00:34will answer your questions about your health.
00:40So, stay tuned for the return of Pinoy M.D.
00:43Because when it comes to health, this is legit.
00:47This morning in Pinoy M.D.,
00:49a chemical that is used to clean the bathroom
00:52splashed in the eyes of a woman.
00:55How can this be avoided?
00:57When it splashed in my eyes, I was in intense pain.
01:02At that time, I panicked.
01:04I was thinking about what will happen to my right eye.
01:14Placenta.
01:15Other women eat it when they are pregnant.
01:18Is it beneficial or dangerous?
01:21I researched on social media.
01:23I also watched their podcasts.
01:25Some of them are traditional,
01:27they are old, old, old.
01:29They do that.
01:30Others, they don't know.
01:32They feed it to their grand-grandparents.
01:34They do that.
01:35Actress Marie Toni Fernandez has a workout routine.
01:39Stay tuned.
01:40Working out and eating healthy everyday
01:45is a lifestyle.
01:46It's not just for now,
01:49to hit a certain weight or whatever.
01:52It's not.
01:54That's why I'm like this up to now.
01:56I'm almost 50 years old
01:58and I have a pretty good body considering
02:01because I treat it well.
02:02For information on health,
02:04you should know
02:18Sparkling clean.
02:19That's what we want to achieve in our bathrooms.
02:23But what if when you clean it,
02:27you are in danger?
02:36If the cleaning of the bathroom that is said to be dangerous
02:39splashes in your eyes,
02:42we will know later.
02:47Meanwhile, here is our dermatologist, Doc Jean,
02:50to answer some of the health questions
02:53that you sent to our Facebook page.
02:55This is the first question for you, Doctor.
02:57Is this big pimple dangerous?
03:00That question is from Yana Celestin.
03:03Yana, thank you for your question.
03:06Looking at it, it really looks big.
03:09This is actually called congenital melanocytic nevus.
03:13It can really get bigger.
03:15If you are still young, you already have this.
03:19This is probably called congenital melanocytic nevus.
03:24There is also acquired,
03:26but if it started from birth, then this is congenital.
03:29Usually, it gets bigger as the patient gets older
03:33who has this kind of pimple.
03:36How do we treat this?
03:38It depends on the location of this mole
03:42or this pimple.
03:44Usually, when this is on the face,
03:47it's a bit of a treatment.
03:50We don't just do surgery
03:52because it might disfigure more
03:54or leave an ugly scar.
03:56I'm not really sure where this area is,
03:59but it can be surgically treated.
04:02Although this is a bit deeper
04:05compared to ordinary moles,
04:08it can be surgically treated.
04:10There is also a laser,
04:12which is called carbon dioxide laser ablation.
04:15It is gradually burned.
04:17It may require not just one session,
04:20but several sessions.
04:22The best thing about this is
04:24you go to a board-certified dermatologist
04:26so you can really decide
04:28what is the best treatment
04:30based on the location of this birthmark.
04:40What do you think?
04:41Are you perfect?
04:42You're not perfect.
04:44Do you want to know what is perfect?
04:47This.
04:48This is perfect.
04:50Who else can't fall in love
04:52with one of the most convincing actresses
04:54in the Philippine showbiz?
04:56It's none other than veteran actress
04:58Marie-Toni Fernandez.
05:00But did you know that she not only
05:02showed courage in movies and television,
05:05but also in real life?
05:08In 2001, when she started her fight
05:11against breast cancer,
05:13the treatments,
05:14changing my diet,
05:16changing the way I lived,
05:18my life was very high-stress before.
05:21So I knew that I had to make major changes
05:24in my life that would make sure
05:28that the cancer wouldn't come back
05:29when I was treated.
05:31Fast forward to 2018,
05:33Marie-Toni has been cancer-free
05:35for almost 20 years.
05:38And at 48 years old,
05:40her body is still very fit.
05:43Her arms are toned,
05:44and she has abs.
05:46Are these the two children?
05:49Going to the gym or working out
05:51and eating healthy everyday
05:54is a lifestyle.
05:55It's not just for now,
05:58to hit a certain weight or whatever.
06:01It's not.
06:02That's why I'm like this up to now.
06:05I'm almost 50 years old
06:06and I have a pretty good body
06:09because I treat it well.
