Heat Rash
How can you tell the difference between a heat rash and something else such as a meningitis rash or measles rash for example? Thanks (Natalie)

Is ED linked with heart problems/diabetes?
I have read that ED is linked to heart problems and diabetes. Is this true? If so, will I be tested for these conditions when I visit my doctor? Thanks (Peter)

Unable to keep erection
I can get an erection but then I can't keep it. I really don’t want to go to the doctor to discuss with anyone as I'm too embarrassed, but I need to find a solution. Please help (Mike)

Hair thinning with age
I've always had quite thick hair, and never experienced hair loss/thinning before, but since turning 70 I've certainly noticed my hair has got a lot thinner and finer. I suppose it is just a symptom of the aging process but is there anything I can do to help with this? Thank you (Christine)

Post-COVID hair loss
I had covid a few months ago and have noticed my hair falling out - I have looked this up as a common symptom but can't see what I should be doing about it or is just wait for it to come back?

How can I help my son's sensitive skin?
My son (14) cannot dry his legs with any sort of towel (cotton or microfibre) and has to drip dry otherwise the skin on his legs becomes really painful, itchy and stings, so much so that he’s in tears for two hours afterwards. The same feeling occurs when he wears football socks or chinos but seems ...

Molluscum contagiosum
My 9 year old granddaughter has been diagnosed with this and its been spreading for a few months now. Her doctor said that it would go away on its own and hasn't prescribed anything to ease this. Apparently, a few more children in her class have the same condition. She has been to a few play dates a...

Lack of sleep
I am going through a period of not sleeping well and when I count up the hours I sleep per night (and mostly interrupted) it is only between 5 and half to six hours maximum. Everything I have read has said you should have 7 to 8 hours. At the moment I feel fine although slightly stressed that my nor...

Is it still stress?
I had been going through a period of stress last year and found it very difficult to sleep – both getting to sleep and sleep quality – tossing and turning and staying asleep. That stress has basically passed now but I still seem to have some residue issues left – I can go to sleep now easily but sti...

Bloating
I started getting bloating about 10 years ago when I hit my mid 30’s and was told by the doctor it was IBS. They advised that I go away and spending time thinking about my diet. I was very careful in what I ate and then slowly the bloating stopped and all was fine which was great! However, in recent...
