Because of my identity, it is reasonable to say that it is convenient for me to have a physical examination, and everyone can think of it. But I really didn't have a physical examination. Everyone will say, don't your hospitals or doctors advocate regular physical examinations?
When I say I don't have many physical examinations, I mean what some people call routine physical examinations. The same project every year, some projects are really going through the motions. I prefer a targeted physical examination based on everyone. People will say, we don't know? Then consult a doctor, and the annual inspection should be focused.
I found in the hospital or physical examination department that many people come for physical examination year after year, but their health does not improve year after year. I once asked, do you know what the purpose of physical examination is? I have asked many medical examiners this question, but most of them can't answer it. Here I reiterate my answer: I said that the purpose of physical examination is nothing more than two. One is to treat the disease early, and the other is to prevent it before it happens.
It is easy for everyone to understand that early treatment of illness; The most important thing, prevention before illness, has not been taken seriously. To give a common example, for example, some people find hypertension, hyperlipidemia, fatty liver and so on every physical examination. And after each physical examination, doctors or reports have tips on how to prevent it. Most people throw away their reports and still go their own way in life. What's the use of doing such a physical examination?
Under the guidance of the above personal views, I pay more attention to my own improvement. I used to drink at work, drinking a lot, or white wine; I always find reasons to say that I am busy and have no time to exercise. Results I just turned 50 years old, with high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia, fatty liver and abnormal liver function. After that, I completely gave up liquor, insisted on daily exercise, and paid more attention to my diet than in the past. More than ten years have passed, and all the above physical conditions are normal.
Speaking of which, let's talk about what I said before: no physical examination. You may have guessed. In addition, I have a purely personal point of view, that is, since physical examination is for prevention. And I have paid great attention to my life now. If there are any new problems in the physical examination, you need to pay more attention. What's the point of my living?
This view is just a family view, don't follow suit!
It is a good thing for the elderly to have a free physical examination every year. Why are some people unwilling to participate? What is the reason for it
At present, for the elderly over 65 years old, a community hospital will choose routine physical examination according to the specific age symptoms, that is, routine screening of blood routine, liver and kidney function, blood sugar, blood lipid and electrocardiogram. These screenings are scientific designs for the elderly, especially those over 65. If checked in time, early screening of primary diseases and diseases may be found in time, but some elderly people are unwilling to participate. What is the reason? There may be the following reasons.
1. I don't know enough. Some old people may feel that they are in good health, have never had any diseases to eat or sleep, and have no uncomfortable symptoms. These unnecessary physical examinations have added a lot of unnecessary burdens to themselves.
2. I'm afraid to check out the disease. Most elderly people do not recommend physical examination for fear of finding out a series of problems and then need further examination. If it is serious, you may get further treatment, so you are afraid, so it is not recommended to have a physical examination.
Routine physical examination is of little use. It is said that elderly patients with chronic hypertension and diabetes may have to be hospitalized for a long time, and these painless examinations have no special significance for these patients. This kind of inspection consciousness is a bit disgusting.
In fact, there are family doctors in every community now, especially in every family. They will regularly follow up and have regular physical examinations according to whether the elderly have basic diseases at ordinary times. In fact, this view of the elderly is wrong, because even if you don't have much problem, you can screen out myocardial ischemia, mild pre-diabetes and pre-hypertension in time. If these diseases are controlled in time before diagnosis, the disease will not progress. On the other hand, if you take chronic diseases for a long time, the liver and kidney function will be damaged, so timely physical examination can also find the side effects of drugs on the body and adjust the dose in time. The side effects of drugs, the negative harm to an organ of the body, are not worth the candle. This kind of free medical examination is a policy given by the state. Why not make full use of such a good policy?
