Book Description
This health guide could potentially save your life.
This book aims to help the reader distinguish between
minor issues and major health problems, which through
simple lack of knowledge could cost you your life. It
addresses the major gestures that arise when faced to a
health problem: when should we go to the ER? What are
the telltale symptoms?
The chapters are organized according to areas of the
body: my chest hurts, my stomach hurts, my head
hurts… in each case, a list of questions to ask oneself to
identify the level of emergency and type of pathology
involved.
At the end of this guide, the reader will find practical
information: what to put in your first-aid kit, what are the
best practices when calling emergency services, what to
do in the meantime and the best ways to get yourself
prepared for their arrival, what are the useful emergency
numbers…
