PERFORMANCE TASK 9

   RHINITIS 
           
              As years pass by ,we humans start to think of ourselves less and think of things on what we want and like instead of what we need. And one of those things is to not think on what we are weak to. Knowing what we are weak to is one of the most important things to survive especially for us because we are human beings, we are not robots that wouldn't die unless our switch would be turned off. Being careful on what we are weak to is basically avoiding diseases that would later be a problem on our life. That is why as early as of now we should take care of our body and think more of ourselves instead of thinking on what we want and like on our life because later in life ,you would regret everything.

         Rhinitis is known to be caused by a reaction of the body's immune system to an environmental trigger. This may cause an inflammation and swelling of the mucous membrane of the nose, characterized by a runny nose and stuffiness and usually caused by the common cold or a seasonal allergy. Rhinitis may reduce the quality of sleep and induces daytime drowsiness which may increase the risk of accidents. We have designed this poster so that we may let people know how dangerous rhinitis is. As you can see from the poster we have put Causes, Effects and How to prevent this Disease. We made a Giant nose in the middle of our Poster representing the disease itself, Rhinitis. And then we added the effects on what this disease will do when this disease is untreated. The giant magnifying glasses that is zooming in and out of the nose is representing the Causes, as you could see there ,we only mentioned 4 causes and those causes are the main ones, Headache, Stuffy nose, Sore throat and Fatigue. We chose a fist representing the causes it is because the disease causing a symptom is like a punch to a gut and could make your day worse. So, that is why we chose it ,it has Infections, Hormone Changes and Occupational Irritants which are the main 3 causesAnd finally the Prevention ,the prevention is found on the down right corner of the poster. It has a hand sign which is stopping the disease from spreading. This hand represents on how we should Prevent this disease and one of those things to prevent this disease from growing faster on your nose is to Wash your hands and Don't touch or Rub  your nose insanely. We made this poster so we want to teach all the people on how to prevent this disease from affecting people and spreading, throughout different places. The poster lets people be aware of the effects that this disease may bring to their lives. We want people to contemplate about the burden this disease may given to an individual. We have provided a complete and understandable information about this disease. 

    
                 Economics has a huge role on our disease, Rhinitis. Economics usually comes in with
expenses and how much you will pay. The relation between economics and the disease Rhinitis is that when you buy the perspective medications for this Disease it usually costs a lot especially anti-biotics because this disease needs medications that are expensive and medications that could lessen the infections. The same thing goes when you are staying on a hospital for whatever reason. It actually depends on how long your are gonna stay on the hospital. The longer you will stay, the higher you will pay. And do not forget the Bills, and needs for your everyday life. That is why you should take care of your body because we only have one body and we cannot replace it.
For example : 
                                             Let's just say that your total budget is 5,500 pesos. 
                                        
              This is usually your total budget at the end of the month but what if you get diseases that would affect your monthly budgeting? Well. This happens :

                                  

                    What basically happened is that when we have medications added to our monthly budget plan. Instead of only paying about 5,463 Pesos a month, we have exceeded this by adding 500 pesos on our monthly budget plan. Another thing is that this is just an example so what this means is, 500 pesos on medications for Rhinitis is not exactly the payment for the medications for this disease. Since this disease needs medications that are expensive such as anti-biotics and other stuff. 
                  
                   In short. We should always take care of our body. Just like what we said back in how we discussed what Rhinitis is. "We only have one body and we cannot replace it"
