00:01:32Dr. Mahmoud Sahel, a specialist in ear, nose,
00:01:36and throat diseases, and today we had a conversation with him about
00:01:40seasonal sore throats. Dr. Saheb, Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi, good morning.
00:01:44Assalamu Alaikum, good morning to you
00:01:46too. May you be well. Dr. Saheb, how did you start your morning
00:01:50today? May you be well. Alhamdulillah.
00:01:53It was good. Alhamdulillah.
00:01:56Unfortunately, with the arrival of the season or, let's say, with
00:02:00the change of seasons, ear, nose, and
00:02:03throat diseases increase a little bit. When we wake up in the morning,
00:02:06we feel that our throat is sore.
00:02:10It slowly gets better until 11 or 12 o'clock. What is the reason that
00:02:14the season changes and
00:02:17we get sore throats and things like that,
00:02:20and colds and flu and some other diseases? Look, first we'll have a
00:02:24short definition about it. Very
00:02:28good. In our part.
00:04:00a problem or a disorder in the throat and nose area is experienced.
00:04:04This is a problem. Correct, Dr.
00:04:07Is it possible that the food we
00:04:10eat at night, sometimes we might eat fatty food, sometimes
00:04:14we might eat sweet food, like various foods, maybe salty
00:04:17food. Is it the reason that when we wake up in the morning,
00:04:21we have a sore throat? Exactly. Look, when you
00:04:24eat fatty food at night or consume food that
00:04:28is oily. Later, it remains in the saliva
00:04:32of the mouth, in the teeth. Our patients have dental problems
00:04:35and this causes them to develop
00:04:39throat problems as well. When you
00:04:42chew all the food, food residues remain
00:04:46in the digestive system.
00:04:49When it remains, when you wake up in the morning, or
00:04:53you rest at night, it turns into a solid.
00:04:57Oil remains in the area of the digestive system.
00:05:01And many people who have more problems,
00:05:04they have a condition called GERD, or
00:05:08we call it reflux. They have this condition where the
00:05:11acid refluxes. That is, when the
00:05:15digestive system tries to go to the stomach, their
00:05:19stomach area does not close. When they sleep at night,
00:05:22this stomach acid along with food sometimes comes up to the throat
00:05:26area and irritates both the ear and
00:05:29damages the throat.
00:05:32I almost got 90% of the answer to my question,
00:05:36but I still want to ask this question because
00:05:39many times when we have a sore throat.
00:05:44The problem is due to our digestive
00:05:47diseases. Is this true? Yes.
00:05:50Exactly. Look, we have two or three topics
00:05:53regarding the throat, because many times
00:05:56when there is a dispute or an issue between
00:06:00doctors, the ear, nose, and throat doctor blames the chest
00:06:03doctor, and the chest doctor blames the ear, nose, and throat doctor.
00:06:07There is an issue between them because the pathway that comes up from the throat
00:06:11belongs to one doctor.
00:07:03People who live in society also have seasonal allergies. In the throat area, sometimes,
00:07:06look, in autumn,
00:07:10a patient with a sore throat, for example,
00:09:51you might get an allergic reaction or a bacterial or viral infection.
00:09:55Right, Dr. I noticed something, sometimes we
00:09:58feel that maybe we'll have a sore throat in the morning
00:10:01or we ate something and we know that we will definitely
00:10:05have a sore throat in the morning. Do we have any food,
00:10:08any solution, any way to prevent this when we know
00:10:15if you feel at night, because God has created
00:10:19some people in such a way that before
00:10:22a problem comes, from their body
00:10:52use milk and honey. Which is a very good
00:10:56treatment for inflammation in the body. And regarding
00:10:59the issue, if you feel weak, have a few dates,
00:11:03almonds, walnuts, one clove in your maker, and
00:11:07drink it. This itself strengthens the immune
00:11:11system immediately. It
00:11:14strengthens it. These things, unfortunately, have a drawback, they become a bit fatty.
