What is Head and Lateral Line Erosion (hole-in-head disease)?

Home Aquarium Disease FAQ - WikiFAQ - Answers to Frequently ...
This disease can affect discus, other cichlids, and many saltwater fish. The fish develops holes in it's head and sometimes along its lateral line. Causes are unclear but as in any disease, stress and poor water quality likely play a role. The Manual of Fish Health states that HLLE is probably due to nutritional deficiency, especially of vitamin C. Fish in planted tanks rarely get HLLE, which supports the nutrition idea, since fish can nibble on the plants and obtain extra nutrition.

Tanac Canker Sore Relief - How Well Does it Work?
For weeks you have been aching from head to foot. You have no energy, you can't concentrate and you can't remember the last time you got a good night's sleep. You have been to the doctor a few times already and all he can tell you is what you DON'T have. Your skin does many things including protecting you from the environment, regulating your body temperature, helping with fluid and electrolyte balance, and providing receptors for sensations such as touch, pain, and pressure.

What about lateral (side) impacts?

Isaac - FAQ
Standard lateral impact tests have not yet been developed for racing, but they are in the works. Computer simulations indicate that Isaac® will reduce head loads caused by lateral impacts by 50%. This makes sense. Isaac® should offer some lateral support because one shock will be in tension and the other in compression. Tether-based "head restraints" only work in tension — you can't push on a rope.

What is a Band erosion?

LapBand FAQ
This is when the Band actually erodes into the stomach. It is a more serious problem, and generally requires removal of the Band. Band erosion is thought to be related to placing too many sutures (or too tight sutures) at the time of Band implantation. Surprisingly, Band erosion is often unnoticed. Occasionally the port will become infected if bacteria track along the catheter out to the port. Other times patients will stop losing weight. Diagnosis often requires an endoscopy.

How much can I move my head?

Isaac - FAQ
Anytime you connect something to your helmet you will lose some mobility. Mobility with Isaac® occurs in two stages. The first is the natural movement of the mechanical connections and the rollers on the belt. This is adequate for most racing — checking mirrors and flag stations — and is equal to, or better than, what you would get with other products that are tightened enough to perform as well as Isaac®.

What sort of sight line is best on a mallet head?

Frequently Asked Questions
I have tried various forms of sight lines, from none through arrow heads, tram lines to thick ones. I trialled them using strips of white insulating tape cut with a rule and razor blade on a mirror. None' can be effective because it causes you to be critical about mating up the mallet face perpendicular to the ball. I prefer a single narrow, high contrast stripe.

Lilburn Dental Group, LLC
Erosion is a chemical process where acids in the mouth will dissolve the enamel surface. This acid can come from the stomach, from sucking on citrus fruits such as lemons, or from carbonated beverages. Damage from stomach acid will tend to erode the back side (lingual) of the teeth. Lemon sucking will dissolve the edges of the front teeth. And carbonated beverages tend to erode at the neck of the teeth (cervical) at the level of the gums.

Is there any permanent solution for beach erosion?

FAQ
There is a "soft shore" technique that has been used in both Florida and Michigan with great success. Within months of being installed the beaches had increased in size and there was no apparent negative impact to adjoining beaches. Some of these projects are 30+ years old. None of them have had to have any ongoing maintenance. Because the soft shore technology uses the natural water flow and wave movement to build beaches, the beach is naturally maintained.

What are Head Lice?

NIX LICE TREATMENT

They live approximately 40-50 days and go through three stages in their life cycle: eggs, nymphs and adults. They are about the size of sesame seeds, brownish in color, and can be detected by carefully inspecting the scalp with a magnifying glass and plenty of light. You should know that head lice are treatable, very rarely cause serious health problems, and don't warrant great concern.

FAQ about NITMIX treatment and removing headlice naturally
Visual inspection is a very poor way to check for head lice. In a study from Israel diagnosis of louse infestation using a louse comb was found to be four times more efficient than direct visual examination and twice as fast. The direct visual examination technique underestimates active infestation and detects past, non-active infestations.

Their bodies range in appearance from translucent and/or nearly colorless to almost totally black. The juvenile louse ranges from a little larger than a period at the end of a sentence to close to adult size, depending on the developmental stage. Adult lice lay eggs that they attach to hairs with a glue-like substance close to the scalp.
