List any three reasons why you would think that you are sick and ought to see a doctor. If only one of these symptoms were present would you still go to the doctor? Why not?

Common symptoms, which indicate sickness are:

(i) Headache,

(ii) Cough and

(iii) Loose motion.

Yes, even if only one symptom is present, I would still visit a doctor.

A single symptom can be an early sign of a serious disease. Delaying treatment might allow the illness to worsen. For example:

• A headache might indicate meningitis or high blood pressure.
• A persistent cough could lead to lung infections or pneumonia.
• Diarrhea can cause severe dehydration, which may be life-threatening.
