what is the best way to seek medical attention if you are afraid of doctors and hospitals?

Obviously – at some point you have to get over, or at least control your fears.

There are no good substitutes to professional medical care.

You might seek medical advice on reddit – r/askdocs – r/askdoctors – r/medical – etc. Those are some of the subreddits that offer advice to medical questions – but ultimately – you will need to see a real doctor if you want to maintain good health.
