As someone who relies heavily on Google for all of my medical questions I absolutely love this idea!

Voted no on this one,

The best medical advice is that every illness should be examined and diagnosed by a medical professional in a clinlic/hospital setting in-person to avoid any misdiagnoses/clear any suspicions.

I second this, voted No.
Thanks for the suggestion though!

If you have a medical issue, go to the doctor.
The internet is not a place to get medical advice.

Voted no.

I cannot agree with this enough.
This is not the place for medical advice.

Voted no. Pretty sure that would come with some liability to either posters or the site
This may be a good subforum for asking about workout related vitamins: https://forums.d2jsp.org/forum.php?f=60

Telemedicine is also a good alternative for general questions

If you have a medical issue go see your doctor. In my opinion this isn’t needed. Voted no.

well having a religion or a faith in something isn't hurtful and can be discussed on internet. But i feel with others here, a medical subforum isn't needed and nor a right place to seek out help if you have real medical issue.
I bet people would troll some other users and it could/would do more harm then useful, even dangerous.
Voted no

Physician here and I completely agree with everyone above. The people that will be giving you advice through jsp or social media are likely going to be the same people you don't want giving you advice. There is no way to know if they're actually qualified in any way nor if the person responding is trolling you. Anyone that is qualified to give medical advice should really only be giving you the advice to go see a doctor.

Knowing 90% of posts are either troll or spam , i consider this is not a good idea.

And nobody wants people to make fun of their illness or get bad/wrong advices from incompetent or poorly informed people.

Thanks for the suggestion, voted no.

Sometimes I want to get some medical advice without having to bother my doctor. I usually post my questions on facebook, but in certain occasions, I don't want my mom seeing my potential medical issue because she may get worried and keep calling me to tell me to go to the doctor.

For example, recently I have been taking new vitamins (daily multivitamin, cissus, omega 3 fish oil, and collagen). I feel that it has been helping my joints recover from workouts, but I have been having enormous poops (like over 1 foot long) basically daily. I am not sure if this is healthy or not. I would love to have a place where I can ask these types of questions to the community and get some advice.

Let me know what you think and thanks for your votes.

Also if you have any advice on my current bowel movement issues, please pm me.

Can you post a picture of your tissue? I mean issue
