The key difference between signs and symptoms is who observes the effect. For example, a rash could be a sign, a symptom, or both. 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. 3, record 2, English, - symptom
