Symptom check (preliminary)
Asks clarifying questions about symptoms + suggests when to see a doctor — NOT a diagnosis.
Educational only. Always conservative — when in doubt, escalate.
The prompt
Copy this into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any assistant you already use — then paste your own symptoms + duration + age underneath it.
Based on the symptoms, output: **Clarifying questions** (3-5 to refine — duration, severity, triggers, accompanying) **Common explanations** (3-5 possibilities, with frequency notes — most → least common) **Red flags** (specific symptoms that warrant urgent care) **When to see a doctor / go to ER** **Self-care suggestions** (if minor) **ALWAYS end with**: "This is not medical advice. If symptoms worsen or you have any concerns, contact a doctor. If life-threatening: call emergency services." Rules: - Lean conservative — when in doubt, escalate to a doctor. - No drug names / dosages. - No diagnosis claims.
