TRUE or FALSE? 👣

Foot care is especially important for patients with diabetes.

✅ TRUE!

Diabetes can reduce blood flow and damage nerves in the feet, making it harder to notice cuts, blisters, or infections. Even small foot problems can become serious if left untreated.

🩺 Diabetic Foot Care Tips:


• Check your feet daily for cuts, redness, or swelling


• Keep feet clean and dry


• Wear properly fitting shoes and clean socks
• Never walk barefoot


• Trim toenails carefully


• Schedule regular foot exams with your healthcare provider

Taking care of your feet is an important part of staying healthy with diabetes! 💙

🎧👂 Swimmer’s Ear Awareness: What You Need to Know About Otitis Externa 👂🌊

Otitis externa, also known as “Swimmer’s Ear,” is an infection or inflammation of the outer ear canal. It can happen after swimming, excessive moisture in the ear, or even from using cotton swabs too deeply.

⚠️ Common Symptoms Include:

• Ear pain or tenderness


• Itching inside the ear


• Redness or swelling


• Drainage from the ear


• Trouble hearing or feeling “plugged”

💡 How to Help Prevent Otitis Externa:

✅ Dry ears thoroughly after swimming or showering


✅ Tilt your head to help water drain out


✅ Avoid putting cotton swabs or objects into the ear canal


✅ Use ear plugs when swimming if recommended


✅ Keep earbuds and hearing devices clean

👨‍⚕️ If you’re experiencing ear pain, drainage, or discomfort, don’t ignore it. Early treatment can help prevent worsening infection and relieve symptoms quickly.

📞 Contact Core Care Family Medical if you or your child may have symptoms of Swimmer’s Ear!

🪥 TRUE or FALSE 🦠

You should replace your toothbrush after being sick.

✅ TRUE!

After illnesses like a cold, flu, strep throat, or other infections, germs can linger on your toothbrush. Replacing it can help reduce the chance of reintroducing bacteria or viruses back into your system.

📌 Healthy Toothbrush Tips:

• Replace your toothbrush every 3–4 months

• Store it upright and allow it to air dry

• Avoid sharing toothbrushes

• Replace it sooner if bristles are frayed

Your oral health is an important part of your overall health! 😁🦷

May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Mental wellness affects how we think, feel, cope with stress, connect with others, and care for ourselves every day.

Did you know?

• 1 in 5 adults experience a mental health condition each year


• Stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout can affect anyone


• Asking for help is a sign of strength — not weakness

Ways to support your mental health:

✔ Get enough sleep


✔ Stay physically active


✔ Talk to someone you trust


✔ Take breaks when needed


✔ Practice self-care without guilt


✔ Reach out for professional support when necessary

You do not have to struggle alone. Checking in on yourself and others can make a powerful difference.

At Core Care Family Medical, we believe caring for your health includes caring for your mind too. 💚

🚰 TRUE OR FALSE 🚰

Dark urine can be a sign of dehydration.

✅ TRUE!

When your body doesn’t have enough fluids, your urine can become darker yellow or amber in color. Staying hydrated helps your body function properly and can improve energy, focus, and overall health.

💧 A good goal is to drink enough water so your urine is pale yellow in color.

⚠️ Keep in mind: Certain medications, vitamins, or medical conditions can also cause dark urine. If you notice persistent dark urine, pain, or other symptoms, it’s important to speak with your healthcare provider.
