ILPh- TEEN-AGE HEALTH NO. 2 Oddly, diabetes, glandular disorders, blood ailments and congenital defects are low on *the list. Acne is possibly a hun­ dred times more common than diabetes, but almost every teen with diabetes sees the physi­ cian regularly whereas only a fraction with acne do so. The family doctor treats 42 per cent *of all teen-age ills; pediatricians, 8 per cent; skin specialists, 12 per cent; and surgeons, 20 per cent. The rea­ son the surgeon sees one-fifth of the teen-agers stems from the frequency of accidents a- mong this group. The same can be said of undertakers because motor vehicle fatalities go up to 42 per 100,000 population among the 15 to 24 age brack­ et included in this group. One-tenth of these between 5 and 19 years of age have emotional problems. Malnour- ishment and maternal ne­ glect are said to play a ma­ jor role. Here at BOLGER'S DRUG STORE...1259 N.
