What to do if the condition persists?

Sometimes you can't self-diagnose. If your condition persists, if the symptom gets worse or if the recommended treatment isn't working, it's time to seek medical attention.

If you have a fever or are feeling sicker than usual, call your doctor. If you have an open wound that is worsening or continuing to ooze blood from a cut for more than two hours, then you should go to the emergency room.

If you have a child with fever and they're less than three months old or under five years old, call your doctor immediately.

It's important to note that while many conditions can be treated at home, some require more immediate medical attention. Be sure to pay attention to how your body is doing and let it guide what course of action is right for you—knowing when to see a doctor can be just as important as knowing what to do when you get there!
