Common conditions such as back ache, headaches, or a cough are referred to as self limiting conditions, which with effective self management will improve quicker and may mean that you don’t need to come to the surgery for an appointment. Self care for common conditions can also help free up some of your GP’s time, making it easier to get an appointment when you have a more serious condition.
