Have you remembered your sunscreen?☀️
Now that spring is in full swing the UV index is climbing up. Always make sure you avoid the sun at its peak from 10am - 3pm and wear sun lotion and sunnies 😎 Be sure to look out for changes to your moles such as a change in size, shape and colour and whether they are itchy or bleeding. If so, be sure to pop in and see your local doctor for a full skin check.

The best part about social distancing is that, not only do you help save lives, but you get to spend time reconnecting with the people and things that you love.
My furry friend here is sending you all positive vibes. 💖

What are you watching?
My top tip to help your mental health today is to remember that the news is incentivised to keep you watching. Whilst it is important to get information about the situation, being over-exposed to large amounts of the same information can be very taxing.

As our firefighters continue the heroic job of containing bushfires, many people may be affected by smoke.
Signs of smoke irritation include itchy eyes, sore throat, runny nose and coughing. Those with pre-existing medical conditions such as asthma may have worsened symptoms of wheezing, chest tightness and difficulty breathing. If this is you it is very important to continue your prescribed medication and seek medical help.
To reduce your exposure, stay indoors and close the windows and doors. If you are using an air conditioner switch it to recycle or recirculate to reduce the smoke indoors.
If you or anyone around you is concerned by their symptoms please pop by and see me in clinic
