Brits have a lot to whinge about on health

THE findings of a new medical study in Britain could go some way toward explaining the colloquial whingeing Pom.

A survey conducted by Spire Bristol Hospital found the average British person spends just a sixth of the year feeling 100 per cent healthy.

Residents of the UK complained of ailments including colds and ear infections, cricked necks, bitten tongues and backaches which plagued some 300 days of their year.

The findings come from a poll of 2000 people, which also showed a quarter of respondents had a condition that is ongoing.

"While people often adopt a 'grin and bear it' approach, it's important to recognise what's easily treatable and can relieve us from a lot of unnecessary suffering day to day," hospital director Rob Anderson told British newspaper The Daily Telegraph.

Survey results also show that people feel run-down for at least two days each week, with 11.35am on Monday being the most common time for people to feel ill.

Saturday lunchtime sees Britons feeling their most healthy.

Headaches are high on the list of complaints, closely followed by back pain, and discomfort from an old sports injury.

The survey also found that in an average year, residents of the UK will experience two ear infections, five bouts of heartburn, an eye infection, three bitten tongues and five cricked necks.
