Aches & Pains. Don’t let life’s niggles wear you down

Arthritis

Arthritis isn’t a single disease, but rather a term used to describe a range of diseases that affect the joints. Common symptoms of arthritis include: joint pain, swelling, and stiffness, reduced movement of the joints, warmth and redness of the skin over the affected joint, muscle wasting and weakness around the affected joint.

Back Pain

Back pain, particularly lower back pain (lumbago), is a common condition that affects around a third of the UK population each month. There are many different causes of back pain, and it often goes away without treatment, but it may be a sign of an underlying medical condition.

Tonsillitis can usually be treated at home and very rarely requires a tonsillectomy (removal of tonsils).

UTI

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are very common in women - some experts predict that around 50 to 60% of women will develop a UTI at least once in their lifetime.

Nail Infections

Fungal nail infections are common and typically aren’t too severe but can take a while to treat. They usually affect your toenails, but you can get them on your fingernails, too. Nail infections can sometimes start at the nail's edge and often spread to the middle of the nail, making the nail appear discoloured, resulting in some parts of the nail becoming thicker.
