When to Seek Care:
You should see a health care provider if you experience:
- A fever that does not improve or gets worse
- Persistent or severe pain
- Difficulty breathing
- A wound that is not healing or is oozing pus
- Symptoms lasting longer than expected or worsening over time
If you suspect a bacterial infection, schedule an appointment with a health care provider. Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent complications and promote faster recovery.
