Sometimes, when we’re not feeling well, society turns to Dr. Google if there’s no physician to lean on. And as you will see around the World Wide Web, or even social media platforms, there isn’t a shortage of medical tips and tricks floating around.

Riley Sheldrick, the owner of Russell-based Green Thumb Tree Specialists, identifies five warnings signs that indicate you tree is screaming for help. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.
