Christmas is the time for eating, drinking, family, friends, turkey, Christmas trees and carols. For most of us. For some of us, it can herald drunken injuries, increased stress and cooking catastrophes, but this year, be prepared for anything that Christmas might throw at you.
Christmas Dinner Disasters
You’ve cooked a perfect turkey for 12 people and it’s sizzling away in the oven, but it’s a big bird and it’s pretty heavy and getting it out with a tea towel is not easy. It’s inevitable that you’re going to burn yourself on the oven, the roasting tray or on the sizzling juices, so use Nelsons Burns Cream to relieve pain, prevent blistering and heal quickly.
Ok, you’ve not burnt yourself, phew. But then, whilst carving the turkey, you manage to slice your finger on the sharp knife. Use Nelsons Hypercal Cream quickly to help health and relieve the pain. Nelsons Burns Cream and Nelsons Hypercal Cream costs £4.15 from Boots, Holland & Barrett, selected Lloyds and all good independent health food stores and pharmacies
Decoration Dramas
Reaching the top of the Christmas tree to put on the star or climbing the ladder to attach fairy lights to the outside of the house can easily turn into a decorating disaster, as you tumble unfortunately onto the floor. But after picking your self up, only your ego needs to be bruised if you reach for Arnicare Cream. Arnica is proven to help bumps and bruises heal more quickly. Nelsons Arnicare Cream costs £4.15 from Boots, Holland & Barrett, independent pharmacies and health food stores

How many times have you woken up after a fantastic night out with friends or colleagues and your brain is a little hazy about the details?
