Throughout generations quack doctors(Albularyo) where known as a substitute healers for those who cant afford going to the doctor. Knowing that going to see a doctor is the best way for treatments. Many still goes to see abularyo's as it cost less regardless of the health consequence that it may bring to them.
But do abularyo's really heal a person in need or it will only make them feel them better for a short time being not knowing if you're really getting better or the illnes itself is getting worse.
Let us talk about both cases and see if going to see a quack doctor (Albularyo) is better than seeing a professional health care companion (Doctors).
Main reason why I prefer to go see a doctor is that doctors have a backround in terms of medicine and they have the technology to determine your illnes. They strongly and rely on science to better treat a patient's body. And they don't make false accusations against a patient.
Seeing a doctor sure is expensive, but regardless of the cost. People can have a higher chance of getting better. Quack doctors usually use herbal medicines to treat it's patient's. Not knowing if the patient is hypoallergenic towards herbal plants. And nowadays a lot of fake medicine is produced and sold. Such medicine is not suitable for our health and causes bad effects in our health.
On the other hand. Seeing an Albularyo May have a good impact on people. Not only that Albularyo's uses old and traditional methods being pass down through generations. They also use herbal medicines. Herbal medicines that are a better substitute to modern medicine. For there are people who would prefer natural medicine than modern medicine.
There are a lot of things that people still don't understand on how these Albularyo's cure someone's illness. But one thing is for certain that its their big secret on how they know and treat someone's illness.
I’m not saying that seeing an albularyo is such a bad thing. It’s still up to us on whether we believe in such things. But remember that taking care of yourself is still the best option if you want to avoid having illness. And that our life is priceless, so learn to treasure it.