06:11And speaking of healthy lifestyle,
06:13this morning,
06:14Marie-Toni will share a workout
06:16that is her secret to being fit.
06:19It's just three exercises,
06:21but the target is the whole body.
06:23That's why she can do it
06:24in just a few hours.
06:26Good morning, Kapuso.
06:27Today, we will demonstrate
06:29some exercises
06:31that you can do at home.
06:34These are called functional exercises
06:37because you can do it anywhere,
06:39anytime,
06:40with very minimal requirement
06:42of any equipment.
06:44My suggestion,
06:45at home,
06:46if you don't have plates,
06:48you can use books
06:49that are heavy
06:51or anything you have at home
06:53that you feel your body can hold.
06:56Our first exercise,
06:58by using our plates,
07:00these are called woodchops.
07:02Starting position,
07:04make sure that
07:05our feet are aligned
07:07at the shoulder level.
07:09Starting position here,
07:11and up.
07:17In this exercise,
07:19it works out the hamstrings,
07:21the glutes,
07:23the butt,
07:24the back,
07:25and shoulders.
07:26All of that,
07:27and most especially,
07:28the waistline for women.
07:30Because if you twist like that,
07:32your waistline will shrink.
07:35If this is just your first workout,
07:36you're already rich!
07:38Just do the woodchops
07:4012 times on each side.
07:44Okay, this second exercise,
07:46my trainer, Carl,
07:47and I are doing it.
07:50So Grace,
07:51we call this
07:52Maritoni's pain
07:54because it's really going to hurt,
07:57but only in the beginning.
07:58Also,
07:59it's really going to target the full body.
08:02For example,
08:03this is a book at home, right?
08:05We're going to start,
08:06just bend your knees a little,
08:08not all the way.
08:09Then, lower your book
08:11to the floor.
08:12Okay?
08:13So bend the knees,
08:14tighten the abs,
08:16and then lift that,
08:19and then do a full squat.
08:23Even if this exercise is hard,
08:25remember,
08:26no pain,
08:27no gain.
08:29So just push,
08:30and repeat
08:31That's the Maritoni's pain
08:32three times,
08:33with 12 counts each set.
08:37So the last exercise
08:39I always leave for my workouts
08:41is the plank.
08:43Why?
08:44Because this is the one
08:45that will really drain you,
08:47when you have the remaining strength
08:49in your body.
08:50This is the one
08:51that after this,
08:52you're really zero balance.
08:54So just bend your elbows,
08:56L-shape here,
08:58and then your feet,
08:59straight,
09:00and your feet together.
09:01If it's hard for you,
09:02just spread your feet.
09:04In this simple exercise,
09:06almost all the body parts
09:08get strength,
09:09including the arms,
09:11shoulders,
09:12back,
09:13and core.
09:14Can you do more?
09:17Three minutes!
09:18No!
09:19Five!
09:20Maritoni doesn't look like she's having a hard time,
09:22and she's still smiling.
09:25Hold the plank position
09:26for one minute.
09:28It's really hard,
09:29but if you do it consistently,
09:32it has a really good effect
09:34on your whole body.
09:36Actually, sometimes,
09:37when I'm lazy to go to the gym,
09:39even just this,
09:40I'm already challenged.
09:42It's already solved.
09:48Okay, so,
09:49aside from a healthy lifestyle,
09:51of course,
09:52exercising as much as possible,
09:54at least three times a week,
09:56if not more,
09:57we should also be very careful
09:59with the food we eat.
10:02Like our salad here,
10:04we have chicken,
10:05which is protein,
10:06we have eggs,
10:08hard-boiled eggs,
10:09which is also protein,
10:11and then our green spoon,
10:13which is, of course,
10:14healthy and full of fiber.
10:28Mariton's other secret
10:30for being healthy
10:31is drinking a powder drink
10:33made from barley,
10:34a type of whole-grain food.
10:38Cheers!
10:39It's said to be good
10:40for releasing toxins
10:41and free radicals in the body.
10:43And because it's rich in fiber,
10:44it's also good for those
10:46who want to lose weight.
10:49Ah, delicious!
10:58She's already 48 years old,
11:00but her body is still for a woman.
11:04That's our healthy idol,
11:05Maritony Fernandez.
