There is actually a formal word for "to be sick" and it is "편찮으시다."
Not sure if this is explained somewhere online, but my Korean professor taught me to use this for elderly people and teachers and such. Just like "드시다" and "계시다."
"아프시다" is used as well (ex. are you hurt somewhere? > 어디 아프세요?), but I would probably choose "편찮으시다" over "아프시다," especially when it is about elderly people
