Can an online doctor treat nasal congestion or an acute upper respiratory infection (URI)?

Yes. Many cases of nasal congestion, colds, and acute URIs can be evaluated and managed via telemedicine with symptom relief strategies and, when appropriate, prescription medications.

When should I seek in-person or emergency care for cold or flu-like symptoms?

Seek urgent in-person care or an ER for trouble breathing, chest pain, high or persistent fever, confusion, severe weakness, or symptoms that rapidly worsen instead of improving.
