  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. Have you ever walked into a pharmacy and wondered whether those nasal sprays suggesting they can stop the common cold actually do anything?

    Ahead of the inevitable coughs and colds of the autumn, the Lancet Respiratory provides some answers and they won’t be the ones you think... Still, right now it's the summer and time to get outside and active - especially if you have recurrent back pain. We look at a paper in the Lancet exploring whether just simply walking can be the problem. Finally, from the BJGP we examine a paper looking at what being a "full-time GP" means and how, sometimes, definitions can be REALLY important.
