Some time ago, I fell sick.
I am not a fan of hospitals and could even puke at the sight of one so I resorted to taking some simple pain relievers for the ache instead.
After a few days, I didn't get any better, so I said. "This should be malaria."
And went ahead to buy some malaria drugs to use.
After using it, I felt better for a day or two but became sick again.
At this point, I knew I had no other choice than to seek medical attention.
I immediately went for a check up and was told I had typhoid. 😱
To think I had been treating malaria all along.
I commenced typhoid treatment immediately and got better in no distant time.
I didn't fall sick again.
Many times, we are fond of taking self helps instead of seeking medical attention.
We'd rather prescribe drugs for ourselves than to be examined by a specialist.
This is so wrong.
According to medical terms coined by me, self help is no help at all as you may even end up worsening the situation
Seek medical attention rather than prescribe drugs for yourself.
Don't assume. Be sure.
