Warning Signs You Should Not Ignore

Home care has limits. These symptoms mean you should seek medical attention promptly.

Persistent Fever Over 3 Days
Fever lasting more than 72 hours in adults or any high fever in children under 5 needs medical evaluation.
Sudden Severe Headache
A “thunderclap” headache — the worst of your life — can signal a serious neurological emergency.
Difficulty Breathing
Shortness of breath at rest, laboured breathing, or bluish lips are emergency warning signs.
Chest Tightness or Pain
Any chest pain, especially with arm or jaw pain, sweating, or nausea, requires immediate emergency care.
High Blood Pressure Symptoms
Severe headache, vision changes, and nosebleed together can indicate a hypertensive crisis.
Child Not Eating or Drinking
A child who refuses fluids for more than 6–8 hours risks dehydration and needs prompt attention.
When in doubt — call your doctor. This page cannot replace emergency medical care.
