DoD-PHS Partnership for Psychological Health – Naval Medical Center Portsmouth
bjbj 12-1219_DoD_PHS_MOA_Portsmouth [music
playing] Kevin Kennedy: My name is Captain Kevin Kennedy. I m the director of mental
health here at Navy Medical Center Portsmouth. We service service members and their beneficiaries
throughout the Hampton Roads area. We cover all the branch clinics, providing psychiatric,
psychological, and substance abuse services. We have a real variety of public health service
officers. We have everyone from a neuropsychologist to several social workers. We also have some
nurse corps officers who provide management of our outpatient clinics. We — the social
workers work in areas of child and family services, as well as our traumatic and operational
stress clinics. They also provide services out at the branch clinics. We have psychologists
on board who serve in our psychology clinic, as well as in our substance abuse rehab program.
Now what was key about the Public Health Service partnership is that we — it embedded people
that were in uniform so that they could provide both clinical services as well as assisting
us with providing management of the civilians and contractors that we were hiring. Marion
Collins: The memorandum of understanding is — essentially was developed to assist our
military treatment facilities with the mental health initiative due to the fact that we
have so many of our men and women, you know, going overseas and returning that need our
services. Due to the active duty mental health providers being consistently deployed, it
would be an excellent idea to place public health here, because we do provide consistent
services, and also due to the number of years of experience that we bring to the table,
it is — works out very well for the military treatment facilities. Jonathan Lewis: We provide
a great deal of leadership within the mental health directorate and, in addition to that,
we provide, you know, basic frontline clinical services. And so we provide the management
in a lot of areas and hold down the fort while many people are deployed. We provide continuity
of care, but we also provide that frontline service of seeing clinical cases. That stuff
we've been talking about, techniques that I've been kind of giving you, have those had
any benefit? Michael Franks: The opportunity to work within the DoD, to again work within
DoD, was maybe one of the driving forces behind coming into Public Health Service. I was active
duty Navy for a good, you know, six to seven years, including my Reserve time, and deployed
a lot. That was when I made the decision to go from active to Reserve, and the Public
Health Service gave me the opportunity to come back on full duty, and into a military
environment working within the DoD. So with the memorandum of understanding between DoD
and PHS, was probably the driving force to bring me in here. Ingrid Pauli: I've been
at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth for 27 months as a Public Health Service officer.
And in those 27 months I've spent 17 of those months as the interim department head covering
for Navy psychologists who are deployed to Afghanistan. And I think that there are a
lot of aspects to our traumatic brain injury program that are unique. One of the very unique
aspects of our traumatic brain injury program is that we have a mobile assessment unit,
and so that's like a great big Winnebago, for lack of a better term, that we're able
to take on the road to other commands that may not have the resources to be able to afford
their own neuropsychologist, their own techs to do testing or assessment to look for traumatic
brain injury. So I think that's a very unique — we have the only mobile assessment unit
in all of DoD here at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth. Thomas Costello: — our take it
back psycho-educational group. Today we're going to discuss the Stress Continuum Model.
In program development and direct practice we've been able to reach out to the community
clinics. We have nine branch clinics all over the Hampton Roads area, and several of our
public health service staff have worked in the clinics, are currently working in the
clinics, and we've developed specific programs that did not exist before we came here and
I believe we were instrumental in developing our PTSD and TBI services. With the Back on
Track program, I teach a group on relationships and how psychological trauma can affect relationships.
And so far it's been well received, and the service members feel like they can leave that
module, leave that group with a better sense of restoring balance to their families after
being deployed for so long or for being deployed for multiple times. Michael Franks: One of
the major things that I've worked with here since I've been on active duty here with Portsmouth
Naval Hospital is the training program. We started an internship and a post-doctoral
fellowship, so we — I have been working with them from the beginning from the creation
of the programs up to the accreditation — or bringing on the first interns in post-docs
and all through the accreditation process. We earned accreditation here in the first
year of the inception of both programs, one right after the other. James Decker: I'm currently
an intern at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, and I'm in the first year, just finishing
up, of a four-year residency in psychiatry. I'd say one of the best things about this
program is they're very dedicated here to keeping you and your skills up to being a
full physician, because a lot of their interns here can go and be a general medical officer
and they're the docs, say for a ship or for a small group out in the middle of nowhere
when it comes. So, you know, I worked in an ICU. I worked on the medicine floor. I worked
down in the ER and not as a psychiatrist, but as a doctor, so that they — as a medical
doctor, so they really wanted to test your mettle and train you up in interacting and
working in those fields so that eventually if you ended up having to do that, that's
what you could do. Kevin Kennedy: The influence of Public Health Service officers has allowed
us to have faculty to augment those programs, as well as providing supervision for our trainees.
The end result of that is that Portsmouth has been able to become the premier site for
clinical psychology training in the Navy. Thomas Costello: Well, I think it's critical
to have a PHS presence with the DoD. Certainly the demand for services is there and the success
is there. It's a wonderful partnership and I hope that it's a partnership that lasts
for quite a long time. Kevin Kennedy: The advantage of having people in uniform from
the Public Health Service is that we have leaders that are there kind of at the ready
to help service people both in terms of staff and in terms of making sure that the patients
have the direct access that they need. So with that management, we have been able to
increase our capacity, as well as increase our access to care so that we can get patients
in quickly. [music playing] [end of transcript] HHS: 091010 More Magazine Interview PAGE DATE

Fun Fashions
I know how to sew, but I generally choose not to! I like statement items that have a bit of funny embedded in them. I draw things that I find funny – I hope you will too! If you have a quirky sense of humor, a desire to wear things that are comfortable, practical, and eco-conservative – watch here for some upcoming fun items. Some are from handmade artists that I love, others will be printed-on-demand items from artist drawings and designs shipped to you from the printer.

