Acid Reflux & Heartburn
Acid reflux, also known as heartburn, can make eating a miserable experience. It feels like acid burning in your chest or throat which is exactly what it is – excess stomach acid travelling the wrong way up your oesophagus to places where it shouldn’t be. An occasional attack is easily managed at home but if you suffer regularly, it can damage your throat and lead to the chronic condition, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. Thankfully, there are plenty of effective over-the-counter and prescription treatments to make you feel more comfortable when you eat.

Not everyone will climb Everest but if you’re lucky enough to go mountaineering beware of altitude sickness. It happens when you travel above 2500m and your body doesn’t have enough time to adjust to the lower air pressure and oxygen. You might feel headachy, dizzy, sick and have trouble breathing or a racing heart. Gradual ascent, staying hydrated, and avoiding alcohol are key steps. If symptoms persist, medication can provide relief. In severe cases, immediate descent and medical attention might be necessary. Let’s make sure you’re well-prepared for your high-altitude journey.
1 guide from 1 authorView Altitude SicknessAnxiety
Anxiety is that uncomfortable feeling you get when you're worried about things that are coming up or might happen in the future. It's a completely normal response, like feeling nervous before an interview or a medical test and usually nothing to be concerned about. However, for some people, these worries can become hard to control and constant, affecting daily life and sometimes leading to panic attacks. If this sounds like you, remember you're not alone, and it's okay to seek help.

If you notice a strange vaginal discharge with a distinct fishy odour, especially after sexual intercourse, it might be Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). It’s not an STI and is actually caused by an imbalance in your vaginal bacteria but it can make you more prone to infections. The good news is BV is easy to treat with antibiotics or pH-balancing creams and gels. If you notice symptoms, don’t be embarrassed – just get checked out and with the right treatment you’ll start feeling more comfortable soon. Let’s take the first step towards relief and restore your comfort and confidence together.

Firstly, chlamydia is a really common sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the UK which you can catch through unprotected sex. Secondly, it’s nothing to be embarrassed about - lots of people are treated every year - but it is important to get tested if you think you have an infection because if left untreated it can lead to fertility problems. It’s easily treated with a short course of antibiotics such as doxycycline and azithromycin. We'll figure which one is best for you and get you sorted.

There’s nothing more frustrating than trying to go to the toilet but not being able to go no matter how much you strain. But you’re not alone – lots of people of all ages suffer from constipation where they have less than three bowel movements a week and when they do, their poos are larger than normal, hard, dry or lumpy. Diet and lifestyle changes are the best way to get your bowels working normally but if that doesn’t work and you need a little extra help we can get you the right medication.

Hormonal contraception is a great way to prevent pregnancy, but knowing which type to opt for can be a little confusing. Whether it’s hormonal pills, patches, injections, implants or Intra-Uterine Devices (IUD) they all work in a similar way by stopping ovulation, changing the cervical mucus and making your uterus less hospitable to pregnancy. You can find hormonal contraception that contains both oestrogen and progesterone, or just progesterone alone. Let’s explore your options and ensure you’re well-informed about managing your contraceptive needs.

Suffering from cystitis, a common urinary tract infection (UTI), can be quite painful, often causing a stinging or burning sensation when you pee. You might feel the need to go more urgently and frequently, and your wee may appear cloudy or even bloodstained. While it can be agonising each time you visit the toilet, you can often get through mild bouts by drinking plenty of fluids, taking painkillers to ease discomfort and avoiding sex. Let’s find the right treatment to relieve your symptoms and keep you feeling comfortable and healthy.

Do you have a gritty feeling in your eye, like there’s something stuck in it? You might be experiencing dry eye, which can make your eyes feel irritated, scratchy, and uncomfortable. It’s natural to worry about potential damage to your sight, especially if this is new to you. Sometimes, your vision might get blurry for short periods, but blinking usually improves it. Eye drops and gels can soothe your eyes both day and night. Managing dry eye is important to prevent further irritation and discomfort. Let’s find the right solution to keep your eyes comfortable and healthy.

Living with dry skin on your scalp can really impact your daily life. Not only can the itching and flaking drive you mad, but it can also be embarrassing and inconvenient. You might notice redness and an uncomfortable, tight feeling as well. Conditions like eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis and dandruff are all common causes of dry scalp and finding the best treatment will depend on the specific issue. But if you need something fast our team can recommend a cream, ointment or medicated shampoo to soothe your scalp and give you some much-needed relief.

Many people struggle with dry skin - it’s a very common issue. But we also know it's really irritating. Medically known as xerosis cutis, your skin can become itchy, crack and scale over. If you have the problem for a while and it’s not treated, it can become very uncomfortable, affecting your daily life. But don’t worry, help is at hand and there’s no need to suffer in discomfort any longer. There’s a range of creams and ointments we have which give you relief, fast. Let’s get started.

