It's time to highlight some of the best new WisdomCards we've added to our collection this week. Our WisdomCards are hand-crafted, doctor-approved research summaries to help you find the health information you're after. This week our hardworking Guides were super busy:
- May is Arthritis Awareness Month, and children get arthritis too. If your child has arthritis, you will want to see Catherine's WisdomCard on juvenile rheumatoid arthritis treatments, as well as Jacky's WisdomCard on JRA and physical therapy.
- Speaking of kids, they can also suffer from insomnia -- so check out Jacky's WisdomCards on insomnia in children and insomnia prevention.
- ADHD is generally considered a children-only condition, but Jacky has created a WisdomCard on how to diagnose ADHD in adults, while Kenyotta sheds light on ADHD myths.
- Judy has put together another whole deck of WisdomCards on migraines this week, so be sure to take a look: migraine prevention, migraines and caffeine, vestibular migraines, migraines and blurred vision, and migraine diary.
- Would you recognize the physical symptoms of high blood pressure? Jacky put together a WisdomCard to answer that question, plus more: high blood pressure and pets (hint: pets are good!) and tips to help you remember to take your hypertension medications. Kenyotta also has information on high blood pressure treatment, and Misty has a WisdomCard on the effects of high blood pressure.
- Trouble breathing? Misty can help you understand the differences between COPD vs. asthma. While Catherine put together WisdomCards on the causes of chronic bronchitis, the symptoms of bronchiectasis, and the prognosis of COPD.
- Chronic pain sufferers looking for alternative treatments need to check out Misty's WisdomCards on using biofeedback for chronic pain, as well as massage and acupuncture for fibromyalgia.
