Always use NHS 111 (online, by phone or via the NHS App) if you need urgent care. They will ensure you receive the right care for your condition, in the right place and as quickly as possible. They will even arrange and appointment or arrival time slot. Help to keep Accident and Emergency free for life-threatening conditions by following this advice.
