5thoracic.com is an online medical information portal for doctors and for all those interested in health. My intention is to provide medical information for each “patient” in order to know his or her disease, to know the treatment options and also to quickly find, with my help, the right treatment for his health problem. It is the only place where, into the same online platform, you find a wide range of pharmaceutical and para-pharmaceutical products, nutritional supplements, medical devices, all of the highest quality.
That is why I developed and will continue the work on two large sections of medicine. First, diseases and disorders, with a rich index of common diseases, accompanied by related articles for each category. Secondly, a health guide with tips and interesting online articles on various topics of health.
5thoracic forum
Here I will provide you with health topics developed on the question-answer structure. If you have a health question, i recommend you to use the forum.You can search on specific sections and topics already posted or you can easily ask a question.
Dictionary of medicine
I will offer you a wide variety of medical terms, all explained and made easy for you to understand. So, if you find a term in the articles on this blog and you do not understand it, search for it in the dictionary.
Diseases and treatments
Here you will find a complete list of diseases and treatments for each disease.
Prevention and cure of diseases is the final goal of medicine, the knowledge and diagnosis of them being no more than steps on the way leading to this goal.
Because the disease, regardless of location, affects the body in general and gets particular aspects depending on the patient, treatment must address not only to the injured organ but also to restore functions to the other organs. Treatment must always be personalized – in other words, to treat the patient, not the disease.
The principal forms of treatment are:
- etiological treatment, addressing the causes of diseases;
- functional treatment, which aims to restore impaired function of the body;
- symptomatic treatment, which aims to combat (calming) symptoms.
There are multiple ways of treatment. They can be reduced to hygienic-
dietary treatment, treatment by physical agents, climatic and spa treatment, surgery.
About all this and more, you will find frequently revised information on this blog.
Drugs
My blog contains also a database of drugs used in medicine. I present you a wide variety of prospects of available drugs with or without prescription, which description includes detailed information about the composition, action, indications, contraindications, side effects, doses, method of administration and form of presentation. You can search either by groups of diseases, either alphabetically or use search – the easiest way to quickly find a drug, either by name or by disease and symptoms in which is indicated. You can also contact me for ordering articles about drugs and dietary supplements.
Only together we can control the disease and maintain health
There is a rule in medicine: an affection treated in early stages has always a better prognosis.
Therefore, my advice is to pay attention to any signs of disease and present yourself to a medical office; a periodic medical examination is necessary; in medicine “time does not heal all”.
Medical equipment
This section is for documentation and acquisition of medical instruments and medical devices in order to be fully useful to medical offices or to efficiently monitoring the status of each patient. Do not hesitate to see my offer, to be in touch with the latest products of the highest quality, with a very diverse spectrum of application.
Medical equipment promoted on this blog offers the guarantee of quality for your health. It is therefore important to leave behind outdated treatments that you practice at home and seek medical equipment and expert advice I can provide. Given the wide range of interventions that can be performed in a medical office, medical equipment was chosen according to these needs. Thus, you can benefit from the comfort of a high-tech equipment for the treatment. And as health should always be a priority, an annual consultation in offices equipped with per-formant medical equipment, especially if you have health problems for a long time, is important.
