Penis Warm Up & Warm Down Exercises | Penis Enlargement

Penis enlargement exercises are considered to be great - if not the best - options to enlarge a man's penis in today's day and age. However, in order for these penis enlargement exercises to actually succeed, it would be absolutely essential for you to Warm up your penis beforehand and Warm down afterward.

The same way that you would warm up and warm down before running for a few miles or doing heavy deadlifts; that is how you must warm-up and warm down your penis before and after doing any sort of exercise routine with it. Here are a few instructions on how to ensure a successful warm-up and warm-down with your precious manhood in order to get the best results and the most gains in the long run.

How to Warm Up and Warm Down Naturally - Penis Enlargement Exercises

To warm up your manhood before doing your penis enlargement exercises, grab a soft and absorbent washcloth and soak it in hot water. Then, take the washcloth and squeeze out any excess and dripping liquid from it, if any, and touch it close to your penis to test whether you can take the heat emanating from it or not. If you can, you should then massage your manhood until it becomes semi-erect.

Once you have a semi-erection as needed, wrap the washcloth around your entire penis, including its head and hold it there for around 5 minutes. This will ensure that your manhood absorbs the necessary heat to relax all of the tissues inside of it. Once the 5 minutes are up, you can remove the washcloth and use a new, soft and dry to completely dry off your penis.

Penis Warm Up Exercise For Penis Enlargement

Warming up your manhood before doing penis enlargement exercises is absolutely essential since doing so will send more blood into your penis to prepare it for the upcoming exercises. The heat and the moisture will also help the skin of your penis become easier to grip, which would be absolutely vital if you don't plan on using any lubricants for your exercises.

After doing each of your exercises, it would also be vital for you to warm down. After all, some exercises can really take a toll on a man's penis with all of the pressure, stretching, and pulling involved. Applying some heat after each exercise would, therefore, be vital to send more blood into the penis and bring the proper feelings back.

Besides, your manhood works just like any other muscle works. In other words, the tissues inside of it will need to rebuild and relax to speed up cell growth and cell repair. In order to make this happen, a simple warm washcloth and a basic massage can do a lot of good.

Hot Wrap Penis Warm Down  - Penis Enlargement Exercise

To start your warm-down, use a soothing lotion or cream right after finishing your penis enlargement exercises for the day and massage your manhood with it. Ideally, your movements should flow deeply and rhythmically across the whole shaft from the base to the tip. Do this for around a minute and keep in mind that your goal is to warm down your penis instead of warming it up.

To finish, soak your washcloth into some hot water once again and then wrap it around your whole penis afterward. The heat should be soothing after your penis enlargement exercises and help repair any damage that might have been caused during your routine.

The same way that athletes have to warm down after their exercises; that's how you should warm down after your penile exercises. Use this time to help rebuild your tissues and muscles and do the same thing every time you exercise your penis to ensure the best results and get the most gains in the long run.

Learn How To 'Make Time For Me Time', For Good Mental Health

Learn How To 'Make Time For Me Time', For Good Mental Health

We are often told of the absolute importance of putting ourselves first. Valuing ourselves. Loving ourselves 'take time out for yourself' we are told'make time for me time. But how is it to be done? what are we supposed to do in the'me time?

'me time' can be as unique as each of us. It can be done in many many different ways. It's all about experimenting and discovering what works for you. 

Mindless me times which are best avoided:

Often we spend our'me time' endlessly browsing through social media, playing games on our mobile, binge eating, binge watching the tv. Such activities (those that may be prefixed by'endlessly' or'binge') may on occasion, actually leave us feeling low, disconnected and listless and therefore these qualify as'not so healthy me times' and are best kept to'only very occasionally. 

Stress buster, mindless me times:

At other times our'me time' may include reading a book, watching a favourite tv serial, taking a walk, listening to music, dancing with gay abandon, eating an indulgent snack. I like to call these'mindless me times. These are great and extremely effective for de-stressing, taking a break and rejuvenating our energies. I recommend treating yourself to at least one'mindless me time' each day.

'mindful me times, an absolute must:

These are the'me times' when you choose to consciously and deliberately spend time with yourself. You look inwards, introspect, get to know yourself, understand yourself, forgive yourself, reassure yourself, applaud yourself, sympathise with yourself, appreciate yourself, encourage yourself. Basically, you give yourself whatever it is that you need from a true friend, at this moment in life.


Mindful me time essentials:

*alone, no disturbances no distractions, just you and your thoughts.

*in calm comfortable secure surroundings (whether simply at home or at an exotic holiday destination. That's your pick)

*celebrate yourself, by reminiscing,
-things about you that you are proud of,
-the obstacles you may have overcome,
-your achievements big and small,
-the joys of your life
-the sorrows that that are now past tense.

*forgive yourself for your follies.

*applaud yourself for your patience, courage. Whatever it is that defines you.

*get in touch with the real you. The imperfectly unique and beautiful you.

