Explanation

In the field of medicine, "presentation" refers to the set of symptoms or conditions that a patient shows when they first seek medical help. It's like the story that the patient's body is telling about what might be wrong. For example, a person might present with a high fever, cough, and difficulty breathing, which could suggest a respiratory infection. Doctors use this initial information to start figuring out what the disease or problem might be.
