A suggestion that new Mods not over-do policy against medical advice.
Much 'advice' here, and elsewhere, is useful, non-intrusive, and suggests See a Doctor, as here:

1. If medical advice were a core purpose of this site, I might be sympathetic.
But it's not.

It is not worth the risk to let this stuff stay open. If, God forbid, someone takes the bad advice they get on this site and suffers real harm because of it, that would be a very bad thing.
