Skin scars

Stretch marks.



This time I will talk about a theme that women worry about and give them something of fear that someday appear in their body because it will not be perfect (stereotypes of ridiculous beauty, because there is no perfection).

What are stretch marks?

Stretch marks are lines in the skin that usually appear by breaking the elastic fibers of the skin. When the skin is stretched the fibers with less elasticity are broken creating marks. At first the stretch marks are pinkish then reddish and finally white. Stretch marks are basically the reflection of the separation of the skin.
 


They commonly appear on the belly, breasts, buttocks, hips, thighs, arms.

Why do they appear?

The most common causes are:

  • Pregnancy: It is due to the increased volume of the belly, which causes the skin to stretch too much. 
  • Sudden Weight Changes: They may appear to gain or lose weight quickly because the skin does not have enough time to adjust to the new condition. 
  • Growth and hormonal changes: It often happens in adolescence.  
  • General skin health: Dry skin combined with poor nutrition that does not provide all the nutrients to the skin makes the skin more prone to developing stretch marks. 
  • Rapid muscle development: If the muscles develop very large and very fast, the skin could break creating stretch marks. 
  • By the use of some medicines: Especially those topical medicines with cortisone can cause problems in the skin and appear stretch marks. 

Although the stretch marks appear without warning, it is recommended to prevent their appearance to keep the skin in good condition, through good hydration and good nutrition. This will make the skin more flexible and, given the possible physical changes, it will be able to stretch without causing the rupture of the fibers of the skin.

Oh and pay attention, stretch marks not only appear in women, men are not exempt, because they can also have them, usually stretch marks appear on the thighs, knees, lower back and the inner face of the arms.  

There are currently some treatments to reduce the appearance of stretch marks, such as the use of lasers, creams or oils to hydrate the skin.

I can tell you that we should not feel distressed or scared by these skin scars, remember that no one is perfect and that all people can have them even the supermodels.

Political fanaticism.

  Political fanaticism.    In recent years, a very latent phenomenon that has been growing dangerously and vertiginously, in a context of high polarization; this distorter is presented as an enemy of electoral conscience and a healthy and mature democracy, it is political fanaticism.    But let's start by defining fanaticism:    According to the definition of the Royal Spanish Academy : it is an “excessive passion and tenacity in the defense of beliefs or opinions, especially religious or political ones”.    For Voltaire: “Fanaticism is to superstition what delirium is to fever, what rage is to anger. He who has ecstasies, visions, who takes dreams for realities and his imaginations for prophecies is a novice fanatic with great hopes; he may soon get to kill for God's sake."    Therefore, fanaticism is identified by the desire to impose their ideas, despise those who are different, be based on a series of thoughts that ar...
