Precautions for Male Physical Examination: Several Contraindications for Health Examination

(1) Avoid abandoning inspection items at will

The examination items set in the physical examination form include basic items that reflect physical health status, as well as some special examination items for malignant and common diseases. Some tests have special significance for early detection of diseases. The detection of rectal masses is particularly important for patients over 40 years old, such as anal digital examination. Some examinees voluntarily give up the examination due to fear of trouble or shyness. If the examinee really has lesions, they naturally lose the best opportunity for treatment, and the consequences are self-evident.

(2) Avoid hastily stopping medication before physical examination

Blood collection requires fasting, but medication for chronic disease patients should be treated differently. If hypertensive patients take antihypertensive drugs every morning, it is necessary to maintain stable blood pressure. hastily stopping or delaying medication can cause a sudden increase in blood pressure and pose a risk. After taking conventional medication, blood pressure can be measured again, and the physical examination doctor can also evaluate the current blood pressure reduction plan. The impact of taking a small amount of antihypertensive drugs on the assay is mild and can be ignored. So hypertensive patients should undergo a physical examination after taking antihypertensive drugs. For patients with diabetes or other chronic diseases, they should also take medicine in time after blood collection, and should not interfere with routine treatment due to physical examination.

(3) Avoid taking blood too late

Physical examination and testing require fasting blood to be collected from 7:30 to 8:30 in the morning, and should not exceed 9:00 at the latest. Too late, due to the influence of physiological endocrine hormones in the body, blood sugar levels are distorted (although still on an empty stomach). So the subject should take blood as soon as possible and not easily miss the time.

(4) Avoid ignoring important medical history statements

Medical history, especially the history of important diseases, is an important reference for medical examination doctors to determine the health status of the subject. Based on this, intervention measures are formulated, which have an extremely important impact on the prognosis of the disease. Some examinees have a mentality of "assessing" the level of medical examination doctors, believing that diseases can only be detected through examination, not through speaking out. Little did they know that doing so often backfired. For example, before providing treatment guidance to hypertensive patients, it is necessary to understand the onset time, treatment process, medication status, and other key issues of their hypertension in order to provide targeted further treatment suggestions, including increasing or decreasing medication doses, adjusting medication varieties, etc., in order to achieve the best treatment effect. If the subject cannot remember the name of the medication they are taking at home, they can bring the medication box for identification. Medical history statements should strive to be objective and accurate, and important diseases should not be overlooked.

(5) Do not underestimate the conclusion of physical examination

The conclusion of physical examination is a summary and summary of the health status of the subject. It is a health prescription issued by doctors based on the results of various medical examinations and comprehensive analysis. It has important guiding significance for correcting bad habits, preventing and treating diseases. Some examinees attach great importance to the physical examination process, but neglect the conclusion of the examination, fail to carefully read and implement it, making the health examination meaningless.

So the subject should take blood as soon as possible and not easily miss the time.

Two taboos: hastily stopping medication before physical examination

Blood collection requires fasting, but medication for chronic disease patients should be treated differently. If hypertensive patients take antihypertensive drugs every morning, it is necessary to maintain stable blood pressure. hastily stopping or delaying medication can cause a sudden increase in blood pressure and pose a risk.

So hypertensive patients should undergo a physical examination after taking antihypertensive drugs. For patients with diabetes or other chronic diseases, they should also take medicine in time after blood collection, and should not interfere with routine treatment due to physical examination.

Three taboos: abandoning inspection items at will
