Understanding care
Clinical care may include individual risk discussion, diagnostic assessment and consideration of monitoring or treatment. A qualified clinician decides which investigations and options fit the individual situation.
When to seek help
Seek prompt assessment for a persistent unexplained lump, bleeding, weight loss or other new concerning symptoms. Severe bleeding, collapse or major breathing difficulty requires emergency care.
For severe breathing difficulty, collapse, suspected stroke, or another emergency, call local emergency services immediately. In India, call 112.
