health & wellness ask dr. dunn by Maren dunn big sky weekly health writer How do you prevent and treat frostbite during montana’s frigid winters? - margerie, from texas It’s wintertime in Russia, 1812. Napoleon’s army is retreating from Moscow, crossing frigid rivers and snowy valleys. The troops survive by building fires at night and marching by day in subzero temperatures. Enter baron Dominique Jean Larrey, Napoleon’s military surgeon. He noted that troops suffered injuries due to cold that worsened with each episode of refreezing. while historically known as the pioneer of battlefield first aid, Jean Larrey was also the first to described frostbite. when body tissues are exposed to below-freezing air, water or metal for a prolonged period of time, the fluid between the cells of those tissues freezes. As this takes place, the blood vessels in the area constrict reducing the blood flow to the area. ultimately, these cells die. The dying cells set off an immune system reaction causing inflammation and further damage. If a frostbite injury thaws but undergoes another DPHHS reports increase in influenza activity Officials say it's not too late to vaccinate HELENA – Local and state public health officials are reporting an increase in influenza activity and reminding Montanans that it’s not too late to vaccinate. Influenza season typically peaks in february and can last as late as May, according to Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services Director Anna whiting Sorrell. "we are encouraging people who have not yet been vaccinated to get vaccinated now." Each year, millions of people are infected with influenza, more than 200,000 people are hospitalized, and thousands die from its complications. Public health officials stress that every Montanan aged 6 months and older should receive the influenza vaccine each year. Getting vaccinated protects the person getting the vaccine and the community. The influenza vaccine is available in two forms: a shot and a nasal spray. The nasal spray is for use in healthy people ages 2 to 49 years who aren’t pregnant. Anyone can get influenza, but some are at greater risk for serious episode of freezing, the wound becomes more severe. frostbite, like burns, can be divided into two categories: superficial and deep. As with burns, a frostbite injury can worsen quickly if not treated properly. Rewarming is the primary method of treatment and outside the hospital setting, this can be accomplished with warm water or body heat. Do not rub frostbitten areas and try not to move them. Also, do not rewarm if the affected body part will undergo refreezing before receiving permanent rewarming, as this will worsen the injury. In the hospital, rewarming is done quickly while other methods are used to restore blood flow. Like burns, dressing changes and frequent cleaning of the wounds are performed. Sometimes amputation is necessary. complications. These can include pneumonia, hospitalization and even death. Getting the flu vaccine is especially important for those at greater risk for complications. People at greater risk include: • Children younger than 5 years old, especially those younger than 2 • Pregnant women 'when it comes to frostbite, the best management is prevention. when planning a cold weather outing, watch weather reports, dress appropriately and have an emergency plan in case you become detained." • People with certain medical conditions like asthma, diabetes, or heart and lung disease • People 65 years and older It's also important to get the vaccine if you care for or live with anyone at greater risk. It is especially important for those caring for infants younger than 6 months to get vaccinated because infants less than 6 months old cannot be vaccinated. Vaccines are available from your doctor, local health department, and at many retail pharmacies. for more information about influenza or the vaccine, talk to your doctor or nurse, visit cdc.gov/flu or call the CDC at (800) CDC-INfO. explorebigsky.com explorebigsky.com Big Sky Weekly when it comes to frostbite, the best management is prevention. when planning a cold weather outing, watch weather reports, dress appropriately and have an emergency plan in case you become detained. Always dress in layers so wet ones can be removed. when traveling in remote areas, let someone else know your plans and make sure to eat enough calories to sustain your energy. If you think you’ve suffered frostbite, see your doctor to make sure you heal properly. Maren Dunn, D.O., is owner of Gallatin Family Medicine, a medical clinic in the Big Sky Meadow Village.

Email her at inquiries@gallatinfamilymedicine.com. gallatinfamilymedicine.com seasonal affective disorder by Megan obert big sky counseling clinic This time of year our exposure to daylight decreases until Dec. 21, the winter solstice, when daylight starts to increase again. Research indicates sunlight exposure levels can negatively impact a person’s mood, because sunlight affects serotonin levels. Serotonin, a chemical in the brain that helps regulate mood, is found to be lower in people who suffer from depression. People show higher serotonin levels on sunny days than on darker days, indicating that decreased light can increase chances of depression. If you find yourself feeling moody or depressed during winter months and happier in spring, you may be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. Almost half a million people experience this each winter between September and April. SAD occurs more frequently in women than men, and people typically start to show symptoms between ages 18 and 30. Symptoms of SAD usually build up in the late autumn and early winter and are similar to other forms of depression. They may include feelings of sadness, hopelessness, loss of energy, oversleeping, irritability, restlessness, social withdrawal and increased appetite. These symptoms can range in intensity depending on a person’s susceptibility to depression and where he or she lives. If you experience symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder, you don’t have to tough it out until spring – there are options to help elevate your mood. first, spend time outdoors in the sunlight. Participating in outdoor physical exercise will also help increase your energy and manage other symptoms of depression. In addition, making sure you’re eating nutritiously and getting enough sleep is recommended, both of which are often overlooked in terms of their importance. Another option is to purchase a phototherapy box, or light box. A light box mimics natural light from the sun and can produce the same chemical changes in your brain as sunlight. Phototherapy boxes are generally used 30 minutes a day and require you to sit near the light with your eyes open. Light therapy may be effective on its own, but in more serious cases, is most effective when combined with antidepressant medication and counseling. If you or someone you know experiences symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder and are interested in counseling, or if you have questions or concerns about SAD, the MSu Human Development Clinic is available to help.