11:07Let's encourage her,
11:09with discipline and trust.
11:14Question number two,
11:15Dr. Jean,
11:16what can she do
11:18to make her skin brighter?
11:20The question is from
11:21Shakira Salendab, Sabah.
11:24Alright, Shakira,
11:25I'm looking at the picture
11:27that you sent.
11:28This is called
11:29dermatographism
11:31or dermatographic urticaria.
11:34So, what is this?
11:35This can actually be
11:37because of an allergic reaction
11:39to something.
11:41It can either be
11:42parasitic infection.
11:44You might have a parasitic infection.
11:46Your immune system
11:48actually detects
11:50your skin as a foreign body.
11:53So, your immune system attacks it
11:55and it causes what's called
11:57wheels,
11:58or what's called
11:59tagulabay.
12:00Dermatographism, actually,
12:02this can actually occur
12:04when, for example,
12:05you press your hand
12:08with pressure.
12:09When it's hit,
12:10it rises.
12:12It can also be
12:13not just because of parasitism,
12:15because of other allergies.
12:17It can be food,
12:18it can be medicine,
12:20it can be stress.
12:22When we're stressed,
12:24our immune system gets confused.
12:26Suddenly, we have
12:28a lot of allergic reactions
12:30or urticaria can get worse.
12:32So, what should you do
12:34when you have this?
12:36Number one, avoid
12:38having pressure in that area.
12:40Avoid scrubbing.
12:42When you're bathing,
12:43don't scratch.
12:45Just drink antihistamine
12:47when you're scratching.
12:49And, of course,
12:50to control the inflammation,
12:51the allergic reaction
12:52from something.
12:54And, of course,
12:55put on lotion,
12:56put on steroid cream.
12:57It can also be
12:58over-the-counter steroid cream.
13:00It can be hydrocortisone.
13:02Go to your dermatologist
13:04so that you may need
13:05food sensitivity testing,
13:07food allergic testing,
13:09or environmental allergen test
13:12to know where you're reacting.
13:15Because the most important thing
13:18in urticaria is
13:20you won't have a hard time breathing.
13:22Because sometimes,
13:23not just the swelling in the skin,
13:25there's also swelling in our airways.
13:28When there's swelling in the airways
13:30and it's hard for you to breathe,
13:32you should really go to
13:34the emergency room.
13:35That could be an
13:36anaphylactic reaction.
13:38So, Shakira,
13:40go to a board-certified dermatologist
13:42so that you can understand
13:44where you're really reacting.
13:49When it comes to health,
13:51you should always be updated.
13:53Here are the health updates
13:55that you should know about.

16:40And that's our Pinoy MD
16:42Latest Health Updates.
16:43Remember,
16:44when it comes to health,
16:46you should be updated.
16:49Meanwhile,
16:50back to our Facebook question,
16:51Dr. Jean,
16:52this question is from
16:53John Mark Morales.
16:55What can we do
16:56or use
16:57to get rid of
16:58the pores on his face?
17:00It means
17:01to improve
17:02or reduce
17:03those pores.
17:05So how do we do it?
17:07Why are the pores
17:09on our skin so big?
17:11First of all,
17:13we can produce
17:15too much oil on our skin.
17:17Either because,
17:18for example,
17:19during teenage years,
17:21there's too much oil production
17:23because of the hormone androgen.
17:25It can also happen when you're stressed.
17:27You produce more sweat
17:30and these oils.
17:32And it can also be
17:34genetic.
17:36So what do we do?
17:38Sometimes,
17:39we give a natural supplement
17:41which is vitamin A
17:43to control the oil production.
17:45Also,
17:46what we can do
17:47is to do
17:48fractional ablation
17:50using lasers
17:51to reduce the pores.
17:53It's like treating acne scars.
17:55We also reduce
17:57the pores
17:58to make it smaller,
17:59produce collagen,
18:01tighten the skin,
18:02and make the pores smaller.
18:04But of course,
18:06you still need to check it first.
18:09Also,
18:10don't use too many devices
18:13like over-the-counter devices
18:15or what you hear on TikTok
18:16or on social media
18:18because it might be too strong
18:20on your skin.
18:21You'll be more affected.
18:23So go to a dermatologist
18:24to make sure
18:26what's the best treatment for you.
