On my online dictionary it says 気を使う also means to take into consideration.
Does this mean be considerate ? Iv Heard it used in a way that it would mean
that but just wanted to confirm? Thanks!

気を使う meaning and example sentences
Although 使う is generally translated as "use", a more idiomatic English
translation of つかう in this case would be "pay", as in "pay attention to" or
"pay mind to".

Here are a couple of example sentences from スーパー大辞林, which actually uses a
different kanji for つかう in this phrase: 気を遣う.

  * 彼はまわりの人に気を遣った = He was attentive to those around him.

  * (私のことで)そんなに気を遣わないでください = Don't bother about me so much.
