These cannot be treated with antibiotics so it’s best to make sure you’re stocked up with all the right remedies to get you on the mend! Your cabinet should have • Paracetamol • Aspirin • Ibuprofen • Anti-diarrhoea • Re-hydration mixtures • Indigestion remedies • Plasters • Thermometer DO NOT GIVE ASPIRIN TO CHILDREN UNDER 16 AS THIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS IN CHILDREN. Use antibiotics wisely Infections caused by viruses cannot be treated by antibiotics. Antibiotics are important medicines for infections caused by bacteria, and taking them when you don’t need to can lead to antibiotic resistance. The more often you use an antibiotic, the more likely the bacteria in your body will become resistant to it. 7 We provide care and support for younger adults with complex physical, mental health and behavioural needs.

But generally they will recover in a few days after getting lots of rest, drinking plenty of fluids and using over-the-counter remedies such as paracetamol. Flu can be more serious if you have a long term health condition, such as heart and kidney disease, asthma or diabetes, even if it is well managed. Or if you are pregnant, or over 65, as you are at greater risk of severe complications if you catch flu. This is why it is so important that people in these groups have the free flu vaccine. Children and flu For children, flu can also be very unpleasant and some children can develop a very high fever or complications such as bronchitis or pneumonia so it is also important that they are vaccinated.

It’s always proved difficult to find positive results against todays opponents, the last of which was in this fixture last season when I took temporary charge in the touch- line absences of Simon & Jason the win coming after an early goal wrestled the ini- tiative and saw us weather a second-half storm to run out 1 nil winners. Hallam’s current form looks very positive with just one defeat in their last seven games in what apparently was a feisty affair at home to a resurgent Rossington Main side. I understand Hallam ended the game with just eight players on the pitch after a sending-off and two sin-bins. Let’s hope todays clash isn’t quite so feisty. Last Saturday’s result against a “dogged” Dronfield Town was particularly disap- pointing given how we dominated play for virtually the whole of the ninety minutes, missed chances cost us badly.
