NHS Home Treatment Guide    http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/ Medical encyclopaedia http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/resourceindex.asp  Self help Guide http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/SelfHelp/index.asp  Diagnosis of common ailments The National Health Service in the UK have an excellent on-line diagnosis guide for common conditions, many of which can be treated at home (or at sea). The guide is designed to lead you quickly to the right course of action, whether that be taking an aspirin or calling emergency services immediately. To use the guide, you can either select a part of the body where the problem lies, or browse a list of conditions in the index. Both routes lead to a series of questions designed to narrow down the possible cause of the complaint. There is a comprehensive health encyclopaedia containing lists of illnesses alphabetically or listing topics organised by subject areas. There is also advice for healthy living, diet, exercise etc., and health features, an on-line magazine covering topical health issues, with a special feature every month.
