High blood pressure often has no symptoms, but it can increase your risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney disease and other serious health conditions. The good news is that it's easy to check and, if needed, it can often be managed with lifestyle changes or treatment.

During Know Your Numbers! Week, everyone is encouraged to find out their blood pressure reading. Whether you're 20 or 80, knowing your numbers is one of the best ways to take control of your health. This year's theme is "You know your age, do you know your numbers?"

You can have your blood pressure checked:
๐Ÿ’™ At your GP practice
๐Ÿ’™ At many local pharmacies
๐Ÿ’™ At home using a validated blood pressure monitor

If your blood pressure is high, don't panic. Your healthcare team can support you with advice, lifestyle changes and treatment if needed. Small changes, such as eating less salt, being more active and maintaining a healthy weight, can make a big difference. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿšถ

Don't wait for symptoms โ€“ because there often aren't any. Know your numbers and take control of your heart health today. โค๏ธ

Regular physical activity can help you adapt to the changes happening to your body, support your overall wellbeing and prepare your body for labour. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

If your pregnancy is uncomplicated, you can usually continue with your normal daily physical activity or exercise for as long as you feel comfortable. Activities such as walking, swimming and pregnancy-friendly exercise can all be great ways to keep moving. ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ

โ€ข Don't exhaust yourself โ€“ you should still be able to hold a conversation while exercising.
โ€ข Avoid activities where there's a risk of falling or being hit.
โ€ข After 16 weeks, avoid exercising while lying flat on your back for long periods.

If you weren't active before pregnancy, don't suddenly begin strenuous exercise. Start gently and build up gradually. ๐Ÿ‘

Every pregnancy is different, so speak to your midwife or healthcare professional if you're unsure which activities are suitable for you. ๐Ÿ’™

Need advice about a common health condition? Your local pharmacy could be your first stop ๐Ÿ’Š๐Ÿ’™

Highly trained pharmacists can provide expert advice, recommend treatments and, for some common conditions, offer NHS treatment through the Pharmacy First service without you needing to see a GP first ๐Ÿ‘

Pharmacy First can help with seven common conditions, including:

โ€ข Impetigo (aged 1 year and over)
โ€ข Infected insect bites (aged 1 year and over)
โ€ข Earache (aged 1 to 17 years)
โ€ข Sore throat (aged 5 years and over)
โ€ข Sinusitis (aged 12 years and over)
โ€ข Urinary tract infections (UTIs) (women aged 16 to 64 years)
โ€ข Shingles (aged 18 years and over)

Pharmacists are also available to help with many other everyday health concerns, including coughs, colds, hay fever, aches and pains, digestive problems, medicines advice, healthy living support and more ๐ŸŒฟ

If your condition needs further assessment, your pharmacist will make sure you're directed to the right NHS service. They can also identify when symptoms may need urgent medical attention โš ๏ธ

Choosing Pharmacy First can help you get expert advice more quickly while helping to keep GP appointments available for people who need them most ๐Ÿ’™

New Bus service ๐ŸšŒ

Service 27 will run from Paignton bus station to the Willows Torquay, but more importantly seeing a direct service to Torbay Hospital main entrance ๐ŸŽ‰

Service 27 will operate every 90 minutes Monday to Friday. We are hoping that this will make it a lot easier for those who are unable to drive to get to hospital appointments.

Persistent gut symptoms should never be ignored ๐Ÿ’œ

Crohnโ€™s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and early diagnosis can make a big difference

Symptoms can include ongoing diarrhoea, stomach pain, blood in poo, weight loss, and extreme tiredness ๐Ÿ’ฌ

Many people delay getting help due to embarrassment or uncertainty, but getting checked early is important ๐Ÿค

Trying for a baby? Understanding your menstrual cycle and when you ovulate can help you identify the days when you're most likely to become pregnant ๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿ’™

Ovulation usually happens around 10โ€“16 days before your next period starts. This is when an egg is released from the o***y and is available to be fertilised ๐Ÿฅš

Because s***m can survive in the body for several days, there is a "fertile window" during each cycle when pregnancy is more likely to occur ๐Ÿ“…

An ovulation calculator can help estimate when you may be ovulating based on the length of your menstrual cycle, making it a useful tool if you're trying to conceive ๐Ÿ‘

Remember that every person is different, and factors such as stress, illness and irregular periods can affect ovulation ๐Ÿ’ซ

If you've been trying to get pregnant and would like further advice, speak to your GP or healthcare professional ๐Ÿ’™