00:11:18On the contrary, walnuts do not cause a sore
00:11:22throat. Right. Those who say walnuts,
00:11:28or the oils that are not necessary for the body,
00:11:32walnuts remove all of them from the blood. Right.
00:11:36What is our friend the ear and throat? What
00:11:40foods should we consume more often? What
00:11:43vitamins and what drinks
00:11:47should we have so that at least we are
00:11:50aware of this or have taken good care of our ears and throat?
00:11:53All.
00:12:25The friend or the best friend of the ear and throat,
00:12:28if we name a food,
00:12:32it is soup. Vegetable soup, of course, without chicken.
00:12:35It is the best option. Right, Doctor.
00:12:39How much do our teeth or our mouth
00:12:42affect our throat being healthy or our throat
00:12:46itself? What about the role of teeth in the
00:12:50throat or
00:12:53respiratory system?
00:12:55We sometimes complain about dentists
00:12:58who use one drill for two
00:13:01or three teeth of a patient, which is
00:13:04a challenge in itself, but many doctors
00:13:08absolutely do not notice, or
00:13:12their generation does not notice,
00:13:15that these teeth cause you to
00:13:19have a sore throat and inflammation of the
00:13:23mouth area. It also affects the digestive system
00:13:27and disrupts the digestive process.
00:13:30Right, Doctor. From one question
00:13:33another question arises. I noticed something,
00:13:37when we eat dinner especially if we eat meat, it gets stuck
00:13:41between our teeth. This causes problems for the teeth themselves.
00:13:44If we clean it with dental floss or whatever it is,
00:13:48without those things, it harms the throat.
00:13:52It causes inflammation inside the throat. Exactly, when you
00:13:55have food stuck in your teeth and it stays there for
00:13:596 or 7 hours,
00:14:02it turns into bacteria,
00:14:05it turns into chronic food or
00:14:09it gets poisoned. When you swallow your saliva,
00:14:13this itself causes a big problem for the
00:14:16throat system. The job of the tonsils is to
00:14:20clean all the pus. All the soldiers
00:14:23at the gate.
00:14:55there is inflammation or the throat system, the tonsils, are inflamed
00:14:58or the problem is fungal infections,
00:15:02and fungal infections are very easily eliminated, but they
00:15:05take a very long time. Many times
00:15:08when we see patients who have bad breath or
00:15:12dental problems or complain that they have digestive problems, but
00:15:16in reality, the problem is dental. The teeth are not brushing,
00:15:19and food residues remain in the mouth.
00:15:23And they wake up in the morning without brushing their teeth three or four times.
00:15:27They immediately
00:15:30drink tea or, for example, whatever breakfast
00:15:34they have, they consume it, and all the bacteria.
00:17:37you use turns into
00:17:40an action that performs
00:17:43an anti-inflammatory role in your body.
00:17:47Right. If you don't cook it properly,
00:17:51don't use it properly, it can be the worst food
00:17:54for you. In the same way, we also have it for musk.
00:17:57If you get fresh
00:18:00musk and cook it with eggs or
00:18:03cook it with another food, you use it and...
00:18:49is high. Right. And that
00:18:52you heated oil, after
00:18:56heating the oil, it turns back into a solid
00:18:59very quickly. If it doesn't turn into a solid,
00:19:03it's not oil, it's actually oil. Right.
00:19:06Right. Because we refer to
00:19:09edible things as oil. Yes, and
00:19:12we refer to things that are consumed as oil.
00:19:16If we come to categorizing oils
00:19:19and how many types
00:19:23of oils are currently standard and non-standard in Afghanistan,
00:19:26that's a separate discussion that
00:19:28concerns the Ministry of Public Health and
00:19:32Food. But the oils that you, for example, go
00:19:36and buy. Just once,
00:19:39very easily, heat it up a little bit for five minutes.
00:19:43If it turns into a solid, then from our perspective,
00:19:46it's the best oil. In hot weather, it's the same,
00:19:49in hot weather, it means it changes its state.
