Health experts emphasize importance of preventive screenings

Medical professionals emphasize the critical importance of regular health screenings, noting that early detection is a key factor in successful treatment outcomes, particularly for breast cancer. Experts highlight that the absence of symptoms is not a reason to skip screenings, as the primary goal is to identify diseases before they manifest physically. Mammography remains the gold standard for breast cancer screening.

In Erdőkertes, a local health day is scheduled for October 30 to promote preventive care. The event will offer various screenings, including blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, and bone density tests. Additionally, free vision tests and lung screenings will be available, alongside educational lectures on physical therapies and microcirculation.
