Do you know the signs and symptoms of prostate cancer?

This March, the Humber and North Yorkshire Cancer Alliance team is out and about across our communities, talking about prostate cancer – who’s most at risk, what to look out for, and why speaking to your GP sooner rather than later could make all the difference.

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK. 1 in 8 men will develop it and the risk is even higher for Black men and those with a family history. It often has no symptoms at first, which is why knowing what’s normal for you is so important.

Patient representative Richard’s message is simple: don’t ignore changes, and don’t put off that conversation.

The team are visiting community groups across Humber and North Yorkshire throughout March.

📍Find out where the team will be this month and learn more about the signs and symptoms in our latest press release.

Urgent care, not A&E.

Urgent Treatment Centres treat children and adults with minor injuries and illnesses that need urgent attention but aren’t life- or limb-threatening.

They’re a good alternative to A&E when you need help quickly but it’s not an emergency.

If you contact NHS 111, they can assess your symptoms and, if appropriate, book you an appointment at your nearest Urgent Treatment Centre, often saving you time and waiting. They can also advise on other nearby centres if needed.

Remember to talk before you walk
Call NHS 111 to check the right place to go and get the care you need, sooner.

If you think you need medical help right now, 111 online can tell you what to do next. Visit 👉 https://letsgetbetter.co.uk/get-the-right-care/

Your GP surgery is here for you.

Your local GP surgery offers a wide range of family health services - from advice on staying well and preventing illness, to vaccinations, examinations, treatment and prescriptions. They can also refer you to other health services when specialist care is needed.

GP practices have a whole team ready to help, including nurses, advanced nurse practitioners, pharmacists and healthcare assistants. You don’t always need to see a GP -the receptionist can help guide you to the right professional for your needs.

Many practices offer urgent appointments, evening and weekend services, as well as online booking, repeat prescriptions and online consultations. Remember to keep your appointment or let the surgery know if you need to cancel or change it.

Visit 👉 https://letsgetbetter.co.uk/get-the-right-care/ or your GP practice website to find out what services are available and how to access them.
