MakatiMed’s Department of Pediatrics explains how to avoid them</span></i></td></tr></tbody></table></p><br />For a family with young kids, summer means three things. The months-long break is forever synonymous with carefree days of sleeping in and waking up late and playing in the backyard all day.<br /><br />But summer is also the season for ailments and conditions that crop up during the searing weather. <br /><br />Don’t let them get in the way of your fun. Top hospital in the Philippines <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Makati Medical Center (MakatiMed)</b></span>, through its <b>Department of Pediatrics</b>, enumerates summer’s most common diseases among kids and how to prevent your little ones from getting them. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Skin Conditions</h2><div>Kids who stay out in the sun too long are bound to get one or both of these common skin conditions. </div><div><br /></div><div><blockquote>Prickly heat or bungang araw is an itchy and uncomfortable rash that develops when your sweat glands are blocked and sweat cannot rise to the surface of the skin to evaporate. Adults get it, but children get it more because their sweat glands are still developing </blockquote></div><div>says <b>Angelica Cecilia Tomas</b>, MD of MakatiMed. </div><div><br /></div><div>Apply calamine lotion or talcum powder to soothe the itchy, stinging sensation, and keep kids cool by changing them from sweaty clothes to loose, light-colored apparel. <br /><br />While outdoor play and more movement is encouraged for kids, it's important to be aware of the hours when sun exposure is more helpful than harmful. </div><div><br /></div><div><blockquote>Morning sunshine is still best for outdoor play. Ask your kids to take a break from playing (or play in a shaded area) when the sun’s rays are at their most intense—between 10 am to 4 pm—and have them hydrate regularly by drinking at least 8 glasses of water</blockquote></div><div>advises <b>Dr. Tomas</b>. <br /><br />In case a child develops a painful sunburn, give him a cool bath or apply a cool compress to the sunburned area. Applying aloe gel or topical moisturizer also helps relieve the burn.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Food-and-Water-Borne Diseases</h2></div><div><blockquote>Food poisoning is the result of consuming spoiled food and drinks. It happens more often during summer because bacteria thrive in hot weather and multiply in warm, moist places</blockquote></div><div>says <b>Dr. Tomas</b>. Unsanitary food handling also adds to the risk of food contamination. <br /><br />Upset stomach, vomiting, diarrhea and fever are telltale signs of someone who may have eaten spoiled food. If a child exhibits such symptoms, “give him or her plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration,” says Dr. Tomas. And prevent food poisoning from happening in the first place. Make sure the people who prepare the food observe sanitary practices by handwashing, cook food thoroughly and consume it immediately after it’s cooked, and serve and store them in clean containers. If anything looks, smells, or tastes funny, throw it away! <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Measles</h2></div><div>Otherwise known as tigdas, measles is a viral disease characterized by large, red flat blotches on the skin. The first signs of measles usually appear after 7-14 days after exposure to a person with the virus. Most common symptoms are high fever, cough, runny nose and red, watery eyes or conjunctivitis. The rash would appear after 3-5 days. <br /><br />According to <b>Dr. Tomas</b>, </div><div><blockquote>In the Philippines, cases of measles reach their peak in the summer months. It’s an airborne disease, and when a child infected with the virus doesn’t cover his mouth when he sneezes, the infected droplets spread into the air, contaminating others.</blockquote><br />Vaccinations protect your kids from catching measles. </div><div><blockquote>Ideally, the first dose should be given at 9 months, the second dose between the ages of 12 and 15 months, and the third dose between the ages of 4 and 6 years</blockquote></div><div><b>Dr. Tomas </b>points out. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Sore Eyes</h2></div><div>Sore eyes (conjunctivitis) is spread when your child touches his eyes after getting in contact with things (like toys) containing the eye secretions of an infected person. It can also enter your child’s eyes while he’s swimming in a poorly chlorinated pool. Symptoms include redness in the eyes, a watery or pus-like discharge in the eyes, difficulty opening the eyes in the morning, and pain when the eyes are exposed to sunlight. <br /><br /><blockquote>If the conjunctivitis is viral and without complications, it can heal on its own within a week. But if it is bacterial and affects vision, see an ophthalmologist for proper assessment and medication. Again, hygiene is the best way to prevent sore eyes.