I am an old man, too. Many classmates and colleagues of this age have mentioned the annual physical examination. For example, when I go to work, the unit has a fixed project to go to the physical examination every year. If there is no project, I will not do it myself. Usually, some diseases are not within the scope of physical examination. There is basically no significance of physical examination after retirement. Always feel that what else can the body check? Others think that once it is detected, it will increase the burden on the heart. What should I do? I'll just talk about the importance of annual physical examination to health, whether it's free or with my own money. It is very meaningful to find physical problems and adjust them in time through two points (1, annual physical examination).
2. Physical examination can prevent the development of family diseases and reduce unnecessary worries and negative emotions.
1, it is very meaningful to find physical problems in time in the annual physical examination and adjust them in time.
Every organ of the body is a fighting team, so our health means that the commander knows the body "know yourself and know yourself, and fight every battle." This is what I did for the physical examination. My parents died of cancer, but our bodies may all have genetic factors. For example, my father died of hepatobiliary cancer. After my father died, all our brothers and sisters had a hepatobiliary index examination, and found that blood lipids and cholesterol were generally high. One brother had a bad liver, especially his sister's cholesterol was twice as high as that of normal people. Therefore, with the inspection index, we can adjust according to the physical problems, because I am relatively young, and I was only 35 when my father died. Then adjust the diet and exercise mode, and the blood lipid will soon return to normal. Due to more attention to life and diet, blood lipids and cholesterol have been healthy for decades.
My mother died of lung cancer. Compared with our lungs, it is basically bronchiectasis. My mother 16 years old smokes and has several brothers and sisters. So we pay more attention to this aspect through physical examination. Therefore, when the seasons alternate, we pay attention to colds every day. Decades have passed and we are in good health.
The younger brother and sister found that uric acid was high, so we studied what caused the high blood acid. Because I study nutrition and medicine, I pay more attention to the laws of diet and life. Only my blood acid value is normal and my brothers and sisters are high, so we found the root cause from the family diet. We were all born in the 1940s and 1950s. At that time, food was scarce and protein was scarce. My mother's relatives have farmers and send us a lot of soybeans every year. Mother uses beans to make all kinds of food. I remember that we have bean food almost every day, and my brother and sister have a lot of fish and meat, so they all have high uric acid. Then we began to plan our diet, eat less beans and high-purine foods, and control high uric acid is more effective.
Regular physical examination began at the age of 48. At that time, uterine fibroids were frequent, so I had regular physical examination. With the increase of age, hepatic hemangioma and renal cyst were found through physical examination, and the mother was a familial thyroid tumor. Then, I also did this examination and found that there were multiple thyroid nodules. Therefore, paying more attention to diet and life will limit development. This is my physical examination report over the years, and I have mastered the first-hand information of my current physical condition every time.
2. Physical examination can prevent the development of family diseases and reduce unnecessary worries and negative emotions.
At present, physical examination is conducted every year to measure the physical condition during this period. This is the medical report. Normal blood indexes indicate that my body is relatively stable at this stage and I can live a happy old age with peace of mind.
This physical examination report has sublimated my awareness of health management. There was a short story when it was reported. Because all the indicators are normal, the hospital feels incredible. I thought the testing instrument was broken, so I did it again manually, and it was still normal. Then call me and ask me what I do. I said it was the health industry. They say so. Your health is so good that young people can't compare with it. This is when I was 55 years old.
Kidney calculi, for example, was found to have sediment in an inspection and found that she had been studying abroad for a long time. In order to avoid going to the toilet often, she limited her water consumption, and her body issued an alarm, so I adjusted her daily water consumption and corresponding exercise pattern in time. Go to the hospital three times, and kidney calculi will disappear. Therefore, I also pay more attention to life problems, and there is no problem in the inspections in recent years.
Parents died of cancer. We can know the potential factors of our body in time and reduce unnecessary worries by checking eight indicators of cancer screening every year. In life, there are also some people who have physical problems, don't go to the hospital for examination, and think wildly, which has a great influence on their healthy emotions and will lead to health problems over time.
