HEALTH AND WELLNESS CHECKS - MEN'S EDITION

Dear men- we love you and want you around longer in great health
We know you are macho 😀 but please consider these tests as a token for your future health

It is time to normalize living a good quality HEALTHY life and one of the ways is to invest in annual tests

Here are the major tests we recommend for men.

Extra Tests to consider

Blood Pressure Screening - checked at least twice a year from age 20, or for those with conditions like obesity that put them at increased risk for hypertension, an annual check is required.

Lung Screenings
Lung cancer is the most preventable of all cancers. Ninety percent of the time, it is found in people who smoke. The rest are typically people with a genetic predisposition to developing it or people who’ve been exposed to secondhand smoke or caustic chemicals.

An annual chest X-ray is not recommended as a screening tool except if you are a smoker.

Testicular self-exam
Check their testicles often. A self-exam is simple and quick. Gently roll each testicle between your thumb and fingers, feeling for any abnormal lumps. If you do feel a lump, talk to your doctor without delay.

Full physical exam
Now is a good time to touch base with your doctor about your health and preventive screening. It is also the time to give updates on your medical history and receive a thorough all-over exam.

These tests can be done in any reputable diagnostics center.
