Fast facts on signs and symptoms

  • A light headache can only ever be a symptom because no one else can observe it.
  • Medical symptoms are split into chronic, relapsing, and remitting.
  • An example of a medical sign is high blood pressure, as it can be measured and observed by another person.
  • Anthony van Leuwenhoek invented the microscope in 1674, forever changing the face of diagnostic tools.

The key difference between signs and symptoms is who observes the effect.

  • If the patient notices the rash, it is a symptom.
  • If the doctor, nurse, or anyone other than the patient notices the rash, it is a sign.
  • If both the patient and doctor notice the rash, it can be classed as both a sign and a symptom.

Regardless of who notices that a system or body part is not functioning normally, signs and symptoms are the body’s ways of letting a person know that not everything is running smoothly. Some signs and symptoms need follow-up by a medical professional, while others may completely resolve without treatment.
