Dr Chris looks at men and their health problems
Men are notorious for failing to discuss their health problems, and for taking too long to see the doctor when they develop symptoms.This can be dangerous, and most men have little awareness of health issues in general so are poor judges of the the state of their bodies.
For instance, did you know that men can suffer from breast cancer? For more information, read this article:
Male Breast Cancer.
Strokes and heart disease in general are big killers in the male population. For information on how to tell if someone you know is having a stroke, see this article : FAST test helps diagnose strokes.
