4 Signs of Underlying Health Issues That You Mustn’t Ignore
Long before we get professionally diagnosed with an illness, our body actually gives us warning signs! As they may be rather subtle, it can be quite natural for us to overlook them and move on with our daily routine.
However, some minor symptoms can be indicators of severe medical conditions. Hence, it’s imperative for you to know what exactly to look out for so you can notice the early signs before the sickness further develops. In some cases, such as a stroke, it can be a matter of life and death.
Here are some signs of underlying health issues that you definitely shouldn’t ignore.
1. Heartburn
Anytime you experience a burning sensation in your chest after a meal or at night, your mother would probably be the first to tell you that your body is feeling “heaty”. This is also known as heartburn. If you’re lying down on the bed, then the pain can be so intense that you’d have to sit up in an attempt for it to subside.
On an occasional basis, there’s no need to get worried over heartburn. The pain can typically be relieved with over-the-counter medications and changes in your lifestyle. But when it occurs for up to twice a week, despite taking medication, then it can be a sign for you to seek medical care.
2. Numbness
Numbness, mainly if it only occurs exclusively on one side of the body, can be a severe indicator of stroke. Alternatively, it can also be associated with other diseases like diabetes. No matter what, you should always get it investigated every time you experience a numbing sensation.
3. Bad breath
Many factors lead to bad breath. It could be the food you eat, poor oral health habits or smoking cigarettes. But did you know that it can also be a sign of other health issues?
When your bad breath is persistent, or if there’s always a bad taste in your mouth, then it could be a red flag signalling gum disease, which is caused by the buildup of plaque on the teeth. If gum disease is left untreated, it could lead to damage in both the gums and jawbone. Bad breath can also be due to cavities, bronchitis and many other diseases and illnesses.
4. Chapped lips
In our sunny Singapore, dry lips may seem like a norm, but it’s nothing that can’t be solved with lip balm. But when your lips continue to appear all dried up and cracked despite taking preventive measures, then you can consider a visit to the dermatologist.
Sometimes, it can be because of dehydration or malnutrition, which requires serious attention from a doctor. Notably, it signals the lack of B vitamins in your system, which puts you at risk of anaemia.
Conclusion
If you urgently require medic services, you can quickly request for a private ambulance in Singapore through MyCLNQ, a mobile application with an array of digital telehealth services for your healthcare needs!
Even though we’ve transitioned to Phase 2 of post-Circuit Breaker, some people are still wary of leaving their house to stay safe. Instead of scheduling an in-person appointment, you now have the option of seeing a doctor online, directly through your mobile phone! While it is important to keep vigilant on any COVID-19 symptoms, it is also crucial to pay attention to your overall health and check for other worrying signs that may indicate a health concern.

Don’t eat less, eat smart!

If you want to eat more, it is simple! be mindful of your choices. People tend to eat more because their choices of food are NOT nutritious.
Take a look at that example; for just a cheeseburger and coke the calories is still higher than consuming 5 nutritious food. This is why when people who love eating fast food are hungry all the time. The food is not nutritious but the calories content is very high. This is also the reason for weight gain.
HOW DO YOU CHOOSE WHAT TO EAT?
Download a helpful app that allows you to track your nutrients intake including calories goals. For example, MyFitnessPal is great for you to track your meals.
Always be mindful of carbs.
-Switch your white rice to cauliflower rice
-Switch your potatoes to pumpkin
– Instead of deep-frying your fries, air-fry it and don’t add salt
We should all strive to eat better but do not starve yourself. You can still enjoy food without getting fat or unhealthy. Start being mindful to the things you put inside your body. These are precautions you can take to not fall sick and live a long and healthy life.
Simple aerobic exercises you can do during covid19
Stay home but stay healthy. We can still go out to do simple aerobic exercises to stay healthy and keep our immune system strong!
Singapore Health Promotion Board and Ministry of Health have launch plenty of guidelines to keep Singaporeans active and healthy. You may visit the following websites for more details:

So what is AEROBIC EXERCISE?
It is any type of cardiovascular conditioning aka CARDIO.Another way to describe aerobic exercise or “cardio” is that it’s the type of workout that increases both your heart rate and breathing
Simple activities that you can still do right now is, Skipping, Running/Jogging, Brisk Walking and Cycling.

Even after the Circuit Breaker ends and Singapore enters Phase 1, most people are still working from home.
What are the challenges of remote working especially during the pandemic? Is remote working here to stay even after the crisis?
Tech companies like Facebook, Twitter. are announcing that the transition to remote work is going to be permanent.Mark Zuckerberg announced that up to half of Facebook’s employees could be working remotely in five to 10 years
In Singapore, employees are only allowed to go into the office only when it is necessary or if they need to access something sensitive like legal work. If your employer in Singapore operates a non-essential service but insists that you continue working; you may report this to Covid_GoBusiness@mti.gov.sg.
In this new work-from-home reality that we’re living in, it’s particularly challenging for people to draw a line between work life and personal life. It is very important for employers to
- Respect working hours and off-working hours
- Ease on micromanaging and trust employees
- Have clear communication tools. E.G Slack for Updates, Emails for Reports etc

Some “traditional” companies that don’t believe in flexible work or remote work have been forced into it by the pandemic. These managers are definitely forced to trust employees and accept that digital transformation is necessary to keep the business alive
Here are some communication tools you can use to for remote working
Technology for covid19 recovery model in Singapore
As of 18th May 2020, 88% of the covid19 cases are Work Permit holders living in Dormitories. This also means that all of them will be returning to the workforce soon when they have recovered. So what happens next? Singapore is using a device that is given to every worker to monitor their oxygen level and can help detect early signs of a deterioration in health

It is important for Singapore to provide medical support in the recovery phase of covid19. This helps to ensure that workers living in the dorms are supervised and are well enough to eventually return to work
MyCLNQ wants to be part of this. Our app may not be popular among the work permit holders in Singapore but we are definitely looking to change this by
- Giving them e-vouchers to use in case of the need for non-emergency medical transport
- Contact relevant companies that have employees that are made up of work permit holders to educate them on how to use our app
The team at MyCLNQ feels that EVERYONE should have the knowledge and access to simpler healthcare especially during this time when everyone is using a smartphone. If they can use Facebook, they will definitely be able to navigate our user-friendly app.
We hope to kickstart this project by early June to ensure that we are doing our part as a company to help Singapore in this difficult time
Seeing a Doctor during Covid19 quarantine period: MyCLNQ to support the demand
We are seeing impressive growth of online doctor consultation worldwide because of the pandemic. This action is necessary to supply the demand of people who are unwell but not because of covid19

There are still children who need to see the paediatrician or elderly who are unwell due to hypertension or other diseases that are no longer accepted as walk-ins at the hospital.
Though the medical infrastructure in Singapore is good, most companies or people who are serving their Stay Home Notice at the designated hotels are advised to seek online medical consultations. There are a number of digital health startups that provide video consultations where patients can now keep track of heir health without compromising the social distancing and self-isolation norms.
MyCLNQ is continuously improving our app to make healthcare experience seamless and simple for everyone. We are currently working on adding this new feature to our app at soonest possible considering the high demand.
Our video doctor consultation will also be available in all 4 languages (Malay, Mandarin, Tamil, English) in support of the elderly who may not speak English as their first language
More features aside from the video consultation are coming your way this year so please stay updated by following our telegram channel or our FB/IG
