from Inside Health · host BBC Radio 4

Time for a sprinkling of happiness with a new exhibition at the Wellcome Collection.Last time we heard how children's A&E is under huge pressure as infections, that disappeared during Covid, make a comeback. But doctors also warn that many of those children shouldn’t actually be there. Damian Roland a paediatrician in emergency medicine at University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust busts the myths about fever and gives tips on when to take your child to A&E. And the wonders of ear wax, until it builds up, that is, as it does for me. But it's not just ear wax that nurse Andrew Hill has found in people's ears - cocaine and spiders too. You get it all here on Inside Health.PRESENTER: James Gallagher PRODUCERS: Beth Eastwood & Geraldine Fitzgerald
