1. If acquiring a pet, make sure it is a healthy one, vet checked and not from a source rife with diseases.
Tuberculosis poses a risk to human health. The bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis can infect both cats and humans, and pass between them. The disease presents as nodules, draining tracts or non healing wounds, or as respiratory disease. Urgent medical and veterinary attention should be sought, though the incidence of pets passing it to their owners is very low.
Firstly, a risk assessment should be carried out. Good communication is essential between the medical and veterinary professionals involved. The goal is to maintain disease free status in the pet, whilst practicing thorough hygiene measures by the person. Being immunocompromised does not mean you cannot have a pet, but the following points should be taken into consideration:
Cats get cowpox infections by being bitten by voles and wood mice. Hence it is only outdoor cats that are affected, namely those that hunt. Many affected cats do not show any signs of disease. Transmission to humans is rare, and can cause painful skin nodules.
5. Good worming control (every 3 months in adult dogs and cats)
The increase in pet travel, and the occurrence of breeders sourcing stock from overseas, has made the risk of exposure to new diseases a little greater. The most common skin diseases transmissible to humans that occur in dogs and cats are sarcoptic mange (scabies), cheyletiellosis (mite infestation), fleas and dermatophytosis (ringworm). In general, young and newly acquired animals, especially those from animal shelters, are most likely to be affected by these diseases. Below we look at each of these diseases more closely.
Mycobacterial Infections
This can be caught from dogs, cats and small mammals such as rabbits or guinea pigs. Mites can survive in the environment for several days. Humans are only transiently infected, and develop itchy spots. Appropriate treatment of the affected animal, and the in contact animals, resolves the problem.
8. Regular general health checks by your veterinarian
3. Avoid your pet coming into contact with contaminated material from other animals (e.g. feces)
Malassezia Dermatitis
These are yeasts often found on normal skin in dogs, cats, humans and other species. Skin disease occurs as a reaction to the yeasts overgrowth and the hosts reaction to it. Transmission to humans has [url=http://www.lcdmo.com/hollister.php]hollister pas cher[/url] only ever been documented in immunocompromised people, and the [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/jimmy-choo.php]jimmy choo paris[/url] risk of infection is low.
Dermatophytosis (Ringworm)
Staphylococcal pyoderma (bacterial skin infection) is common in dogs, but not in cats. It often occurs secondary to another disease and usually involves the bacterium Staphylococcus intermedius. Contrast this to humans, where the main cause of bacterial skin infection is Staphylococcus aureus, and it [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]nike air jordan pas cher[/url] is clear that the risk of transmission to humans is very low.
In dogs and cats, infections with ringworm usually [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/jimmy-choo.php]jimmy choo chaussures[/url] resolve by themselves given time, unless the animal is immunocompromised [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet sale[/url] (e.g. on steroids). However, treatment is recommended so that the risk of transmission to humans is lessened. Dogs and cats are usually treated with a topical solution of itraconazole, while affected humans are usually prescribed an anti fungal cream to apply to affected areas.
Staphylococcal Infections
Flea Infestation
Cheyletiellosis
2. Safe feeding practices
Sarcoptic Mange
The flea will readily feed on humans and can cause a marked hypersensitivity reaction in some individuals. In addition, fleas can transmit other diseases, such as cat scratch disease (Bartonella henselae), tapeworm (Dipylidium caninum) and plague (Yersinia pestis). Regular flea control with veterinary recommended spot on treatments will keep the environmental population of fleas low, and minimize the risk of bites.
4. Vaccination annually
Since the reservoir of fleas [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister sale[/url] is predominantly in the environment, and jump onto the human from there, one might argue that this is not strictly transmitted from the animal. However, it is introduced into the household by the animal and therefore falls into this category.
This is caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei, and can affect a number of species. Different strains of the mite do tend to prefer different species, and the most common one which affects dogs and foxes only has an estimated 20 per cent chance of transmission to humans. Prolonged skin to skin contact is the main route of transmission, with the disease presenting as an itchy rash with small red spots. Usually, disease in the human will clear up of its own accord, once [url=http://www.lcdmo.com/hollister.php]hollister france[/url] the dog has been treated appropriately with a [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Hollister-b5.php]hollister france[/url] medicated shampoo or spot on drug. Occasionally, humans may need their own treatment though. It is very important to treat all in contact dogs as well. Unlike fleas, these mites do not tend to survive for long in the environment so reinfection is rare once the dog has been treated.
