Contexto cultural
In India, healthcare is often a family affair. Suggesting someone 'show to a doctor' is seen as an act of intimacy and care rather than an intrusion. It is very common for neighbors or even strangers to offer this advice if they see you looking unwell.
The 'Show' Logic
In Hindi, you don't 'see' a doctor (milna/dekhna). You 'show' (dikhaana) your condition to them. It's a subtle shift in who is the active observer!
Mind the Ending
Always use 'Dikhaiye' (दिखाइए) for your boss or your in-laws. Using 'Dikhao' might make them feel you are ordering them around while they are already sick.

What It Means
In Hindi, you don't 'see' a doctor; you 'show' yourself to one. डॉक्टर को दिखाओ (Doctor ko dikhao) is the standard way to suggest medical help. It implies that the doctor needs to examine your condition. It is direct, caring, and very common in daily life.
How To Use It
The phrase is quite simple to plug into sentences. You use the object को (ko) after डॉक्टर. The verb दिखाओ (dikhao) comes from देखना (to see), but in the causative form. It means 'to cause someone to see.' You are the one being seen! Just add a name or pronoun at the start if needed.
When To Use It
Use this when a friend has a nasty cough. Use it when your roommate has been sleeping all day. It works perfectly in person or over a quick WhatsApp text. If someone looks pale or tired, this is your go-to advice. It shows you are concerned about their well-being.
When NOT To Use It
Don't use दिखाओ (dikhao) with high-ranking officials or elders. It sounds a bit like a command. For them, use the respectful version दिखाइए (dikhaiye). Also, don't use it for emergencies where an ambulance is needed. This phrase is for a standard check-up or a lingering illness. It’s not for 'Call 911' moments!
Cultural Background
In Indian culture, everyone is a bit of a 'home doctor.' Before this phrase, you might hear advice about turmeric milk. But when the home remedies fail, डॉक्टर को दिखाओ is the final verdict. Indians often visit doctors without appointments for minor issues. This phrase reflects that casual but necessary transition to professional help.
Common Variations
You can swap 'doctor' for specific specialists. For example, आंखों के डॉक्टर को दिखाओ (Show to an eye doctor). You can also make it a question: क्या तुमने डॉक्टर को दिखाया? (Did you show to the doctor?). Adding चाहिए (chahiye) makes it 'You should show to a doctor,' which sounds slightly softer and more like a suggestion.
Notas de uso
The phrase is neutral-informal. Use 'dikhao' for friends and 'dikhaiye' for anyone you would address as 'Aap'. Avoid using it as a command; keep the tone suggestive and helpful.
The 'Show' Logic

Mind the Ending

The Pharmacy Shortcut
In India, people often go to a 'Chemist' (Pharmacist) first. If they say 'Doctor ko dikhao,' it means your issue is too serious for over-the-counter meds!