So after taking increasingly long breaks from blogging, mostly due to life happening around me, but sometimes due to laziness, I've pretty much decided to stop updating this website before the domain name renewal in June. This will allow me to wrap it up neatly (6 years strong), and provide one last Trip Report– for the upcoming May Disneyland trip. Read on for a great update on our flights! Read the rest of this entry »
American Express stuff: Small Business Saturday and Amex Offers
Do you want the good news or the bad news first?
I personally like to hear the bad news first, so I am temporarily bummed but still have the potential to be cheered up. I'll list the news thusly, then…
BAD NEWS: If you aren't already aware of the American Express promotion Small Business Saturday (SBS), here's a quick history. They started the promotion about 4 years ago to try and give local stores/restaurants/service providers a chance for more business during Thanksgiving weekend. Of course, Small Business Saturday was scheduled for the day after Black Friday, when many people shop the big-box stores, chain department stores, and wholesale retailers for good deals on holiday gifts. It was also a chance for Amex cardholders to save a lot of money, because some sort of statement credit was usually involved. Last year it was a $10 statement credit for any purchase of $10 or more, up to 3 times, on each participating Amex card. Between my husband and I, we had the Costco Amex, we each had an Amex Serve card, and I had the SPG Amex- that meant a total of 12 different $10 statement credits available to us. We searched the SBS site for local business and identified which we wanted to patronize. In some cases, we just bought a $10 gift card to use on another day- free money. In other cases, we waited to purchase something we wanted from the store, and got it at a $10 discount that day (I'm looking at you, Ono Cheese Steak). This year, they are still promoting Small Business Saturday, but are not offering any statement credits for Amex cardholders. Bummer! They do still offer lots of resources for small business owners to market their services, and seem to be very supportive of local shops. We all should, and this is pretty important in Hawaii- the whole Shop Local thing.
Now for the good news: Amex Offers are a yearlong perk to having an American Express Card. Basically, they are targeted offers that differ depending on your zip code, spending patterns, or whatever other information Amex gleans from your credit card applications and statement. Many times an Offer includes a statement credit, such as "spend $50, receive a $15 statement credit." Occasionally they will have a special offer for cardholders, such as "Omaha Steaks package for $45 with free shipping." You can go to AmexOffers.com to log in with your Amex card login, or FB/Twitter.
Scroll down, and simply select an offer that is on your list. In some cases, the offer has a hashtag associated that will add the offer to all of your Amex accounts. I don't do Twitter, so I just look at my list.
You can click the offer to see the terms and conditions. ALWAYS read them- they can be very specific, restricting what qualifies as a purchase for the offer, plus they contain an expiration date. Usually, there is not problem with starting your shopping trip at an airline shopping portal, or something like Ebates, which can make your deal even sweeter.
Once the offer is added and you use it correctly, you'll get a confirmation email, generally within minutes of the transaction:
Then you just look out for your statement credit! A few tips:
- again, always read the terms and conditions.
- if you have multiple Amex cards, there are usually different offers for each card. Check all of them!
- check your statement- technically they have up to 90 days to post the statement credit, but I usually see them within 3 days.
- keep an eye out for the confirmation email. In rare cases, you won't get an email. You can either reach out to Amex or wait about a week to see if the credit posts on its own.
- the minimum amount required is based on the total charged, including taxes and shipping costs if applicable.
GOOD NEWS: One of these lovely Amex offers just popped up for transactions at Undercover Tourist! See my screenshot of the offer above- it's a $30 statement credit when you spend $150 or more. You may remember that we purchased our Disney and Universal tickets on the site not long ago. They are authorized to sell tickets to all these cool places, and even more, like local whale watching trips, and even rental cars:
•Walt Disney World
•Universal Orlando
•SeaWorld Orlando
•Legoland Florida
•Kennedy Space Center
•Universal Studios Hollywood
•Six Flags Magic Mountain
•Knott's Berry Farm
•Madame Tussauds Hollywood
•Pirate's Dinner Adventure Anaheim
•SeaWorld San Diego
•Legoland California
•San Diego Zoo
•San Diego Zoo Safari Park
•Sea Life Aquarium
I think you know what I'll be looking to purchase using this offer! San Diego Zoo and Safari Park, baby! I should know by the end of December -when the offer expires- when we can take that trip. Looking at the (what else?) terms and conditions of the e-tickets sold for the Safari Park, for example, they are only valid "during the calendar year when purchased." So I don't want to buy them too far ahead of time.
So there you have it- the highs and low of credit card perks: Amex edition. As always, I don't get any compensation/special stuff for talking about it. See my disclaimer. I just want everyone to get a good deal. Have fun shopping!
Disney Pre-Trip Report: let us in! let us in!
Did you know that some people do "resort-only" trips, where they stay in a new (to them) Disney resort, and just enjoy the facilities, restaurants, and Downtown Disney? It apparently makes for a very relaxing vacation. They avoid all the craziness of the Parks, and save a lot of money. Perhaps I should consider….
<brakes squealing> Yeah, right. No way am I traveling 5000 miles for a hotel, even a Disney one. Bring on the rides, shows and characters, baby! Bring on the heat, and the crowds, and the potential for blisters! Bring me that horizon! (tm Capt. Jack Sparrow)
To experience all that, I need tickets.
I reviewed my choices for Universal Islands of Adventure tickets in that planning post. After 10 months of looking, I haven't found any other applicable discount to those darn Universal 1-day-1-park tickets that I need. But I found a way to get them for free and then some using credit cards…and it's all totally legitimate. Explanation to follow 🙂
On the Disney side of the equation, I settled on 6-day Magic Your Way Park Hoppers. Park Hoppers will allow us to go to any park at any time, for 6 days over the course of our whole vacation (the 6 days don't have to be consecutive). Here is a great explanation on the Disney ticket options, including a handy calculator- this is the official site for the Unofficial Guide people.
In the end, it made most sense to purchase all the tix at the same time, in one order, from UndercoverTourist. This is a valid Disney and Universal ticket broker. Nothing shady here. I'm on the MouseSavers email list, which entitles me to the special link to UndercoverTourist for additional savings over the standard UT discounts. Not huge, but every Disney Dollar counts. Still, I was looking at a large chunk of change.
Hours of research led me to conclude that the best way to buy almost $2k worth of admissions was to charge them on a credit card.
Duh! But it's the specific card used that matters. We haven't gotten a new credit card in a little while, and I was itching for a fresh sign-up bonus that would help us out with this significant cost…I found it in the Barclaycard Arrival Plus Mastercard. This card allows for point redemptions on eligible travel purchases over $25. You get 2 "points" for every 1 dollar in spending. Cash back (what they are calling "redemptions") comes in the form of a statement credit. The 40k point bonus (worth $400) comes after spending $3k in purchases within the first 3 months of getting approved for the card. This means that you wind up with more than 40k points when you have reached the spending threshold, since you earn points for the spending, too. Technically, you have at least 45K+ points to redeem against your travel-related purchase after reaching the spend. You see where I'm going? We timed our spending on some other household stuff to coincide with the purchase of the tickets so that we reached the $3k spend in the first billing cycle. Then, when the bonus points were posted, we applied all the points to the Undercover Tourist charge, and received a $450 statement credit. Boom! Our total charge for both Universal and Disney tickets was $1996, and we will only have to pay $1545 of that. Our Universal tickets were completely covered by the statement credit, and then some.
Now, you don't have to follow this particular strategy of completing the spending all in one billing cycle. You can redeem for travel-related purchases up to 120 days after the day the charge posts. But I never carry a balance, and didn't feel like shelling out the cash now only to reimburse myself later, so we did it this way. And the extra bonus on top of that bonus? You get 10% of your redeemed points back, so we now have 4,500 points back (worth $45) to redeem against a different travel-related charge.
The Arrival+ is a great everyday card since you always get the 2 points/dollar, and still have the flexibility of cash in the form of the statement credit- you are not tied to a particular loyalty program. It carries a $95 annual fee, which is waived for the 1st year. It's good for people for whom price is the bottom line on any travel decisions, and people who don't travel enough to earn lots of miles in one frequent flyer/hotel/rental car program. It's hard to justify the annual fee after the 1st year, though. We'll see if we keep it long-term. But for now, thanks for the free tix, Barclay Bank!
I know what you're thinking…she's only spending 6 days in the Parks?! Yes and no. We're not doing Parks on the arrival or departure days, and are spending the 1 day at Universal. That leaves a max of 8 Park days, and I always insist on a total non-park day to rest my weary bones. That still leaves 7 days and you only have a 6-day ticket, you say? Well, we are attending Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. It's one of the only times adults can wear costumes inside of a Disney Park, and it considered a "hard-ticket" event- so your ticket counts as admission, no need to use up a Park Hopper day! The party starts at 7pm and ends at midnight, but party-ticket holders can get in beginning at 4pm. So we're really in the Parks for 7 days 🙂
On our Party day, we'll sleep in, do some laundry, and eat lunch at Downtown Disney before heading back to the hotel to get our sorta-costumes on! We've decided to "DisneyBound" (dressing inspired by the signature colors of a Disney character without using a literal costume) as characters from Finding Nemo. I'm Dory! Getting inspired by these images:
I saw Jurassic World, and got totally re-pumped for the Jurassic Park River Adventure ride in Universal. There's a new Raptor Experience, too!
We're getting close to Double-Digit Dance Day (aka 99 days left until the trip)!!! SO. MUCH. EXCITEMENT.
Theme Park Planning- Universal Studios Tickets
So I outlined my 1-day, 1-park strategy for Islands of Adventure here. Now let's talk admission tickets, and some ways to save money!
As with most theme parks, the price per day of admission goes down as the number of days on the ticket increases. This is because the more time you spend in the park, the more opportunity for you to spend money on food, souvenirs and extra experiences. So, the park gives you an incentive to stay longer by making days 4, 5, and beyond much cheaper than days 1 and 2. Huh? Here's a handy chart if you are a visual learner:
The main thing you'll notice is that the values along the green line, representing the average ticket cost per day of admission, get lower as the # of days admission gets higher. It's a powerful motivation to add more park days onto your ticket. In my sample above, you can add another day for only $10 in some cases! A perfect example of that classic sales tactic, "The more you buy, the more you save!"
What a lovely saying. We all know the truth—the more you buy, the more you spend. But as we've determined that travel is worth spending for, we continue on our quest to at least spend wisely! Back to the tickets.
In the case of Universal, they only sell Base tickets (1 park only), or Park-to-Park Admissions of up to 4 days. If you're staying longer than that, an Annual Pass is your best bet to reduce costs, and they tell you so right on the site. For tickets of 2 days or more, whether Base or Park-to-Park, one way to save money is buy the tickets online at the Universal Orlando Resort site. Currently they offer a $20 discount for online purchases. Things to know:
- You can buy tix whenever you want in advance of your trip- they don't start counting the days until you first use them at the gate. You then have 14 days to use all your admissions up, and they don't have to be consecutive days. For a 4-day ticket, you can go the Park on a Monday the 1st, Wednesday the 3rd, Sunday the 7th and use your last day on Sunday the 13th, or whatever combination you choose.
- No refunds on days you don't wind up using within the 14-day window.
- Only Park-to-Park tix can be used to enter more than 1 park per day (meaning, if you have 2-day Base tix, you can't use 1 admission "credit" for IoA in the morning, and then use another "credit" for Universal Studios that same day).
- Tix are not transferable, they must be used by the same person every time.
- You can print your tix at home or pick them up at the Park's Will Call window. Though choosing to get into a line that won't end in a ride is baffling to me, I realize that some people don't have a printer or are picking up tix that someone else bought for them.
- Be prepared to show photo ID at the ticket window if picking tix up.
- You can also add admission to the Wet 'n Wild Waterpark or Blue Man Group shows along with your park tix.
Well, the bad news is that there are almost NEVER discounts available on the ticket I need for my visit: 1-day Base. I need to spend $96 per adult, and yes, my tween counts as an adult (ages 10 and up!), and $90 for my toddler just to walk into the place. Ouch. I'll continue to look at possible discounts as we approach the trip, since there are various avenues that just might turn up a little bit of relief for the wallet. Here's my checklist of sites to consult as I prepare to buy our tix:
- I'll always start at the Universal site itself. They occasionally run promotions offering more than the standard $20 discount per ticket for direct online purchases. Note that you have to get a few steps into the ordering process to see your true total including tax.
- Undercover Tourist: this is a reliable ticket broker site that offers admission discounts along with free shipping, AND their displayed prices already include tax.
- AAA: again, occasional discounts available right now, they offer the same price as the Universal site, and only on Park-to-Park tix. They do offer a small discount if you buy tix at the gate and show your AAA card.
- AARP: we used this site to great effect to save $80 on our Hershey Park tix. Nothing spectacular for Universal right now.
- Costco: you can search the site for discounted theme park tix, check the warehouse, or go to Costco Travel for vacation packages that include hotel, rental car, and tix as a bundle. Many of the vacation packages offer a Costco Cash card for booking.
Also, a few of these discounts may apply to some of you out there: military discount here, Florida Resident discounts here. Those of you combining a visit to Universal with other Orlando attractions like Sea World/Aquatica/Busch Gardens Tampa Bay might look into the Orlando Flex Ticket to save on overall admission costs. People whose employers participate in Tickets at Work or Working Advantage are lucky ducks indeed- check with your Human Resources or Benefits Dept for a password.
There is one more way to save on Theme Park ticket purchases that I know of: use some of those hard-earned credit card rewards!
While I would never use actual airline miles on merchandise unless I was simply overflowing with them, there are alternate points one can earn and redeem from credit cards, like Ultimate Rewards points from select Chase bank credit cards (I've only seen Universal tickets offered occasionally), Membership Rewards points from select American Express credit cards, Hilton HHonors points from the co-branded credit cards or Hilton Stays- redeem through the Shopping Mall portal, and Barclaycard Arrival points (Note: this card offers cash back in the form of statement credits for qualifying travel purchases. The ticket purchase on its own would not be eligible, but if you bought tix as part of your hotel charges or with a package including hotel/air/etc, it would count). Some of these cards have annual fees, so factor that cost into your savings calculations.
Finally, the U.S. Travel Association partners with American Express every spring (roughly late May through early June) to offer some pretty amazing travel deals called Daily Getaways. This past spring, a 2-day Universal Studios Hollywood ticket was going for about $89, a hefty savings. They announce the deals about a week before they go live on the site, and you need to be quick, they mostly sell out FAST. Be sure you read all the details before purchasing a deal- they are nonrefundable and I heard of at least 1 person who bought that Universal ticket without realizing it was for California and not Florida. Bonus: if you pay with an American Express card, you get an additional 10% off the deal.
I'll be on the lookout for any and all Universal 1-day Base ticket discounts from now until next summer! I'll let you know if I'm able to score a deal.
I just want you guys to know that prior to having this blog, I would talk about and debate the merits of all these kinds of options out loud to my husband. Several times over the year leading up to a trip. Which is all the time, because I am always planning a trip. And usually late at night, which is when I do my best thinking (shhh, don't tell my boss). So, by reading, you are doing a great public service to my husband, his ears, and his REM sleep patterns. Were he to meet you, he would thank you sincerely.

