At most times, no need to go to ED, as long as you haven’t severe symptoms, it is a sympathetic treatment, you can check with your primary doctor, and check your oxygen level by pulse oximetry, a small device you can buy from any pharmacy. If you have severe symptoms, high temperature, or shortness of breath, you may need to go to ED.
