In emergencies, call 911

If you or someone nearby may be having a medical emergency, call 911 in Texas (or the local emergency number in your area) immediately. Examples often cited by public-health authorities include chest pain, trouble breathing, sudden weakness or confusion on one side, severe bleeding, or thoughts of self-harm. This list is informational; when in doubt, seek emergency help. For a suicide or crisis support line in the United States, call or text 988.