Having wax in your ears is completely normal and is generally nothing to worry about. It’s there to stop irritants and dirt getting in and helps keep your ears nice and healthy. Most of the time, earwax falls out naturally over time. Occasionally however, it begins to build up, blocking the ears and causing a range of symptoms including reduced hearing, earache, ringing or buzzing and vertigo. If you think your earwax may be causing an issue, using drops will soften it so it can be removed naturally. Let’s find the best method to keep your ears clear and comfortable.

If you have eczema or dermatitis, it can have a real impact on your quality of life. Not only do these chronic conditions cause itching, pain and disrupted sleep, they can also stop you from taking part in a range of activities and making the most of daily life. We understand just how tough this can be. Luckily, there are some great treatments that can help control your symptoms and dramatically improve your quality of life. From non-prescription emollients and bath additives to steroid creams and ointments, we can help you find the best treatment for your skin and support you in effectively managing your condition.

If you’ve had unprotected sex, or if your normal contraception has failed, you may well be worried about getting pregnant. But try not to feel too anxious. The emergency contraceptive pill, normally known as ‘the morning after pill’ is very effective when it’s taken within a few days and can prevent the majority of unwanted pregnancies. The pill works by delaying or stopping ovulation and the sooner you take it, the more likely it is to work. Let’s ensure you have the information you need to make the right choice for you.
2 guides from 1 authorView Emergency ContraceptionErectile Dysfunction (ED)
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is incredibly common. The condition makes it difficult to get and keep an erection long enough to have sex and is experienced by millions of men across the country. We know this won’t necessarily make it any easier if it happens to you. The good news is that changing your lifestyle is often enough to improve ED. Reducing anxiety, getting more sleep and drinking less alcohol can all help to get your sex life back on track. However, as ED can also be a sign of an underlying issue, it’s important to speak to a doctor if the issue persists.
85 guides from 4 authorsView Erectile Dysfunction (ED)Facial Hair
We understand that having excessive hair in a very visible place, like the face or neck, can make you feel a little self-conscious. Excessive hair, or hirsutism, is normally the result of raised levels of male hormones called androgens. The condition can also cause dark hair to grow on your chest, tummy, lower back, buttocks or thighs. Excessive hair growth is often linked to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but sometimes there isn’t an obvious cause for the condition. If excess hair growth is impacting your quality of life, we’re here to help. We can recommend prescription tablets and creams that can treat hirsutism and minimise the appearance of excess hair.

Fungal nail infections cause nails to thicken, discolour and distort. This can be a little scary, especially if it’s the first time it’s happened to you. But don’t worry, fungal nail infections aren’t normally serious and shouldn’t cause you much pain or discomfort. However, they may make you feel a bit self-conscious and can spread to other nails if left untreated. Using a medicated nail lacquer should stop the infection in its tracks and help your nail to heal. But remember, treating this stubborn infection can take months or even years, and you’ll need to be patient if you’re going to see real results.

A flare-up of genital herpes is never nice, and if it’s your first experience of the virus, it can be a little scary. The sexually transmitted infection causes small, fluid-filled blisters to appear on and around your genitals and anus. These painful blisters cause stinging and burning sensations and can be pretty uncomfortable. Unfortunately, once you’ve caught this highly infectious virus, it’s with you for life and you’re likely to have recurrent episodes over the years. Taking regular pain relief will help you manage your symptoms, but if that doesn’t do the trick, our team can prescribe tablets to help your body keep the virus at bay.

A type of human papillomavirus (HPV), genital warts are one of the most common sexually transmitted infections around. Unfortunately, genital warts are very contagious and can be passed on through pretty much all types of sexual activity. If you catch them, you’ll notice small, flesh-coloured bumps appear across your genitals. These warts have a cauliflower-like appearance and can spread pretty quickly. Luckily, we’ve got a range of creams and solutions that will support your body in fighting the virus and help your skin to heal fast.

Painful and itchy, haemorrhoids (also known as piles) are very uncomfortable. You’re most likely to have haemorrhoids if you’re aged 45 to 65, are pregnant, overweight or do things that make you strain, like lifting heavy objects. You’re also more prone to piles if you have a family history of the condition. But don’t worry, haemorrhoids are pretty common, and our expert team knows exactly how to treat painful piles. We can advise you on the right cream or ointment to soothe your symptoms, and give you tips on staying hydrated and eating a high fibre diet to help prevent haemorrhoids in the future.