18:36So,
18:37are you adventurous
18:38when it comes to food?
18:43Some people
18:44eat exotic food.
18:46But this first-time mom,
18:48will you believe
18:49that what she eats
18:50after giving birth
18:51is her own
18:52placenta?
18:55Or the baby's first
18:57in the womb?
18:58So there,
19:00she has a bat choice.
19:02What does it look like?
19:05She believes
19:06that it will help
19:08her recovery.
19:11Her whole story,
19:12we'll find out later.
19:18Here in our country,
19:19when there's a baby,
19:20the elders buy...
19:30But in this viral video,
19:31uploaded 24 years ago,
19:33Ania is just 4 years old
19:34and about to give birth.
19:38This is what she looks like.
19:39Her own
19:41placenta.
19:42So there,
19:43she has a bat choice.
19:45She cooks
19:47and eats.
19:48When my placenta came out,
19:50that's the first thing
19:51I told the doctor.
19:52It's just a roll.
19:53If it's full of blood,
19:54it's okay.
19:55Don't wash it with water.
19:57It's okay.
20:00She believes
20:01that eating
20:03her own placenta
20:05or bat
20:06will help her recovery
20:08from giving birth.
20:10When I watched Kardashian,
20:12I said,
20:13they're still beautiful.
20:14And I said,
20:15maybe it's healthy.
20:16I'll recover fast.
20:19Aside from the influence
20:20of foreign celebrities,
20:21Ania also researched
20:23online.
20:24I researched
20:25on social media.
20:26I also watched
20:27their podcasts.
20:28The others are traditional,
20:30old, old, old.
20:32They do that.
20:33The others,
20:34they don't know.
20:35They feed their
20:36grand-grandparents.
20:37That's how it is.
20:40That's why
20:41when she gave birth to Umayo,
20:43her firstborn,
20:44Baby Giana,
20:46she decided
20:47to eat
20:48her own placenta.
20:49It's still small.
20:50There.
20:51It's big,
20:52but it's small.
20:53Until the time
20:54she gave birth,
20:55we were there.
20:56Of course,
20:57I secured the placenta first.
20:58I said, doc,
20:59this is what my husband
21:00requested.
21:01On their way home,
21:02almost two days
21:03after arriving at the hospital,
21:05she prepared
21:06the placenta
21:07to be cooked.
21:09Let's clean it.
21:11I cleaned it first.
21:13There.
21:14It looks like
21:15a batchoy.
21:17Then,
21:18I cooked it.
21:19Of course,
21:20I don't want it to be salty,
21:21so I added
21:22garlic,
21:23onion,
21:24and other seasonings
21:25so that when
21:26I take it,
21:27it has flavor.
21:29For Ania,
21:30at first,
21:31she admitted
21:32that she also has
21:33an allergy.
21:34But since she believes
21:35that it's good
21:36for postpartum recovery,
21:37she will continue
21:38to eat it.
21:40She also said
21:41that she's used to it.
21:43I can't say
21:44if it tastes like
21:45beef,
21:46or pork,
21:47or chicken.
21:49It's really different.
21:50It's like
21:51it's all mixed
21:52by animals.
21:53Then,
21:54it has more
21:55of a bloody taste.
21:56It's like
21:57liver
21:58or beef.
22:00The placenta
22:01is an organ
22:02that grows
22:03in the uterus
22:04when a woman
22:05gives birth.
22:08It supplies
22:09nutrients
22:10and oxygen
22:11to the baby
22:12while it's still
22:13in the uterus.
22:14It's important
22:15because
22:16that's where
22:17the exchange
22:18of nutrients
22:19and blood
22:20from the mother
22:21goes to
22:22her baby.
22:24Also,
22:25the release
22:26of waste materials
22:27from the baby
22:28goes out
22:29and back
22:30to the mother.
22:32According to Anya,
22:33even though
22:34she said
22:35in her video
22:36about eating
22:37her placenta,
22:38she was immediately
22:39prohibited from doing so.
22:41She said,
22:42don't eat
22:43your placenta.
22:44You promised me
22:45that.
22:46You promised me.
22:47Then,
22:48I was the only one
22:49who did that.
22:50I just sat there
22:51even though
22:52I thought
22:53I was going to eat it.