*understand yourself, appreciate yourself, accept yourself as you are. All of it - the good the bad the ugly.

Be patient, be persistent. Once you get to know you, you'll most definitely start enjoying your own company. Because no one can truly understand, appreciate and value you, the way you can. 

If you haven't done it so far, make a beginning today, at experimenting with'mindful me times. Even undergoing counseling sessions, focussed on discovering, understanding and accepting yourself qualify as'mindful me times.

 These are the ultimate self-care routine, and are an absolute'must' for maintaining good mental health and hygiene.

Coeliac disease is a condition that causes inflammation in the lining of part of the gut (the small intestine).

Coeliac disease is not a food allergy or a food intolerance. It is an autoimmune disease. The immune system makes white blood cells (lymphocytes) and antibodies to protect against foreign objects such as bacteria, viruses, and other germs. In an autoimmune disease, the immune system mistakes part or parts of the body as foreign. Other autoimmune diseases include type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and some thyroid disorders.

The lining of the small intestine contains millions of tiny tube-shaped structures called villi. These help food and nutrients to be digested more effectively into the body. But, in people with coeliac disease, the villi become flattened as a result of the inflammation. This means that food and nutrients are not so readily digested by the body.

Who does coeliac disease affect?

Coeliac disease affects about 1 in 100 people in the UK. Anyone, at any age, can develop coeliac disease. It is a condition that used to be associated with young children. However, it is now much more commonly diagnosed in adults. It is most commonly diagnosed in people aged between 50 and 69. About 1 in 4 cases are first diagnosed in people aged over 60.

Coeliac disease often runs in families. If you have a close family member who has coeliac disease (a brother, sister, parent or child) then you have a 1 in 10 chance of developing coeliac disease. It is also more common in people who have other autoimmune diseases - for example, some thyroid diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 diabetes.

Causes Behind Psoriasis!

Causes Behind Psoriasis!

Psoriasis is a skin condition marked by red, itchy and scaly patches on the skin although the problem of psoriasis extends to even deeper parts under the skin. People who suffer from psoriasis face an increased likelihood of contracting other serious medical conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and psoriatic arthritis.

The condition has no definite cure but the symptoms can be treated and managed.

Causes of psoriasis:

The following factors are proven to have contributed to cases of psoriasis:

  1. HIV: Human immunodeficiency virus adversely affects the immune system and increases susceptibility of all kinds of infections and diseases. HIV-positive individuals have been found to have an increased risk of psoriasis than HIV-negative people.
  2. Genetics: More than 32% of the cases of psoriasis have been linked to genes. In case of identical twins, if one twin has the disease, the other has a 70% chance of getting it too. There are several genes associated with the disease and most of these genes are related to the immune system. T cells (lymphocytes which affect cell specific immunity) can also cause psoriasis.
  3. Medication: Antimalarial, anti-inflammatory and blood pressure medicines can cause psoriasis as a side effect. The disease is also an effect of withdrawal from topical steroid creams and other steroid-based medication.
  4. Other diseases: Diseases like strep throat, chronic infections, skin infections and stress may be responsible for the condition. Other factors like obesity, alcoholism, skin dryness and smoking can also lead to psoriasis. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a Dermatologist.

DRESS Syndrome - Causes, Signs and Symptoms, Treatment

Exposure to some medications can cause severe rashes, organ failure, or abnormalities such as eosinophilia (steady rise of eosin, or fluorescent acid, stained white blood cells), and this condition is known as Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS).

Dress Syndrome Signs and Symptoms

Fever and rashes are the first signs of DRESS, and they show up 2-8 weeks after a specific medicine is started. Even if there is an improvement by stopping the original medicine, DRESS signs can still return after 3-4 weeks. The symptoms of DRESS include:

  1. Severe skin rash.
  2. Fever with recorded body temperatures above 38 degrees Celsius.
  3. Swollen nymph nodes on more than two areas on the body.
  4. At least one major internal organ is affected.
  5. Low platelets in the blood, along with unusual lymphocytes count.

DRESS Causes 

These are some common symptoms of DRESS Syndrome:

  1. Anticonvulsants
  2. Antibiotics
  3. Allopurinol
  4. Non-steroidal inflammatory drugs
  5. Captopril
  6. Mood stabilizers
  7. Antiretroviral

Other than medications, genetic factors are also a major cause of DRESS Syndrome. It has been found that people who have a close relative with DRESS are most vulnerable.

Dress Syndrome Treatment

  • A skin rash and fever may seem superficial at first, thus it is important for a thorough check-up so the offending medication can be immediately stopped.
  • DRESS syndrome has a mortality rate of 11 percent. Since DRESS presents itself in variable symptoms, it might be mistakenly diagnosed as another disease.
  • If DRESS is detected, quick suspension of the antagonizing medicine and supportive care is required to prevent serious repercussions or even death.

How Will You Know If You Have Blood Cancer?

How Will You Know If You Have Blood Cancer?

