It may also have little
white spots. The doctor may take a swab, using a cotton ball on a stick. The
doctor will have to tickle the back of your throat to get a good swab. Then the
swab is sent away for some tests to be done on it to find out if it is what is
called a strep throat. This is a bad sore throat and you will have to
have some medicine.
SPRAINS -
Joints are all the
places in our
bodies where two bones are joined together: fingers, wrists, hips, elbows,
ankles. Joints are surrounded and protected by stretchy tissues called
ligaments. When the ligaments get torn and the joint gets twisted out of place,
we call it a sprain. It will feel sore and tender and will look bruised and
swollen. You may have to wear a sling.
When you go to bed, your bedroom can sometimes
be a lonely place when the only person in it is you.
You shouldn't be
scared to
go to bed because your mom or dad are near by and will be there if you need
them. Our brains sometimes plays tricks on us by making you think that you hear

room - if you happen to wake up.
