When to See a Doctor
You should consult a specialist if you experience persistent or worsening symptoms, if symptoms affect your quality of life, or if you have a family history of related conditions. Dr. K. Deepthi recommends scheduling a consultation proactively rather than waiting for symptoms to become severe.
“The best time to address a health concern is before it becomes a crisis. Preventive care and early intervention are always more effective — and more affordable — than treating advanced disease.”
