Acid Reflux/Indigestion
£35.00 Read moreWhat is Acid Reflux/Indigestion?
Acid reflux, also known as indigestion or heartburn, is a condition where stomach acid flows back into the esophagus. This can lead to a burning sensation in the chest, often referred to as heartburn. Indigestion typically involves discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen and may include symptoms like bloating, belching, and nausea.
The lower esophageal sphincter (LES) is a muscle that separates the esophagus from the stomach. It normally opens to allow food to enter the stomach and then closes to prevent the backflow of stomach acid into the oesophagus. When the LES doesn’t function properly, stomach acid can rise into the oesophagus, causing the symptoms associated with acid reflux.

What is a Chest Infection?
Chest infections are a frequent ailment that commonly develops after a cold or the flu, especially during the winter months. Most chest infection symptoms only last a few days and clear up on their own, but more acute instances can lead to more significant health concerns.
Coughing typically lasts seven to ten days, although it can last up to three weeks. Symptoms can include pain in chest, coughing etc. When viruses or bacteria attack the airways or lungs, chest infections occur. Pneumonia and bronchitis are two of the most prevalent forms of respiratory infections. They can be caused by viruses or bacteria, and they are often transferred by breathing virus or bacterium particles that have been coughed or sneezed out by someone else. Chest infection pneumonia requires antibiotic treatment as this is due to a bacterial cause, where as bronchitis is generally caused by viruses so does not require antibiotic treatment.
Having a cold with chest pain may also be a sign for chest infection.

Chlamydia (STI)
From: £19.00 Read moreConcerned that you might have an STI? Unsure about your next steps? We’re here to help.
What is Chlamydia?
Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. It often doesn’t cause noticeable symptoms, making it easy to spread unknowingly. Chlamydia can affect both men and women and is primarily transmitted through unprotected sexual contact, including vaginal, anal, and oral sex. It is very common in sexually active young adults and teenagers. The majority of STIs can be swiftly and readily treated if discovered early. If STI’s are left untreated, they might worsen and lead to dire consequences. You put yourself and others at danger by disregarding STIs and failing to get checked out each time you engage in unprotected sex.
If you already have a positive test result for chlamydia, our clinician’s can provide antibiotic treatment, please book a consultation.
For Gonorrhoea, HIV and Syphilis, you should attend your local Sexual Health clinic.