00:19:53Cold weather, of course, it's natural that normal oil
00:19:56that is natural
00:19:59turns all of them into a solid. It turns them into a solid.
00:20:03But if the oil is not good, it doesn't turn it back into a solid.
00:20:06It doesn't turn it into a solid. Real olive oil, for example,
00:20:10real mustard oil also turns into
00:20:13a solid because the colder the weather gets, they turn into a solid.
00:20:16But when the weather gets warm, it turns back itself, and this is something that
00:20:20is natural. We cannot do anything
00:20:23about it. Yes, thank you.
00:20:26Dr. Saheb, may you be well. Thank you. If I haven't asked any questions
00:20:30and it's on your mind, please, may you be well.
00:20:33The important thing is that it's winter. So
00:20:37make sure that especially people
00:20:40over 50 years old in Afghanistan, pneumonia
00:20:44is a very dangerous
00:20:48and serious issue.
00:20:50Infectious, bacterial, or viral infections that
00:20:53we have in Afghanistan, be very careful
00:20:56when they go to the mosque in the morning or to the
00:21:00mosque in the evening or sometimes go to Padro
00:21:04in the evening so that God forbid they don't get pneumonia,
00:21:07which would then create other problems for them.
00:21:10May you be well, Dr. Mahmoud
00:21:13Sahel, specialist in ear, nose, and throat diseases. Thank you for accepting
00:21:17our invitation. Thank you.
00:21:20Dear friends, we will also go for a break. The colleagues have
00:21:23prepared an informative package about pneumonia during the break.
00:21:27After that, we will be with Maulvi Saheb Shah Mohammad Omari.
00:21:30بودیم
00:21:38Pneumonia, or lung inflammation, is
00:21:41the inflammation of one or both lungs
00:21:45simultaneously, which leads to the infection and microbial
00:21:48contamination of the lungs.
00:22:17However, newborns, children, elderly, smokers, and individuals with immune system
00:22:22diseases or nutritional disorders
00:22:25are more susceptible to this disease. Due to
00:22:29antibiotic use, unfortunately, resistant
00:22:32strains of bacteria have emerged as causative agents of this disease.
00:22:35In the world, pneumonia is considered one of the
00:22:39leading causes of illness, disability, and death in children
00:22:43under five years of age. According to the World
00:22:46Health Organization, 1.2 million children
00:22:50die annually from pneumonia.
00:22:53Symptoms of pneumonia in adults: several
00:22:57days before the onset of pneumonia, symptoms of upper
00:23:00respiratory tract infection are observed, including
00:23:04runny nose and cough, and in adults, the usual
00:23:08signs and symptoms are fever, cough, phlegm, sweat,
00:23:11chills, chest pain, and shortness of breath.
00:23:15Clinical manifestations of viral and
00:23:19bacterial pneumonia often differ: rapid
00:23:22breathing, cough, weakness, and malaise, chest
00:23:25pain, and muscle stiffness. Viral pneumonia
00:23:29is more often accompanied by cough or wheezing,
00:23:32and fever is less common than in bacterial pneumonia.
00:23:36The lung X-ray in the
00:23:39viral form shows diffuse linear infiltrates
00:23:43due to bronchopneumonia, and the white blood
00:23:47cell count often does not change.
00:23:50Pneumonia complications, even with treatment, may
00:23:54occur in some individuals with pneumonia, especially those
00:23:57in high-risk groups. These complications
00:24:01may include the following: first,
00:24:04bacteria in the bloodstream. Bacteria
00:24:08that enter the bloodstream from the lungs
00:24:12can spread the infection to other
00:24:15organs of the body, which is potentially
00:24:19گونه بالقوه و
00:24:23If the pneumonia is severe or the person has chronic obstructive
00:24:27pulmonary disease, then the person may
00:24:31have difficulty breathing enough oxygen. Such
00:24:34a person may need to be hospitalized and use a
00:24:38ventilator until their lungs recover.
