Tummy and bowel in Cardiff
Tummy and bowel advice for stomach pain, constipation, diarrhoea, indigestion, acid reflux, piles (haemorrhoids) and more.
At Crwys Pharmacy (128 Crwys Road, Cathays, Cardiff), you will have a confidential chat with the pharmacist. You will be asked about your tummy or stomach symptoms, your diet and drinks, and how long it has been going on. We will also ask what you have tried so far and any health conditions you have. We do not do an examination of your bottom in the pharmacy. If needed, the pharmacist can advise you to contact a GP or another service. You must complete a short pre-consultation form before your appointment.
What this service involves
- Sensitive, respectful support - We can talk about constipation, diarrhoea, indigestion, acid reflux, and piles (haemorrhoids) in a calm and respectful way.
- Safety checks - The pharmacist will check what is safe for you, based on your age, allergies, and any regular medicines you take.
