Flu, Cold or Infection? When to Visit a Doctor in Kempton Park
Most mild illness settles on its own. Here is when it makes sense to see a GP.
Colds, flu and other common infections often improve with rest and fluids. It is worth seeing a doctor when symptoms are severe, when they last longer than you would expect, or when they keep returning.
Speak to a GP if you are struggling to breathe, if a fever is high or persistent, if you feel worse after initially improving, or if you are unsure whether your symptoms need treatment. Infants, older adults, pregnant patients and people with chronic conditions should be assessed earlier rather than later.
A consultation lets your doctor examine you and decide whether treatment or further tests are appropriate — and reassure you when they are not.
If you are worried about symptoms, phone +27 (0)10 534 9737 during operating hours or request an appointment online.
