Why is treatment done earlier than admission?
Sometimes, when a case is urgent and vital, hospitals may proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalization of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts.
That's why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

Background
Mikal loves to dance whenever there is an opportunity to; if there is no music around she will sing the song. Second born in the family, he lives with the mother and her siblings. Presented to the hospital with loss of appetite, headache and cough.
Medical history
Mikal was admitted to the hospital due to a lack of appetite and complaints of headache, coughing, and a skin rash. After diagnosis, he was found to have an upper respiratory tract infection. He received treatment with Amoxil, Paracetamol, and Cetrizine. Now feeling better, Mikal has been discharged and is permitted to return home.
Outcome
If an upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) is not treated, it can weaken the immune system and the body's natural defenses. This can make it easier for other infections, such as bacterial sinusitis or ear infections, to develop as secondary complications. If the URTI is caused by a contagious virus (e.g., the common cold or influenza), untreated individuals can continue to spread the infection to others, potentially leading to outbreaks in close-contact settings like schools or workplaces.