What can immunocompromised people do to minimize the risk to them?
Feline Poxvirus Infection
This is actually a type of fungus, not a worm as the name suggests. The most common type in dogs and cats is Microsporum canis. Transmission is often by direct contact, but spores can remain infective in the environment for many months. Dogs and cats may be carriers of the disease without showing any [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Barbour-Paris.php]barbour france paris[/url] signs of it themselves, while acting as a source of infection for their [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Hollister-b5.php]hollister[/url] owners.
Otodectic Mange (Ear Mites)
Dogs, cats and small mammals such as rabbits or guinea pigs are popular companions for many people, often sharing [url=http://www.fayatindia.com/giuseppe-zanotti.html]giuseppe zanotti pas cher[/url] their home environment. Being in such close contact, it is perhaps inevitable that sometimes disease is transmitted from pets to their owners. Though the diseases discussed in this article can affect any person, immunocompromised people such as infants, the elderly or those who are HIV+ need to be extra careful. This article looks at skin diseases of dogs and cats that can present a risk to their owners.
6. Good flea prevention (usually monthly for spot ons)
Actually, considering the large number of people interacting closely with small animals on a daily basis, the overall risk of contracting disease from a pet with skin disease is remarkably low. In general, keeping pets clean, free from parasites and healthy, as well as good personal and household hygiene such as proper hand washing, will minimize the risk of catching a disease from your pet. However, people belonging to risk categories (the immunosuppressed) need more specific advice.
7. Good dental care (brushing your pets teeth, dental chews to keep teeth clean)
These mites cause ear infections in dogs, cats and ferrets. They can, rarely, affect skin outside of the ear, and this has [url=http://www.shewyne.com/peutereyoutlet.html]peuterey sito ufficiale[/url] been reported sometimes in humans. It is however rare, and easily controlled by treating the affected animal with a certain acaricidal spot on drug (e.g. selamectin, moxidectin) or topical ear drops.

As we get older, we often pause to evaluate ourselves: Am I accomplishing all I want? Am I doing enough to help others? Am I flossing enough? Do I like my work? All sorts of questions pop into our minds. But, when you turn 40, 50, 60, and beyond the questions change. Why is my body making that noise? Am I eating right? What sorts of exercises do I need to stay fit?
We all ask these questions because we want to feel better and live healthier lives. However, as we age the exercises we did in our 20?s and 30?s are not as easy or as much fun anymore. It?s time to find new ways to make fitness work [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] for us, not against us. We know regular exercise can and [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] will keep us strong and vital. It is just a matter of finding activities that fit our needs. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Our Body is Changing. Our bodies change throughout our lives. We tend to notice these [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] changes more as we age. ?We see the results of physiological changes around 40 and after,? states Greg Payne, author, professor at San Jose State University?s Human Performance Department. Payne says, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] ?Strength, cardiovascular capacity, metabolic rate, flexibility and reaction time decrease as we grow older.? Over 40, specialist believe our functional capacity of most organ systems start to decline at the rate of one percent a year (or 10 percent a decade) if left unchecked. Decrease in bone mass, which hastens osteoporosis (especially in women), and water loss are major changes that [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] take place.
Optimistically, many of the symptoms of aging are really symptoms of lack of exercise. Studies show we can prevent as much as 50 percent of functional decline by participating [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] in regular exercise. Decline is related directly to lifestyle choices [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] rather than the biological process of aging.
Getting Motivated. Everyone has different motives for working [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] out ? from feeling and looking physically better to stress management and a need for physical fun and social activity. One major reason people choose to exercise is to improve appearance. However, the consultations, health histories and goals my over forty clients share with me indicate exercise becomes a health issue and stress-relief mechanism. Flexibility and strength become functional priorities in preserving their quality of life. Weight loss is important for appearance, as well as for health issues; e.g. high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, breathlessness and fatigue.
Exercise importance is pretty much a given, while adherence is the key. Having fun and working [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] out with a friend or family member helps encourage regular activity.
Over Forty Exercise Programs. A balanced exercise program that includes cardiovascular exercise (preferably low impact), muscular strengthening, endurance training and flexibility exercise is important for clients over 40. Fitness level, not age, determines the design, content and approach of a program. It?s never too late to exercise and you are never too old to start. When considering the average inactive population, my philosophy is that something is better than nothing, and my goal is to encourage participation in any activity that will result with health benefits.
