Penis-lengthening surgery involves cutting the suspensory ligament that attaches the penis to the pubic bone. This allows more of the penis to hang down, giving the appearance of additional length. However, this procedure has significant risks, including scarring, loss of sensation, and instability...
How did they do it? The answer is actually as simple as it is: they grew their own lemons and tea leaves, and built a cold-chain logistics network that covers 97% of their stores. By cutting costs to the bone, they can offer drinks at prices that make your wallet smile. And with ...
Ultrasound uses sound waves to take pictures of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. An ultrasound can show inflammation and bone damage from arthritis. Computed tomography (CT) is another test that can show bone damage. A bone density test (DEXA scan) measures how much bone you’ve lo...
000 women aged 67 years and older in a national health study that began in the 1980s. None had osteoporosis at the outset. The researchers looked at how the women did on bone density tests, and followed them for 15 years to see who got osteoporosis and when. And they found that...

the move, just like regular headphones. However, bonephones are different because they bypass the outer and middle ear entirely. They also have a unique design that lends itself to physical activity, unlike most basic headphones. For these reasons, they may be preferred over regular headphones ...

Current clinical treatments concentrate on the inhibition of osteoclast activity to maintain bone mass in osteoporotic patients. However, these cells have a major role in removing existing microcracks from the bone matrix, and hence the use of bone resorption- inhibiting drugs may lead to insufficient...
4. Why is this test used? Why not use a regular X-ray or a CAT scan? Dexa Scans are used to measure bone mineral density because they: are more accurate than regular X-rays. A person would need to lose 20-30% of their bone density before it would show up on an X-ray. requir...
