Apparently, the idea has become popular of late and there is much discussion about whether parents should try it when their kids get sick and whether the benefits of the procedure are worth the wrestling match with a squirming, unco-operative child.</p> Fri, 07 Oct 2022 10:00:00 +0000 Christopher Labos MD, MSc 9254 at /oss
