Symptoms

The word symptom is derived from a Greek word meaning "something that has befallen one." A symptom is usually considered to be an abnormal sensation that is perceived by the patient , in contrast to a physical sign that can be seen , felt,or heard by the examiner.

Time and circumstances of onset  Characters of symptoms  Cause of diease  Duration and development  Concomitant symptoms  Treament  General data: consciousness ,weight loss ,urine, bowel Movement,etc 







Question the patient until sufficient details are obtained to categorize the symptom. Do not accept vague complaints such as "I don't feel well. " If the patient complains of weakness , ascertain if she is weak in one or more muscle groups or if she experiences lassitude , malaise,or myalgia.

 

When a patient says she is dizzy inquire if she feels weak and unstable or if her surroundings seem to whirl about,as in vertigo. Determine whether dyspnea occurs at rest or with exertion.
