World Hepatitis Day 2026 – Know Your Status. Protect Your Liver.
This 28 July, we join the global community in raising awareness about viral hepatitis a silent but serious infection that affects the liver and can lead to life-threatening conditions like cirrhosis and liver cancer if left undiagnosed
and untreated .

The good news? Hepatitis B is preventable with vaccination, and Hepatitis C is curable .
Yet millions remain unaware of their status because symptoms often don't appear until it's too late.

This World Hepatitis Day, we urge you to:
✅ Know the risks – hepatitis spreads through contaminated food, water, and bodily fluids
✅ Get tested – a simple blood test is all it takes
✅ Vaccinate – protect yourself and your family
✅ Seek care – early detection saves lives
At Duff Scott Hospital, we offer confidential testing and compassionate care.
Don't let silence stand in the way of your health.
Let's break the silence. Let's eliminate hepatitis.

🚽 Constipation – A Common Problem with Simple Solutions.

Constipation is a condition that many people experience at some point in their lives. It's generally defined as having infrequent bowel movements (fewer than three per week) or experiencing difficulty passing stool often with hard, dry, or lumpy consistency.
What causes it?
In most cases, constipation is linked to:
✅ A low-fibre diet – not enough fruits, vegetables, or whole grains
✅ Inadequate hydration – not drinking enough water
✅ Lack of physical activity
✅ Ignoring the urge to go to the toilet
✅ Certain medications or changes in routine

When to seek medical help:
While most cases resolve with lifestyle changes, you should consult a healthcare professional if you experience:
⚠ Constipation lasting more than three weeks
⚠ Severe abdominal pain or cramping
⚠ Blood in your stool
⚠ Unexplained weight loss
⚠ A sudden change in bowel habits, especially if you're over 50 Prevention tips:
Increase your fibre intake gradually

Stay hydrated – aim for at least 1.5 to 2 litres of water daily
Get regular exercise
Don't ignore the urge to use the toilet
