Band cells are the immature form of neutrophils and are produced rapidly during an infection. A large percentage of band cells in a venous blood sample indicate an infectious process occurring in the body.
Sensitivity to temperature is a skin sense that is related to the human need to maintain internal temperature balance or thermal homeostasis. Temperature sensitivity is important in protecting one's self from intense temperature that may cause damage to the body.
Light Sensitivity. Light sensitivity is a hypersensitivity to light. A sudden onset of substantial or even painful light sensitivity (photophobia) may be caused by inflammation in the eye. This may be due to a foreign body in the eye, eye allergy, an infection of the cornea or an inflammation of the iris or uvea. This may also occur after having LASIK or cataract surgery. A gradual onset of less severe sensitivity to light may be associated with cataract or tear film abnormalities such as dry eyes.
