mayoclinic
Alright so I know I'm not planning on becoming a doctor or anything, but mayoclinic.com is definitely a website I can see myself using in my future teaching/coaching career. Mayoclinic has virtually every sort of illness/injury/disease out there. It would be so useful to look up shin splints for example to help my athletes treat the problem. Mayoclinic has a list of symptoms and home remedies and medicines that can be used to treat the problem. I think it is a super cool website to go to and learn about fixing people who are injured or sick. Yesterday I was told that my uncle has sciatica. So I went on to Mayoclinic and searched it. It told me why it was caused, about how long it takes to go away, what to do to treat it, and how to prevent it. It also said when a person should seek professional medical help. I thought that was neat. It also said that in order to prevent sciatica, one needs to exercise and not be sedentary. I really liked that. Pretty much a lot of health-related issues can be solved purely by exercising. Even when I start to get sick, I make sure to go running for at least 20 min per day and my sickness never gets worse :) Anyways, mayoclinic.com is a useful online tool for me now and will be in the future as a teacher.
