Warning signs of diabetic foot problems
Numbness, tingling, a cut that heals slowly, colour change or swelling in the foot are reasons to see a doctor promptly. Daily foot checks and well-fitting footwear help prevent serious complications.
Asthma vs. allergy: how are they different?
Allergy is the body's reaction to a trigger such as dust or pollen, while asthma is a condition of the airways that can be triggered by allergies. A pulmonology review and a lung function test can tell them apart.
