  1. Critical ER Alert -

    Your symptoms indicate an immediate need for emergency care. High-risk signs like chest pain, severe bleeding, or difficulty breathing require a direct visit to the hospital's ER. Tip: Call 911 if symptoms worsen en route.

  2. ER Trip Recommended -

    You should consider going to the ER based on your quiz results from the Should I Go to the ER quiz or the Should I Go to the Hospital quiz. Moderate symptoms such as persistent abdominal pain or sudden dizziness may need hospital evaluation. Tip: Bring a list of current medications and allergies.

  3. Doctor's Appointment Soon -

    Your results suggest scheduling a visit to your physician rather than an ER trip. Non-urgent but concerning symptoms like mild fever or lingering cough are best checked by a doctor. Tip: Book an appointment within 24 - 48 hours.

  4. Self-Care with Monitoring -

    You can manage your condition at home while keeping an eye on any changes. Mild symptoms such as slight headache or throat irritation often improve with rest and over-the-counter remedies. Tip: Use a symptom tracker and retake the Should I See a Doctor quiz if things change.

  5. Observe and Reassess -

    Your current symptoms are minimal, so continued observation is key. No immediate ER or doctor visit is needed, but staying vigilant helps catch any escalation early. Tip: Re-evaluate symptoms in 24 hours or sooner if new concerns arise.