Hair loss is very common, but this doesn’t make it any less upsetting if it happens to you. Both male and female pattern baldness are largely genetic. So, if one of your parents experienced hair loss, there’s a good chance you will too. There are also other types of hair loss, like alopecia, that can be caused by stress or illness. You can minimise hair loss by using a mild shampoo, avoiding dye and blow dries and eating a healthy, balanced diet. Let’s explore the best options for you.

Uncomfortable and inconvenient, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can have a real impact on your quality of life, making it harder to socialise, get out and about and even go to work. The most common symptoms of the condition are intermittent stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea and constipation. If you have IBS, you might well find that certain things - like dairy, beans, alcohol and gluten - trigger your symptoms, though no one really knows what causes the condition. Unfortunately, there’s currently no cure for IBS, but avoiding your triggers and taking medication can help to relieve your symptoms and stop IBS getting in the way of your daily life.

Lying awake, night after night, struggling to fall asleep, can take a toll on both your physical and mental wellbeing. Whether it’s caused by depression, anxiety, stress, menopause, an uncomfortable sleeping environment or anything else, insomnia needs to be taken seriously and treated properly. We understand just how disruptive and upsetting the condition can be. If you suffer from insomnia, try to avoid caffeine in the evenings, go to bed and wake up at the same time every night and make sure your bedroom is dark and quiet. Drowsy antihistamines can also improve short-term insomnia and help you get some much-needed rest.

Travelling to a part of the planet with a high risk of malaria can be a little daunting. The parasitic disease is spread by mosquito bites and causes a range of unpleasant symptoms like fever, vomiting and headaches. If it’s left untreated, it can even be fatal.

No two people experience the menopause in the same way, and your symptoms, triggers and challenges will be as unique and individual as you are. The menopause normally starts between the ages of 45 and 55, although some people can start to feel the effects of their changing hormones much earlier. Common symptoms include hot flushes, low libido, vaginal dryness, anxiety and brain fog. You might also just feel a little less like ‘you’. If this sounds familiar, don’t worry, HRT awareness and other treatment options have improved a lot in the past few years and, with our help and support - and a little trial and error - finding the right options for you should be easy.

Mouth ulcers aren’t contagious and they’re not normally serious - but they can be pretty painful and uncomfortable. So, if you have one, you’ll probably want to get it sorted as soon as possible. Most of the time, ulcers are caused by accidentally biting your cheek, getting a burn from scalding food or cutting the inside of your mouth. If your ulcers come back again and again, and you don’t have any injuries, they might be triggered by tiredness, stress or anxiety. Thankfully, there’s a great choice of gels, rinses and sprays that can soothe your pain and help your ulcers heal fast.

Period pain can vary from very mild to pretty severe. While some people breeze through their monthly cycle, others have to curl up in bed with a hot water bottle and painkillers and wait until the cramps fade away. Generally, the pain is most intense during the first few days of your period. Cramps are felt in the lower abdomen, back and thighs and can seem worse at night. Heat compresses, gentle stretching and relaxation can help to ease period pain, as can non-prescription painkillers like paracetamol and ibuprofen. We understand the challenges of managing period pain. Let us support you with effective treatments to help you feel more comfortable during your menstrual cycle.

Often mistaken for acne, rosacea is a skin condition that makes the blood vessels in your face more visible, giving your cheeks, chin, nose and forehead a distinctive red appearance. Some people may also develop small, pus-filled bumps across the affected area. No one is 100% sure what causes rosacea, with alcohol, caffeine, spicy food and even exercise blamed for inflaming the condition. We know that dealing with something that’s highly visible like rosacea isn’t easy. Our team can recommend creams and gels to help reduce redness and ease inflammation. That can also offer advice on antibiotic treatment if you want to clear your skin fast.

Snoring isn’t really a problem unless you share a bedroom with someone else - then it can become a major issue. Loud snoring can easily keep your partner up at night, in some cases, it can even disturb people sleeping in other rooms. If your snoring is keeping your household awake, don’t worry, there are some things you can try to minimise your nocturnal noise. Firstly, avoid sleeping on your back as this can make things a lot worse. Cut out alcohol, cigarettes and other relaxants and use an anti-snoring throat spray to give your loved ones a little relief from your night time chorus.

Sore throats can really vary in severity. While most of us can cope fairly easily with a sore throat that’s come as part of a cold, a serious bacterial infection is a whole different matter. Painful to the point of being distressing, bacterial sore throats often come complete with a fever, enlarged lymph nodes, white patches on the tonsils and a headache. You’ll need an antibiotic like penicillin to clear your infection and get you back to full health. Taking over-the-counter painkillers and natural remedies can help you to feel better while you wait for the antibiotics to kick in.
