Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Relieve pressure on existing sores. Reposition your body frequently. Keep as active as possible. Use support surfaces and protective padding. Maintain adequate blood circulation. Choose comfortable clothing. Change sheets often. Control pain with ibuprofen.

Answer: If you have a sore that has developed, reposition the body and make sure you stay off that sore spot for at least 2-3 days. If the sore does not go away, check with your doctor to consider additional treatment options. If you are confined to a bed or wheelchair, you need to reposition your body frequently throughout the day to relieve existing pressure on sores and to prevent bedsores from developing. Reposition the body every 2 hours in a bed or every hour in a wheelchair. This will relieve pressure that builds up on certain areas, which will help bedsores from getting worse. If you're in a wheelchair, you might use cushions to change your position. The cushions can prop you up at different angles to redistribute your weight onto another pressure point. Additionally, it's best for you to spend some time everyday lying in your bed or on the couch to minimize your time in the same position. Even though someone who is bed bound or wheelchair-bound may not be very active, their body can still be moved around. This will prevent pressure from building up in certain areas and will increase blood flow through the body. Activity can also improve mental health, a crucial component in maintaining your overall health. The key to reducing risk of bedsores is to reduce pressure that builds up on particular parts of the body. Use special cushions that are made of foam or filled with air or water can be useful. Similarly, protective padding may help, especially between knees or under the head or elbows. Some support products such as doughnut-type products might actually increase the risk of developing bedsores. You can avoid this by switching out what type of product you are using to change up your pressure points. Check with your doctor to determine which products are best for you. Bedsores develop in part from inadequate blood flow to the skin areas. When pressure is applied to the skin, blood vessels are restricted from doing their job. Maintain good blood flow by drinking lots of water, not smoking, and repositioning your body. If you have diabetes, this might contribute to lower blood circulation. Work with your doctor to strategize how to improve blood circulation. Wear clothing that is not too tight or too loose, both of which can cause rubbing and irritation. Change clothing every day to ensure that skin is kept clean too. Wear cotton-based materials that do not have heavy seams. Be careful when using disposable underwear or pants made for incontinence. While these products can be very helpful if you need them, they can cause bedsores if you leave them on for too long. Change disposable underwear as soon as they become soiled, as the wetness increases the risk of bedsores. For those who are bedbound, having clean sheets will ensure that bacteria will not aggravate bedsores. Bed linens may also get sweaty and irritate the skin. Changing the bedding on a frequent basis will help eliminate this risk. Take either over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or naproxen to reduce pain. Choose nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) medication, rather than aspirin, acetaminophen or opioids.  Take ibuprofen before or after you reposition your body, when you undergo a debridement procedure, or when your wounds are getting cleaned. These can help reduce pain that you might feel.  If you still feel pain during wound cleaning, your medical provider may prescribe a stronger pain medication.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Assume the starting position. Keep your right foot pointed and bring it back. Point your left foot and bring it to the back. Lift your knee and walk in place for a count of 7. Repeat back steps with alternate feet.

Answer: For all Irish dances, your right toe should be pointed in front of you. Your shoulders should stay low and back while your arms are straight down by your side. Bring your right knee up slightly, then put your leg behind your body. When you place your foot on the floor, you should be in the same position that you started with, except your left leg is in the front of your body. Repeat the previous step, except this time; bring your left leg behind your body so your right leg is in front again. Make sure you keep your toes pointed out. While walking, stay on your toes and alternate lifting your knees on each count. On 7, place your left foot solid on the ground. When you lift your knees, keep your toes pointed. After your count of 7, point your right foot out, lift your knee, and bring your leg behind your body. Then, repeat this step with your left leg, pointing your foot and then bringing the leg behind your body. Once you get the basics down, make it "hoppy." There should be a livelihood to your points and knee lifts that make it seem like you're sort of jumping. With every accented step, add a small hop on your back foot.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Gather the supplies. Prepare the water bottle. Take apart a disposable pen. Saw the pen's barrel in half. Prepare the cap. Cut out the outline. Create fins out of cardboard. Attach your components. Connect the pen.

Answer:
For this rocket, you will need one water bottle, one pen, one foam football, duct tape or hot glue, and cardboard. You can really use any type of water or soda bottle. For a larger rocket use a two-liter soda bottle. Remove label (if applicable) and discard. Take the cap off, but save it. You will need it later. At this point, you may want to consider decorations like paint, stickers, colored duct tape and the like.  (You can decorate later, but it may be easiest at this stage). Bic Pens work great. Remove all parts and set them aside. Use caution when handling these components of the pen. It is easy for the ink cartridge to explode. Don't try this with the clear plastic pens because they will typically crumble. The white plastic cased pens work the best. If you don't have a saw or find it dangerous, you could use a kitchen knife. Take the cap of your bottle and outline the size of the pen barrel onto the cap. Hold the halved pen barrel and trace it with the pen cartridge. Take a drill the size of the pen barrel and drill into the center of the cap. You could also try to use a knife if you don't have an accessible power drill. Take a piece of cardboard or similar material and cut out 3-6 large fins. You will want these to be fairly large because they will hold and support the rocket before take-off.  Look online at rockets for inspiration. You can either use duct tape or use a hot glue gun. Do not use "Crazy Glue" or similar adhesive, as it will chemically dissolve the plastic. Evenly attach the fins so that they are facing down from the water bottle's cap.  Treat the fins like feet for the rocket. The rocket's tip, or the bottom of the water bottle, should be facing the sky. If the fins are uneven, the rocket will not shoot straight into the air. It may veer off course. Typically, the goal is to fly high, not sideways. Take the pen barrel and insert it into the hole of the cap. If there are any gaps you should seal it with used gum or another malleable adhesive.