Through the annual physical examination to understand the physical condition at this stage, we can find targeted screening items from the high-risk diseases found in this age group. I think it is very meaningful. Facing the complex body, physical examination is also a scientific target detection to predict the body, discover potential health problems in time, increase the significance of health care, scientifically manage health and increase the confidence of the elderly in life.
First, "if you don't check, there is nothing wrong with it. Check it out. You're all sick. If you can't cure it, don't make trouble for yourself and your children. " This is a typical ostrich mentality. You are afraid of trouble now, and you and your family may have more trouble in the future.
Second, "it's not a big event that can't be detected by physical examination. If the real big event can't be detected, it's also a vain investigation." Physical examination is not everything, but it is absolutely impossible without physical examination.
Third, "I just finished my examination last year, and there is no problem. If you have something to check together, you can take care of the medical examination. " What I want to say is: go to the hospital if there are symptoms, and go to the physical examination if there are no symptoms. Please don't put the cart before the horse.
4' I am in good health and feel nothing wrong. Physical examination is looking for trouble. "In fact, our feelings may be true, but they are often unreliable, both for people and things, especially for diseases. Because, when health is in danger, from minor danger to major danger, from sub-health, early pathological changes to the formation of diseases, it takes a time and a process, and we often don't realize it most of the time, but once we realize it, it is too late. .......
Whether you are yourself or your relatives, if you are unfortunately entangled in chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, hepatitis, gastroenteropathy, asthma, kidney disease, etc. , is a nuisance. Even if it is temporarily relieved after careful treatment, as we all know, remission does not mean once and for all. Some diseases, such as hypertension and hyperglycemia, can also bring you complications. Therefore, you need regular physical examination, so as to adjust the relevant treatment plan in time according to the progress and changes of the disease. According to big data statistics, the total number of chronic diseases in China is as high as 260 million, of which more than 65% is the labor force aged 18-59. Deaths caused by chronic diseases account for 85% of the total deaths, of which 75% are premature deaths.
Entering old age, the body has entered an eventful autumn, and the prevalence of various diseases has increased significantly. Therefore, for middle-aged people over 50 years old, the interval between examinations should be shortened to about half a year, preferably twice a year. Especially for the elderly over 60, the time interval should be about 3-4 months. The examination project is presided over by a doctor familiar with your health condition, providing comprehensive and systematic health care guidance for your health. Old people should never have the mentality of "fear of inspection" for fear of causing trouble to their children. In fact, the more afraid they are, the more trouble they may bring to their children.
Health is not easy, and cherish it!
I wish my old friends a long and healthy life!
Live healthily, live happily and live with quality!
With the improvement of people's material living standards, many places now carry out free physical examination activities for the elderly. Physical examination, as a means of health examination, has many advantages, such as early detection, prevention and treatment of certain diseases, better reducing the prevalence rate and improving the quality of life. However, some elderly people are unwilling to participate, and feel that there is nothing uncomfortable and there is no need for an examination. What do you think of the physical examination? Let's talk about my opinion.
Now our material life has improved a lot, and many "rich diseases" have followed. Many places provide free check-ups for the elderly for the health of residents, but some elderly people are unwilling to go. It may be due to the following reasons: 1) Some people feel that they are in good health, there is no need to do some tests, and they are unwilling to go for a physical examination. 2) Some people are psychologically uncomfortable and feel that abnormal physical examination results will have a bad psychological impact on themselves. 3) Some elderly people are afraid of putting a burden on their children, and feel that it's okay not to check. All of them are sick after checking, and later treatment is more expensive. 4) There may still be many people who don't believe in the free medical examination, think that they are selling medical devices, or don't believe in the examination results. All of the above may be a misunderstanding of the physical examination, so I don't want to go to the physical examination.
