What happens during physicals?
The beginning of your physical exams focuses on gathering routine data like your heart rate, temperature, and blood pressure. This information goes into your personal medical record, which is a living document that becomes an invaluable resource over time.
Expect a brief check of other health markers, including:
- Skin
- Reflexes
- Strength
- Flexibility
- Breathing function
- Vision and hearing
- Basic neurological function
Injury and Health Urgent Care also offers women’s health exams, which focus on screening for common women’s health issues and providing advice on age-relevant topics, like birth control and menopause.
