"There is no scientific evidence to support specific health benefits of perineum sunning. Exposing the perineum to direct sunlight can actually pose risks such as an increased chance of sunburn in a very sensitive areawhich may lead to discomfort and potential skin damage. For vitamin D synthesis and other potential benefits of sunlight exposing larger less sensitive areas of the body (like arms and legs) is safer and more effective. Regular moderate exposure to sunlight on these areas with proper sun protection to prevent skin damage is the recommended approach. #sunlight #sunning #vitamind"

"Night terrors happen during deep sleep usually in kids and are triggered by stress overtiredness or loud noises. Unlike nightmares they arent dreaming or awake and wont remember it. Most kids outgrow them by adolescence. To prevent them focus on consistent sleep routines and a calm bedtime. If they happen dont wake themjust keep them safe.

"A beating heart in a box 💓 This isnt sci-fi its real transplant technology. Instead of putting a donor heart on ice the heart in a box system keeps it warm oxygenated and actually pumping blood. That means: ✅ Longer preservation time (not just XX hours on ice) ✅ Organs can travel farther distances to reach recipients ✅ Doctors can assess function in real time before transplant ✅ More hearts become usable including those donated after circulatory death This innovation is giving more patients a second chance at life and expanding the donor pool in ways that werent possible before. #transplant"

This condition manifests in various ways including changes in skin coloring (caf-au-lait spots) learning challenges and skeletal abnormalities.

"Photic stimulation during an EEG test involves exposing the patient to a series of flashing lights at different frequencies to assess how their brain responds. This technique helps detect abnormal brain activity such as seizures or other neurological disorders by triggering electrical activity that may not be present at rest.

The flashing lights are typically presented with eyes closed and the patients brainwaves are recorded for analysis. #seizures #epilepsy #medical"

"Sour candies like Warheads can help interrupt a panic or anxiety attack The intense sourness can act as a sensory shock to the system pulling your focus away from racing thoughts or overwhelming feelings of anxiety. This sudden shift in focus activates the parasympathetic nervous system which can help calm you down. This works similarly to other grounding techniques. It can serve as a quick trick to break the cycle during an acute episode giving you enough pause to regain a sense of control. Ultimately any candy with a strong sour flavor can work but the stronger and more intense the sourness"
