January asks a lot from us.
New resolutions. Big expectations. Full energy instantly.

But reality is different. After the holidays, our bodies and minds are still adjusting. Days are short, sunlight is scarce, vitamin D levels drop, motivation dips, and mood often follows. January even has names for it: Blue Monday (the so-called saddest day of the year) and Quitting Day (when most resolutions are abandoned).

And that’s not a failure, it’s human.

At Healthcare Barcelona, we see this every year. Many people want to build healthier habits, exercise more, drink less alcohol, take better care of themselves, but struggle with time, energy, injuries, or simply not knowing where to start.

That’s where we can help 🤍
* Thinking about changing habits or reducing alcohol? Our medical team can guide you safely
* Started training again and got injured? Our physiotherapists can help you recover and prevent setbacks
* Want to run, move, or exercise without overdoing it? We support sustainable, injury-free training
* Maybe January is the right moment for a health check-up, not pressure, just prevention

Health isn’t about perfection or January miracles.
It’s about support, balance, and doing what works for you.

If this month feels heavy, you don’t have to manage it alone.
We’re here to help. Step by step.

November is Movember: A Month Dedicated to Men’s Health Awareness

At Healthcare Barcelona, we stand with the global Movember movement, an initiative dedicated to improving men’s health, raising awareness, and encouraging early detection of key conditions that affect millions worldwide.

Movember focuses on three major pillars:
🔹 Prostate cancer
🔹 Testicular cancer
🔹 Men’s mental health & su***de prevention

🔹 Key Facts About Men’s Health

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men globally.

Testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men aged 15–40.

Men die by su***de at significantly higher rates, often due to social stigma around expressing emotions or seeking help.

Many health concerns in men go undetected because symptoms can be subtle, or because men often delay medical visits.

🔹 When to Seek Medical Advice

You should consider a check-up if you experience:

Urinary changes, pelvic discomfort, or family history of prostate cancer.

Testicular lumps, swelling, or persistent pain.

Persistent stress, anxiety, loss of motivation, mood changes, or sleep disturbances.

A general decline in energy, unexplained weight changes, or ongoing fatigue.

Taking action early can make a major difference in treatment outcomes and overall well-being.

🔹 How You Can Prioritize Your Health This Movember

Schedule a preventive check-up. Annual screenings help detect issues early.

Talk openly. Share how you feel, physically and mentally, with trusted people.

Support your mental health. Speak with a professional if you’re feeling overwhelmed.

Stay active. Regular exercise supports both physical and mental health.

Encourage the men around you to take care of themselves and seek medical advice when needed.

This Movember, take a step toward better health.
If you have concerns or want a preventive assessment, our multidisciplinary team at Healthcare Barcelona is here to support you with comprehensive, international-standard care.

Why Does Your Nose Run in Cold Weather?

Even without a cold or nasal congestion, many people notice a runny nose when temperatures drop. This is actually a normal physiological response.

The Role of the Nose

The nose warms, humidifies, and filters the air before it reaches the lungs. When the air is cold and dry, the body adapts:

Blood vessels inside the nose dilate to warm the incoming air.

The nasal glands produce more mucus to add moisture.

Condensation forms inside the nostrils, resulting in a clear, watery discharge.

This is known as cold-induced rhinitis or vasomotor rhinitis.
It is harmless and not a sign of infection.

Why Are Some People More Sensitive?

Several factors can increase this response:

Greater nerve sensitivity to temperature changes

A history of allergies or chronic rhinitis

Exposure to dry or windy environments

Wearing glasses, which can influence humidity around the nose

How to Reduce Cold-Induced Runny Nose

Cover your nose and mouth with a scarf to warm the air before inhaling.

Avoid sudden changes in temperature when possible.

Use a humidifier indoors to maintain adequate moisture levels.

A runny nose in the cold simply means your respiratory system is doing its job.

❄️ Pourquoi le nez coule-t-il quand il fait froid ?

Même sans rhume, beaucoup constatent un écoulement nasal dès que les températures baissent. C’est en réalité une réaction physiologique normale.

🌬️ Le rôle du nez

Le nez réchauffe, humidifie et filtre l’air avant qu’il n’atteigne les poumons. Lorsque l’air extérieur est froid et sec, le corps s’adapte :

Les vaisseaux sanguins du nez se dilatent pour réchauffer l’air.

