𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥 𝗜𝗦 𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘! 🥸

Gentlemen, you officially have an excuse to grow that moustache!

But behind the questionable facial hair is a seriously important message.

𝗠𝗲𝗻’𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀!

This November, we’re raising awareness about prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men’s mental health.

So grow it, show it and support it. And while you’re at it, don’t forget to look after the man behind the moustache.

As Breast Cancer Awareness Month comes to an end, there's one more message we'd like to share: breast cancer doesn't only affect women. ♀️🎗️♂️

Although it's rare, men can develop breast cancer too. Because most men don't know this, changes are often ignored and the cancer is found later than it should be. The signs to look out for are similar to those in women: a lump or thickening in the chest or under the ni**le (usually painless), a ni**le that turns inward or has a discharge, changes to the skin, or a lump in the armpit.

If you notice any of these changes, please don't feel embarrassed and don't wait. Speak to your pharmacist, doctor or clinic. And to everyone reading this, share it with the men in your life – the fathers, brothers, husbands, sons and friends.

Would you recognise a stroke if it happened in front of you? Remember F.A.S.T.

F - Face drooping on one side
A - Arm weakness
S - Speech that is slurred or confused
T - Time to call for help

⚠️ A stroke is a medical emergency, and every minute counts. The sooner someone receives treatment, the better their chances of recovery. If you notice these signs, don't wait to see whether they pass – call 112 from a cellphone or 10177 for an ambulance straight away.

Please save this post and share it with your family, friends and colleagues. It only takes a moment to learn, and it could save a life.

Many strokes can be prevented, and the everyday choices we make really do add up. (But no, we're not asking you to run a marathon or give up the Sunday braai! 😉)

👉 Check out these four habits that help to lower your risk: get moving on most days, eat less salt and more fresh food, stop smoking and limit alcohol, and take your medication as prescribed.

If you're on chronic medication for blood pressure, diabetes or cholesterol, taking it exactly as prescribed is one of the most important things you can do. Skipping doses or running out between repeats can put you at risk without you even realising it.

Your pharmacist can help you stay on top of your repeats and answer any questions about your medication. You don't have to change everything at once – start with one small habit this week. 🧡

When someone you love is facing breast cancer, it can be hard to know what to say or do.

Often, the most helpful support is practical. Offer a lift to an appointment, cook a meal, help with the school run, collect their medication, or simply sit and listen. Being specific helps too: 'I'm bringing supper on Thursday' is so much easier to accept than 'Let me know if you need anything'.

And if you are the one going through treatment, please remember that it's okay to say yes when help is offered.

To everyone walking this road, and everyone walking beside them: your neighbourhood pharmacy is here for you – whether you need advice, your medication or just a friendly face. 🫶

You know your ID number, your PIN and probably the neighbour's Wi-Fi password... but do you know your blood pressure?

⚠️ High blood pressure is one of the leading risk factors for stroke, and it often has no symptoms at all. Many people feel perfectly healthy and have no idea that their blood pressure is too high. That's why it's so important to know your numbers. The only way to find out is to have your blood pressure measured – and it only takes a few minutes.

As we count down to World Stroke Day on 29 October, we're encouraging everyone in the neighbourhood to get checked. Visit your nearest The Local Choice Pharmacy and ask about a quick blood pressure check, and chat to your pharmacist about what your numbers mean and what to do next. 🫶
