What should I do if my symptoms persist or worsen after treatment?
If your symptoms persist or worsen after treatment, it is crucial to take the following steps:
Contact DrHouse Customer Support: Reach out to DrHouse customer support to inform them about your ongoing or worsening symptoms. DrHouse customer support can provide guidance and assist in coordinating further care.
Follow-Up Consultation: Start a follow-up telehealth consultation with a DrHouse healthcare provider to discuss your persistent or worsening symptoms. The healthcare provider can reassess your condition and recommend additional steps. Please get in touch with DrHouse customer support to schedule a follow-up visit.
Seek In-Person Care: If advised by the DrHouse healthcare provider or if your symptoms are severe, consider seeking in-person care from a local healthcare facility, urgent care center, or hospital.
Emergency Care: If you experience severe symptoms or a medical emergency, seek immediate medical attention by calling emergency services or visiting the nearest emergency room.
It’s important to communicate openly with your DrHouse or in-person healthcare providers to understand your health status comprehensively and to receive appropriate care based on your evolving condition.
