Hypertension
Dr. Quincy Raya in Condition Guides
Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a significant health concern in the Philippines, affecting a large portion of the adult population. Often termed the "silent killer," it frequently presents no symptoms until severe complications arise. Understanding its causes, symptoms, and management is crucial for prevention and control, particularly as cardiovascular diseases continue to be a leading cause of death among Filipinos ( WHO ).
Peyronie's Disease

Peyronie's disease is a condition characterized by the development of fibrous scar tissue inside the penis, leading to curved, painful erections. While it may not be widely discussed in the Philippines, increasing awareness is essential for early diagnosis and effective management. A proactive approach can help men find treatment earlier and improve their quality of life.
Dyslipidemia

Dyslipidemia refers to abnormal levels of lipids (fats) in the blood, including cholesterol and triglycerides. This condition significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attacks and strokes. In the Philippines, where heart disease remains a leading cause of death, the high prevalence of dyslipidemia highlights the urgent need for greater awareness, early diagnosis, and proactive management.