Garage Conversion: Utility/Games Room
We converted this garage into a utility/kids games room for our customer, who was fed up with the kids hogging the living room TV with their Xbox and so decided to turn their unused garage into this beautiful space. We fitted a kitchen with LED lights in the kickboards, a washing machine and additional storage for ironing etc.
The customer was concerned with how the conversion would blend in with the rest of the house on the outside, but as you can see the bricks and window match a treat and the conversion looks like it has always been there.
I cannot recommend Pro Build highly enough. From the initial call to the end of the project, Les and Martin (and their team) have been superb. The quality of their work is absolutely first class. They are flexible and adaptable, and a delight to have in our home. The garage looks absolutely amazing – far better than we thought possible!

New insights into the role of plasmids from probiotic Lactobacillus pentosus MP-10 in Aloreña table olive brine fermentation
Abriouel, Hikmate and Pérez Montoro, Beatriz and Ordoñez, Juan José de la Fuente and Lavilla Lerma, Leyre and Knapp, Charles W. and Benomar, Nabil (2019) New insights into the role of plasmids from probiotic Lactobacillus pentosus MP-10 in Aloreña table olive brine fermentation.

In silico analysis of Lactobacillus pentosus MP-10 plasmids (pLPE-1 to pLPE-5) suggests that plasmid-borne genes mediate the persistence of lactobacilli during olive fermentation and enhance their probiotic properties and their competitiveness in several ecological niches. The role of plasmids in the probiotic activities of L. pentosus MP-10 was investigated by plasmid-curing process which showed that plasmids contribute in increased metal tolerance and the biosequestration of several metals such as iron, aluminium, cobalt, copper, zinc, cadmium and mercury. Statistically significant differences in mucin adhesion were detected between the uncured and the cured L. pentosus MP-10, which possibly relied on a serine-rich adhesin (sraP) gene detected on the pLPE-2 plasmid. However, plasmid curing did not affect their tolerance to gastro-intestinal conditions, neither their growth ability under pre-determined conditions, nor auto-aggregation and pathogen co-aggregation were changed among the cured and uncured L. pentosus MP-10. These findings suggest that L. pentosus MP-10 plasmids play an important role in gastro-intestinal protection due to their attachment to mucin and, thus, preventing several diseases. Furthermore, L. pentosus MP-10 could be used as a bioquencher of metals in the gut, reducing the amount of these potentially toxic elements in humans and animals, food matrices, and environmental bioremediation.

