Breast cancer can affect anyone, and noticing a change early can make an important difference. Take a few minutes regularly to look and feel for anything that is new or unusual for you.

Look out for changes such as:
โ€ข A new lump or swelling in the breast, chest or armpit
โ€ข Changes in the size or shape of your breast
โ€ข Dimpling or changes to the skin
โ€ข Changes to the ni**le, including a rash or ni**le turning inwards
โ€ข Unusual ni**le discharge

Most breast changes are not cancer, but ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜† ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜„ ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐˜‚๐—ป๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—น๐—ฑ ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฏ๐˜† ๐—ฎ ๐—š๐—ฃ.

At Greyfriars Surgery, we are here to listen to your concerns and help you get the appropriate assessment if you notice something that doesn't feel right.

Remember to attend your breast screening appointments when invited. Screening can detect breast cancer before you notice symptoms yourself.

As flu season approaches, we're encouraging everyone who is eligible to book their NHS flu vaccination at Greyfriars Surgery.

The flu vaccine is offered every year because the flu viruses change, and protection reduces over time. Having your vaccine every year gives you the best protection against the most common strains circulating that winter.

The vaccine usually starts working around 14 days after your vaccination, so it's important not to leave it too late.

You may be eligible for a free NHS flu vaccine if you:
โ€ข Are aged 65 or over
โ€ข Have certain long-term health conditions
โ€ข Are pregnant
โ€ข Live in a care home
โ€ข Are a registered unpaid carer
โ€ข Are in another eligible NHS group

Did you know?
โ€ข You can have your flu vaccine at the same appointment as your COVID-19 or Shingles vaccine if you're eligible.
โ€ข The injected flu vaccine cannot give you flu because it does not contain live flu viruses.

By choosing to have your vaccination at Greyfriars Surgery, you're being vaccinated by the team who know your medical history and care for you throughout the year.

If you know someone who is eligible, please share this post or tag them below.

Cholesterol matters. Knowing your numbers can help you take steps towards protecting your heart health.

At Greyfriars Surgery, we can support you with understanding your cholesterol and discussing ways to reduce your cardiovascular risk where appropriate.

Small changes can make a difference, including eating a balanced diet, being more active, maintaining a healthy weight, stopping smoking and reducing alcohol.

For additional support, One You Lincolnshire offers free healthy lifestyle services, including support with weight management, physical activity, alcohol and stopping smoking.

Protect yourself from flu this winter

You can give yourself the best protection with a flu vaccine. Think of it as protective armour, helping your body prepare to fight flu and reducing your risk of becoming seriously unwell.

If you are eligible for an NHS flu vaccination, we encourage you to get protected before flu begins to circulate widely.

At Greyfriars Surgery, we are offering flu vaccinations to eligible patients.

Please share this post with family and friends who may be eligible for their flu vaccination.

Stay strong. Get vaccinated.
