Answer:

Explanation:

If you've ever been sick and had to take medicine, you already know about one kind of drugs. Medicines are legal drugs, meaning doctors can prescribe them for patients, stores can sell them, and people are allowed to buy them. But it's not legal, or safe, for people to use these medicines any way they Cigarettes and alcohol are two other kinds of legal drugs. In the United States, adults 21 and older can buy cigarettes and alcohol. But smoking and excessive drinking are not healthy for adults, and they're off limits for kids.

Marijuana is generally an illegal drug. But some states allow doctors to prescribe it to people for some conditions, and some have passed laws making it legal to sell marijuana to adults for personal use.want or to buy them from people who are selling them illegally.

When people talk about a "drug problem," they usually mean abusing legal drugs or using illegal drugs, such as marijuana, ecstasy, cocaine, LSD, crystal meth, and heroin to get high

llegal drugs aren't good for anyone, but they are particularly bad for a kid or teen whose body is still growing. Illegal drugs can damage the brain, heart, and other important organs. Cocaine, for instance, can cause a heart attack — even in a kid or teen.

IgorC [24]
I haven't heard of PRICES method. I only know of PRICE which stands for P  - protect
R  - rest
I    - ice
C  - compress
E  - elevate

However, since we are dealing with injuries, S can stand for SPLINT. You apply a splint on injuries with broken bones. This is to ensure that the edges of the broken bones will meld and mend together without any difficulty.
