Make sure you determine the underlying cause of sleep disorder before treating it. Usually, treatment on a short-term basis together with sleep hygiene is appropriate for transient insomnia, such as insomnia secondary to bereavement or acute hospitalisation.

Medications used for insomnia include antidepressants, nonbenzodiazepines, a melatonin agonist, and herbals. Start with small doses and check for side effects.

Ingrown toenails usually affect the great toe in young adults. The diagnosis of lateral and distal nail ingrowing is usually straightforward, based upon history and the clinical finding of a swollen, lateral nail fold, often associated with oozing and granulation tissue formation. There are nonsurgical (conservative) and surgical approaches to the management of ingrown toenails.

Patients should be educated about cutting the nail straight, without rounding the distal corners, to prevent recurrences or involvement of other nails. Wearing a wide toe box or open toe shoes is recommended.
Consult us on 0780367367 to learn more.

Health and wellbeing are determined not only by our genes and personal characteristics but also by the environment in which we live our lives.

Environments play an important role in determining the physical and mental capacity across a person’s life course and into older age and how well we adjust to loss of function and other forms of adversity that we may experience at different stages of life and in particular during older years.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, also called "NSAIDs," are medicines that relieve pain and reduce inflammation.
NSAIDs can help people who have conditions that cause ongoing pain, such as arthritis. They can also help people heal more quickly after an injury. But NSAIDs can cause problems so it's important to take the lowest dose for the shortest time.

People with certain medical conditions should avoid NSAIDs or use them with care. Talk to us if you use NSAIDs over the counter or if you need help on 0780367367.
