Patients can self-refer to the musculoskeletal (physio) service via the Your Physio website. The website has a number of useful leaflets and videos about joint and muscular conditions and it guides you through the self-referral process.

The NHS podiatry service in York and Selby locality is provided by the Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust via White Cross Court and other local community clinics. Patients can now self refer to use this service where appropriate. For more information on what conditions they can treat and to arrange a referral - visit their website here.

If you have been referred to the Pain Clinic, you may experience a wait of 10-12 months. They have developed a useful resource full of support for patients with chronic pain, including: pacing, guidance on limitations of pain medication for chronic pain, exercises, affect on mood and wellbeing.

A reminder that repeat prescription requests take 5 working days for the practice to action. Community pharmacies have their own waiting times as well so we always recommend you request your medication in very good time. We have some sickness in our Prescription Admin team today but we are working hard to action repeat requests as quickly as possible. Given the bank holidays this month, please request in good time - ideally before the end of the week.

Lung cancer is one of the most common and serious types of cancer. More than 43,000 people are diagnosed with the condition every year in the UK. There are usually no signs or symptoms in the early stages of lung cancer, but many people with the condition eventually develop symptoms including: > a persistent cough > coughing up blood > persistent breathlessness > unexplained tiredness and weight loss > an ache or pain when breathing or coughing If you have any of these symptoms, please get in touch. Lung cancer mainly affects older people. It's rare in people younger than 40. More than 4 out of 10 people diagnosed with lung cancer in the UK are aged 75 and older. Although people who have never smoked can develop lung cancer, smoking is the most common cause (accounting for more than 70 out of 100 cases). #lungcancerawarenessmonth https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/lung-cancer/

We are experiencing extraordinarily high demand for same day appointments today. A lot of people are getting in touch about sore throats, cough or viral symptoms. Most cough/cold symptoms will get better within a few days (some symptoms such as a cough can last up to 3 weeks). We do not prescribe antibiotics for most people with a cough/sore throats and will generally recommend self care: plenty fluids, rest and paracetamol/decongestants etc. If you are unsure about your symptoms, you can ask your local community pharmacist or NHS111. If you are a parent and unsure when to worry, here are some useful resources: ➡️ https://www.nhs.uk/symptoms/fever-in-children/ ➡️ https://www.healthiertogether.nhs.uk/child-under-5-years/fever