As children, we all hope that the elderly at home will be healthy and disease-free and disaster-free, but with the growth of age, the prevalence of various organs of the body will increase significantly. Although they don't feel sick, the disease may have come quietly. In this way, it is necessary to arrange regular physical examinations for the elderly at home, so that everyone can rest assured that nothing is wrong. Even if there is a problem, it can be found and treated as soon as possible. Therefore, the elderly must not have the mentality of being afraid of exams, for fear of causing trouble to their children. Our annual physical examination is a must!
Don't want to take a free medical examination? I think there may be the following reasons.
Pay attention to Dr. Intimate Blue and learn more about the heart.
First, I am worried that such a medical examination has no practical significance. Some organizations distributed leaflets to the community, saying that the elderly over 60 years old were given free medical examinations. In fact, the physical examination project is very simple, which is nothing more than measuring height, weighing, measuring blood pressure and blood sugar, and occasionally adding a blood routine and liver function. In other words, these items are reliable. Height and weight are easy to measure and more reliable. It is not difficult to measure blood sugar. Put out your finger and squeeze a drop of blood to check your blood sugar. The emphasis is on the measurement of blood pressure. Many institutions promise to take your blood pressure for free, but only promise to take your blood pressure. They don't pay much attention to the precautions of measuring blood pressure. For example, rest for more than 5 minutes before measuring blood pressure. Anyway, when you come over, raise your arm and measure your blood pressure with an inflatable cuff. Sometimes it seems like going through the motions.
The second is trouble and a waste of time. Some institutions give you a free physical examination, not to say that you will do it as soon as you come. Sometimes you have to wait in a long queue for a long time and listen to a lot of advertisements. There are not many physical examination items, and I feel that I can't take advantage of it.
Third, I am worried about being cheated. There is no such thing as a free dinner. You need to fill in a lot of information during the physical examination, including address, ID number, telephone number and even the information of the child. Because of participating in these free projects, it is not uncommon to be deceived.
Fourth, I am worried that there is something wrong with the physical examination. There is an idiom called "fear of medicine". I always feel that there is nothing wrong with being able to eat and sleep now. In case the physical examination shows hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia, it will be in trouble. If you really want to find out the problem, you have to spend money to treat it, and you are distressed by money.
Suggestion: Physical examination is very important, and some problems can be found early. Free physical examination, it is best to identify which institutions are organized. With the national economy getting better and better, it is indeed possible that some local governments can provide free physical examinations for the elderly, while those who have other purposes, such as selling products, are not pure from the beginning, and the content of physical examinations is unreliable and hard to say.
In fact, the national physical examination has been carried out for several years. Even in remote rural areas, the village will send people to the villagers for regular physical examination. Since it is free, many people will listen to the arrangement of the village and go to the physical examination. But there are also some elderly people who are unwilling to have a physical examination. Why?
1. Afraid of causing trouble to children: when an old man is old, there will always be some minor ailments and pains, and those who can bear it will generally bear it. However, if they really find out any big problems during the physical examination, they will worry about dragging down their children and have a particularly heavy psychological burden.
2. The body is very troublesome: some elderly people are physically strong and too lazy to do it when they want to queue up for a medical examination.
3. I think physical examination is useless: some physical examinations are really a formality, and general indicators such as measuring blood pressure and weighing are finished. And like some people with certain diseases, such as cataracts, light screening is useless. The problem is that there is no money for surgery.
Physical examination is a national measure to benefit the people, of course, for everyone's health. Although there may be some shortcomings, it has greatly improved the health level of the people as a whole. As a surgeon, I will meet many cancer patients in my work. I still suggest that if there is a problem, check it as soon as possible. If I find it early, I can treat it early, and the treatment effect and the quality of life of patients will be higher.
Free physical examination is really a good thing for the country and the people. Today, I will popularize the knowledge about regular physical examination.
At present, the state and government are very concerned about and attach great importance to the problems of the elderly. The annual free physical examination for the elderly is one of the important contents, and the expenses are paid by the state and the government. Why doesn't someone want to go to such a good thing? According to my personal analysis, nothing more than the following reasons:
1, when you get old, everyone will have a general understanding of your body. If there is a problem, there is no problem.