22:54We showed the video
22:55to the psychologist
22:56Dr. Naulgania.
22:58He said,
22:59this is the belief
23:00that has been passed down
23:01for generations.
23:02Whether we accept it
23:03or not,
23:04up until now,
23:05we believe
23:06in the teachings
23:07of our grandmothers
23:08and our ancestors
23:09that have been passed
23:10down
23:11from generation
23:12to generation.
23:16Social media
23:17and influencers
23:18have a big influence
23:19especially
23:20in the lives
23:21of people
23:22nowadays.
23:24That's why
23:25their belief
23:26is just like that
23:27because
23:28based on
23:29the experiences
23:30of other people,
23:31for them,
23:32this is true.
23:35For Anya,
23:36despite being
23:37prohibited
23:38from her doctor,
23:39she believes
23:40that eating
23:41her placenta
23:42helped her a lot
23:43to quickly
23:44regain
23:45her strength
23:46from her birth.
23:48I believe
23:49that
23:50the placenta
23:51also helps
23:52because it's full
23:53of nutrition.
23:54It's really good
23:55if you get
23:56postpartum
23:57in a week.
23:58Experts
23:59remind us
24:00that even though
24:01it's full of protein
24:02and vitamins,
24:03you shouldn't
24:04eat it.
24:05It doesn't have
24:06a scientific basis
24:07to fully recommend
24:08the consumption
24:09of our placenta.
24:10There's also
24:11a report
24:12by CDC
24:13or Center
24:14for Disease Control
24:15that the mother
24:16and the baby
24:17got infected
24:18because
24:19the placenta
24:20is full
24:21of nutrients
24:22for the mother
24:23and the baby
24:24because
24:25the mother
24:26got sick
24:27when she was
24:28pregnant.
24:29So when
24:30she processed
24:31her placenta
24:32and consumed it,
24:33the baby
24:34also got infected.
24:36For a faster
24:37recovery,
24:38it's important
24:39to have
24:40enough rest
24:41after giving birth.
24:43Exercise
24:44also
24:45after giving birth.
24:46It's important
24:47to advise
24:48your
24:49obstetrician
24:50or midwife
24:51on who
24:52gave birth
24:53to you.
24:56It's also good
24:57to eat
24:58nutritious food
24:59to restore
25:00the strength
25:01of your body.
25:02It's also
25:03important
25:04to ask
25:05for help
25:06from your
25:07spouse
25:08or family
25:09if you need
25:10help
25:11or if you
25:12want to rest.
25:13When it comes
25:14to giving birth
25:15and giving birth,
25:16we have a lot
25:17of advice,
25:18advice,
25:19and beliefs.
25:20But
25:21it's also
25:22important
25:23to take care
25:24of the safety
25:25and health
25:26of not only
25:27the baby
25:28but also
25:29the mother.
25:31And lastly,
25:32Dr. G,
25:33this question
25:34is from
25:35Annalyn T.
25:36Her ear
25:37is itching
25:38and hurting.
25:39What
25:40medicine
25:41can be used
25:42for this?
25:43I see
25:44swelling,
25:45rashes,
25:46bleeding,
25:47and the infection
25:48is really
25:49bad.
25:50But
25:51I see
25:52yellowish
25:53discharge.
25:54So,
25:55we don't
25:56know if
25:57this is
25:58caused by
25:59seborrheic
26:00dermatitis
26:01or if
26:02your child
26:03has
26:04atopic
26:05eczema.
26:06So,
26:07the best
26:08here is
26:09don't
26:10let this
26:11last long
26:12because
26:13it's a
26:14baby
26:15and it
26:16looks like
26:17it has
26:18perichondritis.
26:19It's
26:20more
26:21dangerous.
26:22So,
26:23go to
26:24an ENT.
26:25Maybe
26:26you need
26:27antibiotics
26:28and
26:29antibiotic
26:30creams
26:31or
26:32anti-inflammatories
26:33or
26:34paracetamol.
26:35Go to
26:36an ENT
26:37to see
26:38if there's
26:39an infection
26:40in the ear
26:41because this
26:42can be also
26:43because of
26:44a discharge
26:45from the
26:46ear.
26:47And if
26:48that discharge
26:49is causing
26:50irritation
26:51in your
26:52ears.
