Understanding care
Clinical care may include assessment of persistent symptoms, stool testing when appropriate and clinician-directed care. A qualified clinician decides which investigations and options fit the individual situation.
When to seek help
Seek prompt advice for persistent vomiting or diarrhea, especially in infants or vulnerable people. Very little urine, unusual drowsiness, bloody stool or inability to drink needs urgent assessment.
For severe breathing difficulty, collapse, suspected stroke, or another emergency, call local emergency services immediately. In India, call 112.
