A cough – which may be dry, or produce thick yellow, green, brown or blood-stained mucus (phlegm). 2. Difficulty breathing – your breathingRead more

What’re the symptoms present in pleurisy?
The main symptom of pleurisy is: 1. Chest pain (pleuritic pain) that feels sharp, stabbing or knife-like, coming from one specific place. It’s worse when you breathe deeply or cough and sometimes spreads to your shoulder or back. You’ll probably find yourself breathing carefully to avoid the pain. 2Read more

What is spirochaetes?
A spirochaete or spirochete is a member of the phylum Spirochaetota, (synonym Spirochaetes) which contains distinctive diderm (double-membrane) gram-negative bacteria, most of which have long, helically coiled (corkscrew-shaped or spiraled, hence the name) cells. Spirochaetes are chemoheterotrophicRead more
A spirochaete or spirochete is a member of the phylum Spirochaetota, (synonym Spirochaetes) which contains distinctive diderm (double-membrane) gram-negative bacteria, most of which have long, helically coiled (corkscrew-shaped or spiraled, hence the name) cells. Spirochaetes are chemoheterotrophic in nature, with lengths between 3 and 500 μm and diameters around 0.09 to at least 3 μm.
See lessSpirochaetes are distinguished from other bacterial phyla by the location of their flagella, called endoflagella which are sometimes called axial filaments. Endoflagella is anchored at each end (pole) of the bacterium within the periplasmic space (between the inner and outer membranes) where they project backward to extend the length of the cell. These cause a twisting motion which allows the spirochaete to move about. When reproducing, a spirochaete will undergo asexual transverse binary fission. Most spirochaetes are free-living and anaerobic, but there are numerous exceptions. Spirochaete bacteria are diverse in their pathogenic capacity and the ecological niches that they inhabit, as well as molecular characteristics including guanine-cytosine content and genome size.
How we can prevent tetanus?
Vaccination and good wound care are important to help prevent tetanus infection. Doctors can also use medicine to help prevent tetanus when someone is seriously hurt and isn’t up to date with tetanus vaccination.
