Not every symptom looks the way you expect.

Often, when searching certain skin condition symptoms, the results only show lighter skin tones. While many common health symptoms can show up differently depending on your skin tone.
It’s important to know your skin! Trust what you’re noticing and see a provider if something feels off.

Please note: These images are only examples and appearance can vary!

Today is World Hepatitis Day.

❓ What is hepatitis? It's an inflammation of the liver caused by a virus.
❓ How do I know I have it? Ask your doctor for a blood test! Normal blood tests don't usually test for it; make sure to ask.
❓ How can I protect myself? Vaccines are the best way to protect yourself from hepatitis A and B
❓ How does it spread? Hep. A can spread through eating or drinking something with the virus in it, while Hep. B and C can spread by direct contact, including s*x. You can also spread them by sharing bodily fluids or needles with infected blood.
❗ Hep. B and C can put you at risk for liver cancer.

You never know what someone else is carrying just by looking at them.

Some may be dealing with little sleep and long shifts, while others may just be trying to stay present and in the moment. Grief, depression, or just a long day.

We never see what's behind someone's day. That's why small moments of kindness matter more than you may think. A quick check-in, some patience, or even just a listening ear.

Don't forget that kindness matters for you too.

If you are ever in need of extra support, 988 is a text or call away 24hours a day, 7 days a week. You're never alone! 🫶