Forrest Co. restaurant dining rooms, bars closed; to offer takeout or delivery servicesBy HASKEL BURNS,
- 2075 reads
As of midnight March 21, all restaurants and bars throughout Forrest County are banned from offering any dine-in services, and are limited to providing only takeout, delivery, pickup or drive-through services as applicable until further notice.
David Hogan, who serves as president of the Forrest County Board of Supervisors, and District 4 Supervisor Rod Woullard met Saturday at the Paul B. Johnson Chancery Building to sign an executive order under Section 33-15-17(7) of the Mississippi Code of 1972, establishing those restrictions to help put a stop to the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
"We would like to strongly encourage the community to use curbside takeout and online delivery services whenever possible," Hogan said. "We also want to take this opportunity to strongly urge all residents to self-isolate whenever possible.
"The coronavirus cases are steadily on the incline, and the only way to mitigate that is for all of us to exercise social distancing and self-isolation whenever possible."
Hogan said drive-through windows will remain open, and some restaurants that previously relied mainly on dine-in patrons are working to set up curbside services as well as delivery service to certain points.
"They're looking for points out in the county and the community where they can deliver," he said. "I just got off the phone with Ken Strickland at Strick's Bar-B-Q, and they are looking for areas where people can come and meet them to pick up their orders.
"And then of course, the Grubhub and Waitr services are online, so we strongly encourage any of those opportunities to help our area businesses succeed during this difficult time."
Hogan said he believes the self-isolation and other measures taken by community members have been helping to keep down the number of coronavirus cases.
"The numbers aren't doubling like they said every three days," he said. "They are on the increase, and they're going to continue to increase, they say, to mid-May or as far out as early June.
"But anything that we can do as a community – we've risen up before during (Hurricane) Katrina and these local tornadoes. Now is the time to take it upon ourselves as individuals to isolate ourselves as much as possible and help mitigate the number of cases."
Woullard said the coronavirus epidemic is especially tricky because those affected can't always see its effects, as opposed to a disaster like Hurricane Katrina.
"Until it affects you personally, people really don't understand the impact," he said. "But if we can get that out today, that even though people can't see it, the danger is still there.
"And they're going to have to take actions on themselves – the government can only do so much; it's incumbent that they protect themselves. (Everybody) needs to help everybody around them understand that this is serious, and that they can affect someone else without them even being sick. If we take the necessary precautions, it will take care of itself, but we have to self-contain and lock ourselves away from one another."
That includes staying away even from church, where many congregations are transitioning to online services. Woullard, who serves as pastor at Shady Grove Baptist Church in Hattiesburg, took the opportunity Saturday to speak directly to the faith community for their help in spreading the word about social distancing and isolation.
"The faith community has always been leaders in our community, and we've always come to them during crisis – for prayer and also leadership," Woullard said. "I'm asking that you would be the leaders in this situation, because your parishioners are going to do what they believe and what the pastors ask them to do.
"So we're asking that you limit the gatherings and go to faith streaming, on the website, on Facebook – however you have to do it electronically to keep people from getting together. We're asking faith-based leaders to please lead your people away from gatherings, because by the time you realize the seriousness of it, it is too late. I know you love your people and you don't want anything to happen to them, so please heed this warning, and help them to heed it also."

CHICAGO (CBS) — From digestive problems to headaches to numbness, all kinds of health problems can pop up simply from the clothes that you're wearing.
It's one thing to be fashionable. It's another to be so uncomfortable that you have to go to the doctor, CBS 2's Mary Kay Kleist reports.
"The skinny jeans in themselves are too tight sometimes," Maribel Martinez says.
Too much squeezing yourself into matchstick jeans can cause nerve compression.
Dr. John Michael Li, a neurologist at Rush University Medical Center, says that can lead to "Meralgia Paresthetica," in which a nerve running from your abdomen to your thigh is compressed by tight clothing.
"Some people get numbness, tingling," Li says.
Jamming into tight jeans can also cause abdominal discomfort, heartburn and belching. "Tight pants syndrome" happens most often when someone's waist is at least 3 inches larger than their pants size.
Cinch belts can also cause similar problems.
"The pain and discomfort, for some patients, it's very uncomfortable, and so they require medication," Li says.
If you wear body shapers, remember they're made for smoothing, not squeezing you down a full size.
And if worn too tight or for too long, some shapers can also prevent the lungs from fully inflating, reducing oxygen intake, making you feel lightheaded.
Men aren't immune from health-related problems associated with tight clothing.
The crisp combination of a dress shirt and tie can make any guy look put-together. But about seven out of 10 men buy shirts that are too small, according to a Cornell University study.
"You have your carotid vessels going up to the brain, and so sometimes people can have some restriction in blood flow," Li says.
And that can cause headaches and blurred vision. Tight shirt collars and ties can also increase muscle tension in the back and shoulders.
"There's no need to cause yourself injury to just be fashionable," Li says.
High-heeled shoes and heavy handbags can also create problems. Heels higher than two inches have been linked to bunions, hammer toes and ankle sprains. And heavy handbags worn on the shoulder can throw your back out of line.
The American Chiropractic Association recommends that women carry no more than 10 percent of their body weight in a bag.

When we posted this story in May 2016, skinny jeans were at the height of their popularity. This fall, boot-cuts and wide-leg jeans have come back into favor. But shapewear that is worn to make the body conform to a fashionable ideal is as in demand as ever. For more on the subject of underwear, be sure to read this Wednesday's post about an exhibit on underwear.
IF YOU'RE HAPPY with your skinny jeans and Spanx, go for it! But if you're looking for excuses to scale back on such constricting fashions, associated health issues abound.
Many people suffer from "tight pants syndrome"—abdominal discomfort, heartburn and belching, as Chicago's Rush University Dr. John Michael Li told CBS Miami. He said pants are often three inches too small for the person's waist. Pressure on the abdomen interferes with digestion. Tight clothes have also been blamed for blood clots as well as bladder and vaginal infections.
"Skinny jeans are meant to accentuate the way you look, not to make yourself look another way," New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University vascular surgeon Nicholas Morrissey told HealthPop. "Clothing isn't designed to give us a shape that we don't have."
For a 35-year-old British woman, tight pants caused her legs to swell until she collapsed at the side of the road and later at the hospital needed her pants cut off to release her legs. After squatting a lot during the day to help a family member move, she noticed numbness in her feet and then had trouble lifting them to walk. The diagnosis: extremely dangerous "compartment syndrome," the result of increased pressure in a confined body space usually caused when limbs are crushed in massive construction accidents or during earthquakes.
As for "low-rise" pants, they can compress nerves in the hips, causing burning, tingling and numbness in the legs due to a condition called meralgia paresthetica, a nerve disorder like carpal tunnel syndrome. A teenager who wore shapewear under her soccer uniform until she felt numbness in her thigh and persistent abdominal pain was diagnosed with nerve damage caused by meralgia paresthetica.
The cause: pressure on the nerve that supplies sensation to the upper thighs. Meralgia paresthetica symptoms often occur on only one side of the body and can also be caused by nerve damage due to diabetes or seat belt injuries. Tight pants can also limit mobility of the hip joints, putting strain on the joint capsules and on the spine.
While reluctant to "Spanx-shame anyone," Elizabeth Enochs on Bustle quotes physicians saying shapewear can cause nerve impingement and decreased circulation. And high-waisted shapewear that cover your whole abdomen can affect digestion and lead to bloating, gas and acid reflux.
Any synthetic material worn next to the skin, especially when it's tight, can irritate the "lady bits," according to Bustle. Wearing yoga pants all day—as well as tight underwear—can raise the risk of yeast and bacterial infections, caused when heat and moisture from your body as well as sweat remain trapped in the material and create good conditions for these to grow. Urinary tract infections, which can affect any part of the urinary tract, result when bacteria multiply in the urine and move into the bladder or kidney. Cystitis, a common UTI, inflames the bladder in response to chronic pressure or when yeast or fecal bacteria travel up the urethra.
"Super-tight jeans can push the fabric of your underwear all the way up into your crack, which transfers fecal bacteria from your butt toward your urethra and vagina," Ob/Gyn professor Rebecca Amaru at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City told Cosmopolitan. "The rubbing itself could cause inflammation and break the skin, which makes it even easier for bacteria to get into your system."
Cosmo suggests alternating between skinny jeans and looser-fitting bottoms—to "give your immune system a chance to clear out any bacteria that gets into your urinary tract during skinny jean days"—and warns that bacterial UTIs can be cured only with antibiotics, so see a physician ASAP.
Some women are genetically predisposed to UTIs while, for others, a series of infections can lead to chronic, repeating UTIs. An aggregated review of studies on cranberry juice concluded that it did not significantly reduce the incidence of UTIs.
While these may seem like extreme cases, wearing tight clothing is related less to health and more to fashion because what is compressed in one area will try to pop out somewhere else. So, when you've nailed the fitted look, it's wise to change into something looser when you can.

