Summarize the following:
Remove yourself from the flow of traffic in order to reduce the risk of another accident. Make sure you pull over to a safe place where you and the other driver can get out of your cars.  For added safety, turn on your hazard lights once you’ve pulled over. Pay attention to where the other car is pulling over. If the other car does not pull over, try to view and remember their license plate once you are stopped on the side of the road. Write the license plate number down as soon as you can. If you or any of your passengers have any serious injuries, call 911 immediately to have paramedics sent to the scene. Attend to any minor injuries as best you can. It’s very important to let paramedics know exactly what sort of injuries they will be dealing with when they arrive at the scene. The police will need to file a report of the accident. If there is any worry that harm may have been caused, the police will serve as a neutral third-party and document the scene of the accident.  If the other driver drove off, you can tell the police their license number once they arrive. In some cases, the fender bender seems so minor that both parties avoid calling the police and simply exchange car insurance information. However, it’s very important to have a police report of the accident filed for insurance purposes. After you’ve both pulled over, walk over to the other car and ask if the driver and their passengers are ok. Without getting angry or upset, assure them that police are on their way and that situation will be taken care of.  Take a few deep breaths and try to avoid anger in this interaction. Staying calm will reduce the likelihood of other altercations. If the other driver is angry or belligerent, retreat back to your own car and wait for the police to arrive. Do not engage them in an uncivil way.

summary: Pull your car over to the side of the road if it’s safely drivable. Check yourself and others for injuries and call emergency services. Call the police to the scene in order to assess the situation. Communicate with the other driver to make sure they’re safe and calm.


Summarize the following:
The treatment of Lyme disease requires killing the causative bacteria responsible for the infection. The treatment also has to control all the symptoms that appeared and try to prevent any complications or spread of the infection in order to protect the vital organs. Treatment starts first with administering the proper antibiotics. These are only obtainable by a physician and the proper course of the medication will be laid out by the doctor. She will likely prescribe your child additional medications to control any symptoms. If you recognize the symptoms of Lyme disease, you must take your child to the doctor immediately. Your pediatrician will prescribe antibiotics to fight and kill the bacteria that causes Lyme disease. The doctor will determine the best antibiotic type depending on the patient’s age and the state of the Lyme disease.  Generally for children, oral antibiotics will be enough to stop the infection and suppress the characteristic rash. Doctors usually prescribe antibiotics for a week or two as an initial treatment period, which has been found to be enough for the majority of cases to cure the rashes. It is common for doctors to suggest your child continue using antibiotics for another two weeks to achieve complete destruction of Lyme disease. Antibiotics chosen are usually broad spectrum like Augmentin, which is Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid, that is available in many dosage forms to be suitable for different ages. You can also get oral suspensions that are suitable for younger children starting from the age four. If you child is showing signs of late stage Lyme disease, antibiotics through injection is preferred to give a faster response. This direct injection results in faster absorption, which helps the medicine start working and cure it faster. It also helps to prevent or to cure other serious complications such as arthritis.  Available injections include brands such as Rocephin (Ceftriaxone) that can be given to children with the concentration of 0.5 mg. These can be injected directly into your child's muscle or vein as a single daily dose.  The doctor will observe your child for a period to see if the antibiotics are curing the disease or if he has not responded to the medication. If this happens, the antibiotic type can be changed by the doctor. Non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are usually prescribed by doctors for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. These medications also help suppress pain or fever as well as reduce any inflammation and rash that has developed. The medicine relieves the swelling and the warmth sensation at the affected skin spots.  These are commonly prescribed by your doctor when arthritis pain is one of the complications of the child’s Lyme disease. Read the instruction on all over-the-counter medications and note any special instructions for child doses. If you are unsure, ask your doctor. You can buy NSAIDs such as ibuprofen (Children’s Advil, Children’s Motrin), Catafast sachets, or Cataflam suppositories (Diclophenac Potassium), which are available as syrups, suppositories, or sachets. Your doctor will give the right prescribed medication according to the child’s age. Do not give children under 18 aspirin, as it has been linked to the development of Reye’s syndrome, a rare but dangerous condition in which the liver and the brain swell. Although they will not cure Lyme disease, topical anti-itch applications such as creams or gels can be applied directly at the rash spots to prevent your child from scratching them. These ointments relieve the itching or burning sensation in the affected areas. The soothing effect can calm the whole skin area, helping to suppress the painful itchy sensation.  Consult your doctor before applying any creams to your child’s skin. You will still need to use antibiotics to cure the Lyme disease. Anti-itch ointments only relieve symptoms.
summary: Know the basics of a treatment plan. Bring your child to a doctor. Get an antibiotic injection. Give your child NSAIDs. Apply a topical anti-itch solution to fight itching.
