A health screening is basically a periodic evaluation of one's body system to assess the state of health with the use of tests, physical examinations or other procedures. Examination techniques can range from a physical examination to a series of blood tests.
Why should I go for a health screening?
Health screening can help to detect many possible underlying conditions, even when you are feeling well without any signs or symptoms. Early detection of most conditions will allow you to seek early treatment and will increase the likelihood of taking control of your health and getting better outcomes.
How often should you have a health screening?
Health screening needs will vary according to different individuals. Each individual may have higher risk factors due to a known family history of a certain condition. You should consult your family doctor to assess the needs of a health screening thoroughly to fully evaluate your options.
As a general thumb of rule, we advise individuals above 40 years of age to do a health screening annually.
