Davis SAINTSBURY CORRESPONDENT SAINTSBURY - The youth of St. Patrick’s Church received a photo of the boy from Dar, Tanzania who received the bedkit from their donation to ‘Sleeping Children Around the World’.

If you require protection against Hepatitis A and B for travelling, you need three doses at intervals of 0, 1 and 6 months. The vaccine, TwinRix, has now been approved for a new rapid dosing schedule of 0, 7 and 21 days. This schedule is recommended for adults only when travel is anticipated within one month. It is estimated that premature ejaculation is a problem for 22- 38% of males. Treatment includes “pause and squeeze” where the penis is squeezed at the base or top for about 4 seconds, anesthetic creams and sometimes, certain drugs, like the newer antidepressants, can help the problem. Your doctor can help advise you. We hear so much about the benefits of ASA for heart disease and stroke prevention. However, this drug should not be given to anyone under the age of 18 with a viral illness (flu, chicken pox) because of its association with Reye’s syndrome. Reye’s can affect the brain, liver and blood glucose levels and can occur in otherwise healthy children. Best rule: Avoid ASA in children altogether. Most aphthous ulcers (canker sores) will disappear in about 2 weeks. There are various non-prescription treatments available for this annoying problem including local anesthetics, protectants and rinsing mouth with saline solution. If the cankers keep recurring, there are some prescription products that can be used.
