Quick use

Use ねつ が あります (netsu ga arimasu) to report the symptom itself, not the diagnosis. That makes it a safe phrase to say at the hospital or clinic.

Chunk or pattern

  • Base pattern: 〜 が / あります
  • Swap the part for the person, place, item, or detail you need.

Helper words and endings

  • ます: is a polite verb ending.

Practical note

Short symptom lines are easier for staff to catch than long explanations. After this, you can add timing like きのう からです or strength like つよいです.
