Do I Really Need A Basic Health Screening?

by Mohit J. White Hat Link Building Services

There is a lot of talk, especially in the past year, about access to medication and health screenings. In many parts of the world, access to medicine and treatments aren’t as readily-accessible as they should be, given we’re talking about the first world here. In the Third World, it’s no surprise that a great number of the population don’t have access to the treatment, screenings and medications they need. But what about places like the United States, or more topically here, Singapore?

Finding a health screening clinic in Singapore that was readily affordable used to be quite a challenge. Unlike the United States, however, modern Singapore is a place that actually does strive to make the lives of its people livable, regardless of their income level.

In this beautiful, modern nation, small as we may be, we have a lot going for us that will make many parts of the world rather envious. Aside from our stereotypical lack of vandalism and litter, we also post some of the most easy access imaginable to health services and medications. Health clinics are all over the place here, and a great many of them will give you a screening, at Apsley no immediate cost to you. How many other countries can boast this? Well, the EU can, but a lot of the free world? Not quite!

The question is, if you’ve been fortunate enough to receive the vaccine against the coronavirus, and you think that you are otherwise in perfectly good health, do you still need to get a basic health screening?

The stress of the pandemic…

So, the first thing to note is that this pandemic has put everyone under a great deal of stress. Even if the financial struggles haven’t stressed you, the job security issues haven’t stressed you, then the isolation will. Even if you’re not a social person, or otherwise somebody known to go out and do things when you don’t need to, the lack of normality, which you will perceive even subconsciously, will have unforeseen side effects on your biology. Your sleep won’t be as good, your digestion won’t be as good, really your entire body won’t function the way it really should.

As a result, latent symptoms of minor, heading towards major issues may reveal themselves. You are far better off heading the symptoms often the past, and identifying these issues before they become perceptible.

The unpredictability of the human body…

The other big thing is, since you have access to a basic health screening at no cost to you, you should have it done every six months. If you talk to anyone who is fortunate enough to work for a company that provides health benefits, they will tell you that they get a checkup every six months, a year at the latest. Thus, they identify problems early on, and with certain issues such as potential cancers or other major biological failures, this can be a life or death thing to catch them early.

Pre-much any health screening clinic Singapore will accept you as a walk-in if there is time available, see may not even need to set up an appointment. At the end of the day, your health is important, and you are worth a lot as a human being, and you truly are irreplaceable. Even if you don’t think so, somebody loves and cares about you, so please, get a basic health screening every six months and be sure that you stay healthy and productive for years to come.
