Building confidence: overcoming low self-esteem in teens

Being a teenager is tough – and also, unfortunately, completely unavoidable. During the turbulence of adolescence, teens go through a lot of confusing changes in their bodies and their hormones. This can cause changes in mood, habits, likes, and behaviour. However, your teen isn’t going through it alone; their peers and friends will also be going through this process, affecting their relationships and friendships.

In this article a leading GP with expertise in mental health shares insight on how to get your teen feeling confident and good about themselves.

Dupuytren's fasciectomy: How effective is it?

Dupuytren’s contracture is a hand condition where the connective tissue beneath the skin of the palm thickens and tightens, forming cords that can bend one or more fingers into a fixed position. While the condition often starts mildly, it can progress, limiting hand function and quality of life. A fasciectomy, or surgical removal of the affected tissue, is one of the primary treatments for more advanced cases of Dupuytren’s. The article explores the effectiveness of fasciectomy, potential benefits, and factors influencing outcomes.