Les glandes nasales produisent davantage de mucus pour l’humidifier.

L’humidité se condense dans les narines, créant un écoulement clair.

Ce phénomène porte un nom : la rhinite du froid (ou rhinite vasomotrice).
➡️ C’est totalement bénin et ne signe pas une infection.

👥 Pourquoi certaines personnes y sont plus sensibles ?

Plusieurs facteurs peuvent accentuer cette réaction :

Une plus grande sensibilité des nerfs du nez au froid

Une tendance aux allergies ou à la rhinite chronique

Un environnement plus sec ou plus venté

Le port de lunettes (la condensation peut augmenter l’humidité locale)

🧣 Comment réduire l’écoulement nasal ?

Couvrez votre nez et votre bouche avec une écharpe pour réchauffer l’air.

Évitez les variations brusques de température.

Hydratez l’air intérieur si nécessaire.

Le nez qui coule au froid est un signe… que votre système respiratoire fait bien son travail !

The Myth of “Smoking Helps Me Relax” — Here’s the Truth ✨

Many smokers believe that ci******es help them calm down.
But what if the relaxation you feel has nothing to do with the cigarette at all?

Let’s break the myth 👇

🧠 Myth: “Smoking relaxes me.”
💡 Truth: The sensation of relief comes from deep breathing, not the ni****ne.
When you inhale, you take a slow, controlled breath — and that activates your body’s relaxation system.

🫁 Myth: “A cigarette reduces my stress.”
💡 Truth: Ni****ne actually increases your heart rate and stress hormones.
Any “relief” you feel is just stopping the withdrawal symptoms that ni****ne itself created.

😌 What really relaxes you:

Slow, deep breathing

Taking a moment away from stress

Brief mental pauses

Rituals that feel familiar

🔥 You can get all of that — without harming your body.

At Healthcare Barcelona, we help patients understand the body’s responses and find healthier ways to manage stress.
If you’re thinking of quitting or want support, we’re here to help.

November: The Month Without To***co

Every year, many countries dedicate November to raising awareness about the benefits of quitting smoking — a global movement known as “The Month Without To***co.”

Even taking a one-month break from smoking can significantly improve lung function, circulation, and energy levels. It’s also a great opportunity to start building healthier, lasting habits — and you don’t have to do it alone.

At Healthcare Barcelona – International Medical Center, our doctors are here to support you with medical guidance, personalized strategies, and follow-up care. We understand that quitting isn’t easy, but small steps make a big difference.

One simple tip we share with our patients is the 3-3-3 rule:
• Wait 3 minutes when a craving strikes — it often passes.
• Take 3 deep breaths to refocus and calm your body.
• Drink a glass of water to distract and refresh yourself.

This November, join millions around the world in taking the first step toward a smoke-free life — with the full support of our team.

🕒 As the days grow shorter and sunlight exposure decreases, our bodies produce less vitamin D, an essential nutrient that supports bone health, immune function, and mood regulation.

This reduction, combined with the seasonal time change, can affect our circadian rhythm, often leading to fatigue, low mood, or decreased concentration.

At Healthcare Barcelona, our medical team can help you adapt to this seasonal shift. Through personalized assessments, including vitamin D level testing and lifestyle guidance, we can help restore your balance and energy levels during the darker months. 🌤️

Take care of your health this season. Your body and mind will thank you. 💙

Early detection saves lives 💗
Here’s how you can do a simple breast self-check at home:

👋 Step 1: Stand in front of a mirror with your shoulders straight and arms on your hips. Look for changes in size, shape, or color — any dimpling, swelling, or skin changes.

🖐️ Step 2: Raise your arms and check again for the same changes.

🤲 Step 3: Gently feel your breasts while lying down, using the pads of your fingers in a circular motion — from your collarbone down to your ribs, and from your armpit to your cleavage.

🚿 Step 4: Repeat the check while standing (many find it easiest in the shower).

🩺 When to do it:
Once a month, ideally a few days after your period ends — when your breasts are least tender.

📅 When to see a doctor:
If you notice any lump, ni**le discharge, skin dimpling, or pain that feels unusual — book an appointment.

At Healthcare Barcelona, our doctors are here to help you understand what’s happening, decide if imaging tests are needed, and guide you on the next steps.
Please note — consultations are by appointment only.

💕 Let’s make awareness a habit — not just for October, but all year round.