You know when you're bloated; your stomach starts to balloon and you get that "stuffed" uncomfortable feeling. It's easy to assume our food is to blame, but when there's no rich meal to point the finger at, it's worth considering other lifestyle factors.
Here are some unexpected reasons that may have you feeling the bloat.
Skinny Jeans
It may sound odd at first, but wearing tight pants can give you a sense of bloating due to the pressure on your abdomen. As your stomach naturally relaxes and contracts throughout the day, wearing constrictive clothing—like skinny jeans—makes stomach pressure increasingly noticeable and uncomfortable. Instead, opt for looser fitting clothes especially when you know you're in for a rich meal.
We already know stress has negative effects, but did you know it's also closely tied to your gut health? Stress signals slow down the blood flow to your digestive system which can leave you backed up and bloated. We can't avoid stress altogether, but it's worth looking into practices that could help you best manage it, such as exercise, getting enough sleep or taking up yoga.
Sedentary lifestyle
Desk jobs require many of us to sit for extended periods of time on a daily basis. Excessive sitting or lying down after a meal causes your GI tract to slow down which stalls the digestive process and can aid the onset of bloating. Taking a walk after a meal allows the digestive tract to move food through your stomach at a faster rate which in turn, will help to get things moving.
We've all heard of the acronym FODMAP, but what does it mean? FODMAPs are food groups that get fermented by gut bacteria and can cause digestive symptoms like gas to build up. Cutting down on these foods––think dairy, wheat, lentils, onions—may ease your uncomfortable digestive issues and reduce bloating.
Eating too fast
When we eat too fast it's easy for excess air to be swallowed which can cause your stomach to balloon. Try to remove yourself from common distractions (cue: computers + mobile) when it's meal time. Not only will this help you become more aware of how fast you're eating, but when you chew your food properly, it helps improve your digestion.
Chewing Gum
Similar to eating quickly, when you chew gum, you could be swallowing air that can cause a build up of gas in the abdomen. Many types of gum also contain artificial sweeteners which can contribute to bloating. If you're an avid gum chewer but also find you bloat easily, try cutting back or switching from a sugar-free option to see if this may be the cause of your stomach discomfort.
The health dangers of wearing the wrong belt
Lower back pain, heartburn, rashes and constipation: can be wearing the wrong belt cause all these health problems?
Wearers sometimes have no idea some of their most common health issues come from the belt they put on. The wrong size may be the most obvious reason for pain, heartburn and discomfort. But did you know the manufacturing process and the buckle might play a role in getting rashes and other allergic reactions?
Here is what you.re risking when wearing a bad quality belt, and how to easily avoid any of the 100% preventable health problems it might cause.
Wrong measure: Wearing a Belt that's Too Tight
Even though a belt that's too tight doesn't look good and can be uncomfortable, wearing one can also put your health at risk. Here are the health issues you expose yourself when wearing a belt that's too tight:
1. Heartburn (Acid reflux)
Heartburn (acid reflux) is the most common problem caused by wearing a belt that's too tight.
The explanation is simple: a tight belt puts pressure against your stomach, causing acid to go back into your throat. The result is a burning sensation in the stomach, chest and throat and a bitter, acidic taste in your mouth.
A medical study carried in Glasgow (UK) researched if wearing your belt too tight can even cause throat cancer. The study showed a link between wearing tight belts and throat cancer, caused by acid reflux. However, the NHS has dismissed the study quickly, because it was unnecessary alarmist. The experiment was carried out on only 24 volunteers, on a short term period with interpretable results.
2. Abdominal pain
Using a tight belt can disturb the digestive flow, slowing down the whole process. Pressure makes it difficult for gas and food to move down, which often leads to bloating, pain and constipation.
3. Lower Back and Spinal Pain
Research has shown that increased pressure in the abdomen can cause stiffness in the spine and stress on the back. If the belt is too tight and low riding, it causes nerve compression in the back.
A tight belt may also affect your centre of gravity, as well as increasing pressure on the knee joints.
4. Leg Tingling and Numbness
Not only can tight belts be uncomfortable (especially after a big meal), but they can cause burning pain, numbness, sensitivity at a light touch and tingling in the legs. This condition is known as meralgia paresthetica.
The cause is exactly what a tight belt would do: put pressure on a nerve which runs from your abdomen to your lower outer thigh. The condition is common in people who carry things on their hips or wear tight belts and clothing.
5. Reproductive System Damage
Tight belts affect the reproductive function for men and women alike. The reduced air access and increased temperature, also known as 'heat castration', overheats genitals and increases humidity and the risk of infectious diseases.
6. Immune System Damage
Applying pressure on your abdomen with a belt can complicate the immune's system normal way of functioning.
Blood vessels below the belly button take care of the lymphatic drainage. If the belt is too tight on the waist, it slows down the lymph flow, which then directly interferes with the immune system.
On top of this, vital internal organs can suffer from insufficient blood supply.
The solution is simple: remember that, after a meal, the stomach needs to relax. Putting pressure on it with a belt is likely to cause pain. Try loosening the belt after meals and you will reduce the risk of any of these problems.
Allergies to Belt buckles and Fabrics
1. Allergies to Metal Belt Buckles
People often experience a rash when wearing belts with big buckles. This condition is known as belt buckle rash and takes place when the person is allergic to certain metal objects that contain nickel. Nickel is one of the most common cause for allergic contact dermatitis and is commonly used in the production of cheap belt buckles.
When sensitive skin comes in contact with the irritant metal, it turns red, gets blisters and can break if it.s exposed to the offending material for too long. Some people have tried coating the belt buckle with clear nail polish and even using different types of fabric or leather to cover the metal part. This measure helps to avoid skin contact on a short term, but could prove inefficient in the long run.
This is why it.s best to avoid metals that aren.t hypoallergenic and might be inappropriate for your skin.
Belts without nickel in their buckles may be worth looking up.
2. Fabric Chemicals
If you don.t know where and how your belt was produced, you might be experiencing exposure to belts who have been chemically treated or produced with cheap leather substitutes.
Always find out what is the type of material used in the manufacturing process. A report from Greenpeace detailed the toxic chemicals used in clothes from fast fashion chains. According to Greenpeace, "Many chemicals that are used in the dying and processing of fabrics can become hormone disrupting and even cancer-causing when they break down in nature, and those chemicals are being dumped into rivers right near the factories."
Buy locally sourced accessories, and seek out manufacturers whose production practices are transparent.
All these problems can be easily avoided by taking some elementary preventive steps, the simplest being: loosen up! Let your belt out a few notches, and always buy your belts from a local manufacturer.
Belts From OZ is a family owned business from Melbourne, Australia. We manufacture and sell high-quality genuine leather belts and a range of enameled and plain pewter belt buckles. We do not use any cheap substitutes, only real genuine Australian and Italian leather.
Yes. A tight belt or waistband is like a tourniquet around your gut, disrupting the flow of your digestive system. "Tight-fitting pants increase abdominal pressure, making it difficult for gas and food to move downward," says Russell Yang, M.D., Ph.D., a professor of gastrointestinal and liver diseases at the Keck School of Medicine at USC. Stomach acid goes back up, and you're more likely to suffer heartburn and acid reflux. A tight belt or waist also magnifies bowel discomfort and stomachaches. There was even a theory that tight belts contributed to rising esophageal cancer rates–suspicious Europeans were blaming a societal shift to belts from suspenders–but a new Swedish study debunks that idea. You should be able to comfortably slide two stacked fingers between your waistband and skin. When buying pants, remember, "a size 36 isn't the same at every store," says Davide Cotugno, of the Custom Tailors and Designers Association of America. "Manufacturers use different cuts, so pants can fit 2 inches bigger or smaller." Try everything on.
Tight Stomach
Some common causes of tight stomach include the following:
Indigestion can be caused by a variety of triggers. Many of them are related to lifestyle and include:
- overeating or eating too quickly
- consuming too much caffeine or alcohol
- smoking
- anxiety
- certain medications
Other symptoms that may accompany indigestion include:
- uncomfortable fullness during or after a meal
- a burning sensation in the upper abdomen
- nausea
- belching
While indigestion can be caused by other digestive diseases — such as pancreatitis or celiac disease — most cases can be treated with lifestyle changes and medications.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
IBS is a group of intestinal symptoms that may include stomach tightening. Other symptoms of IBS may include:
- cramping
- abdominal pain
- gas
- constipation
- diarrhea
IBS can often be managed with dietary and lifestyle changes. In some cases, medication may be necessary.
Constipation results when stool remains in the colon too long and becomes hard and difficult to pass. A poor diet is typically the cause of constipation. Other symptoms of constipation may include:
- fewer than three bowel movements a week
- passing hard, dry stools
- straining or pain during bowel movements
- a feeling of fullness, even after having a bowel movement
- experiencing a rectal blockage
Constipation can typically be treated by making dietary changes, such as consuming adequate amounts of water and fiber. Supplements, probiotics, and laxatives may also help treat constipation. In more serious cases, medications are prescribed.
Food poisoning
Food poisoning occurs when you eat contaminated, toxic, or spoiled food. Beyond stomach tightening, it's typically accompanied by the following symptoms:
- abdominal cramps
- diarrhea
- vomiting
- loss of appetite
- mild fever
- weakness
- nausea
- headaches
Most cases of food poisoning can be treated at home with rest, proper hydration, and over-the-counter medications. In severe cases, hospitalization and hydration with intravenous fluids may be required.
In some cases, stomach tightening may be brought on by anxiety and what's known as a nervous stomach. Other signs of anxiety may include the following:
- nervousness, restlessness, or being tense
- feelings of danger, panic, or dread
- rapid heart rate
- rapid breathing, or hyperventilation
- increased or heavy sweating
- trembling or muscle twitching
- weakness and lethargy
Depending on the type of anxiety, treatment may range from dietary and lifestyle changes to alternative medical treatments, mental health care, or medications.
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
A woman may feel abdominal tightness as part of PMS. PMS generally occurs leading up to menstruation. Other symptoms may include:
- abdominal pain
- sore breasts
- acne
- food cravings
- constipation
- diarrhea
- headaches
- sensitivity to light or sound
- fatigue
- irritability
While PMS can't be cured, symptoms can be eased by dietary and lifestyle changes and over-the-counter pain medications. In severe cases, your doctor may prescribe medication.
If you're pregnant, stomach tightening may be normal. In early pregnancy, what you're feeling may be your ligaments stretching. Later in the pregnancy, stomach tightening could be related to contractions — either Braxton-Hicks or those that signal impending labor.
Your stomach may also feel tight as a result of your baby moving around inside the uterus. Gas may also be a culprit. Consult with your doctor about any stomach tightening you may have.
Neurologists have long known about the dangers of girdles. But until recently, when a fifteen-year-old girl came to me complaining of persistent abdominal pain and numbness in her thigh, I had no idea teens could be at risk. It turned out she had been wearing Spanx under her soccer uniform, and the snug Lycra garment had caused nerve damage in her leg, a condition called meralgia paresthetica, as well as her abdominal pain. And research suggests that tight clothing can cause all sorts of other health problems, including blood clots and bladder and vaginal infections. istockphoto
(CBS News) Wearing skinny jeans and other restrictive, tight clothing might seem like the more fashion-friendly choice, but it may come with a hefty price tag – for your health.
Fashion harmful to health? Not these 2012 trends
"When you're wearing skinny jeans to make yourself skinny that's not the point," Dr. Nicholas Morrissey, vascular surgeon with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital / Columbia University Medical Center, told to HealthPop. "Skinny jeans are meant to accentuate the way you look, not to make yourself look another way."
"Clothing isn't designed to give us a shape that we don't have, and that's where people get in trouble," he added.
What exactly can go wrong when wearing too-tight clothing? A common complaint is a numbness going down one's thigh known as meralgia paresthetica. Morrissey explained that there is a sensory nerve that comes from your pelvis that provides sensation to parts of your thigh. People who wear skinny jeans sometimes say they feel a numbness going down their leg because of the constriction. Their thigh then goes to sleep, and when they stand up, it feels like their foot isn't under them.
Morrissey said that the condition itself isn't dangerous, but if you keep having repeat episodes it can cause permanent damage.
Dr. John Michael Li, a neurologist at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, told CBS Miami that other people suffer from "tight pants syndrome," marked by abdominal discomfort, heartburn and belching from wearing those skin-tight slacks. Normally the pants are three inches too small for the person's waist.
"It's a very common problem," Dr. Orly Avitzur, medical adviser to Consumer Reports, said to HealthPop. She's frequently covered the issue for the magazine.
"When you put pressure on the abdomen, your food doesn't digest. It risks not being able to be digested properly especially for people who have reflux esophagitis, heartburn or chronic heartburn. Tight clothing can aggravate those problems," he added.
Men should be especially concerned when trying to squeeze on tight pants. Morrissey cautioned that one of the problems with wearing skinny jeans is that it can cause a testicular torsion, where one testicle gets twisted on itself. If left untreated, the torsion can cut off circulation and cause the testicle to die. While there have been reported cases of testicular torsion from tight clothing, none have got so severe that a man has lost one of his testicles. Normally the condition is so painful that people seek help pretty quickly, he said.
"Men only need one, but it would be a heck of a thing to lose one because of your jeans," Morrissey commented.
A recent survey of 2,000 British men conducted by TENA Men, which makes garments for men with bladder problems, showed that one in 10 men have had discomfort from wearing skinny jeans, the Telegraph reported. Half of those men said they had problems with their groin, while over a quarter of them had bladder trouble. One in five had a twisted testicle.
When asked why they still wore the skinny jeans, the most common survey answer was "to show I can still fit in them" and "because they look good."
"Obviously the answer is it's not worth going to a doctor, it's not worth starting along the path of lots of medical tests. If you're not comfortable, if your body is talking to you, listen because it can save you a lot of problems down the road," Avitzur advised.

