From Chickenpox to Shingles: The Full Story

Did you know that the same virus that causes chickenpox can stay inactive in the body and appear again years later as shingles?

While chickenpox usually occurs in childhood, shingles occurs mainly in adults, and is often triggered when the immune system is weakened by age or stress. It can cause painful rashes or blisters, usually on one side of the body.

A shingles vaccine is available to help reduce the risk of developing shingles and its complications. Speak with your doctor to find out if it’s suitable for you.

STD Screening for Women: Why It’s Important?

Some infections may not have any symptoms in the early stages. Regular health screening can detect infections early, especially for women planning marriage, starting a new relationship, or experiencing unusual changes in their health.

An STD screening can help identify conditions that may otherwise go unnoticed. Early testing allows for proper treatment and prevents possible complications in the future.

Stay Protected: How PrEP Supports Your Health Goals

When planning for the future, health should be part of that journey too.

Protect Yourself and Your Loved Ones with a Flu Shot

The flu is more than just a seasonal inconvenience—it can lead to high fever, body aches, fatigue, and, in some cases, serious complications like pneumonia or worsening of existing health conditions. These risks can be higher for young children, older adults, and individuals with chronic illnesses, such as Diabetes and Heart disease.

Getting a flu shot helps reduce the likelihood of falling ill and can make the symptoms milder if you catch the virus. By staying protected, you're also helping to reduce the spread of the flu to those who may be more vulnerable.

At Cross Street Medical Clinic, we provide flu vaccinations as part of regular health maintenance. It's a simple step that supports your well-being and the health of those around you.

If you plan to travel, care for others, or want to be prepared for the season, consider arranging your vaccination.
