Using Medicines Correctly<\/h2>\n\n\n

I often see patients who use medicines incorrectly. Common examples are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • For nasal sprays spray them to the outside wall of the nose toward the pupil on the same side. Do not sniff after spaying the nose.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • When taking Prilosec or omeprazole, take it on an empty stomach (no food for 2 hours) then eat 30 minutes later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Any time you obtain a new medicine speak to the pharmacist and ask how to take the medication and ask about any important things to look for.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n

    First Aid for a Nosebleed<\/h2>\n\n\n

    Place Afrin nose spray on a cotton ball. Place it in the nose. Pinch and hold for 15 minutes. Try and remain calm, as higher heart rates have more bleeding.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Why do I Have To Fill the Portal for Medical Information Prior To Scheduling a Visit?<\/h2>\n\n\n

    We have you do this, so the office runs on time. This minimizes waiting in the office.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Many Causes of Cough<\/h2>\n\n\n

    Cough can be caused by many things. These include: colds, covid, reflux, sinusitis, allergy, sleep apnea, nasal blockage, medications (Lisinopril), harsh throat clearing, pneumonia.<\/p>\n\n\n

    What Is Earlens?<\/h2>\n\n\n

    We are now offering Earlens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This is a lens placed on the ear drum. It offers 2.5 times more complete sound, bringing listeners 16 times closer to normal hearing in the high frequencies. It offers 32% improvement in speech understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Why Is It Important To Look at X-rays?<\/h2>\n\n\n

    Dr Rosner looks at the ct scans he orders. Matching the patient\u2019s symptoms and findings on physical exam, while reviewing x-rays can improve diagnostic accuracy. This can help improve the report from the radiologist. If you have radiology that Dr Rosner did not order, try and bring a disk or make sure the doctor has ability to see the images.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
