Medicine is the art and science of healing. It encompasses a range of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.

Contemporary medicine applies health science, biomedical research, and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically through medication, surgery, or some other form of therapy. The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.

Though medical technology and clinical expertise are pivotal to contemporary medicine, successful face-to-face relief of actual suffering continues to require the application of ordinary human feeling and compassion, known in English as bedside manner.

How does a depression medicine work for anxiety?

A. They go hand in hand. You get anxious about something and after some time it becomes depressed over that same thing. In both cases, when the nerve ends send messages to the next nerve thru a gap, these messages don't get there, they sort of bounce back to their origin. This is what's called a chemical imbalance in the brain. These messages are sent via chemicals 'jumping' from one nerve end to the other. If they don't get 'absorbed' by the second nerve, we become depressed and probably more anxious about more things in life.
