WebMD

WebMD is such a clever website! So let's say you're not feeling well and want to figure out whats wrong with you.

By clicking on the handy dandy Symptom Checker, you can easily determine your condition in 3 steps! First you select your gender and your age range. 1) Click on the part of the body where you are experiencing symptoms. 2) After zooming in, select a specific part of the body. Then select from symptoms available. 3) Add more symptoms (from the same or different part of the body) or select a possible condition and get more information.

Its a practical, helpful, and free website to help you determine why you are feeling sick, and provide suggestions to help you feel better. The website is not aimed at replacing a doctor. With certain symptoms that may be more serious, the site gives a warning and says something along the lines of "please seek prompt medical attention". Rather the website, allows one to help themselves and avoid an unnecessary trip to the doctor.
