I am often asked what I do on an initial newborn check!

Checking for tongue-tie is just one of the things I look for, especially with babies with feeding issues or unsettled babies. This is often missed by other professionals due to its complex diagnosis.

Tongue-tie (ankyloglossia) is a common problem involving a band of skin between the underside of the tongue and the floor of the mouth. If this band of skin is very tight it can restrict the movement of a baby’s tongue making breastfeeding difficult.

Tongue ties can be described as anterior or posterior. An anterior tongue tie is usually very easy to see as it holds down the tip of the tongue and can make the tongue look heart-shaped. A posterior tongue tie is found near the base of the tongue and so is often harder to notice.

It's great news for many that restrictions on everyday life are being lifted further and we can get back to doing some more of the things that we used to do.

The vaccination programme has achieved a great deal in weakening the link between Covid-19 infection and hospitalisation for most people.

There are however still many people in our community who remain at serious risk should they be infected with Covid-19, and whilst those people may well choose to minimise their personal risk and avoid clubs, pubs, restaurants, cinemas and sports events etc, they cannot avoid healthcare settings for treatment.

Our priority remains to keep everybody safe and we will be continuing to ask you to wear a mask and to respect our social distancing guidance in the practice.

We will continue to screen patients and have remote receptionist to reduce people in the waiting area. We will remain in PPE and extra decontamination steps will remain in place.

We hope this puts your mind at rest and helps to explain why the upcoming changes in society on the 19th July cannot be mirrored quite so quickly within healthcare.

Following current government guidelines regarding COVID-19, Osteopaths and other Allied Healthcare practitioners are permitted to remain open to provide healthcare for those that need it, and to help ease the burden on the NHS. At James Bibby & Associates we will remain open as we have throughout this pandemic with appropriate PPE and social distancing measures in place.
