All Health related questions should be submitted to /r/AskDocs from now on.

Your health related questions need to be directed to r/AskDocs from now on. They are a newer subreddit that is structured around answering health related medicinal questions.

They are going to be answering your questions about health and medicine from a science-based medicine point of view. And in a similar fashion as you have come to love from similar subreddits like r/AskScience and r/AskHistorians.

If you have and interest in helping them, and have the qualifications to help moderator r/AskDocs, then send them an mod-mail. They will want to know what your qualifications are. Are you doctor or nurse? Are you a student in med-school or a related field (biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, etc.)? They will want to know specifics.

Always remember, the Medical disclaimer of Reddit. Stuff you read on Reddit should not be considered a substitute for seeing a doctor in real life. While, I am sure, everyone involved in r/AskDocs will want to give you the best info they know, they really aren't a full on substitute for seeing a doctor.

All that said, we have turned off image-based and self-post submissions here in r/Health now. All submissions should be directed to r/AskDocs from now on.

Thank you.
