When is it not an emergency?

Complaints that you have been experiencing for some time or that are not serious can wait until your own doctor can be reached again. Think of mild pain, a slight fever or an already known complaint that does not suddenly worsen.

What can you do then?

• Take a painkiller and see if the symptoms decrease.
• If you have a fever, first measure your temperature.
• Visit thuisarts.nl for reliable information about complaints. This website has been developed by general practitioners.