Skinny jeans have been given a health warning after a 35-year-old woman had to be cut out of a pair because her calves "ballooned in size".
Doctors believe the woman developed a condition called compartment syndrome, made worse by her tight jeans.
She previously spent hours squatting to empty cupboards for a house move in Australia according to the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry.
It's rare to develop this condition from skinny jeans.
Twelve cases were talked about in the journal.

Image caption Corsets were also linked to health problems
But rummage through your wardrobe and there are other dangerous accessories waiting to cripple, strangle or squeeze you if you wear them incorrectly.
You've probably learned about women in the 18th and 19th centuries who wore corsets, often laced so tightly they caused people to pass out or even bruised internal organs.
However, plenty of modern styles can impact our health too.
High heels have been associated with corns and calluses which the NHS describes as "areas of hard thickened skin" and can be very painful.
Heels can also cause bunions, where the big toe points inward towards the other toes.
Although it is thought the condition runs in families, bunions can be made worse by shoes that don't fit properly. The pain can be so bad that you may need surgery.
Image caption This is what a bunion looks like, now you know
Wearing heels can also make some back conditions worse as they increase pressure on the spine.
The College of Podiatry has warned employers, such as airlines and some shops, not to insist female staff wear heels because they can cause so many problems.
Wearing heels for longer than six months can cause the calf muscle to shorten and tighten permanently, which forces the knees and back to compensate.
Women who wear heels or badly-fitting trainers could also be putting themselves at risk of arthritis.
According to a study from the Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, women aged 20 to 29 are most at risk of high-heel related injuries.
Zip flies
Stop concentrating for one second while zipping your fly and you can find yourself in a very painful situation.
A study of zip injuries over eight years showed that among adult men, zips were the most frequent cause of penis injuries.
Between 2002 and 2010, more than 17,500 patients had to go to accident and emergency departments with the problem in the US.
Tight shirt collars and neckties
One small study suggested that men who wear ties too tightly could be at a greater risk of Glaucoma.
It's thought this is because they are restricting blood flow to the brain. Tight ties can also restrict movement, causing tension in the muscles of the back according to a study of workers in a South Korean Journal.
Earrings and flesh tunnels
Image caption An extreme example of ear-stretching or 'flesh tunnels'
Aside from the danger of wearing earrings while playing sport (they can catch and cause your earlobes to tear) wearing heavy earrings can cause ear lobes to sag over time.
There has been a rise reported in ear lobe surgery with people wanting doctors to correct their "flesh tunnels".
There is a point of no return when lobes have become so stretched that reconstructive surgery is necessary.
G-string underwear can damage the skin and cause infections.
If you wear pants that are too tight or that are badly-stitched the friction can cause genital irritation and lead to infections.
Tight pants
For women, overly tight pants or jeans can lead to fungal infections like Thrush.
Experts have also warned against wearing control underwear in a size too small saying they can cause acid reflux and heartburn, as well as making you need the toilet more.
Image caption Spanx: modern day corsets?
One neurologist wrote a blog about a 15-year-old football player who was referred to her "because of numbness, tingling, and discomfort in her left thigh that had bothered her for a few weeks" because of this type of underwear.
The girls in the team had been wearing them under their loose soccer shorts while they played.
For men, there's been some suggestion that tight underwear or jeans can affect sperm count because testicles get too hot to allow the sperm to mature.
Doctors treating male fertility problems are told to consider how much people drink, smoke and take drugs as well as if they wear tight pants.

