If you think you have measles you should contact a healthcare provider by phone and let them know you may have been exposed to measles. They will let you know when to visit their office in order to not expose others in the waiting area.
If you do not have a health care provider, you may need to be seen at your local hospital emergency room or urgent care center. You are asked to call before going to let them know you may have measles.