REP will also collaborate with Lirio on The Bridge Project, a “skills exchange” program for professional practitioners trained in different theater cultures to create a congress for collaborative learning.

In fact, in the <a href="https://psa.gov.ph/statistics/survey/labor-and-employment/survey-overseas-filipinos" target="_blank">2022 Survey on Overseas Filipinos</a> released last OCT 11, 2023, the number of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) was estimated at 1.96 million. And since most of the Filipinos working abroad aim to seek better opportunities and higher salaries to provide better for their families, this count also corresponds to higher remittance sent to the country. For 2023, the Philippines is projected to be among the top recipients of remittances. <br /><br />You might have a family member or relative working abroad, and the question on “how to send the hard-earned cash safely, timely, conveniently, and without the huge fees to or from the country” has always been the top concern. Of course, we want to get the most out of it instead of losing a chunk on fees, exchange rate, and other factors. Here are 5 things you should consider when sending money abroad. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Money Transfer Service </h2>The first thing to check when sending money overseas is the method/service to use. Options vary from bank transfer, remittance centers, digital wallets, and so on. It is important to choose a service that suits your needs, available to both sender and receiver, and one that is safe and reliable. <br /><br /><a href="https://mlhuillier.com/kwarta-padala/">M Lhuillier Kwarta Padala</a> is a practical choice for Filipinos of different walks of life. With over 3,000 branches nationwide and close to a hundred international remittance partners, M Lhuillier continues to connect families even those who are living abroad by being the “Tulay ng PaMLyang Pilipino” when it comes to sending and receiving money internationally. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Exchange Rate </h2>Exchange rate is the value of one currency compared to another. This value can go up or down depending on several factors such as (but not limited to) economic conditions, interest rates, and political events. The fluctuations in rate may not seem significant but will definitely make a huge difference when transferring a lump sum of money. With ML Kwarta Padala, the recipient abroad can claim the money in the local currency of the recipient’s country, while if sent to the Philippines, the receiver can opt to have it in Philippine peso or US dollar -- which can be converted later on when the exchange rate is favorable.<div> <br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Fees </h2>When sending money abroad, keep in mind that there will be transfer fees involved. Aside from this, some methods may have hidden fees or extra costs. Better to explore different options and ask about the charges before making the actual transactions. ML Kwarta Padala’s transfer fee starts as low as Php3 making it an affordable and fast option but with a transfer limit. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Correct and Complete Information </h2>After considering the factors mentioned above, you would never want to commit the common mistake of providing incomplete information that would delay the transfer, or worse, accidentally sending the money to an incorrect recipient. So always double check, even triple check the information provided when doing the transaction. <br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Beware of Fraud </h2>Make sure you are sending the money to people you know. But then again, scammers can pretend to be your family or relatives needing money. Persuading you to transfer funds immediately is a red flag so better call or video call the recipient to ensure it’s legitimate. When choosing the transfer service, go for reputable and trustworthy ones like banks and accredited financial institutions. <a href="https://mlhuillier.com/" target="_blank">M Lhuillier</a> has established itself way back in the 1980s as a pawn and jewelry shop, and now catering to quick, easy, and reliable financial services such as Kwarta Padala, loans, insurance, and more. <br /><br /> <br />It is expected that year after year, the volume of remittances will continue to increase. More methods of sending money internationally may be available. The truth is it is now faster, more convenient and affordable to send money overseas due to various services from reliable institutions. Precautions should still be observed along with these 5 factors mentioned so you can send your cash to your loved ones the best way possible!<br /><br /><br /><br /></div>Jessa Acostahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08411532347187568702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3583928882667124904.post-352031601628383062024-01-12T14:51:00.002+08:002024-01-12T14:52:39.883+08:00Magbabagsakan Dito: #TheToughestPhone HONOR X9b 5G Officially Arrives JAN12 7PM! <p> </p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjenlQ2zTC1okugFFCKlNJ9wDMPT18aFpVJIyOrTxE46lztebdM0yP0uKjDT9cliAbwPxnqH2x0bGrpQP4YYAD0mzTw5LXYhgITai__Q2YkrxhrjxGaJfFOlbqDmFfCMQy9-MMqctqolKN04YSvOiXNRn-9J5iP7kspf_0yZur3wlu7WrRk0p2Efp0gml3S/s1920/Main%20KV%20-%20Chito%20Miranda%20graces%20HONOR%20X9b%205G%20Grand%20Launch.png" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjenlQ2zTC1okugFFCKlNJ9wDMPT18aFpVJIyOrTxE46lztebdM0yP0uKjDT9cliAbwPxnqH2x0bGrpQP4YYAD0mzTw5LXYhgITai__Q2YkrxhrjxGaJfFOlbqDmFfCMQy9-MMqctqolKN04YSvOiXNRn-9J5iP7kspf_0yZur3wlu7WrRk0p2Efp0gml3S/w640-h360/Main%20KV%20-%20Chito%20Miranda%20graces%20HONOR%20X9b%205G%20Grand%20Launch.png" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="color: #666666; font-size: x-small;">HONOR X9b 5G fever is real!