There are a lot of things that can go wrong with your vagina. From yeast infections to toxic shock syndrome, problems range from straight up uncomfortable to flat out dangerous if you're not treating your lady parts with care. So naturally, we got a little nervous when we heard that the clothes we wear might be unknowingly wrecking havoc down there.
If you search the Internet to find out what causes yeast infections or other ailments like bacterial vaginosis, chances are you've stumbled upon the notion that wearing tight pants can cause some issues.
Does this mean you have to give up your skinny jeans to avoid an obnoxious itch? We asked someone whose job it is to keep vaginas healthy.
Tight pants can definitely irritate the lady bits, but usually the problem only seems like an infection.
The biggest problem with tight pants, especially jeans, is that they can rub up against the vulva and cause irritation. "Some women have more sensitivity," Tami Rowen, M.D., an ob/gyn at UCSF Medical Center specializing in sexual health concerns, tells SELF. "Tight pants rubbing and putting pressure can cause irritation." This can lead to symptoms that look very similar to an infection, like itchiness, redness, and irritation. But what's really happening is that the skin is inflamed. "I'll do a biopsy, and it comes down to that something is irritating the skin tissue," Rowen explains. "The biopsy shows inflammation that just shouldn't be there." Some people may mistake this irritation for infection, which is why it's important to see your gyno instead of trying to self-treat.
Chances are slim, though, that your skinny jeans themselves will cause an overgrowth of yeast or bacteria. Theoretically, however, they could be one small part of the larger equation. "You could, in theory, say yes," that tight pants may increase your risk, Rowen says. They decrease breathability, helping trap heat and moisture in your vagina, which can promote an environment where yeast and bacteria thrive. It makes sense. But what you have on underneath those jeans is more important.
"For women with chronic yeast or bacteria infections, something is clearly disturbing the pH of the vagina, so we do look at what kind of detergent they're using or underwear they're wearing," she says. Underwear made of synthetic materials traps moisture, decreasing the air flow in that area. When you pair the two together, it could potentially make a greater impact that either factor itself. (Underwear made of wicking materials, like polyester, is good for a very sweaty workout, but not necessarily everyday use.)
So, what can you do to keep your vagina happy when you're squeezing into your favorite pants?
If you suffer from irritation, Rowen says it may be worth switching to a skirt for a little bit or at least pants that don't cause friction, to see if it helps. All women, but especially those prone to irritation or yeast or bacterial infections, should wear plain cotton underwear and change it often. "Once a day should be enough, but if you're having excessive discharge, you should be changing it more frequently or using a panty liner and replacing it when it gets near full." If you're experiencing recurrent yeast or bacterial infections, or simply don't know your diagnosis, see your doctor to figure out the underlying cause. As easy as it is to point fingers when you're uncomfortable and desperate for an explanation, it's probably not your Levi's' fault.
Plus! Skinny Jeans and Your Skin:

