Features: With the improvement of people's material and cultural lives, the pursuit of health has become increasingly high. Family medicine and self-care have gained growing attention. To maintain a healthy body, it is essential to focus on the following two points:
1. Pay attention to regulating daily diet and routines;
2. If sick, seek early detection, early treatment, and symptomatic medication to ensure recovery.
Many diseases in daily life can be treated with self-medication if one has basic medical knowledge. This saves time and reduces expenses for hospital visits. Therefore, based on public demand, we have organized and compiled the "Comprehensive Guide to Family Medical Care" for readers to learn and use. The purpose is to improve the prevention and treatment of common diseases among readers, achieving the goal of treating diseases first and preventing them second.
This book introduces common diseases in internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, and dermatology. For each disease, it briefly discusses the etiology and pathogenesis, as well as (TCM) diagnostic and symptomatic treatments. Additionally, it provides self-diagnosis, precautions, herbal tea self-treatment formulas, dietary remedies, and over-the-counter medication self-treatment methods.
Furthermore, it covers self-diagnosis for common symptoms, first aid and management for emergencies, other therapies, family medication and health care, and tips for treating common diseases. This book is a medical popularization read that combines scientific rigor, targeted focus, practicality, and accessibility. It can be used for immediate reference and also holds collectible value.