You have most likely seen the streets fill up with twinkling lights as you start to feel the noticeable chill in the air. Despite the excitement that this season brings, the shift in weather can bring challenges to those with sensitive skin, causing them to feel dryness and irritation during this joyful time. <br /><br />Having sensitive skin is no joke. Certain skin reactions like itching and redness caused by dry skin can hinder you from doing many things and therefore impact your quality of life. With this, <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Aveeno</span></b> understands the need for extra care—which is why Aveeno crafted your very own <b>skincare survival guide</b> that enables you and your skin to thrive amidst the holiday frenzy.<br /><br /></p><h2 style="text-align: left;">Tip #1: Stay Hydrated </h2>As we immerse ourselves in the Christmas rush, we must ensure our skin remains nourished and moisturized. This is something we can do with the help of <b>Aveeno</b>’s hydrating <b>two-step solution</b> which includes their <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Skin Relief Body Wash</span></b> and <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Moisturizing Lotion</b></span> for dry, itchy, and sensitive skin. Keeping your skin hydrated will make you more resilient and glowing throughout the holiday season.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Tip #2: Schedule Properly</h2>Amidst the intricate organizing that comes with these festive celebrations, being the appointed event organizer can lead to stress—and stress can trigger skin flare-ups especially for those with sensitive skin. By ensuring that your schedule is organized, you get to navigate the holidays with both efficiency and skin wellness in mind.<br /><br /><h2 style="text-align: left;">Tip #3: Enjoy the Season Free from Skin Irritation</h2>Enjoying the season means you can celebrate without the distraction of any skin concerns. When you give your skin the care and nurture that it needs, this gives you the chance to cherish every moment of the holidays, unburdened by any discomfort you may have on the skin.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg71LbrKZN43gKneFPnYq8sk6-wBkJnjdhATUkW9XjySEzm0SGUqNS6-aMHWfayIn-Udrw68yzMbkS2Ve1HxeBQt4e0ZDMAEVsWB65u5PLmIvlhNNJqH7HAn-5TRqOVe73G2waYP_EUMFkj0TpvOgle8RR5NkXHKUSAQiPs2lN_LaGtJSF06Sq6BDydrOPV/s836/AVN%20KV%203.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="836" data-original-width="836" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg71LbrKZN43gKneFPnYq8sk6-wBkJnjdhATUkW9XjySEzm0SGUqNS6-aMHWfayIn-Udrw68yzMbkS2Ve1HxeBQt4e0ZDMAEVsWB65u5PLmIvlhNNJqH7HAn-5TRqOVe73G2waYP_EUMFkj0TpvOgle8RR5NkXHKUSAQiPs2lN_LaGtJSF06Sq6BDydrOPV/w640-h640/AVN%20KV%203.png" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-size: x-small;"><i>Aveeno Skin Relief Regimen </i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><br />The <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><a href="https://shope.ee/kO6xymkG" target="_blank">Aveeno Skin Relief Regimen (Skin Relief Wash + Lotion)</a></b></span> is a dermatologist-recommended routine that is proven to help in managing your sensitive skin.