26:53So,
26:54go to
26:55an ENT
26:56to see
26:57the inside
26:58of your
26:59child's
27:00ears.
27:01Sparkling
27:02clean.
27:03That's
27:04what we
27:05want to
27:06achieve
27:07in our
27:08bathrooms.
27:09But
27:10what if

28:09When
28:10I
28:11got
28:12hit
28:13by a
28:14He was cleaning the bathroom when a bottle of a chemical suddenly fell.
28:25It was enough for it to splash in his right eye.
28:31The incident happened on January 31, 2024.
28:37When I was cleaning the bathroom, the chemical fell on my right eye.
28:46The problem was that he was not wearing PPE or Personal Protective Equipment.
28:53That's why the chemical went straight into his right eye.
28:58When it splashed in my eye, I was in intense pain.
29:02At that time, I panicked.
29:06I was wondering what was going to happen to my right eye.
29:11Even though he felt the pain, he immediately washed his eyes with water.
29:22My brother brought me to the hospital.
29:28When I arrived at the hospital,
29:32while the doctor was waiting for me, he took me to the sink.
29:38He also washed my eyes in the bathroom.
29:42After the doctor arrived, he irrigated my eyes.
29:48The doctor prescribed eye drops and pain relievers
29:53to alleviate the pain he felt.
29:57After I arrived at the hospital, my eyes turned all white.
30:07At first, I could still see the colors.
30:12But now, I can only move my hands.
30:17Chemical eyeburn is one of the most dangerous eye emergencies.
30:22When he burns his eyes, he eats the part of the eye that he hit.
30:29The lower part of the eye will continue to melt if there are still chemicals left.
30:35What women are afraid of is that it can affect their eyes.
30:42It can cause pain such as glaucoma and cataract.
30:48The parts of the eye that can be damaged by chemical eyeburns
30:54are the outer part of the eye, such as the eyelid, the eyelids, and the eyeball.
31:02According to the expert,
31:05chemical eyeburns can cause redness and burning sensation.
31:11At first, you will feel pain.
31:14You will cry.
31:17Your eyes will become blurry.
31:19You will cry a lot.
31:21Later on, you will feel heavy.
31:25Because the pressure in your eyes increases.
31:28Tiffany's work was affected by the accident.
31:33Because of the accident, I stopped working.
31:39Because of the eye surgery, I couldn't go back to work.
31:48In April 2024, Tiffany underwent a tarsotomy procedure
31:54where she lifted her lower and upper eyelids
31:58so that the eyelashes wouldn't stick to her eyeball.
32:03I fixed my lower and upper eyelids
32:05because the eyelashes got stuck to my cornea.
32:14Two months later, she underwent a buccal mucosal surgery
32:20where she took tissue from her labia to put it on her eyelid.
32:27At first, I put amnion grafts
32:30to protect my cornea so that it wouldn't open.
32:32I fixed my lower eyelid again
32:35because after the eyelid surgery, it still got stuck.
32:42In case of an accident, your eyes will be contaminated by chemicals
32:46according to an expert.
32:48It is said that it is good to rinse your eyes with water.
32:51Immediately and for a long time.
32:54You don't rinse your eyes every once in a while.
32:56Rinse your eyes continuously for 15 to 20 minutes.
32:59Cover your affected eyes with clean gauze
33:02and bring the victim to the nearest hospital.
33:06If there is an infection,
33:09you need to take care of it.
33:11If there is a bruise or damage,
33:13you need to operate on it immediately.
33:18In order to avoid such an accident,
33:21it is advisable to properly clean the chemicals
33:24and place it in a safe place in your homes.
33:29It is very, very important to use protection.
33:32Usually, you will notice that those who clean in the bathroom wear gloves.
33:35They wear thick rubber gloves.
33:37If you wear goggles,
33:39if you clean your eyes with just a drop of acid or alkali,
33:44your eyes can be contaminated for the rest of your life.
33:47For now, Tiffany is waiting for her scheduled operation.
33:53I am doing these operations because I want to go back to my normal life.
34:00I want to go back to work and I want to get my vision back.
34:07Our own home can be affected by an accident.
34:12So don't be too sure and be careful.
34:14For an accident, it is clear that it can be avoided.
