When my son Charlie started complaining of earache, I felt unsure about the best way to help him. I knew it was important to get the right advice, so I decided to look on NHS 111 online. The information was incredibly helpful. 

Thanks to the advice on the website, we were able to manage Charlie’s earache at home. It was a relief to know we could care for him without needing a trip to the doctors. 

If you or a loved one needs urgent medical attention for something that isn’t life-threatening, visit 111.nhs.uk for the right help for your symptoms.   

You can access NHS 111 online on a smartphone, tablet or computer – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
