III. LEPROSY II. TUBERCULOSIS - Other name: Hansen’s Disease - Infectious bacteria disease characterized by growth of nodules in tissues, especially the lungs Cause: Mycobacterium Leprae Cause: - Mainly affects the skin, nerves and mucous Mycobacterium Tuberculosis membranes - Only lives in humans - Chronic bacterial disease of the skin, nerves - Small airborne droplets carrying the in the hands and feet, lining of the nose organism to pulmonary air spaces Clinical Features of Oral Leprosy: Clinical Features: 1.

Leprosy is - Aphthous stomatitis divided into 2 types: - Syphilis ulcers a. Pauci-Bacillary (PB) Leprosy: - Actinomycosis Rifampicin & Dapsone: - 6 months Pulmonary Consumption - 1-5 skin lesions - Tuberculosis of the lungs b. - Most common form of TB c. Multi-Bacillary (MB) Leprosy: - Most infectious form Rifampicin, Clofazimine & Dapsone: Scrofula - 12 months - TB of cervical lymph nodes Pneumothorax IV. ACTINOMYCOSIS - Collapse of a lung - Other name: Lumpy Jaw Treatment: - long term (chronic) bacterial infection, affects face - Patient takes antibiotics for 6-12 months to and neck completely destroy the bacteria - Rifater: contains all of the medicine needed Cause: Actinomyces Israelii Standard “short” treatment if active for - Anaerobic bacteria (2 months): - Not disease causing organism found in - Isoniazid nose and throat - Rifampicin - Pyrazinamide Forms: - Ethambutol 1. Cervicofacial - most common, occurs in Further four months after 2 months med: mouth, neck and head region - Isoniazid and Rifampicin alone 2.

Throat infection: conditions, 2-5 years of age - Sore throat, usually no symptoms Cause: Oral Lesions: Fusospirochetal Organisms: 1. Round, slightly elevated, gray-white spots - Bacterial infection scattered over the tongue, soft palate, cheeks, tonsils, oropharynx Symptoms: 2. Lesions become eroded 1. Inflammation of gums and inner cheeks 3. Pseudomembranes may be present 2. Inflammatory ulcerates if not treated 4. Flu-like stomatitis or pharyngitis 3. Foul-smelling discharge causing breath 5. Secretions, bleeding in gingiva odor and odor to the skin 4. Tissues begin to die Complication: 5. Massive tissue destruction before healing Women: - Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) Location: Men: - One or both sides of the jaw, occasionally - Epididymitis: painful condition of ducts, may the front of the face (mouth, lips, nose and lead to infertility when left untreated chin) - Prostatitis and Urethritis Treatment: Prevention: - Antibiotics - Avoid sexual intercourse or monogamous - Improved nutrition relationship - May require reconstructive plastic surgery - Latex condoms Treatment: VI.

INFECTIOUS MONONUCLEOSIS 1. MUMPS - Spread by person to person contact, saliva is the - highly infectious viral disease transmitted through primary method the patient’s saliva Other names: Other names: - Kissing Disease - Epidemic Parotitis - Glandular Fever - Infectious Parotitis Age: 2nd and 3rd decades of life Age: 5-15 years old Cause: Epstein-Barr Virus Location: Parotid glands Causative Virus: Paramyxovirus Initial Symptoms: (1-3 days) - General lack of energy or malaise Clinical SIgns and Symptoms: - A loss of appetite 1.
