Which Situations are Ripe for Consulting a Doctor Online?



While physical visits are still quite important for diagnosing certain diseases, online consultations have gained popularity in recent years. There are many advantages of getting an online consultation, including saving time, convenience, and cost. 

However, it can be difficult to determine if an online consultation is a right option for you. So, here are a few times when you should opt for an online consultation instead of a physical one. 

1. If you need your prescription 

If you have a chronic condition that requires a regular prescription, there is no need for a physical visit. Online consultation with your doctor is enough for renewing the prescription. The doctor can send you the prescription via e-mail as well. 

2. If you’re on vacation 

If you are away from your home but need to consult your doctor urgently, online consultation is the best choice. Your doctor may provide a solution to the problem, or he may ask you to see a local doctor for better treatment. 

3. For minor medical issues 

If you have a minor medical issue that can be resolved using over the counter medication, you don’t need to go in for a physical visit at the doctor’s office. You can consult the doctor online to be sure so that there is no mistake. 

4. If you’re worried about infections

If you are immunocompromised due to a recent illness, surgery or medications, there is a high chance that you will get an infection from the doctor’s office. So, in such a case, online consultation is much safer.  

To conclude 

Online consultations are private, safe and completely confidential, just like a regular doctor’s visit. So, if you need to talk to a doctor but cannot go for a visit right away, online consultations are a great option for you. 

You can find doctors from all over India for online consultation on the Bajaj Finserv Health website. For more details please visit our website https://www.bajajfinservhealth.in/
