The Pharmacy First scheme allows individuals to seek professional advice and treatment for a variety of common illnesses and conditions without needing a GP appointment. This is available to people aged over 1 year old in some areas, making healthcare support more accessible. 💊

• impetigo (aged 1 year and over)
• infected insect bites (aged 1 year and over)

• sore throat (aged 5 years and over)
• sinusitis (aged 12 years and over)
• urinary tract infections (UTIs) (women aged 16 to 64 years)

Testicular cancer is one of the most treatable cancers, especially when detected early. Awareness and self-checks are vital to spotting any unusual changes. While testicular cancer is more common in younger men, it can affect anyone, so staying informed and knowing what’s normal for you can make all the difference. 🎗️

Take charge of your health, know the signs, and get checked if something doesn’t feel right. The earlier you catch it, the easier it is to treat. Learn more and stay informed here:
