If you feel ill, you can go to the chemist to buy cough mixture or headache pills. For more powerful drugs, you need to get a prescription from a doctor. Doctors work in surgeries and health centres. There is also a phone service, called NHS Direct. With NHS Direct you can talk to a trained nurse. Some people prefer to use alternative medicine like Chinese herbs, acupuncture or osteopathy. If you exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet, you shouldn't need to use the healthcare system.
