I'll admit, I generally avoid going to the doctor if at all possible. I know this isn't a very good idea, and that -- regardless of the time lost, money spent, and personal discomfort -- it's generally better to be safe than sorry when it comes to comes to my personal health.

However, I have the feeling that I'm not alone. So, for people like us, here's a handy little device that'll help to keep us safe while we "walk it off."

The Aranz Medical Silhouette PDA allows even the novice user to record how a wound is healing in a consistent manner, by taking laser-guided photographs of your burn, cut, or funky-looking lesion. Then, as the wound heals over time, the device creates a Wound Measurement Report, which you can use to track progress.

Hopefully you're not injured enough to need something like this, but just in case you're accident-prone, it might be worth checking out.
