If you're having a clear out of some clothes, there are several options of how to get rid of them...you could donate them to a charity shop, or place them into a charity bag. You could pop them into a clothes recycling bin, found at most larger supermarkets. You could gift them to someone else who might appreciate them, or even sell them online.

But please, do not dump them in a pharmacy car park!

Yes, that really has happened. We couldn't believe it either!

We're seeing a rise in children and infants with slapped cheek syndrome in the area - so here's everything you need to know...

------------

What is slapped cheek syndrome?

Slapped cheek syndrome, also known as fifth disease, is caused by a virus (parvovirus B19). This means the symptoms are very similar to a cold, and causes similar symptoms, such as a runny nose, a sore throat, tiredness, joint pain/stiffness, and a headache. The disease typically begins with these symptoms, followed by a red rash on the cheeks, which may spread to the torso or other areas of the body. The rash may appear spotty.

------------

Do I need to see a doctor?

You do NOT need to see a doctor. This disease should be treated with plenty of water and plenty of rest. Symptoms can be treated with paracetamol suspension, or other over-the-counter remedies such as anaesthetic throat spray or lozenges.

------------

Should I keep my child off school?

Once the red rash appears on the cheeks, the disease is no longer contagious. Therefore, if your child feels unwell and you suspect slapped cheek syndrome, keep them off school until the rash appears, then, if they feel well enough to attend school, there is no risk of transmission.

------------

Can adults catch it?

It is extremely rare for adults to contract slapped cheek syndrome, but not unheard of. If you are concerned that you may have caught this disease, treat it the same way you would treat your child: plenty of water and rest, paracetamol for pain, and OTC products for any other symptoms - however, you should seek medical advice if you are pregnant, have a blood disorder, or have a weakened immune system.

------------

When should I seek further advice?

Slapped cheek syndrome usually lasts for about 3 weeks. Seek medical advice if the disease persists much longer than this, or if you notice extremely pale skin, shortness of breath, or fainting.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

On Monday 25th November, we will be beginning the process of updating our operating systems and dispensing software at Packmoor Pharmacy. We believe this update will be of huge benefit to our patrons, including; greater access to pharmacy services and same-day appointments with the Pharmacist, as well as automating the dispensing process and reducing the possibility of human error.

We expect this period of transition to last around 2 weeks, during which time, staff will try their utmost to ensure delays are kept to a minimum.

Unfortunately, our new software will not allow us to order prescriptions on behalf of our patrons any longer, and anyone who contacts the pharmacy to order their prescription will be signposted to their GP practice.
