| Recommended Health Sites | |||
| Advice - general | I have used the Mayo
Clinic** website and find it easy to navigate and easy to
understand for the non-medical person. It also has medication
information on it. http://www.mayoclinic.com/ ** |
||
| ADHD/ADD | I have found two websites informative for parents of kids who have
ADHD/ADD. Both are loaded with information and are easy to use: Adhd.com** provides comprehensive attention deficit information for parents. ADDvance.com** is geared for women and girls with ADHD/ADD. |
||
| Asthma/Allergies | Here are a couple of websites that provide information on allergies
and asthma: |
||
| Chickenpox | This is a CDC site with information on Chickenpox: http://www.cdc.gov/nip/diseases/varicella/** |
||
| Headlice | Here is a website for information on head
lice** (we have not seen any this year), that gives treatment options
and answers frequently asked questions. http://www.headlice.org/** |
||
| Pink eye | This site gives information regarding pink
eye**. If you have a concern that your child has pink eye
you should err on the side of caution and keep your child home.
As you will learn it is highly contagious and can easily spread. http://kidshealth.org/parent/infections/eye/conjunctivitis.html** |
