Health

Human body consists from head, face, nose, mouth, ears, eyes, neck, back, hands, legs, foots. To human body belong internal organs too, for example brain, heart, liver, lungs, stomach.Many of us have had several of the common childhood diseases, such as measles and chickenpox. Several times we've also had flu and cold. I am an active person, so having to stay in bed is boring for me. I dislike the dentist's office very much, because I hate the drilling of my teeth.

Everybody in our country has the right to choose a doctor and many people go to one family doctor. In the present two types of health facilities operate in this country: state and private ones.


Soon after birth each child is vaccinated against such illnesses as tuberculosis, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, polio and later smallpox. When we grow out of our children's diseases such as a cold, otitis, measles, mumps, rubeola or chickenpox we do not have to go to the doctor so often. If we still feel ill, we finally decide to see a doctor who is called a General Practitioner. Then the nurse says: "Next please" and invites us into the consulting room. The nurse has to look for our medical record and wants to see our insurance card. The doctor usually asks what the trouble is. The doctor wants to know if we have a temperature, a good appetite and where we feel pain. Then the doctor listens to our lungs and heart. The doctor also wants us to open our mouth and say: "Ah" to see if our tonsils are red. Finally the doctor diagnoses the case and therapy and prescribes a medicine. Most often we suffer from a common infection such as flu or bronchitis. At the pharmacy we get antibiotics vitamins, pain relivers and gargle. We can also try some medicinal herbs to prepare herbal tee too.


In more serious cases of if we get injured we can call the doctor to our home. Sometimes we may be taken to hospital by an ambulance. Serious cases are immediately operated in the operating room. After the operation a scar often remains.However, there are fatal illnesses like cancer of AIDS which are incurable so far.We can improve our heath by physical training, hardening our body through sport, sufficient sleep, wholesome food and avoiding alcohol, cigarettes and stress.
