Warmer weather means more bugs – and bug bites! With the right precautions, you can keep mosquitoes, black flies, and ticks at bay while you enjoy the great outdoors.

To prevent bug bites, cover up with light coloured clothing, minimize exposure to bugs (by using mosquito netting over strollers to protect babies, for example) and use insect repellent.

When using bug spray, never spritz it directly onto your face, wash your hands after application and always read and follow the directions on the bottle. Get all the “deets” on insect repellent products containing DEET, from Health Canada:

Hemorrhoids are common and occur when the veins in the a**s and lower re**um become swollen and irritated. They can develop for many reasons, including pregnancy and older age. For many people, hemorrhoids can be very uncomfortable.

Ask our pharmacist for advice on how to manage hemorrhoids, including using over-the-counter treatments, such as topical creams, sitz baths and oral pain relievers, and when to see your doctor.

Changes in diet, lack of sleep, stress, and some medications (including certain antidepressants, treatments for incontinence, and allergies) can all cause constipation. It’s an issue that most people deal with at some point, and one that becomes more common as we age.

For occasional constipation, talk with our pharmacist who can recommend dietary and other lifestyle changes, as well as over-the-counter treatments. If you are experiencing problems often, our pharmacist can also advise on when you should speak with your doctor.
