What to be wary of – websites set up by companies
Sponsored websites – these may not be bad, in fact they are often accurate, but they may be biased, with an emphasis on medication rather than other treatments.
Online diagnosis websites – tempting to find out what is wrong by ticking boxes and submitting a form – no doctors would diagnose using a form and sites that tell you what is wrong and how to cure it are invariably selling something.
