Depending on its location and size, a Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm is quite a serious disease. It can cause excessive internal bleeding that can be life-threatening. Surgery or other less invasive techniques are used to treat this disease.
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) is not a life-threatening disease, but if it is left untreated, it can surely cause certain chronic complications.
Thoracic outlet syndrome is not a single disease but a group of disorders that happen when nerves or blood vessels in the area between collarbone and the first rib (thoracic outlet) are compressed. Repetitive injuries, physical trauma, and anatomical disorders can cause this disease to develop.
There are numerous types, including:
Thrombocytopenia is a condition wherein your blood platelet count is lower than normal . Thrombocytopenia may occur due to a bone marrow disorder like leukemia or an immune system condition or a side effect of some medicine.
Thumb arthritis is an age-related problem. It occurs when the cartilage wears off from the base bones of the thumb that form the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint.
Thyroid is the gland located at the base of the neck. Thyroid nodules are an unusual growth or lump in the thyroid gland. These are fluid-filled or solid, and most of them are not severe or cause serious symptoms. Only a small percentage of these nodules turn cancerous and should be treated immediately.
Introduction
Tinea Versicolor, also called ‘Pityriasis versicolor’, is a type of fungal infection. It results from the overgrowth of a kind of fungus that lives on your body. The infection commonly appears as white, pink, tan, or brown patches on the body. Sometimes, these individual patches may join together and form bigger patches.
Just when it seems that the COVID-19 scenario is settling down, and we may get some respite from irritating viruses, another viral disease, “Tomato Flu”, has crept its way into Kerala!
Tomato flu, also known as tomato fever, is a viral disease which causes blisters that resemble tomatoes. Tomato Flu largely affects children below five years of age, who experience undiagnosed fever.
Tongue cancer is a type of head and neck cancer that begins in the tongue. Most cases start in the front two‑thirds of the tongue (oral tongue), which is part of the oral cavity. Less commonly, cancers start at the base of the tongue (part of the oropharynx). The majority are squamous cell carcinomas that arise from the thin mucosal lining. In India and South Asia, oral tongue cancers linked to tobacco and betel quid are more common, while in Western countries, base-of-tongue cancers related to HPV are increasingly seen.
The tongue is a muscular organ that helps us speak and also swallow the food. With tongue-tie, an remarkably short, tight or thick band of tissue ties the bottom of the tip of your tongue to the floor of the mouth. Tongue-tie may also affect the way a child speaks, eats and swallows.
It can affect speech and food intake as babies grow.
