Insect Bite

Insect Bite

An insect bite occurs when an insect pierces the skin, typically to feed or as a defensive response, often injecting saliva or venom in the process.

Sinusitis

Sinusitis

Sinusitis, commonly referred to as a sinus infection, is the inflammation of the sinus cavities—air-filled spaces located behind the forehead, cheeks, and eyes. This condition typically occurs when these cavities become blocked and infected, resulting in discomfort and a range of symptoms. As a prevalent health issue, a clear understanding of sinusitis is essential for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
Sore throat

Sore throat

A sore throat, medically known as pharyngitis, is characterized by irritation, scratchiness, or pain in the throat, which often intensifies with swallowing. Although typically a symptom of an underlying condition, recognising its causes and associated symptoms is important for appropriate diagnosis and effective management.
Urinary Tract Infection

Urinary Tract Infection

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that can affect any part of the urinary system, including the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. UTIs are more common in women, largely due to anatomical differences such as a shorter urethra. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment—typically with antibiotics—are crucial for relieving symptoms and preventing potential complications.
