Self-Care

Did you know that one in five GP visits are for common conditions, such as backache, headache or cough?

The good news is that self care can help you manage most of these problems. It may mean you don’t have to spend time waiting to see your GP but can get on and start tackling your symptoms. Self care for common conditions can also help free up some of your GP’s time, making it easier to get an appointment when you have a more serious condition.

Every time you see a GP it costs the NHS £43, on average, for a 12-minute consultation
