To be ready to react correctly in the event of a health problem this summer, consider downloading the Sympto Check mobile application, the first symptom analysis and medical referral service accessible from your smartphone.
A doctor in your smartphone
On vacation, no one is safe from a cut, a snake bite, a burn, sunstroke or indigestion … To know how to react in these cases, one of the leaders in e-health in France, Santé Assistance, has just launched its mobile application, Sympto Check, available on iOS and Android.
Thanks to this application, you will be able to know if what has happened to you is serious, what to do and when. In less than 3 minutes, after providing your age, gender and some information about your state of health (if you are pregnant or on medication), you will know if you need to go to the doctor or not.
More than 500 symptoms and 1000 referenced pathologies
Over 500 symptoms and 1,000 pathologies have been referenced by Santé Assistance, with the help of specialists, general practitioners and emergency physicians. So you have a good chance of understanding what is happening to you and what to do in such circumstances. If in doubt, do not hesitate, go to a doctor or the nearest pharmacy.
Created 15 years ago, the Health Insurance service is constantly enriched and has been used more than 10 million times to identify a pathology. Over the past 12 months, more than 1 million Internet users have visited the site. “With the porting of Sympto Check on a smartphone, we wanted to allow its use in all circumstances and to simplify it”, believes Henri-Michel Tranchimand, co-founder of Santé Assistance. An essential tool to download as soon as possible!