It’s just as useful even when staying indoors, especially this rainy season. We know that harmful UV rays from the sun are powerful enough to get through dark clouds and glass windows, but the blue light from our phones and laptops can also accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin. This leaves our skin prone to fine lines, wrinkles, and other types of damage. Basically, exposure to these harmful elements may undo all the hard work we’ve done to achieve our skincare goals.<br /><br />Complete your beauty routine by giving the skin all-encompassing protection from everyday stressors with <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Skin Aqua</span></b> and its <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Super Moisture Series</span></b>.<br /><br />Formulated in Japan, the line features <b>Super Moisture Essence </b>and <b>Super Moisture Gel</b>, both of which boast of the <b>wide-ranging 5-in-1 formula</b>. The sunscreens are created not only to protect the complexion against the usual <b>UVA</b> and <b>UVB rays</b> with its <b>PA++++ </b>and <b>SPF50+ </b>benefits, but they’re also designed to shield it from skin-damaging blue light and infrared. Rounding out the benefits, <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Skin Aqua </span></b>goes beyond by delivering super moisturization with an ultralight feel for your utmost comfort. You can even wear it as a makeup primer! <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqU9Qx5i1bZK6sGMnzIQ3yyWhr8A5u40Cirds-4VhN3-CoeAORvtitE-0mKTkAgEU8186S9mttZVbV2PqFso2P7pfVpy_nmxHXJ68ai7RY6Pw1jdRfyvlwFXdihtQB1MCLUP_iW_Sma4R8HaGaYeAUToDe4JacVuMyFPyOirQVko37MucpaE5c-gH7raAa/s1024/Skin%20Aqua%20Moisture%20Essence.jpeg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="1024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqU9Qx5i1bZK6sGMnzIQ3yyWhr8A5u40Cirds-4VhN3-CoeAORvtitE-0mKTkAgEU8186S9mttZVbV2PqFso2P7pfVpy_nmxHXJ68ai7RY6Pw1jdRfyvlwFXdihtQB1MCLUP_iW_Sma4R8HaGaYeAUToDe4JacVuMyFPyOirQVko37MucpaE5c-gH7raAa/w640-h640/Skin%20Aqua%20Moisture%20Essence.jpeg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="color: #666666; font-size: x-small;">Skin Aqua Super Moisture Essence</span></i></td></tr></tbody></table><br />Apart from preserving all your skincare progress, the sunscreens also offer skin-friendly ingredients to further complement your daily beauty regimen. <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Super Moisture Essence</span></b> specifically uses three types of <b>Hyaluronic Acid</b> to hydrate the complexion and <b>Vitamin C </b>to brighten uneven skin tone, delivered with its non-greasy formula that’s easily absorbed by the skin. <br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkOa-6c3hbh9PK23YC7ZDIOIan327ECaKVGXXquorIiwQC-Nz02k_VMlq1JW7x-oOwGhjN_F9AiYmpfR-rrpjwxaDWyBscxsxUvRuogtX1u2JBYGkXU1Kweejs79MUgYdxQT1cVPmFsU0tR17adijFaGVDRl2KXuCE2UzDfJF4na1_Kh6NNcOeoFyUjeiU/s1024/Skin%20Aqua%20Moisture%20Gel.jpeg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="1024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkOa-6c3hbh9PK23YC7ZDIOIan327ECaKVGXXquorIiwQC-Nz02k_VMlq1JW7x-oOwGhjN_F9AiYmpfR-rrpjwxaDWyBscxsxUvRuogtX1u2JBYGkXU1Kweejs79MUgYdxQT1cVPmFsU0tR17adijFaGVDRl2KXuCE2UzDfJF4na1_Kh6NNcOeoFyUjeiU/w640-h640/Skin%20Aqua%20Moisture%20Gel.jpeg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="color: #666666; font-size: x-small;">Skin Aqua Super Moisture Gel </span></i></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Super Moisture Gel </span></b>also contains <b>Vitamin C</b> for brightening and <b>Hyaluronic Acid</b> for hydration, plus with 9 moisturizing ingredients to create a superior hydrating gel with a water-light, weightless feel.
