      Thank you - nurse working in minor illness - different doctors can use different terms for the same thing - was getting confusing! Great to have some clarity! Very helpful.

      What I love the most in your explanation is the attention to detail. You know what mistakes we commonly do as undergraduates and have focused on that... not many people write with this clarity. Please do write on more such topics. Thanks!
