now what is the root cause of our illness. There are various YouTube channels that provide medical advice just for free.

However

, it should be

also

kept in the mind that data provided over various websites is not authentic always, and it might prove disastrous

also

.

For instance

, one of my friends tried to cure his fever himself without consulting any professional doctor. He ended up in ICU when his symptoms got worse.

Moreover

, it is worth spending some money to cure the disease in the early stage

otherwise

, masses end up spending lakhs of rupees while being in the emergency wards. In a nutshell, I would say that we should always cross-check with a professional before trusting any advice given freely on google. If we are completely aware of the medical condition, and data available is relevant

then

we can apply that in our daily

life
