We're Not Your Doctor. We're Not Even A Doctor.
ItHurts.com is here to inform, not diagnose. Think of us as a really well-read friend — not a clinic, not a pharmacy, not a substitute for the person with the medical degree and the stethoscope. Nothing here is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Full stop.
Our contributors are a mixed bag (in the best way) — doctors, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, dietitians, researchers, health writers, vloggers, and everyday people who've simply been there. That range is what makes this place useful.
But it also means: a byline is not a prescription pad. Every contributor speaks for themselves — their views, their claims, their content. If a nurse writes about her own recovery, that's her story, not a treatment plan for you. We don't vet, endorse, or take responsibility for what any individual contributor says.
"Medically reviewed" means exactly that — and only when we say so on the page. If it doesn't say it, assume it's one person's take, not a clinical consensus.
Bottom line: read, learn, get curious — then go talk to an actual licensed professional before you change anything about your actual health.
Chest pain, can't-catch-your-breath, this-feels-really-wrong kind of symptoms? Skip the scrolling. Call emergency services.
