Problem: Article: You can do this in any format you like--handwrite it, type it in a Word document, print it on a large sheet, etc. Whatever format you choose to use, write the steps you will need to take to achieve each of your goals in chronological order. Congratulations--you have just written out your life plan. This is a good time to review the details of each step--like the names of the specific graduate programs you are going to apply to. Or, if one of your goals is simply to be happy, write out the details of what will make you most happy along the way. One fact of life is that it always changes--and so do we. The goals and priorities that you had when you were 15 are probably not the same as the goals you will have when you are 25 or 45. It is important to review your life plan every so often to make sure that you are following a plan that will truly give you a happy and satisfactory life. When you review your life plan, also assess the successes that you have achieve so far. It is good to keep track of your accomplishments. When you do find that your priorities and the goals associated with those priorities have changed, it's time to rewrite at least part of your life plan. Consider what is different, what is more important to you now, and how you will achieve this new goal. Rewrite your life plan as much as you need to.  Don’t limit yourself to a certain number of goals--your life plan is a fluid thing. Add goals as they become priorities in your life and remove those that aren’t as important anymore. Failure at some points in your plan is inevitable. That doesn't mean it has to derail everything. Consider options and actions for when failure occurs. How you deal with setbacks can be the difference in whether or not you achieve your goals.
Summary: Write down the steps you will need to take to reach each of your goals. Review your life plan. Adjust your life plan.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you notice the beginning of symptoms, follow the steps your healthcare professional has recommended to prevent flare-ups. You won’t always be able to prevent flare-ups, but recognizing the onset of symptoms can significantly help you to manage them.  If your provider has suggested over-the-counter medicines to treat symptoms, such as anti-diuretics or anti-inflammatory pills, take the medication at the onset of symptoms. Make a note of new or unusual symptoms or reactions, keep a list of any medications you used and write down any potential offending foods or drinks so that you can discuss them with your healthcare provider and avoid the cause of such discomfort in the future. If your symptoms include frequent bowel movements or diarrhea, using a lot of dry toilet paper to clean yourself may leave you chafed and sore. Keep moist towelettes in your bathroom and use them instead of toilet paper to avoid discomfort around your anus during flare-ups.  Note that some moist wipes are flushable and some are not. When you buy your moist towelettes, check the label to see whether they can be safely flushed down the toilet. If you’re out and about during a flare-up, bring a package of moist towelettes with you in case you have to make an emergency trip to the restroom. If you’re experiencing severe irritation around your anus due to frequent bowel movements, a skin protectant with soothing properties may help alleviate your discomfort. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to apply the protectorant every night until your discomfort disappears. Skin protectant is a topical cream used to treat skin irritation (usually diaper rash). You can buy all-purpose skin protectant at any pharmacy or drugstore. Check the label to make sure that the protectant can safely be applied to your anus. Certain fiber supplements may help to relieve moderate diarrhea by adding bulk to your stool. However, it may be harmful to combine these supplements with other medications, so consult with your doctor to see if this is a viable option for you. Some popular fiber supplements include psyllium powder and methylcellulose.

SUMMARY: Pay attention to your body to know when a flare-up is about to occur. Use moist towelettes instead of dry toilet paper after bowel movements. Apply an all-purpose skin protectant to your anus at night. Take fiber supplements as needed, if approved by your doctor.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Treating wounds immediately is important because cellulitis can be introduced to the body through an open wound. Any open would, however innocuous and seemingly harmless, can create an opportunity for the development of cellulitis. Inflammation generally starts at the point where skin was previously broken. As a result, you should treat all newly opened wounds as soon as possible. Introduction of cellulitis can be caused by:  Cuts Blisters Burns Cracks in the skin Surgical wounds Sites of intravenous catheter insertion Cellulitis is most often caused by Streptococcus type A and Staphylococcus aureus; however, while these are the two most common causes, it can be caused by other types of bacteria. Blood test and cultures are needed in order to determine exactly the type of bacteria that is causing cellulitis.  If you have a known or suspected underlying condition, such as diabetes, your doctor will likely want to perform more tests. Be conscious of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which is a bacteria that is resistant to antibiotic treatment. Oral medication will not work on this type of infection and you will need to be given vancomycin intravenously. MRSA must be treated quickly or it can become life-threatening. Treatment for mild forms of cellulitis include elevation of the affected area and treatment of the underlying conditions.  Patients that have edema as one of their underlying conditions may benefit from compression stockings or diuretics. Nevertheless, antibiotics are usually the best solution to heal this type of infection. Antibiotics are used orally or intravenously depending of severity affected skin area.  For mild infections, your doctor may give you the oral antibiotic cephalexin. In more severe cases, you may be treated with vancomycin or meropenem. One major complication of cellulitis includes infection of deeper structures, such as bone.  This can lead to a disease called osteomyelitis, which is the infection of the bone and requires aggressive treatment. In cases of recurrence of disease treatment with antibiotics may last up to several months.
Summary:
Treat wounds immediately to help prevent infection. Recognize that cellulitis is caused by a bacterial infection. Take antibiotics to treat cellulitis.
