>Crising, Dante, and Emong<\/strong>&nbsp;earlier this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the rainy season officially began on&nbsp;<strong>June 8<\/strong>, the country has reported&nbsp;<strong>4,436 leptospirosis cases<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">State-run hospitals have noted declining admissions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul

established&nbsp;<strong>fast lanes in hospitals<\/strong>&nbsp;specifically for leptospirosis patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2705 Outlook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DOH continues to monitor both HFMD and leptospirosis closely, urging the public to remain vigilant. While HFMD cases climb at an alarming rate, the recent decline in leptospirosis offers a reminder that&nbsp;<strong>strict prevention and early intervention<\/strong>&nbsp;are key to controlling infectious disease outbreaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BE CAREFUL, if you get these bruises on your body, it means you have\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you ever noticed that you bruise easily? Those black-and-blue marks that eventually turn yellow may not only look unsightly, but sometimes they\u2019re painful and even a sign of something more serious. While bruises often result from harmless bumps or injuries, in some cases they can indicate an underlying medical issue.<br><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newsent24hcom.8cache.com\/newsent24hcom\/images\/2025\/09\/01\/17567443621AzFinLMQo.webp\" width=\"444\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This article explains what bruises are, why they form, possible causes\u2014including vitamin deficiencies\u2014and when you should consult a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is a Bruise?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The medical term for a bruise is&nbsp;<strong>ecchymosis<\/strong>. It happens when small blood vessels break under the skin, causing blood to pool beneath the surface. Unlike a cut where blood escapes outside the body, bruises trap blood internally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Common causes include bumping into furniture, minor falls, or even having blood drawn. The bruise appears dark red, purple, blue, or black at first, then changes colors\u2014green, yellow, or brown\u2014as your body reabsorbs the blood during healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When to Be Concerned<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bruises on arms and legs are usually harmless. However, you should see a doctor if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bruises appear on your abdomen, back, genitals, ears, or hands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They occur frequently without clear cause.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They do not begin to fade within a few days.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They last longer than two weeks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vitamin Deficiencies Linked to Bruising<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Certain vitamin shortages can make you bruise more easily:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Vitamin C deficiency<\/strong>: Vitamin C is essential for producing collagen, which strengthens blood vessels. Without enough, vessels become fragile and bruise easily. Smokers are particularly at risk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vitamin K deficiency<\/strong>: Vitamin K is crucial for blood clotting and capillary strength. Low levels may slow clotting and increase bruising.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vitamin D and B vitamins<\/strong>: Low levels can also contribute to increased susceptibility to bruising.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Causes of Bruising<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dietary supplements<\/strong>: Ginkgo, ginseng, garlic, ginger, omega-3s, saw palmetto, and vitamin E can thin the blood and make bruising more likely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Medications<\/strong>: Blood thinners, aspirin, ibuprofen, steroids, certain antibiotics, and antidepressants may all increase bruising risk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Aging<\/strong>: Thinner skin and weaker blood vessels make older adults more prone to bruises.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sun damage<\/strong>: Years of sun exposure can weaken blood vessels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Medical conditions<\/strong>: Diabetes, anemia, hemophilia, leukemia, and lymphoma can all affect clotting or vessel strength.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sports injuries<\/strong>: Contact sports often cause contusions\u2014another name for bruises\u2014from direct impacts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Treatment and Prevention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most bruises heal on their own, but you can speed recovery and reduce discomfort with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>RICE method<\/strong>: Rest, ice, compression, and elevation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Heat<\/strong>: After a few days, apply a warm compress to promote healing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pain relief<\/strong>: Use acetaminophen, but avoid aspirin or ibuprofen if bruising is the concern.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fall prevention<\/strong>: Improve home lighting, clear floor clutter, and secure cords or rugs to reduce risk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skin care<\/strong>: Protect fragile skin with ointments or bandages to prevent infection if the skin breaks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you suspect your bruises are linked to supplements or medications, get your vitamin levels tested and talk with your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most bruises are harmless reminders of everyday bumps. But persistent, severe, or unexplained bruising should not be ignored. They may be your body\u2019s way of signaling a deficiency or an underlying medical condition.
