Medicine is the art and science of healing. It encompasses a range of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.

Contemporary medicine applies health science, biomedical research, and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically through medication, surgery, or some other form of therapy. The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.

Though medical technology and clinical expertise are pivotal to contemporary medicine, successful face-to-face relief of actual suffering continues to require the application of ordinary human feeling and compassion, known in English as bedside manner.

What kind of medicine can I get for a kidney problem without a prescription?
Q. My dad is in pain and we don't have insurance, please what kind of medicine is out there where it can relieve the pain for now.
Asked by LBC-Lakers - Wed Nov 7 10:10:56 2007 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Really the only thing that might help with pain is an over-the-counter analgesic. Unfortunately, these help with only mild pain. Without know exactly what your father's kidney problem is, I don't feel safe advising anything more than this. I suggest you stay away from herbal "remedies" as these may worsen the problem. I think the suggestion to try a free clinic is a good one. I don't agree with the idea to use an ER. These are NOT free and your father WILL be billed if he is unable to pay at the time service is rendered. Please don't consider abusing our EMS system. This is why ERs close.

What is the best medicine I can get over the counter for coughing and a stuffy nose?
Q. My boyfriends been super sick for the past few days. He's had terrible coughing fits, he'll start coughing suddenly and sometimes can't stop until he gags and he can't breath through his nose at all no matter how much he blows it. I've given him MucinexDM for the coughing and a nasal decongestant but they has no effect at all. What is the best medicine can I get over the counter for his symptoms?

A. try green tea with lemon and honey for the itchy throat. Also Tylenol Severe Sore Throat (it's a liquid) works wonders on cough. And it will put him to sleep so he can rest. Ultimately, rest and lots of water works best for the cough. Also, you can put Vicks Vapor rub under his nose so he can breathe easier.

What type of cough medicine do they give dogs?
Q. We' ve recently torn down our old fence and replaced it with a new redwood fence. Several days ago, our male dog began "coughing", which sounded like he was trying to cough up a furball. Doing research tonight on the internet, it appears that this could be kennel cough caused by excess dust. My husband and I read that along with antibiotics, they often give cough medicine. Does anyone know the type? Is it in liquid or pill form?
