How can I get online pediatric medical help?

Answer by  Aferris (43)

There are alot of different websites but the one that I have found to be most helpful is WebMd. It has a search bar where you type in the symptoms and it will take you to all the information that you wil need.

No on-line website is a substitute for a personal physician. However, they can be a helpful supplement to a good parent-patient-doctor relationship. My favorite medical website in WebMD. The medical content is well-vetted, the tone is calm and factual, and the organization is easily to use. They have a special section for child's health and parenting issues.

Sometimes your own doctor will have an online help line; those personalized answers are excellent. Choose internet sites with caution; those associated with major hospitals or clinics are better than private sites. Herbal, natural, and alternative treatment web sites do not have the same scientific basis as medical treatments.

For small, less important issues a website like WEB MD can by very helpful. For more serious issues a hospital like Children's in Boston has a very imformative website that contains specific facts, phone numbers and links.

I suggest webmd for medical questions. That is where I go to get information when my children are sick. I also use it to get information on vaccines that they receive / are about to receive.

I would say medhelp. com. It is a good place to go since they have an ask the doctor forum. They have doctors that specialize in almost everything, including pediatrics. You can ask a doctor specific questions.

I like sites like webmd, but it's not specifically for pediatric medical help. They give you excellent medical advice for all ages. Still, no website substitutes going to a doctor.

http://pediatrics. about. com/od/askapediatrician/Ask_a_Pediatrician_a_Question_Online. htm is the best website to use. There is an option to ask a pediatrician through an online submission, so the answer is more beneficial.
