👉 Watching for signs of infection involves actively monitoring your body for any indicators that suggest an illness or infection has begun. This includes observing changes in temperature, such as fever, feeling unusually cold or sweaty; noticing redness, swelling, or warmth at specific sites like lymph nodes or after a skin injury; and tracking any unusual discharge from the eyes, nose, or ears. Additionally, watch for symptoms like persistent cough, sore throat, difficulty breathing, nausea, vomiting, or unexplained fatigue, as these can be early signs of infections. Regularly checking for wounds or cuts to ensure they are healing properly and reporting any signs of infection to a healthcare provider promptly is also crucial for effective management and treatment.
