Bullied Teens Who Exercise May Lower Suicide Risk, Study Finds

But researcher adds that many U.S. schools have cut opportunities for physical activity

FRIDAY, Sept. 25, 2015 (HealthDay News) -- Regular exercise may lower bullied teens' risk of suicide, researchers report.
The researchers analyzed data from more than 13,500 U.S. high school students and found that being physically active four or more days a week reduced bullied teens' suicidal thoughts and attempts by 23 percent.
The researchers also found that about 30 percent of bullied teens said they had felt sad for two or more weeks in the previous year; 22 percent thought about suicide; and more than 8 percent attempted suicide in the previous year. About 20 percent of the students said they had been bullied on school property.
Bullied students were two times more likely to report sadness and three times more likely to think about or attempt suicide than those who weren't bullied.
Physical activity on four or more days a week also led to large reductions in sadness, the researchers said.
The study was published recently in the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry.
"I was surprised that it was that significant and that positive effects of exercise extended to kids actually trying to harm themselves," study author Jeremy Sibold said in a University of Vermont news release. Sibold is associate professor and chairman of the university's department rehabilitation and movement science.
While the study showed an association between physical activity and suicide risk, it did not prove a cause-and-effect link.
"Even if one kid is protected because we got them involved in an after-school activity or in a physical education program, it's worth it," Sibold added.
But, many U.S. schools have significantly cut students' opportunities for physical activity, he noted.
"It's scary and frustrating that exercise isn't more ubiquitous and that we don't encourage it more in schools," Sibold said. "Instead, some kids are put on medication and told 'good luck.' If exercise reduces sadness, suicide ideation and suicide attempts, then why in the world are we cutting physical education programs and making it harder for students to make athletic teams at such a critical age?"

How to Dispose of Unused or Expired Prescription Drugs

Stashing them in a cabinet is unwise; old medications can become ineffective or unsafe
     
By Mary Elizabeth Dallas
Friday, September 25, 2015
FRIDAY, Sept. 25, 2015 (HealthDay News) -- Many people hold on to extra prescription drugs, but saving old medications is unwise, a pharmacist warns.
"Medications that are expired have passed their half-life, which leads to them being ineffective," said Kimberly Cimarelli, pharmacy manager at Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, in Hershey, Pa.
Expired medications can even be dangerous, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration says. Their chemical composition can change and, over time, expired drugs may become less effective or potentially harmful.
Getting rid of old, unused medications can also help ensure children don't accidentally get their hands on them. Having fewer medications at home can also help prevent mix-ups, the experts pointed out.
"Older people who may be easily confused could take the wrong medication because the unwanted or expired medication wasn't disposed of," Officer Rebecca Kessler, of the Derry Township (Pa.) Police Department, said in a university news release.
Prescription drug abuse is on the rise in the United States, according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Removing old medications from the home prevents people from using someone else's prescription, the DEA explained.
Having old prescriptions in the house also makes people a target for those looking to steal drugs, Kessler pointed out.
"Some people who keep their medications have fallen victim to those with a criminal mindset because it is much easier to steal medications from a house or person rather than a pharmacy or hospital," Kessler said.
It may seem smart to flush unwanted medicines down the toilet or throw them in the trash. But this isn't a good idea, she added.
"This causes the medications to end up in our water system and landfills, polluting our water and land," Kessler said.
Instead, she suggested, take advantage of drug take-back events or drop boxes in your community -- safe ways to dispose of medications that are no longer being used. After they are dropped off, medications are incinerated, which can help protect the environment. Many police departments have secure drop-boxes available for use around the clock.
"All someone has to do is walk in, open the box and drop in their unwanted or expired medications," Kessler said. "They don't have to speak with anyone."
Keep in mind that needles, sprays, inhalers, liquids and creams are usually not accepted at the drop boxes, according to the news release.
The DEA's 10th National Prescription Drug Take-Back takes place throughout September, the news release said.

Expert Tips for Preventing Kids' Sports Injuries

Children need breaks from playing to avoid overuse injuries, orthopedic surgeon says

FRIDAY, Sept. 25, 2015 (HealthDay News) -- "Put me in, Coach," may be a common plea heard from young athletes. But sports medicine experts suggest that benching players for at least part of the year might help prevent sports-related injuries.
"The biggest problem right now is that many children and teens are not taking time off from their sports activities," said Dr. James Penna, an orthopedic surgeon at Stony Brook University Hospital in Stony Brook, N.Y.
"Young athletes need to rest, but many participate in sports year-round, which can result in overuse injuries," he said in a hospital news release.
To prevent overuse injuries such as stress and growth plate fractures, Penna recommends taking a two- to four-month break from any one sport, "especially the sports that involve overhand motion such as tennis and baseball," he said.
Children who participate in year-round sports such as gymnastics and swimming should be taught to warm up and stretch properly. For these athletes, scheduling rest time and changing exercise patterns can help prevent injuries. Making sure children use proper techniques and have good form is also important, Penna said.
Appropriate safety gear, such as helmets and pads, are also essential.
"Most major organized sports -- football, baseball, hockey, lacrosse -- have done a good job of ensuring that children wear appropriate protective head gear, which helps prevent head injuries and concussions," Penna said.
Helmets, pads and other safety equipment are also important for children involved in skateboarding, BMX biking, skiing and snowboarding since they are at higher risk for serious injuries, he explained.
"If a head injury has occurred, it is particularly important that the child gets 100 percent clearance from his or her doctor, including a complete neurologic checkup, before playing again," Penna said.
"A seemingly minor head injury sustained while a child is still symptomatic from a prior injury could have catastrophic consequences," he cautioned.
And parents should know that football isn't the only team sport where kids can get a concussion. "Currently, the concussion rates are higher among soccer players than among football players, and we've found that soccer head injuries have tended to go undertreated," Penna said.
Another way parents can prevent sports-related injuries among their kids is to pay attention to their shoes and look for signs of wear.
In general, a pair of cleats lasts one season, but it's still important to check the shoes' insoles and spikes periodically to make sure they are in good condition. This can help avoid foot and ankle injuries.
Children who play organized sports should also drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, Penna added.