Unlike some forms of cancer, blood cancer has no regular screening tests presently. The doctors solely depend on patients coming in with the warning signs before sending them to sophisticated testing centers. Therefore, a large load of early detection of blood cancer lies with us knowing what the warning signs are.

Different forms of blood cancer have different symptoms

There are broadly three forms of blood cancer-

  1. Leukaemia: This form of blood cancer causes abnormalities in the bone marrow, which start producing cancerous white blood cells.
  2. Lymphoma: This is the cancer of the lymphatic system responsible for the immunity of the body.
  3. Myeloma: This blood cancer is caused due to abnormally multiplying plasma cells that deteriorate the immune system of the body.

However, all forms of blood cancer have some common warning symptoms including-

  • Bleeding and bruising, especially of gums
  • Low back pain in the elderly
  • Persistent infections and fever
  • Excessive and uncontrolled bleeding
  • Shortness of breath
  • General weakness and body aches

The symptoms change with age

Since different types of blood cancer become more likely at different ages, the symptoms also vary with age. Below 25 years of age, Lymphoblastic Leukaemia is more common and have symptoms including stomach and joint pain which can indicate. Between the ages of 25-49, Acute Myeloid Leukaemia is a common presentation with symptoms such as fatigue, bruising, and recurrent infections. At ages more than 50, the patients present with sudden weight loss, fever, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue, indicating a possible Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia.

Your symptoms vary with the stage of the blood cancer

Stage 1:

Stage 1 blood cancer shows enlargement in the lymph nodes is observed from the sudden increase in lymphocytes in the body, a common indication of infection in the body. The risk is minimum, and the chances of recovery are maximum at this stage. Usually, the cancer is yet to spread to various parts of the body and mostly localized.

Stage 2

The spread begins at this stage. The lymphocyte count increases rapidly causing enlargement of organs like the liver, spleen and lymph nodes.

Stage 3

The risk becomes significant at this stage with the liver and spleen extremely enlarged. Anaemia is a common presentation.

Stage 4:

In this final stage of cancer, the immune system of the body shatters and the platelet count drops resulting in severe anaemia. The cancerous cells have by now spread to the lungs and other vital organs. Chances of survival at this stage are extremely bleak.

As evident, early detection and treatment is key to surviving blood cancer. Since the symptoms are commonplace, people tend to ignore them until matter become grave and even fatal. It is best to consult a specialist, especially if you have a family history of cancer, to increase your odds of early detection while you still have a fighting chance.

Blood Cancer - 3 Most Common Types Of It!

Cancer is probably the most dreaded diseases of all. Blood cancer is a common type of cancer and affects not only the blood cells but can also affect other aspects of the body’s circulatory system such as the lymphatic system and the bone marrow as well.

There are three main types of blood cancer. These are:
Leukemia
This type of cancer originates in the blood cells and affects the circulatory system’s ability to produce red blood cells. It can also affect the bone marrow. Leukemia can also be categorized as acute or chronic. In cases of acute blood cancer, the patient may not exhibit any symptoms but in the case of chronic blood cancer, the symptoms may develop quite aggressively. These symptoms include:

  1. Fatigue and weakness
  2. Anemia
  3. Shortness of breath
  4. Unexplained weight loss
  5. Pain in the joints
  6. Skin rashes
  7. Frequent infections
  8. Fever
  9. Headaches
  10. Excessive sweating
  11. Swollen lymph nodes

Lymphoma
This type of cancer affects the lymphocytes. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cells that help the body fight infections. Lymphoma can be further categorized as Hodgkin Lymphoma or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma with the former being characterized by the presence of B lymphocytes or the Reed-Sternberg cell.

Swollen lymph nodes are the primary symptoms of Lymphoma. This swelling is usually painless and may be accompanied by loss of appetite, unexplained weight loss, night sweats and sudden cold bouts.

Myeloma
This type of cancer originates in the plasma cells. This is yet another type of white blood cells. Myeloma symptoms develop as the disease progresses. In its initial stages, there may be no visible symptoms. With time, patients will begin to notice tiredness, backaches, increased vulnerability to infections, shortness of breath, chest pain and kidney trouble.

Blood cancer treatment varies from person to person. The ideal treatment plan depends on a number of factors including the type of cancer, the stage it has been diagnosed at, the patient’s age and the speed at which the cancer is spreading.

Some of the most preferred forms of treatment for blood cancer are:

  1. ChemotherapyThis involves the use of drugs to restrict the growth of cancer cells in the body. This may often be combined with stem cell transplants.
  2. Stem cell transplantThis is a procedure that infuses healthy stem cells into the body. Stem cells have the ability to transform themselves into any type of cells and hence aid in producing new, healthy blood cells. Stem cells can be harvested from the patient’s bone marrow, blood or umbilical cord.
  3. Radiation: Radiation is used to kill cancerous cells and relieve pain. It may also be used along with stem cell transplants.
