Health experts are warning that unusual dark lines under fingernails—called splinter haemorrhages—may be an early sign of infective endocarditis, a rare but potentially fatal heart infection. The condition affects the inner lining of the heart and is often caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream. While the symptom may look minor or be mistaken for nail trauma, recurring lines without injury should not be ignored. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial, as untreated endocarditis can lead to heart failure or stroke. Good hygiene, especially dental care, helps reduce the risk.

A leading nutritionist, Dr. Federica Amati, says caffeine-rich foods like coffee, tea, and dark chocolate may help reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease and high blood pressure. Backed by scientific studies, moderate caffeine intake is linked to improved cardiovascular health and lower disease progression. While genetics affect individual tolerance to caffeine, even decaf versions offer health benefits due to plant compounds. The message: enjoy your caffeine in moderation—it’s more than just an energy boost.

Health experts warn that repetitive or aimless walking—especially when someone leaves home unexpectedly—can be an early sign of dementia. Often misunderstood as “wandering,” this behaviour may reflect unmet needs, confusion, or memory loss. Caregivers are encouraged to monitor walking patterns, identify triggers, and take steps to ensure safety while supporting the person’s independence. Early recognition and intervention can help prevent harm and improve quality of life.

Pharmacist Sultan Dajani warns that summer poses serious risks to eye health due to harmful triggers like UV rays, pollen, dehydration, and pool chemicals. These can lead to painful and persistent conditions such as conjunctivitis, styes, and blepharitis if left untreated. He urges the public to wear UV-protective sunglasses, stay hydrated, avoid rubbing eyes, use goggles while swimming, and practice good hygiene to prevent eye irritation and infections during the warmer months.

Food engineer Mariana Zapién advises washing rice at least three to five times before cooking to reduce arsenic levels by up to 30–45%. While arsenic levels in rice are generally low and not immediately harmful, regular rinsing can help minimize long-term exposure. However, research shows that thorough washing and cooking in excess water may also strip essential nutrients like selenium and zinc. Zapién emphasizes that washing rice is ultimately a matter of preference—those who prefer fluffy rice should rinse more, while fans of sticky rice may rinse less.

Swollen ankles and legs could be an early warning sign of heart failure, according to health experts. The British Heart Foundation and NHS highlight this as one of the most common symptoms, caused by fluid buildup due to the heart’s reduced ability to pump blood effectively. This condition, known as oedema, may worsen throughout the day and can be accompanied by fatigue, breathlessness, and irregular heartbeat. While the swelling can result from other factors like diet, medication, or pregnancy, persistent or worsening symptoms should prompt immediate medical attention. Health officials urge the public to take such signs seriously for early diagnosis and treatment.

UK health officials have launched a major campaign urging young people aged 16 to 25 to get the HPV vaccine, after more than 418,000 children left school without receiving it over the past three years. The vaccine protects against cervical and other HPV-related cancers. While typically given in Year 8, those who missed it can still get vaccinated for free through their GP. The initiative is part of the government’s goal to eliminate cervical cancer by 2040. Health charities are supporting the effort by raising awareness and providing educational resources.

Three Surrey hospices — Phyllis Tuckwell in Farnham, Princess Alice in Esher, and Woking & Sam Beare in Woking — are set to receive a share of £2 million in UK government funding aimed at transforming end-of-life care. The investment, part of a national £75 million package, will support facility upgrades, patient comfort, and expanded services. Children’s hospice Shooting Star in Hampton will also benefit. Sector leaders have welcomed the funding but continue to call for long-term financial support to meet growing care demands.
