Don’t neglect your doctor’s visits during the pandemic. There are many people avoiding doctors, canceling doctor appointments, not tending to their normal check ups and screenings, vaccinations, etc. Most likely due to the pandemic, whether it’s fear of catching it or concern about even being able to get into a doctor, reports are coming out that basic healthcare is falling by the wayside.
Personal Injury Doctor Visits
In the case of a personal injury, our business, victims must get to their doctor and show they’re trying to get better. You need to make sure you follow your treatment, get to your medical exams, therapy sessions, whatever might apply for you and your case. It’s vital for your own wellness as well as your case’s.
Your Well-Being
Generally speaking you always want to be your best advocate for your own wellness and that of your family’s. I just saw a report earlier this week that said there’s concern from the healthcare community that cases of heart disease, cancers, more serious illnesses other than the coronavirus itself, are going to increase because people aren’t doing their regular screenings that would catch these types of diseases in advance.
Risk
There’s always risk with anything. Doing nothing also has risk. See your doctor or chiropractor or physical therapist. Schedule a telemedicine appointment if you have to. But go to your appointments. Follow up on important screenings, prescription refills, whatever is necessary to ensure the health long-term of your family.
