Expert support for various service-related conditions
Hearing Loss
Men and women who are serving or have served in the United Kingdom Armed Forces are at significant risk of developing noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) during their service. This condition is primarily caused by repeated exposure to loud noises encountered during training exercises and operational duties. Common sources of harmful noise include operating heavy machinery, participating in live and blank firing exercises, and working in close proximity to aircraft.
Post Traumatic Stress
Disorder (PTSD)
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), sometimes known as shell shock or combat stress, occurs after you experience severe trauma or a life-threatening event. It's normal for your mind and body to be in shock after such an event, but this normal response becomes PTSD when your nervous system gets “stuck.”
Compartment Syndrome
Compartment syndrome, both acute and chronic, can significantly impact military personnel, particularly those with physically demanding roles or those involved in combat-related activities. It's a condition where increased pressure within a muscle compartment restricts blood flow, leading to potential muscle and nerve damage.
