HOW DO PEOPLE BE COME VERY IMPORTANCE IN THEIR COMMUNITY OR TOWN

Asked by ras don in Personal Health at 6:45 PM on February 13, 2008

anisha's Answer

'be the change to bring about a change'... if u want to have an impact on people around the society then u be the change u desire and talk about it to others... they will not accept it straight forward but the acceptance comes in stages like:
1. stage of observation: the people observe as to what u are doing and will just neglect u
2. stage of reaction: the people will start speaking negatively over what u r doing
3. stage of aggression: they may react violently to ur acts and many give up the idea of change when they are faced with this
4. stage of observation: if u persist with ur ideas despite aggression, the people start to believe in what u r up to and start to look up to u..
5. stage of acceptance: the people will slowly start accepting the changes and will become a part of the change...
the importance of knowing this is that if u want to make a change in ur society and become a important person, then u have to have a strong conviction and have to be persistent in ur efforts...

How are they treated?

Asked by sachin in Personal Health at 3:09 AM on February 13, 2008

anisha's Answer

the treatment mainly consists of the anti-histminics like cetrizine and the use of steroids.. these block the release of the chemicals which are released in excess during the allergic response.. the treatment is very effective and controls the symptoms... if there is breathing difficulty due to the hives the epineprine is administered to control the symptoms.. if it fails then mechanical ventilation is needed... for simple cases the anti-histaminics are enough...
