Day 3 Wellness Action: Schedule Your Next Physical
Many people put off going for their check-up out of fear or for lack of time and by the time an illness occurs it’s already far advanced or worse, too late to treat.
Annual health check ups are very useful in establishing your baseline medical history to which to compare future health status. They can also save your life because with a consistent annual check up, you are more likely to detect the early stage of an illness when interventions are most effective.
