Knowing when to see a General Practitioner (GP) can be a confusing decision for many people. It's easy to feel unsure about whether your symptoms are serious enough to warrant a doctor's visit or if it's something that will resolve on its own. A significant number of individuals delay seeing a GP, thinking they can manage their symptoms themselves, but in some cases, delaying medical care can lead to complications or worsen the problem. On the other hand, visiting a doctor unnecessarily can lead to wasted time and resources. Striking the right balance is key. Understanding when to seek medical attention can prevent small issues from becoming serious and provide you with the guidance necessary for maintaining your health.
