According to BSCKII. Nguyen Thi Hai Yen, Head of the Examination Department - Thanh Ba District Medical Center, the case of the above patient is a typical example showing the benefits of periodic health check-ups.

According to the doctor, there have been many cases where people only come to the doctor when they have unusual health symptoms. The result is often that the condition has become serious and results in cancer. This directly affects the patient's health and makes the treatment process difficult.

Through this, doctors recommend that people should have a regular health check-up every 6 months or at least once a year. Through regular check-ups, health abnormalities will be detected promptly. Diseases are intervened early, so treatment is more effective, the risk of complications is limited, and treatment costs are saved.

In addition, when you go for a health check-up, doctors will advise you on nutrition, work schedule adjustments, and lifestyle changes to eliminate risk factors and prevent disease effectively.