Maybe it's the fact that jeans are a casual style, but when jeans don't fit right you end up looking extra sloppy.
I've always preached that getting clothes that fit properly will solve 90% of your style problems.
Today we're going to go over how your jeans should fit. Here's a bit of a bonus, you can apply these tips to any other type of pants, like chinos.
What Most Guys Get Wrong: Going Too Big
After helping thousands of guys with their style, I've come to the conclusion that most guys are afraid of wearing clothes that are too tight.
They don't want to be "uncomfortable", so they overcompensate by wearing clothes that are too large because it's not "constricting."
Why is this a bad look? Because you lose the shape of your body in that volume of fabric. It makes your legs look bigger and fatter than they actually are. That's never a good look. What you end up with is the dreaded dad jean look that even George Clooney can't pull off.
Think "Fitted", Not "Skin Tight"
For some of you, wearing clothes that fit you properly might feel a little alien. I think it will help by debunking the myth that roomier clothes are more comfortable.
Clothes that actually fit you are going to feel more comfortable they're so much more functional. When clothes properly fit your body, it's easier to move. You're not fighting all that fabric.
Think about it this way, if you put on a pair of boots that are 2 sizes too big, you could call it "roomy" and not constricting. But how well do think you can run in them?
I don't like to use the words "skinny fit" or "tight" because it comes with certain connotations. I prefer to use the words fitted or tailored. But even that can be a little confusing.
So I have a few rules of thumb when it comes to jeans.
- If you need a belt to hold up your jeans, it's too big. This goes for all pants.
- If you can trace the outline of your leg shape and butt (see right), it's too tight. If your jeans look like denim printed yoga tights, they're way too tight.
Those are some solid rules of thumbs. Now let's get into the details.
How Your Jeans Should Fit: Point by Point
Overall fit: Your jeans should fit your waist without needing a belt. It should fit close to your body but not be skin tight. For most guys, you want to go with a slight taper in the leg, which helps prevent a bell-bottom look. The image above left is a great standard to go by, even if you don't have the same body type as him. It's not too tight where you can see the outline of his leg shape. It's not too baggy where his pants are falling, or his legs are unusually wide looking. It's just right.
Waist: Should comfortably sit on your waist without needing a belt. If you need a belt, it's too big. If you can't button it up, it's obviously too tight.
Butt/Seat: It should hug your butt slightly without feeling constricting. (Image above, right) If you can't lift up your legs or squat without feeling like your jeans might rip, it's too tight.
If you can grab a handful of denim from butt area, or confidently smuggle a football thanks to the extra room, it's too big/baggy.
Thigh: The trickiest part for a lot of guys.
For this, I recommend "The Pinch Test"
Stand relaxed and pinch the fabric around your thigh horizontally between your thumb and forefinger. You want to pinch around a finger tip worth (.5"-1") of fabric.
Any less, it's too tight. Anymore, it's a bit too baggy.
Calves: Use "The Pinch Test" the same way you did on your thighs.
Length/Inseam: You want a bit of a break when it comes to your jeans, like the image above. Some men like to wear jeans super straight with no break. I think this looks strange for the most part. Too much stacking looks sloppy and is best avoided.
Also, keep in mind you might want to allow a bit of extra length if you want to cuff them and show off some selvedge. Anywhere from .25-1".
It's all personal preference, but I go for more subtley. I like no cuff to a small, .25″ cuff. Anything more can start looking ridiculous.
Don't Forget: Not All Cuts Are Created Equal
The guidelines above apply to all men, regardless if you're 5'6" and 230lbs or 6' with a 28" waist.
In order to get that kind of fit though, you have to make sure you're buying the right cut for your body type.
You don't know how many guys I've worked with who complain that jeans never fit when they go shopping, and I find out that they're shopping in the skinny fit section when they look like they should be over at the big and tall.
And while everything seems to be "skinny fit" these days, there's actually a method to the madness. Here's how to decode your local denim section:
Skinny fit: For guys with skinny thighs and skinny calves. True skinny fit jeans are meant for guys who basically have pencils for legs, they're roughly the same straight, slim shape from their thighs to their calves.
Best for: Guys who have really skinny legs all the way through.
Tapered fit: For guys with a bit of thigh and butt muscle, but calves smaller than their thighs, hence the tapering of the cut.
Best for: Average to Fit guys that don't have big thighs.
Straight fit: For your average guy that has a bit of muscle in him all around.
Best for: Average guys with a bit more size in their butt, thighs, and calves.
Athletic Cut: This is a relatively new cut. Basically, it's a nicely tapered fit with a lot more room in the thigh and butt area. Great for guys that don't skip leg day or larger guys who've always found that when they went up a waist size in, they were left with bell bottoms.
Best for: Athletic guys with large thighs, or larger guys in general
Boot cut: Jeans that have more room below the knee/calf area to accommodate cowboy boots. Unless you're rocking jeans in Texas, you don't need to be concerned with these.
Best for: Cowboys
Relaxed cut: From my experience, relaxed cut is what athletic cut used to be, but without as much taper. I generally prefer going for athletic cuts over relaxed now, and lot of brands have phased "relaxed" out in favor of the term "athletic".
Best for: Athletic guys with large thighs, or larger guys in general
Final Thoughts: Finding Your Perfect Pair
Even with these guidelines, keep in mind that each brand has their own in-house definitions. Just look at Levi's, who has a "Regular Straight", "Original Straight", and "Slim Straight"!
I don't recommend just purely going off the sizing tags or labels like "skinny" or "straight". They're good starting points, but it's going to take some trial and error.
Some final recommendations:
- Use sizing and labels as a starting point.
- Use the "Pull 3" Trick: When shopping in person, grab your size, then one size up and one size down. This will save you a lot of time going in and out of dressing rooms.
- When shopping online, you can do something similar. Order your size, one size up, one size down. Make sure you read the stores return policy. (Also keep in mind that many online stores do not accept returns on sale items, so I don't recommend doing this on sale items.)
- Use the tips I listed above as well as the "Pinch Trick" to find the right size.
What You Need to Know About Skinny Pant Syndrome
It may sound silly, but Skinny Pant Syndrome really is a thing, and due to the popularity of tight "skinny" jeans, it's becoming more prevalent than ever before. So, what is this condition, and what can you do to protect yourself from it?
Skinny Pant Syndrome? What's That?
Skinny Pant Syndrome, officially called meralgia paresthetica, is a very real medical condition that causes numbness of pain in the outer thigh that occurs as the result of nerve injury rather than injury to the thigh. The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, which is located on the front of the thigh, is the nerve that is injured in cases of Skinny Pant Syndrome.
In the past, meralgia paresthetica was seen primarily in obese individuals who work tight belts and spent a lot of time sitting. This can cause compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve between the hip bones and the belt. Patients who suffer from this condition typically experience numbness, pain and tingling on the front of the thigh.
Now, thanks to the growing popularity of "skinny" jeans, we're seeing an increasing number of thin young adults with Skinny Pant Syndrome.
How It's Treated
Fortunately, skinny pant syndrome is usually easy to cure. First and foremost, if you are experiencing pain, numbness or tingling in the outer thigh, stop wearing tight belts and pants immediately, and switch to something with a bit more room. Next, call your chiropractor.
When you visit Denver South Chiropractic for your initial consultation, we will listen to your concerns and get to work diagnosing your problem and developing an effective treatment plan. If you have Skinny Pant Syndrome, we will likely adjust your hip bones to get them in proper alignment and prescribe a series of stretches.
You should never let fashion take a toll on your health. Nerve damage, even when it's caused by pants that are simply too tight, is serious, and when left untreated, further complications could arise. If you are experiencing tingling, numbness or pain in your other thigh, ditch the skinny jeans and call Denver South Chiropractic today at 303-757-7272 to schedule a consultation with a Denver chiropractor.

Either you are moving your home or your office or any other item, one thing is for sure and that is all the problems that you face in such a situation. Moving can be a headache, it is too much work and if you are not good at packing and arranging. In such a situation, it is best to hire an experienced moving service. There are many moving services available, for which you can look over internet also, that provide a good service and are respected in their field. For a good moving service provider you can go here.
Still hiring a mover doesn't mean just hiring anyone but it means that you go for the best because if you are paying for a service then it is not too much to ask if you ask about their earlier jobs, working methods etc. Here are few things that you should look for when you hire a moving service:
- Work experience: First thing that you need to know about your movers is that how much is their work experience. Look on their website for the reviews and ratings by customers, their work experience etc. It is important that you do check their work background because it will help you in understanding which one you are going to select for moving your stuff. Either it's a job for house or an office it is equally important in both cases to look for these things.
- Working method: Working method here means that how do your movers work. How much staff they put on job, how do they handle workload, how do they manage time, do they pack and unpack for you etc. are some questions that you can directly ask to the moving service provider without hesitation. Look for that moving service which provides you with best service with their working methods.
- Movers insurance: Sometimes your items that you are moving with the help of your movers can be damaged, broken or destroyed due to mishandling or any other reason and in such a scenario it is better to have formerly asked about the questions about the reimbursement regarding the damaged item. Your moving service should provide you with insurance in case of any damage to any of your items and asking all the questions regarding this type of situation is better than having an argument later with no grounds to stand on.
- Locating service: Some movers provide you with real time tracking of your fleet so that you can just relax and rest while the movers do their work. Ask your mover about questions regarding the locating service.
- Moving charges: Sometimes the movers add some extra charges on some things and you get to know it later at the time of payment, which can really be an embarrassing moment so it is much better to have your movers formerly asked about all the terms regarding the charges you have to pay. Before moving the items, you should ask the movers to look at your stuff and tell you about the cost of moving to save you from embarrassment later.

"I jointed Twist Gym on February 2014 and It has been life changing experience for me. I haven't been in any other gyms before, but I think this is the best place to exercise. I lost 20kg and gone down from clothing size 14/16 to 8/10 and I look and feel better then ever. I was surprised to realise not carrying so much weight gives you endless energy. What I like best in the Gym is the atmosphere and the instructors. They are all very professional, patient and friendly. Also each day is different, we never repeat the same exercises so is it interesting and challenging all the time. Twist Gym changed not only the way I look, but also the way I feel about myself and remained me "If you set your heart on something you will achieve it". Don't give up. – from Stephanie….member since 2013….
"The Twist gym is a unique gym: you are personal trained at all times and as a result someone like me who had never been on a treadmill or exercised in 30 years, can now run 3 miles nonstop and has a body to be proud of. The trainers are highly qualified and tailor my programmes to suit me, ensuring that I improve my performance all the time. After 6 months of regular attendance at the Twist gym my blood pressure and sugar levels are dramatically lower and the workouts together with healthy eating have enable me to lose 20 kgs. The Twist gym has a wonderful sense of camaraderie and friendliness and I cannot wait to get there each morning at 6.15 am to do my workout before a busy day at the office." Neville (kingswood member 4 years).

Very pleased as all of my goals were achieved. Laila Rouass (Actress, currently starring in Strictly Come Dancing)." Laila Rouass
" Since February I have enjoyed three mornings a week working out at The Twist gym, a very friendly gym with first-class instructors who look after you for your full hours workout." John Purkiss – Joined August 2007. John Purkiss
" Good instructions and personal attention. Much more friendly than a large impersonal gym. Up-to-date equipment and keen instructors." Valerie Ives – Joined August 2007. Valerie Ives
" I joined the Twist gym 3 years ago, never before having set foot inside a gym because I disliked the impersonal and random nature of the instruction. At the Twist gym you are looked after and nurtured at each and every session and are helped to achieve personal goals, whether that means losing weight, toning or climbing Mount Kilimanjaro! All the current trainers are very friendly and approachable and always strive to get the best out of you, whilst at the same time they are respectful of your "not so good" days or injuries. I am a definite fan of the Twist gym and hope to remain so, well into old age!" Deborah Stevens
