Description

An invaluable health and symptoms reference guide for anyone looking to identify a medical problem quickly. This simple, visual symptom checker helps you check out any health problem and directs you to what it might be and what you should do. Whether it's a symptom you have been ignoring for a while or something like a sudden pain after a fall, Medical Symptoms: A Visual Guide tells you what it could be and what action to take.  A series of head-to-toe visual diagnostic guides help you to identify suspected conditions or injuries and once you've narrowed it down, a cross-reference takes you to easy-to-follow descriptions of the condition at the back of the book. Potentially life-threatening situations and ailments that need urgent medical advice are clearly flagged. Medical Symptoms: A Visual Guide is the perfect resource for identifying what might be wrong and what you should do next.
