Candida Albicans:

Candida albicans is a species of yeast — a single-celled fungus — that's a normal part of the microbes that live in your gastrointestinal tract.
Small amounts of the yeast also live in various warm, moist areas throughout the body, including the mouth, rectum, vagina, and parts of your skin.
Its numbers are naturally kept in check by the bacteria and other microorganisms that make up your microbiome, the community of microorganisms that inhabit your body.
However, different factors can throw off your microbial balance, tipping the scales in favor of C. albicans and allowing the fungus to grow out of control and cause a yeast infection called candidiasis.

Signs of Candida Albicans Overgrowth

The symptoms of Candida overgrowth vary depending on the location and severity of the infection. An intestinal Candida infection is often associated with Candida infections elsewhere on the body. Symptoms can include:
  • Fungal infections of the skin and nails, such as athlete’s foot, ringworm, and toenail fungus
  • Constantly feeling low in energy or fatigued
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Digestive issues such as bloating, constipation, or diarrhea
  • Autoimmune disease such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, lupus, psoriasis, scleroderma, or multiple sclerosis
  • Poor memory or concentration, inability to focus
  • Behavioral issues such as ADD, ADHD, and/or brain fog
  • Skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, hives, and rashes

Kawasaki Disease

Image
Kawasaki Disease Kawasaki disease is an illness that almost always affects kids, most of them under the age of 5. It’s one of the leading causes of heart disease in children. Causes When a child has Kawasaki disease, the blood vessels throughout his body become inflamed. This can damage the coronary arteries, the vessels that carry  blood  to his heart. But Kawasaki disease doesn’t affect just the heart. It can also cause problems with lymph nodes, skin, and lining of the  mouth , nose and throat. Scientists haven’t found an exact cause for Kawasaki disease . But they think it’s probably linked to a combination of genetics, exposure to viruses and bacteria, and other environment factors, such as chemicals and irritants. Symptoms One of the most important things to know about Kawasaki disease is that it comes on fast and symptoms show up in phases. It can lead to heart trouble in as little as 10 days to 2 weeks after the symptoms start. Signs of Kawasaki disease

A sunken fontanel occurs when the soft spot on a baby's skull becomes more deep set than usual. One of the major causes is dehydration

The human skull is made up from several bones that are connected by tough fibrous tissue called sutures. These sutures give the skull some flexibility, allowing the head to pass through the birth canal. Where several sutures meet, they create a fontanel. Fontanels make the skull flexible enough for the brain to grow. When a child is born, it will have several fontanels on the skull, but the ones on the back (posterior) and top (anterior) of its head are the most well-known. For many babies, only the larger anterior fontanel is open after birth. People refer to this fontanel as the soft spot. Sometimes, the smaller posterior fontanel is also open and may be felt at birth but soon closes. Over time, this flexibility becomes less necessary, so the fontanels close up, and sutures harden. The anterior fontanel should curve slightly inwards but remain relatively firm. It is not always visible, particularly under hair. In some cases, the dip may be very pronounced and noticeable.

Respiratory syncytial virus

Respiratory syncytial  virus (RSV), which causes infection of the lungs and breathing passages, is a major cause of respiratory illness in young children. RSV is highly contagious, and spreads through droplets containing the virus when someone coughs or sneezes. It also can live on surfaces (such as counter tops or doorknobs) and on hands and clothing, so it can easily spread when a person touches something contaminated. Those at greatest risk for severe illness from RSV include Premature infants Very young infants, especially those 6 months and younger Children younger than 2 years old with chronic lung disease Children younger than 2 years old with chronic heart disease Children with weakened immune systems Children who have neuromuscular disorders, including those who have difficulty swallowing or clearing mucus secretions  RSV season occurs each year in most regions of the U.S. during fall, winter, and spring. If you have contact with an infant or young chil
