This summer, donโ€™t take any chances with your skin! ๐ŸŒž

Protect yourself from harmful UV rays by using SPF 50 sunscreen. Itโ€™s the best defence against sunburn, premature aging, and skin damage. Donโ€™t forget to reapply every 2 hours, especially after swimming or sweating!

Your skin will thank you!

Managing Your Diabetes This Festive Season ๐ŸŽ„

The holiday season is a time for celebration, but it can also pose challenges for those managing diabetes. While enjoying the festivities, itโ€™s important to keep your blood sugar levels stable. Be mindful of portion sizes, choose healthier options when possible, and stay active with walks or holiday activities.

Avoid sugary drinks and make hydration a priority to help keep your levels in check.

If you have any concerns, need advice, or require repeat prescriptions, be sure to visit Umhlanga GP before the holiday closures. Weโ€™re here to help you manage your health during this busy season!

Recurring Ear Infections โ€” What You Should Know
Frequent ear infections can affect both children and adults, often leading to discomfort, temporary hearing loss, or a feeling of fullness in the ear.

Common Causes:
โ€ข Repeated colds or sinus infections
โ€ข Allergies or nasal congestion
โ€ข Water trapped in the ear after swimming (โ€œswimmerโ€™s earโ€)
โ€ข Wax build-up or irritation from earphones and earbuds
Symptoms to look out for:

โ€ข Ear pain or pressure
โ€ข Itching or drainage from the ear
โ€ข Temporary hearing loss
โ€ข Fever (especially in children)

Regular ear infections may need medical attention to identify the underlying cause โ€” whether itโ€™s infection, inflammation, or ear canal irritation from water exposure.
If you or your child suffer from ongoing ear infections, we can help with assessment and treatment.