2. I have doubts about the medical examination procedure, because the medical examination is free and centralized, and there are many people, ranging from tens to hundreds. Whether the doctor did his duty during the physical examination or went through the motions.
3, this kind of physical examination is generally in small hospitals, and the qualifications of doctors are relatively low. The medical equipment and facilities in the hospital are relatively old, and some of them may still be old, so they are not at ease about the quality of physical examination. Others are afraid that the doctor will turn a minor illness into a serious illness.
4. Some old people usually feel that their health is OK, but when they are examined, the doctor says that it is not good here and there, which invisibly increases their ideological burden.
You know, a person's body is like a machine. Even if it is well maintained, it will not break down after 60 or 70 years of use. I had nothing to worry about, but I was a little worried when I checked. Isn't that asking for trouble? It's best not to disturb yourself.
This may be the reason why some elderly people are unwilling to have a physical examination.
As young people, we all hope that our parents, grandparents and grandparents will live a long and healthy life. Therefore, many filial children now begin to arrange a health check-up for their parents every year. However, some friends seem to have found such a problem. The old man is very uncooperative and unwilling to have a health check-up. The reasons given are varied. So what is the reason why they don't want a medical examination? Dr. zhang summed it up and shared it with you.
First of all, we should know the benefits of physical examination. In fact, the most important advantage of physical examination is that it can detect diseases early, and then it can be diagnosed and treated early. Undoubtedly, for most diseases, the prognosis of early detection and treatment must be much better than that of late detection and treatment. For example, for essential hypertension, if it can be found and treated early, the quality of life of patients will not be significantly affected, but if it is not found and treated, it may cause serious damage to heart, brain and kidney function, and even death and disability. In addition, physical examination can also find some risk factors of diseases, so as to realize early intervention, such as Helicobacter pylori. If the physical examination is positive, it is recommended to do clearing treatment to avoid serious situations such as digestive tract ulcer and gastric cancer in the future.
What are the reasons why the elderly are unwilling to have a physical examination?
1. The old man is worried about spending money. Our parents have worked hard all their lives, knowing that it is not easy to make money, and they all want to spend it on their children. Therefore, they don't want to spend money on their own health check-ups, even for their children. In fact, this is really saving money. I really got seriously ill and spent too much money.
The old man is worried that he will find out the disease. Some old friends always say, "I'm in good health, I'm not sick, and I don't need a physical examination." In fact, they are afraid of finding out the disease in their hearts. Not only do patients have a serious psychological burden, but they are also worried that it will cost money to treat diseases.
3. Have the experience of being cheated. We don't deny that health check-ups have developed rapidly in China, but a few people use the gimmick of health check-ups to cheat people and cheat money. For example, they take a small machine to do some random inspection (which is definitely inaccurate), get a messy result, tell the old people what's wrong, and then start selling their health care products and cheat the old people of their money. After the old man was cheated, he no longer believed in physical examination.
4. The experience of previous physical examination may be unpleasant. There are two aspects: on the one hand, the attitude of medical staff is blunt or the medical examination procedures are too complicated, which has left a bad impression on the elderly; On the other hand, the elderly may feel uncomfortable during physical examination. For example, when doing abdominal ultrasound, especially when the ultrasound probe slides on his stomach, it may make him feel more painful and uncomfortable.
5. I didn't realize the importance of physical examination. Many times, old people think they know their physical condition very well. They don't need a physical examination when they are sick, just look at their feelings. Actually, it's not like this. In the early days, we didn't feel anything unusual, and we could only find it through inspection.
Therefore, to sum up what Dr. Zhang said, I hope everyone will pay attention to physical examination and do a good job according to the situation of the elderly. Finally, Dr. Zhang reminds everyone that the health check-up still suggests that you go to a reliable hospital or medical examination institution.
