Script

Doctor:           Welcome to “Ask the Doctor.” I’m Dr⁵. Helen Monroe here today to help you with your health problems. Let’s go to the first caller⁷. Hello, you’re on the air.

First Caller:    Hello. My problem is sunburn. I fell asleep in the sun. Now I have a bad sunburn. Really bad. My skin is red and hot. I can’t eat. I can’t sleep. I feel terrible. What should I do?

Doctor:           For a bad sunburn, drink a lot of water. Stay in a cool, quiet room. Rest. And of course, don’t go outside in the sun. eat cool foods like ice cream and drink cold juice. Now on to our next caller:

Second Caller: My problem is I can’t sleep at night. Every night I can’t fall asleep. So… I’m always tired.

Doctor:           If you can’t sleep, don’t take sleep medicine. It doesn’t really help you. Instead, try to get some exercise every day. Swim, play tennis, dance… perhaps take a walk. Secondly⁸, don’t drink a lot of alcohol or coffee. Especially coffee. It’s loaded with caffeine that will keep you up. Third, try reading something very boring. A boring book can help you go right to sleep! Now to our next caller…
