Tuberculosis (TB) is uncommon in Australia, but awareness matters—especially for people who:
• have lived in or travelled to countries where TB is more common
• work in high-risk settings

If you’re planning travel or have health questions after returning, we can guide you on what to check and when. We also offer Travel Health appointments.

Painful periods aren’t something you should have to “push through”.
Possible signs to discuss with your GP:

🤧 𝐒𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐲 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬, 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐬𝐞?
Autumn can still be a big season for allergies—and if you have asthma, hay fever can make symptoms harder to control.
Quick tips:
✅ Start allergy meds early (don’t wait until it’s severe)
✅ Shower after being outdoors (pollen removal)
✅ Wash bedding weekly
✅ Check your asthma plan + inhaler technique
If symptoms are impacting sleep, work, or your breathing, book in—there are options beyond “just put up with it”.

😴 𝐒𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚 𝐥𝐮𝐱𝐮𝐫𝐲 — 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞.
If your sleep is off, your mood, immunity, appetite, concentration and blood pressure can all take a hit.
Try this tonight:
🌙 Keep the same wake-up time (even weekends)
📵 Put screens away 60 mins before bed
☕ Avoid caffeine after lunch
🛏️ Use the bed for sleep (not scrolling or emails)
🌡️ Cool, dark room = better quality sleep
🚩 Book a chat with your GP if you:
• snore loudly or stop breathing in sleep
• wake unrefreshed most mornings
• rely on alcohol to “switch off”
• have ongoing insomnia > 3 weeks
We can help you work out what’s driving it and your best next steps.

🍂 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗺𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝘁: 𝟯 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵
As the weather shifts, it’s a perfect time to check in on the basics that keep you feeling your best.

✅ 1) Blood pressure check
High blood pressure often has no symptoms—but it can quietly affect heart, kidney and brain health.

✅ 2) Medication review
If you’ve added supplements, changed routines, or feel “not quite right”, a quick review can help you stay safe and on track.

✅ 3) Skin check plan
We still see plenty of UV exposure lingering into autumn. If you’ve noticed any changing spots, don’t put it off.

If you’re not sure what appointment length you need, our reception team can help you book the right one. 📞 (02) 4971 6663 or online https://www.swanseachanneldoctors.com.au/
