Nikolai Plavunov, the chief physician of the Puchkov ambulance and emergency medical aid station, told the main rules for providing first aid.
The physician urged not to self-medicate if there is a sudden pain in the chest or abdomen, sudden sweating, dizziness, speech deterioration, or facial asymmetry. However, everyone needs to know the principles of first aid, the doctor emphasizes.
– If you, being next to a relative, see that he became ill, you need to react immediately, – RIA Novosti quotes Plavunov. – So, a distorted corner of the mouth can talk about a serious illness, or if a person has blurry speech.
