If men's health falls into these misunderstandings, diseases will never go away!

Nowadays, men don’t like to see doctors. They just put it off when they are sick. Moreover, they still have misunderstandings about physical health. Here are some misunderstandings about health among modern men:

Myth 1: Seeing a doctor is more terrible than having cancer

Professor Crawford said: "Many men don't like doctors, or even fear seeing doctors, and don't have regular physical examinations on time. In fact, many diseases are delayed." He suggested that men over 40 should understand their family medical history and regularly check important organs such as the prostate. Early detection of diseases and early treatment can achieve good results.

Myth 2: Only women experience midlife crisis

Doctors say that men also face middle-aged changes in their bodies, including lower hormone levels, reduced muscle mass, and osteoporosis. The medical community is now developing methods for hormone treatment for men. Although this treatment is just beginning, it has positive significance for men to maintain their energy, improve work efficiency, and maintain family stability.

Myth 3: It’s too early to worry about heart disease

Doctors believe that heart and arterial disease may actually begin in young people, and when symptoms such as shortness of breath become apparent after age 50, the condition is already very serious. Men should maintain a normal weight, keep cholesterol levels low and exercise regularly when they are young.

Myth 4: Not afraid of sunlight

According to a survey by the American Cancer Society, the incidence of skin cancer among men is very high because they do not pay attention to the use of sunscreen. Doctors recommend that men over 40 years old should apply high-factor sunscreen when in strong sunlight.

Myth 5: Dental disease is a minor issue

More and more studies have found that there is a certain connection between periodontal disease and heart disease. Oral infection increases blood viscosity and reduces blood supply to the heart. Therefore, it is very important to maintain dental hygiene and prevent dental diseases.

Myth 6: Lifting weights is all there is to exercise

Health doctors say that lifting weights is a good exercise, but it is not the whole content of exercise. Aerobic exercise is more effective in ensuring heart and muscle health and increasing body flexibility.
