Excessive Perspiration Fainting Attacks
Fever Fluid Retention

Excessive Perspiration

Sweating can occur for many reasons such as fever, general debilitation, stress and tension. In some cases HealthPoint can be a useful treatment.

Fainting Attacks

Fainting is a common problem. A true faint occurs when the blood supply to the brain suddenly drops. Common causes are hunger, exhaustion, emotional upsets, severe pain, hot and stuffy environments. If fainting attacks occur regularly then a medical opinion should be sought.

Fever

Fever is an oral temperature of 100 F (38 C) of higher and usually it is a sign that the body is fighting an infection. Overheating, reaction to immunizations, medications or injuries can also cause a fever.
HealthPoint offers a symptomatic approach to fever but the cause must also be treated. This may involve a course of antibiotics if a bacterial infection is present.

Fluid Retention

Fluid retention, also known as Edema, causes abnormal swelling that can occur anywhere in the body but frequently affects the hands, ankles, and feet. This may arise for many reasons. In women it is often due to hormonal unbalance. In some cases it can be due to heart failure, particularly in elderly people. In these cases therefore a proper diagnosis is necessary.
HealthPoint can be useful in treating some cases of fluid retention.
