Whenever she gets sick she always looks up her symptoms in Google. She also does this with anyone she knows is sick. It is funny to me actually, heh. You may be able to find and fix minor health issues like a cut, bruise or a cold using Google search but it will never replace a real doctor for serious issues.

Googled and found that honey and sugar work to help heal cuts better and they have antibacterial properties. Went to the store, bought honey, bought white sugar, made a paste of both, got a small sugar rush, put it on my still bleeding wound, wrapped it and went to bed. It was smaller, and was not bleeding the next day.
